3-star bed and breakfast with on-site organic coffee farm and panoramic ocean views
Overview
Hale Hualalai is a 3-star bed and breakfast in Kailua-Kona that operates its own organic coffee farm and offers farm-to-table breakfasts. The property sits on a hillside overlooking the ocean and the Kona Coffee District, away from the busy resort areas. Guests have access to free private parking and free WiFi throughout the stay.
Accommodations
The hotel has two identical Deluxe King Studios, each with a private entrance, a private bathroom with a Jacuzzi bathtub and a big tile shower, and a private lanai. Each suite offers a spacious sitting area, a King-size bed, and direct west-facing views over the farm and ocean. The rooms are equipped with a sofa, an electric kettle, and carpeted floors, and do not require air conditioning due to the cool hilltop elevation.
Dining
Breakfast is served daily and prepared by the host, a former professional chef, using ingredients sourced from the on-site farm and local producers. Typical dishes include guava French toast with coconut topping, fresh omelets, and fruit from the property. The breakfast is served on the lanai with views of the ocean and the farm.
On-Site Farm and Grounds
The property practices permaculture and includes an organic coffee farm, fruit trees, and free-ranging chickens that provide fresh eggs. Guests can observe cows, geckos, and a variety of bird species from the private porch. The grounds also feature a terrace and a lush garden with a rich ecosystem.

Nearby attractions include Kaloko-Honokohau National Historic Park (9 km), Kealakekua Bay (28 km), and Ahu'Ena Heiau (7 km). The hotel is located in the Kona Coffee District, surrounded by coffee plantations and offering easy access to coffee tasting tours.

“Tucked away amid coffee plantations, this B&B offers a tranquil escape, where the chef-prepared breakfasts shine. The suites are generous, each with its own balcony, framing dreamy views of the farm and the distant sea. It's a genuine slice of Hawaii, far from the resort crowds.”
