About the host
Hosted by Jacob Turner
I grew up in Michigan but have lived in Colorado, Germany, Texas, Illinois and Hawaii. I've only spent 4 years of my life in an Urban setting, Chicago, Honolulu and Görlitz. I enjoy playing piano, singing, running to the beach with my dog, swimming, spear fishing, reading, hiking, eating and sleeping. I enjoy being a host because I get to meet people from all over the world and all walks of life.
Why they chose this property
Kalapana Seaview Estates is close to Kehena Black Sand Beach, which is a clothing optional beach. I've always loved sun bathing and swimming. It's an eclectic neighborhood full of Aloha.
What makes this property unique
I custom built this house with my own hands. The gardens are gorgeous and the finish work and cabinets are all custom. There's a private indoor shower, or an outdoor shower for your use! I often wash the dog outside. The property's back yard borders state land with hundreds of acres of Ohia Lehu'a Forest.
