Unique Home and Coastline Views

The refuge

Welcome to The Refuge—a rare gem where beauty, comfort, and nature come together in perfect harmony. Our spacious and uniquely designed living areas are thoughtfully appointed with modern décor, including Restoration Hardware couches and artistic, reclaimed furnishings that create a warm, relaxing atmosphere. Soaring ceilings and abundant natural light fill the home with uplifting energy, while the multi-level layout offers plenty of cozy nooks and open spaces for both connection and quiet retreat. There’s truly nothing like it.



Step outside onto your private lanai and deck, where sweeping views stretch from the slopes of Mauna Loa to the coastline and the sacred Place of Refuge. Just minutes away, you’ll find some of Hawai‘i’s best swimming, snorkeling, and diving.

Your ’ohana will be on Cloud 9, resting on plush beds with high-quality linens and cozy pillows. We’ve also created several inviting spots for remote work or artistic expression, all supported by lightning-fast Wi-Fi.

The air is rich with the scents of tropical flowers, ripening fruit, and fresh Kona coffee. When the breeze is just right, the aroma of roasting coffee beans drifts through the air, while your skin soaks in the gentle winds and perfect temperatures of the cooler coffee belt lands.

Right outside your door, you’ll find vibrant gardens filled with ginger, hibiscus, and a variety of blooming tropical plants. Depending on the season, you might discover ripe avocados, bananas, guavas, lychee, starfruit, and more—ready for you to enjoy.

The stylish kitchen is a joy to cook in, with large windows that frame views of the garden and ocean. It features sparkling granite countertops, travertine floors, stainless steel appliances, and beautiful lighting that makes both cooking and gathering a pleasure.

The Refuge is a truly special place, and we would be honored to host you in our little slice of paradise. Mahalo for considering a stay with us.
