Note: this bedroom shares the master bath on the same floor or the 1/2 bath on the second floor.

The property has been designed for sustainability and beauty making this a prime spot for eco-tourism. The house is solar powered (grid-tied to local power company so you don't need to worry about loosing power), water harvesting (water catchment) and there is a significant focus on organic and sustainable food production on the farm, which you are welcome to enjoy during your stay. The farm is certified organic and follows permaculture design principles.
There is high speed and very reliable WIFI.
The "House" consists of the top 2 levels of the house. These 2 levels are completely private to you only and have no shared spaces. It is an ideal layout for a couple because of the unique and oversized master suite. The second bedroom is small and does not have its own bathroom, so anyone sleeping in that room will either need to use the bathroom on the 2nd floor or the master suite bathroom. The ground-level of the house operates as an "Ohana" for up to 2 guests ~ and is an open-air lanai space, private room and full-bathroom. The ground-level is private to the "Ohana" guests and also has no shared spaces. If you would like to rent this as well (either for added privacy or if you want to vacation with more people), you may book the Ohana separately) Here is a link to the Ohana: https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/118560?s=51

We are 1 mile from spectacular Kealakekua Bay, host to turquoise water with amazing visibility, beautiful coral reefs & exotic tropical marine life including spinner dolphins. The Bay offers world-class snorkeling, paddle boarding and kayaking. Surfing is also available nearby at Ke'ei, and Kahaluu. Also nearby: Big Island Bees, Peleaku Peace Gardens, Painted Church, Puuhonua a Honaunau...
We are a HOSTED rental, which is legally required for agriculturally zoned vacation rentals like ours.
Public transportation is not an option in this area. You'll definitely need to rent a car. Even though we are only 1 mile from Kealakekua Bay, it is down a windy road (400ft climb) without a shoulder, so not the ideal beach walk :-)
- Hawaii Mandatory short-term occupancy tax collected at check-in (14.25%), but can vary slightly when the State raises taxes
~ The entire farm respects quiet hours 9pm-8am with no music and only quiet conversations during these hours because no one closes their windows in Hawaii :-)
- The Mango Farm is a place for relaxation, restoration and re-charging
~ We are a working, organic mango farm with 65 mango trees and about 15 other types of fruit trees (permaculture, organic, korean natural farming practices), and we have extensive vegetable and herb gardens. We also make essential oils of lemongrass, tulsi, curry leaf, cinnamon, nutmeg, citrus, basil, catnip and many other botanicals. We make plant-based medicine and value-added products like moringa powder, mango chutney and tinctures from time-to-time, so let us know if you're interested in products we are making.
~ This rental is located on an Organic Mango farm and can have mosquitos, bugs, spiders and geckos/critters. We are committed to maintaining the highest standards of cleanliness, but remember, you are on a farm. There can be wild and free-roaming chickens and roosters. There are birds of all kinds, coqui frogs and you might even spot a mongoose running across the farm. We also have farm cats and although they are so sweet and friendly, they are not allowed in the house. We mention all of this in case you want a fully sanitized experience - if so, this is not your best choice :-) Even though we are an organic farm, we contract with a monthly pest service to ensure the best possible experience while on the farm. We have very high standards and want this to show :-)
~ We are very easy to reach via the Airbnb app and also have full-time and on-site caretakers. We encourage you to reach out if you need anything.
- Guests should respect the tranquil and relaxing vibe on the farm
- The farm respects quiet hours between 9pm - 8am (quiet voices, no music, no loud TV)
