The original Hulili Farm Cottage (pronounced who-lee-lee) has become a popular choice among travelers seeking tranquility amidst nature's beauty. For those whose desired dates are booked, be sure to check out our new listing, Pineapple Cottage (#1355789), to find the perfect fit for your stay.

You will be captivated by the 'sweeping, unspoiled views' that surround you from every angle. Imagine watching the sun and moon rise over the ocean while you unwind on your cozy rocking chair or the inviting swinging bed on the lanai. The gentle bird songs create a peaceful soundtrack as you enjoy this private farm located at the end of a serene country road.

The cottage itself is bright, clean, and equipped with all the essentials. The distinctive 'Bamboo Sleeping Chamber' features a luxurious king-size 'sleep number' bed with adjustable firmness settings. 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!

Enjoy your stay and embrace the Aloha spirit!

Warm regards,
Todd and Madeleine
