Experience Mo Snell's Coffee Farm House in Holualoa, Hawaii
Welcome to Mo Snell's Coffee Farm House, a hidden gem nestled on the historic Mamalahoa Highway in the picturesque Kona Coffee Belt. This stunning property features a half-acre coffee orchard boasting two hundred thriving trees, surrounding an exquisite one-bedroom farm house, while a cozy studio remains for private use only.
Perched at 1200 feet above sea level on the slopes of the dormant Hualalai Volcano, you will be captivated by the breathtaking vistas of Kona and the expansive Pacific Ocean. The higher elevation provides a refreshing coolness that is a welcome reprieve after a sun-soaked day at the beach.
Enjoy tranquility away from the bustling energy of Kona Town, as this idyllic retreat offers a spacious covered lanai with sliding teak and glass doors that fully open to reveal unobstructed 180-degree ocean views. Adjacent to the lanai, you'll find a 30-foot long saltwater lap pool, perfect for cooling off; please note it is not heated and may feel chilly on overcast days.
The property showcases unique terracing with lava rock and lush landscaping, ensuring privacy and serenity. Designed by renowned Seattle architect Chris Snell, the architecture draws inspiration from traditional Hawaiian hale (homes) and Japanese farmhouses, utilizing local materials such as hand-milled Ohia wood and distinctive lava rock walls. Every detail of the home reflects quality craftsmanship, making it a true masterpiece.
Inside, you'll find a charming bedroom overlooking the serene lap pool and coffee orchard, complete with a ceiling fan and a large west-facing window that invites the beauty of nature indoors. The kitchen features elegant bamboo cabinets paired with sleek black granite counters, while the galvanized metal roof pays homage to the classic corrugated tin roofs of old coffee shacks.
This truly organic farm practice means no pesticides or herbicides are utilized, although you may encounter ants due to the surrounding jungle foliageโrest assured, they will be managed organically upon request. Regular maintenance from a gardener and pool service occurs twice monthly, ensuring your experience remains worry-free.
Your adventure continues just a ten-minute drive down the mountain to Kona Town, where shopping and pristine white sand beaches await for swimming and snorkeling. Don't miss the nearby artistic community of Holualoa, located merely three miles south, filled with charming art galleries and local culture.
If you seek an authentic up-country Kona experience, look no further than my farm. Embrace the sounds of nature as you hear frogs, roosters, and tropical birds that blend harmoniously with the open architecture designed to connect indoor and outdoor living. Note, however, that if you are a particularly light sleeper, you might want to consider another accommodation; earplugs are recommended.
A studio cottage is also situated on the property, but it is not available for rent. I personally stay in the cottage occasionally, ensuring you receive a warm and personal touch during your stay.
Lastly, please be aware: I do not advertise on Craigslist. Any listings there claiming to be my property are fraudulent copies of my VRBO posting.
Thank you for considering Mo Snell's Coffee Farm House for your next getaway in beautiful Hawaii.
