Ohia Hale

As all the land here is born of lava, many moons ago this land began to host plants and critters. Long after,  it was sculpted and a number of families and farmers have contributed to what we have today.  An abundance of fruit and vegetables within sight of the ocean.  Peaceful breezes and warming sun make for unparalleled tranquility.  Today the land still gives back to its visitors.  
Come recharge.
As this is agricultural lands, there are many critters.  Dogs, chickens, pheasants, peacock, mongoose, and many birds.   Tge invasive coqui frog is annoying to some and calming to others. 
The micro climate here swings from warm and dry to wet quickly.  Best to always prepare for rain.
There is snorkeling, beaches, local food, Cafe, BBQ, poke, fish-n-chips,  grocery,  Sunday farmers market and hiking nearby.  
It is peaceful here, but also an active farming community.  
  As an organic farm, we put alot of effort into soil building and as such, there are soft places that will be damaged by the weight of a vehicle.  Staying on the driveway is best.  We will guide you to where you need to go.  
Our road is paved, but bumpy. Any vehicle will make it without damage if driven slowly. 1 to 4mph tops.  *Be sure to avoid the camper rental companies that restrict certain roads.  
Aloha and have a great day.  

Road to the Sea Glamping

Enjoy the country life in Kau on the South End of the Big Island and the lovely red Lehua flowers blooming. We live on 20 acres on Road to the Sea, which has a remote green sand beach at the end of the road (4 miles down from us). We call our slice of paradise, Honua Laa (a sacred place).

 Straight down to the coast is a beautiful black and green sand beach and a huge tide pool. Rent a four-wheel-drive to get there.  You don’t need a 4WD to get to our place, but you will need a SUV or truck. Go slow the road is bumpy and rough in places. We are 1.2 miles from the highway.

Off the grid. Rustic, but fun.

 If you are a Eco tourist or seeking adventure, you will love our spot!

The silence is golden and the stars are amazing.

Don't expect a hotel...this is upcountry glamorous camping.

Shared bathroom (see photos) about a 100 feet away. Hipcamp kitchenette includes a propane single burner, ice chest, No fridge. No oven. We have an outdoor fire pit, if you like campfires!

It's one-of-a-kind! Most of the parcels are 20 acre parcels around… But a few smaller parcels across the road. We have nice neighbors who keep an eye on things.

The nearest grocery store is about 3 miles away. The Hele-On Bus is just 1.2 miles up the road. If you want to drive to the green sand beach at the end of our road, rent a 4 wheel drive. If you are athletic, you can walk, but it is 4 miles down and 4 miles back. I recommend going early in the morning and take water.

Hot water shower is propane. Bring ice for your ice chest. Bring drinking water. There is plenty of coffee and tea in the kitchenette. Boil hot water in the kettle, put cone filter with a paper filter and ground coffee inside and on top of thermos. Drip. It's delicious!

This is off the grid solar and there can be days without sun, or other glitches.  No wifi. I use ATandT and I understand that Verizon and Tmobile work also

The panoramic ocean view is spectacular! Very peaceful and relaxing!

The back 15 acres is an old Ohia forest with 500 year old trees and lots of birds. You might even see a wild goat or a wild pig. There are small caves and gorgeous rock formations. It backs up to Manuka Forest Reserve. 

We have beautiful furnished cabins with beds, so you don't have to pitch a tent. Pillows, blankets, fresh towels provided.
