Aloha Suites ~ 2 Bedrooms~ Cloud Forest
Welcome to Aloha Suites, a completely private retreat with its own entrance, two bedrooms, one bathroom, and no shared spaces. Originally built as an ʻohana unit (Hawaiian for in-law quarters), this serene hideaway is just 7.5 miles from Kona International Airport and 6 miles from the heart of Kona town. Nestled among the native forestry on the peaceful slopes of Hualālai, the retreat offers both mountain and ocean views.
The unit is fully private, with only one common wall connected to the host’s garage (double-locked at all times for your security and privacy).
Inside the Retreat Room 1: Spacious bedroom with a king-size bed, Hawaiian artwork, TV sitting area, and a sleeper sofa for optional additional sleeping space. Room 2: Across the hall, featuring a king-size bed, closet, and recliner chair. Bathroom: A spacious private bathroom (see photos). Kitchenette: Small counter area with microwave, mini-fridge, toaster, and coffee maker—similar to a standard hotel setup. Please note there is no stove, oven, washer, or dryer.
Property & Parking One dedicated parking stall is located directly in front of the unit, marked with orange cones. The property spans three acres, including part of the Hawaiʻi forest reserve, so you’ll be surrounded by the cool, misty beauty of the only cloud forest in the U.S. Unlike tropical rainforests, cloud forests sit at higher elevations and are often draped in dreamlike mist. Expect the soothing sounds of nature—birds, breezes, and occasional coqui frogs.
Location Highlights Hiking: Makāula ʻOʻoma Trails (including the “Jurassic” Loop) are nearby. Coffee Tours: Mountain Thunder Coffee Farm offers free guided tours and lava tubes. Nature & Culture: Kaloko Cloud Forest walking tours and Paʻina Place event venue are a short drive away. Beaches: King Kamehameha Beach (6.5 miles), Kailua Pier, and Pine Trees surf beach (8.7 miles). Convenience: Costco is just 6 miles down the hill—yet you’ll feel worlds away in this serene forest setting.
Guest Experience Shampoo, conditioner, towels, and beach towels provided. Please bring any additional amenities you may need. Early check-in requests are passed to our cleaning team and approved only if the unit is ready. Only registered guests are permitted on the property.
Host & Property Notes Our family lives on the property but respects your privacy—interaction is minimal. We’ll simply wave hello if we see you in passing. Please message us through the app for any assistance.
We do have a small family dog (about 24 lbs). He is friendly and kept within an invisible fence near the main house; he does not enter guest areas. For safety, we ask that guests remain within the area immediately surrounding Aloha Suites and not wander into other parts of the property.
E kipa mai—come visit, and experience the magic of Kona’s cloud forest! Please remove shoes and remove ALL sand from feet and inside swimwear before entering the unit. There is a water hose to the side of the house for your use to rinse off. No parties, no smoking, registered guests only on property.
For your safety as well as the privacy of the host familyʻs children and their pets, please do not wander around the property beyond the garden area immediately outside your rental.
Upon checkout, please do the following: -Leave all trash in the trash can in the unit. No loose trash. -Place all used towels in one pile.
The hosts live on property with children. Please DRIVE SLOWLY in the driveway, no more than 5 mph. Thank you!

Highly recommend- great hosts, great property
We loved our stay here! It is a kid friendly property that checked all our boxes and exceeded our expectations. We were looking for an affordable place that was spacious for my family of 4- me, my husband and our 2 children, ages 5 and 3. With 2 bedrooms, 2 king beds and a living room area it was more than enough space. Parking is extremely convenient, the stall is literally right outside the front door. The bathroom is spacious and has a detachable handheld shower head which is very helpful if you have younger kids. In addition to all these great attributes, the property managers were nothing short of amazing. We are so grateful for their hospitality and kindness. The day we scheduled to check in, Hawaii was hit by a huge storm. Noella reached out to us and arranged for the check-in to be as easy as possible. It was an amazingly kind gesture that was a bright spot during a very stressful travel day. Thank you Noella and Rick for an incredible stay!

Good efficiency space but needs new beds and towels
The property was as listed and served our purposes, as we weren’t in the unit much. The owner was very responsive and fixed the TV right off the bat. The beds were way too soft and the towels were like sandpaper. Could use an upgrade for both. Other than that it served our needs.
