Lex is a Star Host

Star Hosts are highly rated, responsive, and committed to providing incredible experiences.

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!

Banana Patch Bell Tent

Staying on this farm was good. We really enjoyed the tent and space it came with. It’s beautiful waking up and we enjoyed the cooking stove. The shared bathroom was okay, but it served its purpose. Would recommend anyone to stay on this beautiful piece of land.

Orchard Wall Tent

The Orchard Wall tent was delightful. The area is so peaceful and the tent is very comfortable - a good combo for a relaxing stay. The detailed guide provided after booking made check in and check out super easy. I really enjoyed my stay!

Banana Patch Bell Tent

Great place. Great location.

I enjoyed the place very much beautiful location, beautiful beaches nearby. There’s always something to do. Don’t arrive after dusk as finding your site can get a tad difficult. Give yourself plenty of time to wait for the restroom- almost every time we went it was busy. But it was the weekend and there is residents as well as campers.

Orchard Wall Tent

Such a peaceful retreat. Comfy bed. Beautiful landscape backdroped with one of the best views of the mountains. Cool breeze. Nice bathroom with a lot of hooks. Convenient table and chairs. I didn't use the cooking amenities, but well stocked. Perfect Glamping getaway.

Orchard Wall Tent

The tent was very cozy. Definitely a handful of lizards/bugs like stated in the description. Would definitely book again if I need to stay on the east side. Shower/bathroom was very good as well.

Banana Patch Bell Tent

Beautiful moonlit haven!

We had the most magical stay at Lex’s place. We were lucky enough to come on a waxing gibbous and the land was bathed in moonlight, we couldn’t resist a moonlit stroll along the stream. The bell tent was very comfortable and cosy, with all the amenities of a hotel room. The bathroom felt like a British farm house and I loved the old timey bottles on display. We also loved the little kittens roaming around and woke to the sound of birds singing (and cockerels, if you’re a light sleeper bare this in mind but we love their morning calls and were armed with earplugs!) We didn’t see a soul during our stay which suits us just fine. Overall I couldn’t recommend this slice of heaven enough!
