This is a breathtaking space that our family has poured many decades and multiple generations into. We are surrounded by jungle, with a freshwater stream running through the entire property and unobstructed mountain views. You are welcome to explore the grounds and enjoy the land. Chickens roam freely, with the occasional pig sightings in the evening. We do have a fair bit of bugs and geckos. If you’re especially sensitive to mosquitos, this might not be the place for you! Waimanalo is a small agricultural town filled with nurseries, horse stables, and a high concentration of Hawaiian homes. It remains mostly undeveloped and authentic, and we aim to keep it that way. While nestled against the mountains, we're just a five minute drive from the beach. We are fifteen minutes from Kailua town, where you'll find several grocery stores, shops, and restaurants. There are so many great beach and land activities nearby, and I'm happy to lead you in the direction of whatever you might be interested in! We are very protective of this land and town, but would love to share the space with respectful travelers looking for an authentic experience. While we are very hospitable, we are not in the business of hospitality. This is a working farm. I am happy to accommodate travelers, but I am not here at your beck and call. If that is the experience you are seeking, I think you would be happier elsewhere. We appreciate all of your bookings, and profits go directly back into farm infrastructure and new fruit trees. Thank you for looking!

Car Camping Site 2
This is a truly beautiful location nestled below the mountains. I would highly recommend guests staying in the bungalow. We were car camping which was quite awkward. The designated spots are very exposed and feel a bit like you’re parked on a golf course in someone’s manicured front lawn. Only part of the site is level so if another car/rv is coming it’s a bit weird figuring out who is going where. The bathroom and shower facilities were very nice but shared with several people so you might be in for a wait if you’ve really got to go. Overall it was a nice stay after we adjusted to feeling a bit detached and unsure of where we were allowed to be of as the host feels hands off. 5 stars for upkeep and facilities though. Happy we got to explore this side of the island but wouldn’t stay at this location as a car camper again

Car Camping Site
The surrounding view was very nice. Unfortunately the rest wasn‘t really convincing as the parking slot was very at an angle and we didn‘t feel very welcomed (never seen anybody, the Camping site looks very unkempt). Sorry to say that

Orchard Wall Tent
We rented both Yurts this time and Orchard wall has the best view! Love this property and the hosts are amazing! We've been back 3 times. I take my twins with me camping and the girls love it so much!

BEST experience
This is the third time we've stayed at Lex and Taylor's location, and it is our favorite place! The grounds are amazing, the hosts are so detailed and have thought everything through above and beyond what one would think of for "glamping" every time we go we are so grateful to have been able to spend time in Waimanalo at this site
