PonoMana Oasis - NEW!! The Serenity Cottage

Welcome to PonoMana Oasis. A perfect and secluded destination if you are coming to Hawaii for a personal retreat, vacation or much-needed rejuvenation.

Our eco-friendly oasis is within minutes of some of the island’s best waters to swim and see whales, dolphins, turtles, and many other amazing marine life.

Here at PonoMana Oasis, the Serenity Cottage is an ideal place to relax, nurture and experience the true mana of the island and Aloha Spirit.

The lush 5 acres of PonoMana Oasis is a private residence and a magical place to experience the Aloha Spirit and connect with the powerful and nurturing nature of Hawaii. The host lives on the property but you will most likely have the Aloha experience that you have the whole place to yourself.

At 950ft feet elevation, you will come to understand why it truly is the ‘perfect elevation’. Not too hot/dry, which it can be in Kona and closer down to the water you get. And it is not too cloudy/rainy, which is common the higher up the mountain you go.

PonoMana Oasis is nestled above the sacred Kealakesua Bay vortex.

Wake up refreshed every morning, immersed in a gentle symphony of bird songs. Enjoy your morning meditation, yoga or fresh PonoMana's Sacred Sip coffee on your private lanai.

Our Serenity Cottage is serene, beautiful and is well-equipped. It is perfect for a personal and transformational self-retreat or private romantic getaway.

When you step out on your own private lanai and feel the breezes, you will experience what a perfect setting PonoMana Oasis is to support the type of rejuvenation many seek when coming to the Big Island.

Our private 5-acres is a sacred, eco-friendly (chemical/toxin free) private property well protected by storms the sacred pali (hillside) where ancient Hawaiian Kings and Queens are buried and Mauna Loa.

PonoMana Oasis is in direct alignment of the powerful energy lines and vortex where the Earth manifests strong healing and guiding energies. Ancient Hawaiians used these Earth energies as part of their own religious and spiritual quests. These same energies are equally available to us today if we respect, align and honor them. These earth energies that permeate our Sanctuary may aid in indescribable transformations.

Visit our website for more about this amazing energy alignment of our oasis at PonoMana Oasis.

We were upgraded to a different cottage that was larger. Our problem was that as we looked at places, I looked for an oven. The upgrade cottage did not have an oven. When we contacted the host about it, there was a toaster oven brought to us and it all worked out great. We liked the location with everything we wanted to do fairly close.

Serene and lovely

This is a beautiful retreat in a beautiful location! There's really nothing to compare with sitting on the lanai, quietly watching the sun set over the bay. This house is peaceful and secluded... the perfect spot if you're looking to get away, but close enough to Kona to use as home base for exploring the island. If you're looking for the typical Hawaiian resort, this isn't going to be the place for you, but if you're comfortable with having a few geckos running around, you'll be very happy here.
