Lani Iki rests among coffee trees and tropical flowers at a comfortable 1200-foot elevation, offering its guests a tranquil resting place graced by sweet-scented breezes and birdsong.

It’s a great place for socializing, sunning, or snoozing on one of the lounges. Enjoy cooking a tasty meal on the grill or having a soothing soak in the relaxing spa.

Map & Owner's Profile
The View from Lani Iki, Priceless!
Year Purchased: 2007
Why the Owner Chose Kealakekua Bay
Milt's parents and grandparents were born and raised on the Big Island. We were fortunate to be able to return in 2007 to this beautiful piece of paradise. When you experience the view from Lani Iki, you will understand why we named it "Little Heaven."
The Unique Benefits at this Apartment
The Big Island is "da best." There is so much to do here--swimming, snorkeling, kayaking and dolphin viewing right here on Kealakekua Bay. Nearby, there are wonderful beaches for swimming, surfing or snorkeling and many other beautiful places to explore: valleys, volcanoes, waterfalls and historical sites. Great restaurants and shopping, too! You really have to experience the ALOHA for yourself.
Owner's Map of Kealakekua Bay
We are supposed to be retired, but since we moved to our little coffee farm in Kona, we are busier than ever. Come visit and see and sample the fruits of our labor--fresh brewed 100% Kona coffee from Keala Lani Farms or fresh-picked fruit--papayas, mangoes, starfruit, pineapples, oranges, limes and much more--depending on the season, of course.
