About this property
Tropical garden bungalow - all the comforts
Honey House is a finely finished piece of craftsmanship. Easy access, no stairs. It is a stand-alone 480 square foot garden bungalow.
Hardwoods accent the living area. The full bath features a tiled shower, granite counter, and access to a garden lanai. We feature whole house water filtration and UV treatment, with regular ph adjustment so you can drink from any faucet in the house. The kitchen has a gas range and all kinds of cooking equipment. There is a king size bed and a big fluffy futon couch that can be turned into a 2nd bed if needed.
We have fiberoptic wifi. Works for Zoom and phone calls, streaming, etc.
Honey House has a floor and a ceiling fan, screened windows, windows that close in case of wind or rain, curtains for privacy. On site host in separate house in case you need anything.
We offer plenty of fresh fruit from our orchards, whatever is in season. Oranges, lemons, avocados and bananas are usually available during winter months. Exotics like mangosteen and jaboticaba happen periodically. In the orchard is a shared outdoor shower, hot & cold, also filtered and drinkable.
We are located on a secluded clothing optional acre in Kehena Beach Estates, on the the Puna coastline, and most easily accessed from Hilo airport. We are only 5 minutes walk from Kehena black sand beach yet surrounded by fruit trees, fragrant flowers, and edible gardens. The song of the frogs, crickets and toads have a delightful natural rhythm that puts us to sleep every night. We have colorful house geckos, a suite of outdoor cats and muscovy ducks, and sometimes wild pigs visit. Temperatures in the winter are sometimes in the sixties at night and usually in the eighties by mid day. Winter is humpback whale season and whale song can sometimes be heard at night right from your bed.
You can walk two blocks down our quiet street to the end and then take a neighborhood trail that comes out on Kalapana Kapoho Road right across from the beach. Or take the road all the way. Hawaiian spinner dolphins often stop in for a visit to our beach. Kehena Beach faces east. It is sunny in the morning and shady in the afternoon. Quiet and often nearly deserted in the morning, a big party with drumming every Sunday afternoon.

About the host
Hosted by Dave
Why they chose this property
We have loved this area since we first arrived as visitors in the 80's. Have seen the various lava flows over the years, development and changes... and the beauty of this place never fails to make us feel blessed to be here.
What makes this property unique
We were looking for soil so we could grow fruit trees and a garden. Also wanted to be close to Kehena beach.
