Our property is incredibly unique and tropical. Authentic Hawaii living, our property hosts the occasional tropical visitor. You could come across chickens, pheasants, roosters, and coqui frogs during your stay. Although we maintain our property with pest control we ask that our guests do their part by keeping the house crumb free. Although there is no AC (like most of Hawaii) there really isn't a need for it. Our higher elevation and place on the mountain provide refreshing cross breezes 24 hours a day. You might even want to wear a sweater in the evening. Another thing to note is our pool (UNLIKE most of Hawaii) IS HEATED! The daily rate for this is $90 plus tax.
**If your stay is 10 days or longer, we will require a mid week clean. The fee for this is $180. If you decline the clean, the same fee will be added to your check out clean.
Java is the juice that powers Holualoa, the little village and art enclave in the heart of Kona coffee country. This is a great place to taste the rich flavors of 100% pure Kona coffee, a rare commodity exclusively grown in north and south Kona. There are many great restaurants within just a few miles such as Kinichis, Kaya's and Rebel Kitchen.
The high elevation, constant cloud coverage, and rich volcanic soil in the upland slopes of Kona, Holualoa and Kealakekua create an ideal environment for harvesting the unique Kona coffee bean. There are roughly 600 coffee farms in the Kona area and many offer tours to the public. Visit Holualoa’s thriving coffee orchards and learn about the meticulous harvesting process. Then explore the coffee mill and see how the beans are processed. As you finish your tour, sip a freshly brewed cup for yourself and experience the rich aroma and flavor that makes 100% Kona coffee so highly valued.
Tucked amid the upland farms on the slopes of dormant Hualalai Volcano between Kailua-Kona and Keauhou, Holualoa has also become art central for the Kona and the Kohala Coast resort areas. Discover local artwork including paintings, ceramic sculptures and handcrafted woodwork. To experience the best of both worlds, visit during the annual Holualoa Village Coffee & Art Stroll in November. Taste exotic Kona coffee blends while you shop for handcrafted goods and meet local farmers and artists. Then make room in your suitcase to take home a bag of Holualoa’s best beans for your trip home.
