2 nights at Mocean View Inn

Dawns place was perfect for a lovely and price conscious stay near volcanoes national park. The cabin was equipped with everything we needed for a comfy stay (including an amazing hot shower!), mini fridge, easy secure access on/off the property, and close to VNP. Dawn was super friendly and shared some great stories and tips about the big island. Mahalo for letting us stay! We’ll be back soon!

3 nights at Hawaiian Retreat

It was rustic and a beautiful. We enjoyed learning a out the fruit trees and edible plants.

Weekend Trip to Yip Camp and Eco-Retreat Center

Stayed in the yip cottage, and it was great. Nice camp spot for an overnight stop for our adventure around the island. Close to Kīlauea. Had everything we needed, brought extra stuff just in case… we enjoyed visiting with Thomas and loved his off the beaten path property!

2 nights at Faris' Farm

We only wish we would have stayed longer. Super interesting but short stay. I loved the animals and all the interesting projects that we learned about.

Weekend Trip to Sunrise Cabanas Panoramic Views

Waking up to the sound of tree frogs and birds was absolutely exceptional. Great overnight stay for us!

Weekend Trip to Faris' Farm

My sister and I stayed here for two days while exploring the surrounding area- and I can’t say enough good things about the property, Patrick and Brian, and our accommodations. Everything was so thoughtful and comfortable, falling asleep to the sound of frogs at night and waking up for homemade breakfast each morning was such a treat. Patrick and Brian were so knowledgeable and more than willing to answer any question we had, and it really felt like we were staying with friends. Showering (hot water!) surrounded by foliage was perfection as well. If we’re ever on the big island again- we’d stay here in a heartbeat.

Weekend Trip to The Tranquil Homestead

Our stay at this "Off Grid" cabin was pure magic. The setting is absolutely stunning—tucked among striking Rainbow Eucalyptus trees that make the entire property feel like a hidden tropical dream. The natural beauty here is unreal, and the peaceful atmosphere made it easy to unwind and disconnect. The cabin itself was spotless, cozy, and perfectly suited for a restful escape. Everything was thoughtfully maintained, and you can tell the hosts care deeply about the space and their guests. Speaking of the hosts—they were incredible! So warm, friendly, and welcoming. Their hospitality truly made our stay even more special. One of the unexpected joys of our visit was spending time with the Muscovy ducks. They were such a delightful part of the experience—full of personality and charm. We loved watching them waddle around the homestead! We honestly wish we could have stayed longer. This place is a true gem, and we’re already dreaming of coming back. Highly, highly recommend!

Weekend Trip to IO's NEST LOOKOUT on the Hamakua

So nice! Great value and set up of amenities! We loved it for so many reasons!

2 nights at The Tranquil Homestead

We had such a beautiful and peaceful stay at The Tranquil Duck! The property is serene, charming, and surrounded by nature—truly the perfect escape. We especially loved the rainbow eucalyptus trees right outside the homestead; they added such a magical touch to the surroundings. Christopher and Esther were incredibly sweet and helpful, going above and beyond to make us feel welcome. They were also so flexible and kind in allowing our pups to stay, who had an amazing time exploring the property and soaking in the fresh air. They even took the time to give us an extensive list of recommendations, which made our trip even more enjoyable and stress-free. We’re already looking forward to coming back and would absolutely love to stay here again. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and memorable getaway!

2 nights at Lava Rock Cabin ~ Off Grid Hale

We had a fantastic time! Sanna showed us how everything worked and gave clear instructions. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils and the shower’s hot water warmed as fast as normal plumbing! We were able to get in and out of the property easily with the locked gate. Overall we had a great time and I would definitely book again.

1 night at IO's NEST LOOKOUT on the Hamakua

What a magical and private location! Super cozy and comfy for two with all the amenities to be comfortable. If it rains, the large umbrella cover's the entire deck so you can still enjoy the beautiful views.

Weekend Trip to IO's NEST LOOKOUT on the Hamakua

Io's nest was a gorgeous and comfortable stay! Coqui frogs and the sound of rain on the metal roof was soothing and easily serenaded us to sleep. Close to Akaka Falls (an easy 30 ish min walk right from the stay). The host (Krystle) was super responsive, gave good explicit directions. Comfy bed with stellar views, especially of the sunrise over the ocean. Nice to have a sink right on site, with access to a bathroom and outdoor shower nearby. Strongly recommend staying here!

2 nights at Yip Camp and Eco-Retreat Center

Yip Camp was a delightful retreat in the jungle near volcanoes. Thomas was very communicative and friendly, and added finishing touches like a fresh bouquet of flowers on the nightstand in the tent. Great base camp for visiting the south and east parts of the island, falling asleep to rain on the roof and coqui frogs.

1 night at The Tranquil Homestead

We loved our short stay at the tropical duck cabin. Our hosts were gracious and the cabin was comfortable. Would love to return and stay longer to learn about their off grid living.

2 nights at Hawaiian Retreat

Amazing little bungalow in the rainforest! Janelle was a great host and brought us a lovely basket of fresh fruit. The outdoor shower was so fun and the sounds at night were exotic but not overwhelming. Would love to stay here again!

2 nights at Yip Camp and Eco-Retreat Center

I loved camping at this Yip Camp! Thomas was such an amazing host, made us feel very comfortable and recommended a lot of cool locations around the area! Even offered to make us some coffee in the morning before our outing and brought us some towels when we had forgot ours. Volcano national park is just a 20 minute easy drive. This location is pretty isolated and about a 15-20 minute drive to any food/ restaurant, the choices are pretty limited but I would DEFINITELY recommend mt view bakery. Small local bakery with the best treats and sandwiches. Also recommend Frankie’s pizza nearby which we also really liked. Thomas also has a little dog named Yip and we loved him! The cabin itself was very cozy, bed was very comfortable and we stayed warm all night. If you’re looking for a fancy airbnb or glamping to stay at, this is not the place for you. This is definitely more of a camping feel, more in tune with earth and the nature around you, with outdoor shower and toilet, no electricity, and no sink so be prepared & there was a gas stove available for use. But that definitely didn’t stop us from having an amazing time. Loved hearing the coqui frogs all night, the roosters crowing in the morning, and being greeted by yip on our arrivals. Would definitely stay here again if given the chance! Thank you again for your hospitality!

So please know there are animals present than are part of our Ohana. We ask for you to take into consideration that we are a "Working homestead" and we are "Off Grid" so there will be projects much like any farm setting, for this reason we are not suitable for infants or young Children. There are animals that can make noises, there are mulch piles always moving around, compost piles that might not be your cup of tea because they smell, but they certainly make great compost teas to help the flowers grow that smell beautiful right outside your window! There are small projects that may look like clutter, such as seed saving, or canning, but those small clutters grow the plants that fill those jars! On occasion we have people who overlook this reality of nature and our connection to it... possibly because they've seen too many staged reality shows or maybe they have never visited a real farm in person before, but we are grateful that the overwhelming majority of people who have had this attitude have left with an appreciation for nature many expressed they never knew they had!! Those guests have filled our hearts with their kind gratitude :) This is a place full of joyful work for us, so please understand we are a destination for many who love nature, and if you're afraid of dirt or nature in general, this might be a great opportunity to connect with what has always been waiting for you to discover!! Guest accessThe last two blocks into our homestead are rock road as we are a rural location. We will provide a map upon booking with the best access through our Ag-lots for your convenience. Please travel safe and plan for our check-in between 3p.m. and 9p.m. with early and late check-in avalible with approved notice :) Parking is available to either side at the end of the driveway. Other things to noteAlittle about our homestead;Please understand that we are off-grid, and while we've been off grid 8 years now, we've only been hosting stays like this for 3 years, and we see that we are a destination for many visitors looking for a nature bathing kind of experience, but it's not everyone' cup of coffee... Sooo speaking of coffee, if you are looking for things like an General Electric coffee pot or any electric coffee maker (that are literally designed to wastes energy to just make money) we probably aren't the best fit for your stay ... BUT ... If you want to experience home grown Cacao added to fresh ground coffee brewed Italian style to make an amazing Mocha, FRESH, then we can easily make that while showing you some great energy saving ideas to take home :) like make coffee the way our great grandparents made coffee, it tastes better and is really easier than one may think! We share some toasted homemade sourdough bread out of fresh harvested stocks too, but it again isn't an energy guzzling shinny toaster that does the toasting, it is a cast iron skillet that we toast on, just like our great grandparents did too... Actually one of my favorite skillets belonged to my Great Grandma, so this is the real deal :) Come up and join us when we turn the commons on at 7a.m. if you're interested. We have very little light pollution which will afford beautiful star gazing on clear nights, and epic full moons!! But this means that you should use a flashlight or headlamp which we can provide at your leisure. We don't poop in a bucket in the woods, we actually have a working toilet, and Hot water for showers, a gas powered full range stove. But we also compost and make methane for 100% green energy use... There are chickens and goats, parrots, Dogs & Cats. We have been told by some that it is too cluttered, and by others you make me our home look clean our kitchen table (3'x9') always has some sort of a project on it. One guest said they were so happy to see so much going on as they sat watching us make bread, while another was upset that they didn't have a private kitchen. We feel we are very affordable for what we have to share, and if you feel this description will not fit your needs, then please don't book us because we're affordable. Trust us if we could offer a private kitchen it would only raise our price. We really hope more than anything to share and inspire what a homestead is, and that even in a suburb, or a rural apartment there are small things we can do to save energy and bring ourselves closer to nature!!
