Ved siden af over 500 hektar State Oceanfront Land..Alle dine at udforske!

I fell in love with Kalapana/Kehena the moment of my arrival in 2004! I have been all over the state, and have found no other place to be so close to the traditional Hawaiian lifestyle. The people of this community are happy and friendly and the way of life is still relaxed and laid back.
I fell in love with this property in ’05 and purchased it with the idea of creating a sanctuary to grow old in. Prior to my ownership, this property was a part of a Buddist’s Meditation Center and it was direct oceanfront. In 1992 the lava flow preserved this property yet swept along the shoreline, taking out the beaches and forming the lava flats we now enjoy and making new beaches. This newly created land now belongs to the state.
I saw myself living at this property forever, so I renovated it for 2 years. It is my pleasure to share it with visitors who wish for a unique Hawaiian experience in a rural, beautiful, and wild setting!
Living on an active volcano on the 2nd largest mountain on the planet (next to Mauna Kea, the other volcano of Big Island) has its benefits…there is magnetic energy here that many feel to be “Supercharged”, lending itself to the dynamic and creative spirits of our community members.

Kaimu enjoys the best weather on the island, according to most Hawaiians. More Hawaiians lived here than in any other location!
Balmy nights, and 45' of rain each year, with sunshine filled days. I fell in love with Kalapana/Kehena 20 minutes after my arrival! I have been all over the state, and have found no other place to be so close to the ways of old Hawaiian Living… the people of this community are happy and friendly and the way of life is still relaxed and laid back.
We are conveniently located close enough to Hilo, the Hamakua Coast and Volcano National Park. The Saddle Road will bring you to Kona in just under 2 hours.

A natural setting as dramatic as that which Cottage at the Ocean enjoys is rare. The energy of the active volcano, and our location next to the Pacific Ocean, with miles upon miles of wild coastline to hike is truly invigorating.
Walks along the coastal bluffs directly will give you the experience of what Hawaii was like long ago. It is wild, rural, beautiful, and sensual, filling you with Hawaii's Techni-Color palette of vivid ocean and sky blues, white puffy clouds, bright greens of the variety of vegetation, and the sound of the crashing waves you hear all day and all night.
At night, you will be in awe at the number and brightness of the star-lite skies!
