Cacao-Ocean Room at Hamakua Chocolate Farm

If you ever wanted to experience life on a working Chocolate Farm? – this is your chance! The beautiful Cacao-Ocean Room overlooks the Cacao orchard and Pacific Ocean, has a full ensuite bathroom, Tempurapedic queen sized bed, and is the larger of the 2 rooms we rent. Enjoy modern off-grid life- 100% of our farm’s electricity is supplied by the sun and our delicious water is drawn from our private deep well. It is all about indoor-outdoor living here in Hawaii. Your large, elegant bedroom has great ventilation and plenty of windows, bringing the outside in. But we also want you to enjoy our outdoor spaces as an extension of your room. Our giant covered lanai- just outside the bedroom acts as an additional living and dining room with a beautiful ocean view and gentle tropical breezes to lull you into relaxation. Our comfortable guest rooms are not equipped with TV (to help you unplug), however, you can connect to the complimentary WiFi network and enjoy whatever you want to watch or listen to on your own devices. There is also access to our adjacent chocolate demo kitchen w/ toaster, refrigerator/freezer, microwave, glassware/plates/utensils if you care to prepare your own self-catered meals. We provide complimentary tea or coffee in the mornings. We encourage you to explore and enjoy our cacao orchard, suspension bridge, treehouse, gardens, river and common spaces around the farm. Feel free to take our beach chairs down to the river for a picnic or get lost in a good book. There is a large covered lanai w/ lounges and dining table. If you are interested in more cacao farm-related activities (like Farm Tours and Chocolate Tastings, or Cacao Harvest Events), reach out to us or check out- H (Website hidden by Airbnb) We are often around working on the farm and are happy to provide local tips and advise- if you want that. We are also happy to allow you to have your own space if you prefer to have a intimate interaction-free experience. Both rooms have private keypad entries. If you are interested in more cacao farm-related activities, reach out to us or check out H (Website hidden by Airbnb) Hamakua Chocolate Farm is located in Papaikou- a small village just 8 minutes north of Old Town Hilo- on the Big Island of Hawaii. We are a great jumping off point to explore Hilo Town, the Hilo Farmers Market, numerous waterfalls, botanic gardens, tea farms/tastings, zip lines, local beaches, surf spots, quaint sugar plantation villages and the Volcano National Park and its lava spectacles all along the enchanting Hamakua Coastline. It is best to have a car to stay with us. There is a public bus, but it does not service our private road and it is a long walk to the "bus stop" area. Due to this being a working chocolate farm with electric fences, suspension bridge, unfenced gulches and active farm equipment, we have a no-child under 16 policy. WIFI UPDATE: We are working to get higher speed wifi on the property. We currently use a cell modem that can vary in speed. Normally we can stream movies, but sometimes there is buffering depending on the cell signal. We do have ok cell service in this area which varies depending on your carrier. We apologize in advance for any inconvenience- idillic life on a rural farm!
