Kona Cloud Forest Guest House ~ 3 Bedrooms ~ Your Ideal Retreat Awaits

Welcome to the Kona Cloud Forest Guest House, a stunning two-story home that features three bedrooms and is perfectly situated amidst the lush native forests on the slopes of Hualalai. Here, you can enjoy breathtaking mountain and ocean views, all while being just a short drive from the vibrant town of Kona, only seven miles away, as well as Kona International Airport, which is approximately a 14-minute ride.

This enchanting guest house is located directly across from the main family residence. On the ground floor, you will find a full-size bathroom, kitchen, washer/dryer, and comfortable sitting and dining areas. Ascend the staircase to discover three cozy bedrooms and a welcoming living room that offers picturesque views of the garden and ocean. This space serves as a perfect sanctuary for families or groups seeking a refreshing escape within an ancient Hawaiian forest, surrounded by native flora and fauna. Indulge in the option of either indoor or outdoor showers to enhance your tropical experience.

Your outdoor experience is further enhanced with a dedicated seating and dining area that includes a spacious hammock, a dining table, and a fire table available for an additional propane fee. Accommodating up to eight guests comfortably, this guest house boasts three queen beds and a pull-out sofa bed (additional guests incur a charge of $20 per person, per night). Should you have a larger party, we invite you to reach out for links to another nearby unit capable of hosting up to four guests.

While staying here, take delight in the captivating photography of Denise Bird, showcased at Blue Sea Artisans Gallery. For any questions or assistance, please don't hesitate to message us through the app or text; however, we kindly ask that you refrain from approaching the main home for privacy reasons.

This unique opportunity allows you to experience one of the few "cloud forests" in the USA! Unlike humid rainforests, cloud forests are characterized by cooler elevations often enveloped in a dreamlike mist, creating a serene atmosphere. You will find yourself surrounded by a vibrant Hawaiian ecosystem featuring awapuhi, heliconia, orchids, guava, avocado, and lehua.

Conveniently located, Kona International Airport is just 7.5 miles away, making transportation effortless (we highly recommend renting a car or using a rideshare service). Explore the wonders of Mountain Thunder Coffee Farm nearby, where free guided tours offer insights into their exclusive Private Reserve coffee, alongside captivating walking tours through lava tubes.

If you're planning a special event, consider Pa’ina Place, an idyllic venue set in a garden setting designed for weddings and private gatherings. Adventurers will appreciate the proximity of Kaloko Cloud Forest Guided Walking Tours and hiking trails such as the renowned Makāula 'O'oma Trails, including the public Long Loop “Jurassic” Trail.

Beach enthusiasts can bask in the sun and surf at King Kamehameha Beach or Kailua Pear, both just 6.5 miles away, while Pine Trees surfing beach is a mere 8.7 miles. Despite the cool serenity of the forest, you'll be amazed at how centrally located you are, with Costco conveniently located just down the hill.

To ensure a hassle-free stay, we provide a starter kit with essential supplies (two rolls of toilet paper, three dishwasher pods, three laundry pods, napkins, and garbage bags) upon arrival. Should you need additional groceries, a convenience mart (Matsuyama’s Store) is just one mile north along the main highway.

When choosing to stay at this guest house, you support a local family residing in this beautiful island community, positively impacting the Hawaiian economy. Our team of professionals is committed to making your stay a memorable one.

We kindly request you to remove shoes and all sand before entering the unit. Please note that parties, smoking, and non-registered guests are not permitted on the property. To maintain safety for the host family’s children and pets, wandering beyond the garden area immediately adjacent to the rental home is prohibited. Additionally, for the safety of your little ones, remember to lock tall ocean-facing windows.

Upon checkout, please assist us by following these guidelines:

  • Dispose of all trash in tied bags in the bins outside the carport—no loose trash, please.
  • Leave towels piled together; no need to strip beds.

With children living on-site, we kindly ask that you drive slowly in the driveway (no more than 5 mph). Quiet hours begin at 10:00 pm to ensure a peaceful retreat for all guests.
