As 70-year-olds who were looking for alternatives to corporate beach resorts, this was a perfect choice for our first adventure on the Big Island. If you like low-impact tourism, this South Kona Eco-Farm is ideal for a week-or-more of exploring the west side of the island. We filled every day with hikes, beach-lounging, visiting cultural and historical sites, and finding local farmers' markets, road-side farm stands and cafes for take-out local food.
The Tent Cabin is remarkably unique--and wonderful! Comfortable king-sized bed and amazing kitchen on the lanai with a view to the ocean. At our age we were a little leery about stepping outside to find toilets and showers, but we easily got used to it. We would happily come back--even when we're a few more years older! Or if we wait till our 80's, we'll probably select one of the other accommodations with indoor bathroom facilities. The owner and some of the staff were away during our week, so we may have missed some of the orientation and benefits--but this was not a significant issue for our enjoyment during our stay.
