TAKE ADVANTAGE OF OUR KA`U COFFEE CAFFEINE STIMULUS PACKAGE! BOOK YOUR VACATION BY OCTOBER 31, and you get our SUPER SAVER RATE! Our vacation farm house offers a unique setting for a serene and healthy organic vacation at a truly bargain rate designed for today's economy. Our 15 acre farm in the beautiful Waiohinu hills of Ka`u district on the South side of the Big Island is a gorgeous natural escape from city life, overlooking the last 80 miles of undeveloped coastline in the State of Hawaii. We offer easy access as our driveway accesses directly off of the main Island belt road, highway 11--yet privacy and quiet is guaranteed as the vacation house is 7 acres up the 1,000 foot driveway on it's own private 4.5 acres of our Organic Estate. We have a second unit, for housing a total of 12 people, as well as other farm buildings offering the possibility to host groups up to 30 on special request.
Our farm house (1600 sq feet) has a large living room with beautiful vented double French doors out to the back breakfast patio, and orchard. There are two large bedrooms, one with two (or three) twin beds, the other with one Queen size bed, and one full bath. We offer full kitchen and laundry, a large cathedral ceiling dining room with an exquisite twelve foot bird-of-paradise mural on the wall, hand painted by a local artist, a large dining table with exotic Banana Leaf chairs and a fold-away ping-pong table for family fun.
Next door is a large twenty acre parcel with our own private hiking trails cut into our "enchanted forest". In the neighborhood at twelve minutes drive lies Punalu'u BLACK SAND BEACH, rated 3rd best beach in Hawaii by the travel channel that offers tennis and golf as well as excellent swimming, boogey boarding, and snorkeling. About twelve miles down the nearby South Point Road lies the historical and pristine natural area known as KA LAE a sacred place for Native Hawaiians, where the first of Hawaii's people landed. Also down this road lies a rare GREEN SAND BEACH that takes a good 2.5 mile hike each way, or sturdy four wheel drive vehicle to access.
At fifteen minutes drive North lies the second longest lava tube in the world at KULA KAI CAVERNS--one of the best tours on the Island into this amazing 20 mile long (and still mapping) tube is offered by a local tour operator. All in all this a rare area full of exotic natural treasures.
Coffee and macadamia nut tours are available on request.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2006
We are Barney & Elizabeth, Sam & Gabe, owners of Ailani Orchards, a family owned and run organic orchard since 2001. We pride ourselves on offering truly healthy and some of the best tasting dehydrated organic macadamia nuts available on the Hawaiian Islands, and our coffee is ahhhhh...well... you'll have to taste this divine brew yourselves to see what we mean! We also invented and produce our own chocolate macadamia nut butters made with real dark and white Belgian chocolate and our own organic nuts. It is a delicacy not to be missed. We believe in an organic lifestyle as a basis for our teaching both with kids and adults. Barney is Head Farmer and Orchard Master, and Elizabeth is an internationally bestselling author of two books on the Inkas of Peru. We are the Hawaii headquarters for the Wiraqocha Foundation for the Preservation of Indigenous Wisdom and offer programs on property.
Why the Owner Chose Naalehu
We began as an organic farm and then added this vacation rental house to our property to offer people a unique opportunity to participate in a real working farm and see real life in Hawaii and it adds to our farm charm.
The Unique Benefits of this Farm House
Our vacation rental here on our farm allows for organic farm tours, to see how coffee and macadamia nuts are grown and processed and to attend a real coffee roasting demonstration available upon request. Your vacation rental experience is enhanced by our organic farm surroundings and the beauty and MANA of this pristine natural area of the Big Island.
