Rare opportunity to take the helm of an established Kona Coast farm
Business Description
Honaunau Farms represents an exceptional opportunity to acquire a fully operational, income producing agricultural and hospitality business in one of Hawaii Island’s most culturally rich and naturally stunning regions. Located in South Kona near the historic community of Honaunau, this turnkey property blends sustainable farming, thoughtfully designed accommodations, and experiential tourism into a cohesive EcoBoutique enterprise. More than land and buildings, Honaunau Farms is a living, breathing business with established systems, diversified revenue streams, and a clear brand identity rooted in stewardship of the land (aina), regenerative practices, and authentic guest experiences. These elements operate in a synergistic way, reinforcing one another to create both operational efficiency and a compelling guest offering. The farm has been intentionally developed to appeal to today’s conscious traveler and investor—those seeking profitability aligned with environmental responsibility, cultural respect, and long term resilience. This offering is ideally suited for an owner operator, impact investor, hospitality group, or legacy buyer seeking a lifestyle driven business asset with proven income, expansion potential, and intrinsic land value. Nestled in the lush uplands of South Kona, Honaunau Farms enjoys a temperate climate, rich volcanic soils, and sweeping views that capture the essence of rural Hawaii. The property’s elevation provides cooler evenings, abundant rainfall balanced by sunshine, and ideal growing conditions for a wide range of tropical and subtropical crops. The surrounding area is internationally recognized for its cultural and ecological significance. Nearby Puuhonua o Honaunau National Historical Park, Kealakekua Bay, and the broader Kona coffee belt draw visitors seeking meaningful connections to Hawaii’s history, land, and people. This context enhances the farm’s appeal as a destination rooted in authenticity rather than mass tourism. Despite its tranquil setting, the farm remains accessible to Kona International Airport, regional services, and established tourism corridors—offering the perfect balance between seclusion and connectivity. The property integrates: - Working agricultural landscapes - Tastefully designed rental accommodations - Outdoor gathering and relaxation spaces - Educational and experiential elements tied to farming and sustainability. Together, these components and the overall experience are greater than the sum of its parts. Honaunau Farms stands out as a business property because it is not dependent on a single revenue source. Instead, it benefits from a layered income model that includes: - Short term rental income - Farm related revenue - Ancillary experiential or creative uses. A new owner may choose to: - Continue current production - Expand into agritourism experiences - Develop farm to table offerings - Introduce branded products - Lease or partner with specialty growers. This diversification enhances financial stability and allows the farm to adapt to market shifts, creating a synergistic business model that balances lifestyle, resilience, and return on investment. Because the farm already has infrastructure, brand positioning, and demand, future enhancements can build on a strong foundation rather than starting from scratch. At its core, Honaunau Farms reflects Hawaii values of malma aina—caring for the land—while operating as a modern, viable business. It offers alignment of purpose and profit, where success is measured not only in revenue but in the health of the land, the satisfaction of guests, and the sustainability of operations. This is a proven, income producing eco boutique farm business set in one of Hawaii Island’s most desirable and authentic regions. With established operations, diversified revenue, strong branding, and significant intrinsic land value, Honaunau Farms offers both immediate returns and longterm upside.
About the Business
- Facilities & Assets
- Honaunau Farm is a thoughtfully developed, multi-facility agricultural and residential compound designed to support both daily living and income-producing operations. The property features multiple distinct structures, each positioned to balance privacy, functionality, and flexibility. This layout allows the farm to operate simultaneously as a residence, rental portfolio, agritourism destination, and regenerative agricultural site without operational overlap or congestion.
- Market Outlook / Competition
- The market for regenerative farm and agritourism properties in Hawai?i is limited and highly specialized. Competition is largely fragmented between small farms, boutique retreats, and single-use rental properties, many lacking diversified income or infrastructure. Properties that combine productive land, multiple dwellings, agritourism, and flexible rental options are rare and increasingly attractive as regulations shift and buyers seek resilient, adaptable assets.
