Keolamauloa, a historic family property, was built in the 1930's and is located 37 miles north of Hilo, at the cool 1800 ft. elevation in Paauilo Mauka.
It was originally developed in the 1930’s as a coffee farm. As a center of community life, this property included a family-run general store. Japanese movies were shown in the garage to homestead families and friends. The strength and resourcefulness of this family have inspired those who followed. Even now, their children and grandchildren continue to return to the home to find rest and to remember.
The verdant pasture lands and old family homesteads are evidence of the area’s rich agricultural and cattle ranching history. Today, our family of 3 generations work and play on this small family farm and share a vision of sustainable living. We produce wholesome food for our family and the community and minimize our environmental impact by using eco-friendly practices. The grounds are abundant with native trees. Grazing sheep, chickens, and the family pet pig wallowing in the pond, are the backyard view with the ocean beyond.
The accommodation features quiet comfort with the soothing sound of small waterfalls. Guests will enjoy a private entrance, full kitchen/bathroom and 2 bedrooms – each with a double bed. A futon can be used for extra guests. Keolamauloa will welcome you home, whether you have traveled a few miles to Kalopa State Park, historic Honoka’a town and Waipio Valley, or taken a day trip to Kohala and the Kona Coast or to Hilo and the Volcano.

I have thought of you and your family so many times and what a wonderful time I had at your little paradise so often I wish I could be there to share it with your all and help on the farm with the produce and the feeding of the animals I feel a part of me was left behind.

For us, it was a great holiday in Hawaii, spending time in your farm. It was just great and we are very sure that we will back to your place in the near future. Hope everyone is doing great and your animals and vegetable are good as well. I cannot forget the stars that we saw from your garden at night while we were having spa.
