Accommodations
The abundance of this land and the simplicity and grace of the accommodations are the perfect place for reconnecting to what's really essential and important in life.
Perched between jungle and sea on the raw and enchanting Puna Coastline, Kūaloli is a space for those drawn to nature’s edge—where the elements are alive, the landscape untamed, and transformation is quietly at work.
Over time, it’s become clear: Kūaloli is for those seeking something off the beaten path—away from the crowds, where senses are reawakened by nature. It’s also an unforgettable way to experience the east side of the Big Island in all its wild, untamed beauty.
Set on three lush acres, Kūaloli’s layout reflects its unique spirit. At the back of the property sits the Main House—a 3,600-square-foot architectural sanctuary with soaring ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and a loft-style layout that invites both community and solitude-comfortably sleeping 6 . At the front, three standalone cabins are tucked into the landscape, offering a more secluded and immersive stay close to the elements-1-2 guests per cabin. In total the property can easily accommodate 12 overnight guets.
The property is fully self-sustaining, powered by the sun and nourished by rainwater. While rooted in nature, Kūaloli offers modern comforts—hot showers, Wi-Fi, and well-appointed spaces—allowing guests to experience ease without disconnecting from what’s real. Blending indoor-outdoor living, the spaces invite a slower pace and a deeper connection—where time softens and clarity comes naturally.
Immerse yourself where the boundaries between the self and the
natural world effortlessly dissolve.
Main House
Welcome to the Glass Villa—your haven while visiting the East Side of the Big Island.
With 3,600 square feet of open floor plan, soaring 30-foot ceilings, and floor-to-ceiling windows, the Main House invites a powerful sense of connection—both with each other and with the land. Fruit trees, butterflies, and ocean breezes dance about, blurring the lines between indoors and out.
Inspired by the Hawaiian value of ‘ohana, the layout fosters togetherness while offering quiet nooks to retreat and reflect. Rooted in both local tradition and Robin Duryea’s time in Indian ashrams, the design balances collective nourishment with individual restoration.
Though we’re fully off-grid—powered by the sun and sustained by rainwater—the Main House offers modern comforts including electricity, hot showers, Wi-Fi, and a fully equipped kitchen. It comfortably sleeps up to 7 people, with two upstairs bedrooms (King and Queen), several downstairs beds that can be configured as needed, two and a half bathrooms, a luxurious soaking tub, and an invigorating outdoor shower.
Whether you're here for a retreat, a creative sabbatical, or a soulful gathering with friends and family, the Main House supports connection, inspiration, delight, and tranquility—wrapped in the untamed beauty of the Big Island.

The Main House is available for $550 per night, plus a $200 cleaning fee. A refundable $500 security deposit is required to confirm your stay.

Pavilion: Cabin Facilities
The Pavilion — The Communal Hub For Cabin Guests
Just steps from the cabins, the Pavilion is a welcoming gathering space for our cabin guests. This open-air structure includes a shared outdoor kitchen, dining area, lounge space, showers, and bathrooms—offering comfort and ease in a setting designed to slow you down.
Overlooking a blooming lotus pond and surrounded by coconut, noni, and mature cashew trees, the Pavilion invites you to settle in and enjoy the rhythm of the land. Delight in the simple beauty of wild pigs meandering by, bullfrogs croaking at night, and butterflies dancing through the trees.
More than just a kitchen—it’s a place to exhale, connect, and feel the wonder of being immersed in nature.
Cabins
Our cabins are a cozy resting spot for those exploring the east side of the island. And, for those with an adventurous spirit seeking to re-align with nature and simplicity.
Cabins (Jungalows) — Simple and Peaceful
Our three standalone cabins—lovingly referred to as Jungalows—offer a quiet, grounded place to return to yourself. Each one radiates warmth and simplicity, inviting you to unplug from the noise and reconnect with the rhythm of the land.
Open-air by design, each cabin features solid half walls and screened upper panels, allowing the trade winds to move through and the sounds of the ocean and jungle to lull you into deeper rest. You'll feel fully immersed in the elements while remaining protected and comfortable.
Blending natural materials with modern comforts, the cabins are ideal for solo travelers or pairs, with the option of one or two beds per space. Each includes a private lanai with outdoor seating—perfect for morning tea, journaling, or stargazing at night.
And yes, you’ll have internet. With Starlink available in the cabins, you can stay connected as needed while still enjoying a digital detox vibe when you choose. These spaces are designed to offer rest, presence, and a deeper experience of the land.
Booking Information
Cabins are $150 per night and include access to all shared amenities.
