Modern meets vintage vibes in this dreamy hideaway designed for those enamored by the ocean's allure.

Whether you're curling up in your Bamboo Wave Bed, Snuggling on the Sofa, or Reading while Rocking in your hammock, you'll always be in sight of where Ocean meets Sky.

Just 20 minutes south of Kona, a restful oasis awaits you in Old Hawaii, a place where time stands still. We invite you to stay and dream in our Homage to the Sea.

ENGAGE YOUR SENSES

You deserve for your vacation to be swell.

You seek a place of rest & relaxation. You desire something out of the ordinary that will live on in your memories. That quest has led you here.

Our goal is to exceed your expectations by providing a modernly styled, impeccably clean and comfortable eco-friendly space that satisfies all your senses.

SEE

This private suite features panoramic ocean & sunset views throughout. The color blue ties together the ocean theme, reaching across exterior walls, ocean glass accents and the massive wave mural that is the focal point. Gorgeous modern decor, teak & bamboo chairs and reclaimed furnishings set the stage for beauty and relaxation. Your stunning new bathroom decked out with shiny subway tiles, a window seat and up-cycled tables gives you all the feels.

TOUCH

Nested inside your wave bed, you'll be on cloud 9 laying upon your plush pillow top queen bed, high end linens and down filled pillows. Your skin will delight in the balmy breezes and perfect temperatures of the cooler coffee lands.

TASTE

Complimentary tea and coffee are just two of many delights awaiting your palate. Pick fresh papaya right off your deck or stroll the acre of land for ripe avocados, bananas, guavas, lychee and starfruit.

SMELL

The aromas of tropical fruits and flowers permeate the air. Tropical ginger and hibiscus flowers grow in the garden just outside your french doors. And sometimes, when the wind is just right, whiffs of roasting Kona coffee imbue the air.

HEAR

Just outside your door, the rhythm of the jungle is alive. Songbirds awaken you to each new day, hens cluck and coo, and a chorus of Caribbean coqui frogs sing you to sleep.

Our honeymoon stay at Maria & Shaheer’s place was so wonderful. They are such generous and loving hosts, we really felt at home and welcome there. The space itself has a hip vibe, an incredible view and is super comfortable. We used the kitchen to cook most of our breakfasts and dinners before & after our adventures. We enjoyed the fresh fruit from the property, including multiple enormous butter avocados! We made use of the beach towels, snorkels & fins and all their local tips. Already looking forward to visiting the Big Island again and would stay there again in a heartbeat.
