Royal Palm Cottage/5 mins from beach/Akaka Falls/Private Lanai

Situated on an 8.5 acre exotic fruit farm along the Hamakua Coast, Royal Palm Cottage will provide you real feeling of Hawaii country living. A view of Mauna Kea greets you as you drive up Chin Chuck Road, known for the well manicured, 10 acre farm lots. As you enter the estate you will marvel at the breathtaking views of mature Royal Palms, 30 foot tall Black Bamboo, ocean views and many tropical Hawaiian flowers. Famed Akaka Falls State park is just 6 miles away. The night skies are perfect for stargazing. As the sun rises, common country sounds of rain, roosters, cows, birds, owls, hawks, coqui frogs & dogs can be heard. We have a designated path with chairs set up for watching the sun rise. A boarding dog Kennel shares a portion of the property. Barking can be heard 8-10 am during feeding times or if wild pigs are roaming. It is best if our guests are lovers of dogs, man's best friend.

The evenings are perfect for star gazing thru the royal palms.

A Romantic, newly built private 1 bedroom, 1 bath with tiled shower, kitchenette, dinning area and living room will welcome you home after a day of exploring. Amenities include a Propane Fire pit, BBQ grill, dry sauna, Koa wood floors, queen bed, air conditioning, ceiling fan, sofa that converts to a single bed, dimmable lights and a private lanai. The colors are cool and relaxing for the nature enthusiast. Perfect for a lovely romantic retreat, anniversary, Honeymoon or just a visit on the Hamakua side of the Big island.

1 or 2 bed room cottage studio will be available to book 11-1-2022. inquire for details.

Just 15 miles from Hilo, 30 miles from Waipio Valley, 1 hour from the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. Over 200 mature fruit trees are on property. Seasonal Lychee, Emperor Lychee, Rambuton, Mango, Mangosteen, Atemoya and Papaya will be included in the welcome/Breakfast fruit bowl. We may have a litter of puppies 2-3 times a year on the property. Puppy noises , some barking can be heard during business hours, feeding times 8-10.
