Surrounded by the island jungle and timeless beauty, this serene escape blends heritage charm with modern comfort. Inside, you’ll find original floors, moldings, trims, and weighted wood sash windows that reflect the craftsmanship of a bygone era. Enjoy shared pool access, sip coffee on the lanai, or simply relax to the sounds of nature. We are surrounded by about ten acres of luscious botanical gardens, meadows, orchards, and jungle, preserving its unique plantation ambiance. It allows you to connect with the charm of a past simpler life, as it used to be a century ago on the Island. Our estate is rich in island history that dates back beyond the plantation era to ancient Hawaiian legends and fairytales. The land was originally owned by King William Charles Lunalilo. The land was then purchased by the Shipman Family and the main residence was built in 1898 as the home to the Ola'a Sugar Planation Manager. It was sold by the Shipman Family in the 1980's after the collapse of the Hawai'i sugar industry and has been privately owned since that time. The estate has been featured in books, films, commercials and television shows. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach towels ### Pool/Spa - Communal pool - Fenced private pool - Outdoor pool ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Car required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Ice maker - Lobster/crab pot - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden - Porch/lanai ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - 13 steps to reach entrance - Area rugs in public areas - Hardwood flooring in public areas - No lift - Smoke-free property - Note from host: Smoking allowed on lanai ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board - Meal delivery service ### Location highlights - In a rural location - Near a zoo - Near an outlet shopping centre - Near the marina ### Things to do - Bicycles - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Sailing nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Snorkelling nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Whale watching nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Bicycles - Garden - Unit size: 1,000 square feet ## Similar properties ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/76000000/75970000/75969700/75969695/d3c20423.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Private guest house on gorgeous tropical 3 acre estate perfect central location.
