About the host

Hosted by Connie and Andrew

Host profile image
We are a fun loving, adventurous couple, living in the jungles of east Hawaii. We have traveled, and travel, extensively. We love visiting exotic locations and meeting people from all over the world. Connie is a semi- retired, celebrity wardrobe stylist originally from Hollywood. Andrew, born in Australia, is a building contractor and FEO Officer/tanker driver for the Hawaiian Paradise Park Volunteer Fire Department . Connie currently is a yoga instructor who runs her own studio on a 40 acre permaculture farm in Pahoa and leads yoga retreats on the island of Paros, Greece during the summer. Choosing a simpler life, we moved to Pahoa in 2001 to fulfill our dream of off-grid, sustainable living. Our home is up the road from the Rainforest Hideaway on a separate property we developed ourselves with machetes and a lot of sweat. We hand built our rammed earth home, made from volcanic cinder and inorganic soil from old sugar cane fields, and grow most of own own food organically.

Why they chose this property

The Enchanting Rainforest Hideaway is a unique and very private property. Located in a rare old growth jungle/rainforest area of Puna with many native and exotic plants and trees, yet still just a mile from the highway, 200 ft. off a paved road. (unpaved road is maintained and fine for rental cars) The perfect location to get away from it all but still be close enough to all the sights, restaurants and activites. Many other places you share the house or property with others, but not here. This is 2 acres all to yourself, beautifully landscaped with many extra touches to make your stay more relaxing and enjoyable.
