Welcome to Jungle Bee!

Jungle Bee Farms is a stunning 23 acre estate overlooking the northern most point in the Hawaiian Island chain with amazing view of the pacific and private access to Secret Beach. Our trail winds through a jungle Cacao farm/botanical garden with an array of tropical plants along a small creek with two waterfalls. On your stroll you will pass by approximately 400 Cacao (chocolate) trees on you way to the beach/ocean.

There are two homes on the property, a 3 Bedroom Main House and a 1 Bedroom Ocean Suite, the Ocean suite was remodeled and updated in 2016 and the main house was updated and remodeled in the beginning of 2022.

3 Bedroom home- 2 king master bedrooms with attached full bathrooms. One smaller sized room with a full size bed. A third full bathroom is directly outside the small bedroom.. This home has a large open kitchen/living/dining area, which is great for family gatherings as well as an attached rear Lanai (porch) with panoramic ocean and garden views. The home is fully appointed with a well stocked kitchen, High Quality linens, and comfortable island style furnishings. Amenities include high speed wireless, HD cable TV, phone with free long distance throughout North America (now also Canada and Mexico), Bose docking stereo, kids toys and books, Brand new Air Conditioning throughout, and much more (full list below) This home was completely updated in the beginning of 2022 so has all new furniture, fresh paint job, and concrete front patio with outdoor furniture and grill. We also provide coolers and beach chairs.

1 Bedroom Ocean Suite – This house sits perched on top of a valley leading down to Secret Beach and the ocean views are amazing! The 785 sq. ft. Suite is fully equipped with a well appointed kitchen, washer dryer, full bath with rain shower, King bed, 42” flat screen TV, Bluetooth stereo, land line phone with free long distance (North America,Canada, and Mexico), HD digital Cable TV and Wireless internet, Air Conditioning, and quality furnishings.

Jungle Bee Farms is a Cacao or Chocolate farm, but the plant diversity impressive with many exotic fruit species, Cacao (chocolate) trees, and Native Hawaiian Plants. We also have a citrus orchard where you can pick fresh tangelos, ruby red grapefruit, and tangerines most of the year.

You will have 23 acres to explore on our private trail between the homes and the beach. Secret beach is one of Kauai’s true gems. With its limited public access you can enjoy this mile long stretch of white sand beach practically by yourself. Secret beach offers experienced surfers world-class waves in the winter and is usually calm in the summer.

Wonderful houses and grounds!

We absolutely loved staying on this 23 acre property with two houses. The walk down to the secret beach through the fruit trees was spectacular! House was furnished with the basics. Property manager was easy to communicate with and allowed us to have a late check out to accommodate our later flight. Hot tub and the secret beach were wonderful. Loved everything about it!!!

Dreamy vacation home in Kilauea

A beautiful secluded property with two dwellings that comfortably fit our whole multi-generational family for an unforgettable Christmas holiday. The kitchen was stocked well enough to allow lots of cooking and baking for the holidays, and we were just a few minutes drive from a lovely little town and market. All the comforts of shops and restaurants nearby, while we felt complete privacy amongst the trees overlooking the ocean.

Loved our time here

My husband and I were debating on a resort or a home for this trip and we are so happy we chose this spot. The houses are great but we really loved the property. Super private and beautiful! Loved hiking through the lush jungle like yard to get to the beautiful and very private beach. Houses had everything we needed. If you are counting on bikes to ride in the description take that off the list cause they were not rideable but besides that everything was perfect.

The property was even more amazing than the pictures. Very comfortable, all the right amenities, perfect privacy (except for the chickens!) and jaw dropping views. The walk to the beach is a floral and fruit adventure, and the beach, surf and views were spectacular. We will be back and will stay longer.

Paradise everywhere you turn!

This was our 4th stay on the property & get better every time. Great location for numerous outdoor activities we love. The accommodation extremely comfortable with awesome views. Jimmy made us feel at home & took care of any issues that would arise. We love to cook and would suggest a slight upgrade with some of the kitchen appliances. Aloha

Just perfect!!

I can’t even express how amazingly perfect this property is. My husband, daughter and I stayed in the main house, while my son and daughter in law stayed in the cottage. There was more than enough room for all of us. The views are ridiculously amazing. Both houses were fully equipped with everything we needed. They’ve thought of everything! Jimmy was quick to respond to every question. The property is stunning. Highly recommend!!

Jungle with a secret beach!

Our Family travelled from Los Angeles California and Canberra Australia to stay at this beautiful property. The main house and the cottage were a perfect fit for us, they were both nicely equipped. The beach is beautiful, and we really enjoyed walking and hiking the trail. Located near Kilauea town & lighthouse, it was near some good shopping and a nice small market, it it’s not far from Princeville where a large market is, and also not too a far drive from Hanilei which has shops and a great scenic beach. Take a cruise up the coast to see the beauty of the Napoli coast, it’s amazing! We would definitely recommend the Jungle Bee, it’s an amazing large private property. Jimmy the Caretaker was really helpful with everything.

Family together

Brought our family together ( 2 adult children, 2 spouses, 2 teenage granddaughters 13,16) Just wanted time as a full family we live coast to coast. The property was fantastic loads of room to roam. Some rarely left the beach and jungle others traveled the island. Something for all. Our only wish was dinner together and that was easily managed with a large kitchen and full seating for 8. Plus so many options of where we could have it. The estate was so clean and wonderfully manicured. Just needed the food and our swimsuits. Rest was there.

Husband’s birthday trip

I don’t want to say too much. I want to keep this to myself it’s so special. It’s not on the beach but it has a spectacular beach and the property is magical. Not for people who don’t want to walk through a jungle. And Jimmy was good at communicating. The listing says bikes, don’t they have any in working order. That’s my only critique. Mahalo Kauai and Jimmy’s team.

Another trip to paradise

Picture it - waking up to the view of the ocean and the hawaiian trade winds. Wandering the estate and picking fruit. Making use of their beautiful outside space to host dinner or sit in the hot tub overlooking the valley and ocean. My husband and I have had the pleasure of staying at Jungle Bee previously. We brought the rest of the family along for this trip and had a wonderful time. When we visit, we genuinely don't want to leave the property and often times wish we had designated more time in just enjoying the space because it is so well maintained, tranquil and beautiful. We highly recommend the space if you want a little slice of paradise and a space to relax and let go.

Amazing Jungle Orchard Paradise

Exceptionally clean upon first arriving. Every basic essential you need in the kitchen/bathrooms. This setting is unmatched- with fruit trees right in your backyard facing the ocean and meandering through the orchard down the path to the mostly quiet beach was so amazing! This is definitely not a swimming beach - huge crashing waves while we were here in Feb-March were so thrilling to see, and it’s fine to wade in the shallowest water a bit looking for shells. The big lava rocks were fantastic to see the waves crashing up against them; so picturesque. The grounds were immaculate abs against the orchard aspect was so cool. The path down to the beach does require shoes, and doesn’t take long at all, maybe 7-8 min. Jimmy was my contact and was very attentive and quick to respond for everything from recommendations for the area, to check in procedure. Hopefully we will be back one day and this place will be top of our list to reserve for another stay if possible.

Absolute Paradise!!!

What an incredible property! We could not have found a more perfect destination for our family vacation. The main house was well appointed and a perfect fit for a portion of our family. My wife and I and our two young kids stayed in the cottage and felt like we had our own little slice of heaven! The view is spectacular and there is no better place to relax than on the cottage front deck or patio. The property manager Jimmy was fantastic and made us feel right at home and was responsive to any questions or needs we may have had during our stay. Thank you Jimmy! The property is stunning with a wide variety of citrus, avocado, cacao and other fruit trees at every turn. The walk to the beach is magical in its own right as you traverse the tropical jungle, cross over meandering streams and go through the Cacao tree groves. It’s a 10 minute walk and worth every minute so take your time and enjoy the hike. Secret Beach is just wonderful and with the private access to this sparsely populated beach we almost felt as if we had our own private beach. The surf is high in the winter months but the kids loved frolicking in the waters edge and we spent many hours soaking up the sun and the beauty of this beach! Our family ranged from ages 9 to 75 and I can say with certainty that this was a trip of a lifetime for all of us. I can’t say enough good things about our experience at the Jungle Bee House and Cottage! We can’t wait to visit again someday…hopefully sooner than later.

Wonderful, rejuvenating stay

My husband and I had an amazing stay at the Jungle Bee earlier this month. We stayed for 8 nights. The house was great! It was in perfect condition. Very clean, well-maintained, and tastefully decorated. It had everything we needed for our stay. We could see other houses nearby, but heard almost nothing from neighbors. It was a very quiet place to hide out and relax. The views of the mountains and ocean were lovely, even on the couple of cloudy days we had. Unfortunately, the mosquitoes made it impossible to enjoy hanging out on the back porch, but we enjoyed watching the sunset from the house. It was also amazing getting to watch the sunrise from bed! The path down to Secret Beach was a bit mysterious (we never quite figured out if we were trespassing or not), but we enjoyed walking along the beach and exploring the lava pools. We loved being in Kilauea, with its easy access to our favorite east side spots (like Moloa'a) and northwestern spots (like Haena), as well as the tasty ice cream (Kilauea Video & Ice Cream) and fish (Kilauea Fish Market) in town. When a small maintenance problem occurred, Jimmy was very professional and responsive. We also very much appreciated working with Glenn and Kim on booking the property; they were extremely helpful and responsive. Even though we booked the property at the last minute, they all made sure that everything was ready for us. There was even a lovely platter of fruit from the property and other treats waiting for us when we arrived! The house was a bit pricey for just the 2 of us, and we'll probably book a smaller place next time (if we manage to plan a bit further in advance!) But we'd highly recommend it to those who want the extra space and don't mind the price or are traveling with kids or another couple. It was a really relaxing, rejuvenating stay. We had an amazing time, and would consider ourselves lucky to stay at the Jungle Bee again in the future. Mahalo!

Jungle oasis with local wildlife

This property is one of a kind. It’s on the north side of the island, so it gets a lot of rain. This makes the bottom of the property a tropical jungle which has been cultivated into a fully functional cacao farm accompanied with other fruits. The property comes also equipped with its own flock of chickens and a herd of pigs. The chickens are up at dawn the the pigs are out at night. We got snorted at a couple of times at night walking between the houses. It really is a magical place and I will definitely be back.
