Our family lives in a separate home on another part of the 24‑acre farm. We also run the world‑famous Krishna Cow Sanctuary in Papaikou, and several of our retired cuddle cows now live here at Vibe Farms. You’ll have your own private vibe with no one right next door. We’re happy to help with animal introductions, farm tours or local tips, but we also completely respect guests who prefer minimal interaction and maximum privacy – you choose.

• This is a working tropical farm on the quiet Hāmākua Coast. You may see and hear animals, distant roosters, coqui frogs and rain showers, but there’s almost no traffic and nights are very peaceful and dark for stargazing.
• We’re about 5 minutes from Akaka Falls State Park, 5 minutes from Kolekole Beach Park and walkable to Honomu Town; Hilo is roughly a 20‑minute drive.
• Children must be actively supervised at all times around animals, fences, uneven ground and especially the hot tub and cold plunge.
• East Hawaiʻi is lush and can be rainy and humid – we recommend light layers and a rain jacket.
• The hot tub and cold plunge are for registered guests only. Please shower before using, follow the posted instructions and observe our quiet hours.
• For safety, please respect gates and animal areas and only enter paddocks with us or at designated times.
• Please treat our home gently so we can keep offering a high‑quality, luxurious stay for future guests.
