About This Home
Palekana Awa: A Sanctuary of Spirit and Sustainability
Nestled on 5.68 acres of tropical abundance, Palekana Awa offers sweeping 180-degree ocean views of the Pacific Ocean and dramatic coastline - an invitation to live in harmony with nature. This private retreat is a haven of flowering trees, palms, herb gardens, and ancient Ohia thriving among lava formations. Sunrise and sunset bring a daily symphony of birdsong.
The custom-built home sits 1/3 into the land, ensuring complete privacy and ocean views from nearly every room. Locally harvested Ohia posts welcome you into the entry lanai. Inside, hardwood floors and custom wood cabinetry create warmth and character. The kitchen flows into the living room, while the bathroom features a mango countertop, slate floors, and a walk-in tile shower.
A flexible office/2nd bedroom open through shoji doors to a 66 sq ft covered lanai - perfect for morning tea or evening stargazing. Between the living area and primary suite, a 275 sf all-weather lanai invites dining and abundant natural light with garden and ocean views.
Sustainability and Stewardship are yours:
Owned Solar system with new batteries
Two water catchment tanks totaling 13,000 gal with filtration
Starlink internet for reliable off-grid connectivity
432 SF carport/barn for equipment and storage
20x15 Greenhouse for year-round cultivation
144 SF ADU for guests or caretakers
Expansive lawns for play, rest, and ceremony.
This is a place where rainfall nourishes the land at night, sunshine fills the days, and the air is among the freshest on Earth. Whether you are a homestead, a healing retreat, or a regenerative farm, Palekana Awa offers you a rare blend of seclusion and connection!
Sundari spa is across the road for monthly wellness memberships. Pahoa is a short 10 minute drive, and Hilo is a 40 minute drive away.
