Very private and serene family setting on Lyman Kona Coffee Farms. At 2,000 ft elevation, you have sweeping and breathtaking views of many miles of Pacific Ocean and gorgeous mango colored sunsets. Average temperature is in the mid-70s all year. Ranch-style BnB built 2004; warm bamboo hardwood floors, insulated for sound throughout; doors and trim are Mahogany. Four Guest Rooms named after Hawai'ian marine animals. Hans, Marsha (and Karen) are owner/operators of the farm, as well as the Innkeepers, and live on the premises in their own new house. After comfortable and peaceful nights, enjoy the morning on your Lanai. There, and overlooking our 3,200 tree Kona Coffee farm (free Kona Coffee Eco-Tour on request), you can take in our spectacular ocean view while munching your banana-macadamia nut pancakes and star fruit filled papaya boat. See miles of coast, check out the surf line, count the boats, or use our binoculars to watch the multitude of birds, among them wild turkeys and the endangered and regal Hawaiian Hawk. Then drive off to your day of diving or biking, Volcano watching or golfing, visiting the Mauna Kea observatory, deep sea fishing or kayaking. Shop and dine in Kona just 15 minutes away, explore historical sites or mosey through quaint artist villages. Later, have a drink on the lanai, and be awed by our miraculously colorful mango sunsets.
Aloha, Hans and Marsha Eckert
