My stay at T’s farm was in many ways the highlight of my trip to the Big Island (he had stiff competition as the Kilauea volcano had just erupted and lava was flowing!). It was more than just a stay and throughout my vacation in Hawaii it was the only lodging that I actually spent time at. He has built the farm over the 6 years he’s been there and created a truly sustainable ecosystem. He showed me around the property, which includes fruit and flower trees, coffee plants, ducks, goats, sheep, and a fish pond. It was very inspirational and educational. Staying there was an absolute pleasure and I had the best sleep there during my time in Hawaii. If you want to be in touch with nature, learn from a native, and distance yourself from the busy cities and other tourists, I highly recommend staying here.
