Forget your worries in this spacious and serene space! The Kohola (Whale) hut is a large Thai hut. Comfortable for a solo traveler, a couple or a small family. You are surrounded by Tropical Flowers, Mango Trees, Cacao, a Citrus Orchard etc.We are completely off-grid. We have solar hot Rainwater showers and a powerful solar system. Just maybe its time to unplug and connect with the Earth. This is a place where you can forget about the outside world and have deep peace inside.

The space

Other things to note
This is a completely off grid neighborhood. Which is so refreshing to have almost no EMFs. This area is also used as a standard for the freshest air on the planet even with Volcano close by! So if your looking for a cemented place that keeps out all of the elements this may not be your place. It is fully screened and has walls but a gecko or a bug may sneak in. If you want television, large data internet, air conditioning, ( instead of tropical breezes) this may not be be your place. The temperatures are very temperate in this area . 65 to 85 degrees is the norm. We have luxury in the jungle with our state of the art solar system and rain catchment but we still ask that guests be mindful of resources. All of our water is collected from the rain with a 3 filter system and ultra violet filter. It's amazing to be so connected to the sun's energy and using rainwater. You will be close to the elements and experience tropical nature, smells and sounds ( you may want earplugs if your a light sleeper). Much more soothing than city traffic and sirens.
At & T works well on the property. Verizon gets a bar or two w our booster. We do have Starlink internet and ask for $5/day $20 week

The sanctuary is next door at our original property. There's Yoga and Qigong weekly. Inquire with the available hostesses for the schedule. We periodically have private retreats etc. It's a slight possibility the sanctuary won't be available during your stay. Let us know if that is of interest.

Neighborhood highlights

There are local art and music events happening throughout the week. Ecstatic dances on Sundays and Thursdays are Pahoa and Hilo. Open Mic every Monday at the Kava Bar, and Uncle Robert's every Wednesday at Kalapana are still lively events . Makuu Farmers Market is loaded with local produce, crafts and more every Sunday. Kehena Beach, Shipman's Beach, and a few local secret spots are still open to visit for a swim or snorkel. This is authentic Hawaii, an area where time can stand still. There is little to no traffic, very few homes on the coast, canopied trees over the road opening into crashing waves on the black lava!

Gray and I are so grateful to be stewards of this magical land! We love to do our best to create a wonderful experience for our guests. Looking forward to meeting you and sharing the beauty, peace and calm of this land with you. We love to start our day with a quiet walk in the jungle and our way back gather produce from our neighborhood fruit stands. We enjoy the quiet laid back vibe we have on this side of the island and one of the cleanest airs on the planet! Our favorite part of this property is all the fruit trees and the plush landscape !
