Hawaii Paradise Found Vacation Rental

Once you pass through the private gate into this beautiful Indonesian-inspired eleven acre compound of ancient Hawaiian forest and extensive ornamental palms & orchids, you will be transported to a tropical oasis of tranquility.
The estate "Paradise Found" features three bedrooms suites, each with its own private bathroom.

The Master Suite (Palm Suite) is located steps away from the main house in a private separate pavilion.

Downstairs, the main house has two elegantly appointed bedroom suites (Pineapple Suite & Lilikoi Suite), each with its own private spacious bathrooms and showers, bamboo cabinets, custom art-work, high-end fixtures, sliding pocket doors, 10 foot high ceilings, and overlooking the courtyard gardens, and ocean beyond. Sunrises on the private covered 10' wide lanai are the perfect spot to enjoy morning coffee and plan the adventures that await your stay.

The Pineapple Suite features a Queen Size bed, while the Lilikoi Suite offers two twin beds for maximum flexibility and comfort. The linens are all high thread count cotton, and towels are soft and sumptuous.

The upstairs living and dining area of the main house is an elegant, serene space with soaring 24' high ceilings, wide-plank Acacia wood floors, white-washed Douglas fir walls and ceilings, with commanding views of the Pacific ocean over the professionally landscaped gardens and coconut palm tree grove. Custom art from local artists adorns the walls. You can choose to lounge indoors on the comfortable and casual tropical elephant bamboo couches, and put your feet up on a custom, locally made Monkey Pod slab coffee table. Or you may prefer to nap or enjoy cocktails in the tropical rattan sitting area on the spacious covered lanai outdoors. When it's time to dine, you can enjoy your meal indoors and admire the organic feel of a locally produced Ohia tree trunk dining room table base, or you may prefer to dine outdoors on a lovely marble table on the lanai overlooking the ocean and the tropical courtyard garden below.

The East Side of the Big Island is a foodies' paradise. Take advantage of the abundant local produce, grass fed beef, amazing fresh fish, and numerous farmers markets to enjoy Hawaii's culinary diversity and abundance. The fully equipped gourmet kitchen, with high-end stainless steel appliances (oven and cooktop, refrigerator, garbage disposal, and dishwasher), offers every convenience a professional chef or home cook needs. The upstairs powder room features a marble lotus flower sink, bamboo vanity and high end finishes.

The main home frames the ocean views through an amazing 16 foot wide, custom Indonesian sliding wood and capiz shell "barn door" with separate screens opening onto the 10' wide wrap around lanai with vintage furnishings and fabrics. The outdoor areas are lit with hand crafted Balinese pendant lamps and hand forged copper sconces for chilled out, relaxing entertaining.

The upstairs loft is a great place to enjoy Netflix, Apple TV or Amazon Prime, or Pandora Radio from a wide screen digital Internet TV. Free WiFi and cell phone connectivity are included. The loft offers a cozy spot to read and relax or to do yoga. Or you may just want to search the ocean for whales from this highest point in the house with commanding views.

You can't beat the extra privacy and comfort offered by taking a few short steps to your own private Master Suite (Palm Suite). This private oasis, separate from the main house, has soaring 16 foot high ceilings, Indonesian Capiz Shell and Mahogany sliding doors, ocean views, a private bath, and outdoor shower, as well as covered lanais with Balinese pendant lighting. You can gaze at the courtyard garden, the organic citrus tree grove, the ocean, or at custom artwork from local artists. Daytime or nighttime you will want to enjoy your own private deck for stargazing or sun-bathing.

Since you and your guests will be the only people on the 11 acre gated, park-like estate, you will want to stroll through the lush tropical gardens around the house. From there, you can walk down the Vireya (Tropical Rhododendron) Trail that meanders through the Ohi'a and Uluhe forest. It comes ablaze with color from both the Lehua flowers and from the vivid reds, oranges, pinks and yellows on the Vireyas and other flowering plants. The trail comes out at the bottom of the property, and leads you back to the house through a grove of 400 coconut palm trees. You may see some of the sacred white owls, or watch the hawks that live on the property. It's tough to describe just how serene the tropical breezes are when they blow through a grove of 400 palm trees!
