7.5-Acre Sustainable Organic Farm With 2 Homes and Multiple Dwellings in South Kona
Honaunau Farm, a 7.5-acre sustainable permaculture estate in South Kona, Hawai’i, offers an extraordinary blend of organic farming, biodiversity, and serene living. This unique property serves as both a fully operational permaculture farm and an idyllic retreat, featuring two homes and multiple dwellings, all surrounded by abundant tropical gardens, medicinal plants, and fruit trees, a botanical experience to behold in person.
The property’s main house is a 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence with a wellness area that includes an infrared sauna and an outdoor shower. The recently updated kitchen features basalt countertops, modern appliances, and a copper farm sink, while the living spaces focus on sweeping views of Pu’uhonua O’Honaunau and Kealakekua Bay from the covered lanai at an elevation of 1,400 feet. The property is perfectly positioned for expansive ocean views and stunning sunsets throughout the year.
Beyond the main house, guests can enjoy the private studio “Tea House,” perched on a hillside, or the nearby “Tent Cottage” with an ocean-view lanai. These additional dwellings offer a sense of privacy while remaining connected to the beauty of the farm’s landscape, which includes macadamia nut orchards, exotic fruit trees, vegetable gardens, and tropical flowers. The grounds are home to various farm animals, including sheep, goats, and ducks, contributing to the property’s thriving ecosystem.
The Ohana house is a 2-bedroom, 1-bath dwelling accessible via a separate driveway, featuring a large lanai with ocean views and a remodeled kitchen and bathroom. Below, there’s an additional kitchen, gathering space, bathroom, and outdoor shower. Nestled in the lush gardens nearby is a cozy studio “Hale,” along with three off-grid cabins that offer additional privacy and living spaces.
A recent addition to the farm is the 20′ x 40′ covered deck, located at the top of the property to fully capture the breathtaking views. This new space is perfectly designed for events and gatherings, making it an ideal spot for hosting retreats, celebrations, or family get-togethers while taking in the stunning scenery of the coastline and surrounding landscape. The event deck roof also feeds a 15,000-gallon rainwater catchment tank part of the 32,000 gal system on the farm. Click here to see the 3-D Matterport tour.
