About the host
Hosted by Kaili Walters
My husband and I have lived on the Big Island for over 20 years. with our five children. My husband and his father coached High School football and were very involved in the community. We know you will love this special place as much as we do. We love the island and have lots of suggestions on things to do. We have put a lot of love into our beautiful lodge estate and are excited to share it with you.
Why they chose this property
Experience one of the only cloud forests in the United States. Unlike lowland rainforests that are warm and humid, cloud forests sit at higher, cooler elevations and are often wrapped in a soft, dreamlike mist. You’ll be surrounded by a lush Hawaiian landscape filled with fragrant awapuhi, vibrant heliconia, delicate orchids, guava, avocado, and blooming lehua. Parrots frequently glide through the canopy, while Hawaiian hawks and owls soar overhead. At night, drift to sleep to the gentle chorus of tropical coqui frogs — nature’s island lullaby.
What makes this property unique
Nestled on the peaceful slopes of Hualalai sits this large estate on 3 acres, The Lodge at Kaloko. Sleeps 12 comfortably with 5 well appointed bedrooms and bathrooms. Enjoy stargazing in the oversized person hot tub or by the outdoor firepit. 10-15 minutes to airport, beaches, Four Seasons and town. Wake up surrounded by ancient Hawaiian trees, Hapu'u ferns and native birds in the only cloud forest in North America.
