This is a beautiful newer build with great attention to detail. This includes a private bedroom, bathroom and gourmet kitchen with everything you could possibly need for a perfect vacation. This property is 10 blocks from high-cliff ocean, on the dead-end side of the street, with very little traffic. The lanai overlooks our 1-acre avocado orchard with 60 avocado trees, lychee, papaya, mango, banana, pineapple, mandarin, spinach and lemongrass. Please ask my husband, Jason, what is ripe. There are no added fees or hidden costs!!!! We include everything so that there are no surprises!! However, please note that AirBnB does add a fee to all bookings, over which I have absolutely no control. We have stayed in AirBnBs and wanted this to simply be the best, most thoughtful place you could ever wish for. We have picked only the finest quality mattresses, sheets and pillows for your comfort. There is no need to lug a crib or highchair as we supply both. We also supply high-quality snorkeling gear, a cooler with ice packs, plush beach towels, beach blanket and mat, beach umbrella, an exercise mat for yoga, travel coffee mugs and stainless water bottles for you to borrow. There are several card games, Scrabble, stationary, puzzles, coloring books and reading books for you to enjoy on the quieter days. The kitchen comes fully stocked with oil, salt and pepper, other spices, teas, coffee, turbinado and coconut sugars and cocoa powder- perfect for making smoothies. Cookware and cutlery are high end. We supply cutlery and dishes for babies and toddlers as well. You have the choice of drip, French press or coffee maker for you coffee enjoyment. There is a toaster, blender, food processor and coffee grinder for all of the gourmet meals you might whip up. We have high-speed internet- enough to stream movies use your phone easily, and browse the internet!! We have 1 cat, Maple, who runs the place. He is incredibly friendly and loves children. If you aren’t fond of cats, just ignore him… Please NO SMOKING anywhere on the property. We are trying to minimize our carbon footprint so please compost all kitchen waste, reuse towels as much as possible and turn off lights and appliances when not in use. PLEASE BE CAREFUL WITH WATER USAGE. We have water catchment and are completely dependent on rainfall. The water is fully filtered and UV’d so it is safe to drink. Also, we are saving up for a complete solar system- you can help us get there faster by being careful with our resources. Mahalo nui loa!!!!! This whole property is yours...one acre of fruiting trees, garden and the house. Jason, my husband from Fiji, lives on the property. He is available anytime. He is working on planting more fruit trees and making a bigger garden. He loves to chat and share his Fijian cooking with you, if you’re interested. Otherwise, you’ll hardly know he is there. PLEASE check with Jason before having other people visit the property. I am available 24 hours a day by phone/text. Text is best for me!! I am a hospice nurse and work nights, so I sleep crazy hours. I will answer emails and texts as soon as possible. Jason, your on-site host is available almost 24/7, but you will hardly know he is there. This is a very quiet neighborhood on the dead-end side of the street, about 25 min from Hilo. If you are from the city, this area will feel rural to you. Lots are 1 acre and not all are built on. There are no street lights so it can be quite dark at night. You will rarely hear cars, only coqui frogs and birds. There are amenities such as sit-down restaurants, grocery store, post office, gas station, McDonald's, Subway, hardware store, laudromat, fruit stand and coffee house in nearby Keaau. There are also amenities in nearby Pahoa. If you are here on Sunday, the Maku’u Market is a must-see/must-experience!!! Drive on 130 towards Pahoa and it’s on the left (it’s quite close to Avocado Acre). You pay a couple of bucks to get in, but it’s so worth it- plenty of different vendors and lunch choices. Lots of locals hang out with their families all day. This is an island experience not to be missed!! Make sure you take cash to get in and buy...some vendors don’t take credit cards. It is best to have a car in this area as public transportation is very limited. There is plenty of parking right next to the house for however many cars you might have. This lovely little house will only accommodate 2 adults, 3 children and a baby/toddler in the crib. Please be sure to fill out the guest summary so that we can have the crib set up for you if you need it. Thank you!!!!
