Enjoy the country life in Kau on 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, but you don’t need 4WD to get to our place, just go slow the road is gravel and bumpy. 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). Hipcamp kitchenette includes a propane single burner, ice chest (bring ice), No fridge. No oven. Small BBQ grill. 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 and a gallon of water to get you started. DRIP COFFEE -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. You can charge your phone and have a lamp in your cabin. No wifi. I use ATandT and I understand that Verizon and T-Mobile work here also. The panoramic ocean view is spectacular! Very peaceful and relaxing! Our glamping cabins are in the front 3 acres. The back 17 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.Enjoy the country life in Kau on the Big Island and the lovely red Lehua flowers blooming.

Coco Hut- Road to the Sea Glamping
Nice remote comfortable place. Strongly recommend a high clearance vehicle, especially to go to the green beach at the end of road, beautiful and worth the bumpy ride.

Coco Hut- Road to the Sea Glamping
Super welcoming Host! Totally remote out of space place in the middle of lava field. Cozy coco hut. Every thing was the way Debbie described. The views and star gazing was extraordinary. Clear directions. We can totally recommend this place.

Coco Hut- Road to the Sea Glamping
We had a great time at this unique place! The bed was large and comfortable. Debbie was warm and welcoming. The outdoor shower was fantastic. You need an SUV with good clearance or a truck to get here. Do not drive a car! We would book again if back on the island.

Best accommodation of hipcamp
We loved camping with Debbie. The hut was clean and spacious. The facilities were great. Instructions were clear. Best accommodation we had on big island. We felt extremely welcomed and it was very safe.

Coco Hut- Road to the Sea Glamping
My finance and I stayed in the coco hut for a few days and while we were visiting the island. We had such a wonderful and amazing time. The description had mentioned to get a vehicle that would be able to handle the rough terrain. We were able to visit the green Sand Beach down the road along with the tide pool. Not only were both of the host amazing and so welcoming but the location was also beautiful and quiet. The outdoor kitchen was a lot of fun to use while cooking out. I would definitely recommend this to many friends and it will 100% be coming back when we visit again. Fun fact, we became engaged during this trip, which will make it a memorable experience for me for my entire life. The bed was extremely comfortable and the sound of the coqui frogs provided a peaceful night of sleeping every night. The stars that you see out here are absolutely amazing. Thank you again for the wonderful stay, and we will see you again.
