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.

A lava-covered coastal park, Kīholo State Park Reserve features small bays, sparsely vegetated coastline, historic lava flows, and plenty of wide open space to roam. If you’ve never visited a black sand beach, you’ll have the chance to see it here, pressed up and contrasting against lush palm trees and shoreline. It’s a pretty decent spot for snorkeling too. While the park is still undergoing conceptual planning for future public use, visitors are able to visit during the day. Overnight camping is offered in a more remote area. Please be prepared with your own drinking water. Dehydration is so not a good look for you.

Tucked away in a lush ʻōhiʻa forest at 2,300 feet elevation, our private three-acre retreat offers a one-of-a-kind glamping experience on the Big Island. Surrounded by vibrant jungle, fresh mountain air, and cool, comfortable temperatures, this is a place where nature feels both expansive and deeply meaningful.
The ʻōhiʻa trees that embrace the property are more than just beautiful—they are sacred in Hawaiian culture. Known as ʻōhiʻa lehua when in bloom, these native trees are among the first to grow on new lava flows, symbolizing resilience, regeneration, and life emerging from fire. In Hawaiian moʻolelo (stories), the ʻōhiʻa and lehua are associated with the lovers ʻŌhiʻa and Lehua, whose story speaks to deep connection and the intertwining of land, spirit, and relationship. Being among these trees offers a quiet sense of reverence and connection to the living history of the island.
By day, wander through the forest, explore nearby hiking trails, and immerse yourself in the soothing sounds of our handcrafted sound gardens. By night, the sky opens wide to reveal a brilliant canopy of stars—perfect for stargazing beside the warmth of a crackling fire pit.
Our thoughtfully designed glamping setup blends simplicity with comfort, featuring outdoor showers and toilets that keep you connected to the natural surroundings without sacrificing ease. The property offers plenty of space to relax, recharge, and explore, with ample parking for convenient access.
Despite the peaceful seclusion, you’re just 15 minutes from the airport, the beaches, and downtown Kailua, giving you the best of both worlds—jungle serenity and island adventure.
Whether you’re seeking a quiet escape, a romantic getaway, or a basecamp for exploration, this lush sanctuary invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and experience the spirit of Hawaiʻi in a truly special setting.

2 nights at Gingerhill Farm Retreat
I loved staying in the Jungle Canopy! It was incredible to hear the birds in the morning when making coffee, and hear the frogs sing at night. The bed was super comfy and it was awesome to have my own bathroom with the cool outdoor shower (with hot water!!). The Canopy is a short walk from the parking area so it’s easy to bring your bag up, just don’t forget to bring some bug repellent for the mosquitos, and don’t forget to go say hi to the goats and chickens down in the garden! This place is a true delight and I’m excited to come back one day.

Even though I arrived super late and it was dark, the instructions were very clear and I had no problem finding the spot. I ended up sleeping in my car, but if I had arrived during the day, setting up a tent would have been easy. I personally really enjoyed the drive up there for me it felt like another adventure on its own. Just make sure you have a taller car for the road. Unfortunately, the restroom was not really usable for me, but overall I still had a good experience.

6 nights at Cozy jungle 2-Bedroom Cabin
I loved the private location, the mesmerizing sound of the Koki frogs, the wild pigs and piglets, roosters, pheasants and chickens. The resident cats and dog were sweet and Christophe and Bonnie were just lovely people. We rented Scooters and visited many shoreline access points, and the recommendations for places to eat and check out were on point! Reading in the hammock and the hanging pod were favourites of ours, it was such a great home base for our Adventuring.

1 night at Paradise yurts
Loved the Yurt and a beautiful outdoor shower (we saw 10+ geckos during ~3 showers in there!) the land was beautiful and it was great to get to fall asleep listening to the cows.

16 ft car
Colin was great with the communication and the property was perfect. Easy in - easy out….just go slow on the road in. No big deal.
Ended up adding another day at the end of my trip!

Weekend Trip to Sunset Ocean View Studio
Jasmine was a wonderful host, welcoming and present without hovering. Her studio was perfectly located—close to Kona, a large grocery store and wonderful snorkeling and hiking—and it was very peaceful with bird sounds and an ocean view to the west right from the window of the screen porch for lovely sunsets. Everything was in great condition and it was spotlessly clean. The bed was super-comfortable. Jasmine’s suggestions for eating and adventuring were spot on. Just a wonderful, restorative place to stay on the Kona coast.

2 nights at Gingerhill Farm Retreat
Gingerhill Farm Retreat was the most amazing and perfect authentic, raw and true experience! Sylvia met me at my car and guided me up the grassy path past the goats and chickens to show me the delightful facilities, the outdoor shower so delicious, the community kitchen with the am8’g view of the Pacific, and the simple sleep accommodation in the yurt! I fely at all times I was there as if I was sunk into the lush paradise that surrounded me. I will return if ever I am able and stay as long as I possibly can!

21 ft campervan
With kids
We stayed in a campervan on the old tennis court. It was the perfect place to camp in a van, level, no bugs, close to amenities and an ocean view. Picking macadamia nuts and swimming in the pool were highlights for the kids. The property is in a great area with lots of activities. Highly recommend.

Tent
The hosts are awesome. Amazing. The location has lots of beautiful places to hang out, and the proximity to amazing stuff like the green sand beach, black sand beach, and my favorite, the bakery. Lol. Go spend at least 2 days here to really enjoy it.
