Inside you'll also find a full-size futon, while the queen-size 'hanging bed' on the lanai has quickly become a guest favorite for relaxing, reading, or napping while gently swaying in the breeze.

Your comfort continues with a walk-in shower and pedestal sink in the cottage bath, as well as convenient laundry facilities just steps away. Nature lovers will appreciate the enormous avocado tree, affectionately named Ms. Caddo, which provides delicious fruits in season, along with the sweet treat of 'apple' bananas often seen hanging nearby. Just bring some groceries for the ultimate stay.

We invite you to read through our glowing guest comments, which truly capture the essence of staying at Hulili Farm. Here, you'll experience seclusion, peace, and the joy of a tropical paradise.

The cottage is stocked with an essential guidebook: 'Hawaii, The Big Island Revealed,' perfect for planning your adventures around Hilo and beyond.

For those wanting to blend relaxation with connectivity, we have recently upgraded to fiber internet throughout the farm. But don’t worry, your secret is safe with us!

Summary: The hosts are great and the accommodations are truly amazing! If you like staying off the beaten path then this is for you. Private, well maintained, central to roads for travel around the island, and numerous fresh, fantastic tasting organic fruit:). Thus is my second time staying and would most certainly return if Hawaii calls again.
