3) We’re 15 min from Hawi town and within easy driving distance to Waimea, Kona & 10 beaches.

The space
The Banyan + Bamboo Combo is The Last Resort’s largest home. This listing combines our full Banyan House and master Bamboo Suite, unlocking the adjoining door between the two units to give families more space and privacy. You’ll love staying at the combo because:

CHEF-GRADE KITCHEN. The Banyan House kitchen is outfitted with new, high-end appliances, including TWO dishwashers, TWO sinks and a wine fridge. In addition, the cabinets are stocked with everything you need from Williams Sonoma to prepare meals.

OUTDOOR BATHS. The Bamboo Suite’s master bathroom includes a Toto bidet toilet and two shower heads. If that’s not enough, you’ll step outside the bathroom and onto our brand new outdoor bath featuring double rain shower heads and a custom basalt tub. The Banyan House also features a 1st floor outdoor shower.

LUXURY. We renovated the property with everything from stone countertops and Grohe bath fixtures to Restoration Hardware furniture and linens from West Elm and Crate & Barrel.

AMENITIES. From hammocks and board games to beach gear and BBQ grills to organic bath products and eco cleaning supplies - The Last Resort has every amenity your group needs to settle in and comfortably stay awhile.

OUTDOOR SPACES. With temperatures in the 70’s/80’s and a constant breeze, you’ll want to hang out on the THREE lanais all day. There’s also two large outdoor dining areas for sharing meals. In addition, the home features our largest lawn complete with a prolific 300-year old Banyan Tree and tree swings. You’ll also have access to our orchard.

NATURE. The Banyan House offers views of Maui, the ocean, a serene cow pasture and tons of foliage. You’ll hear sounds of ocean waves, frogs, birds and breezes as you drift to sleep with the windows open.

Guest access
Guests have full access to the Banyan House and Bamboo Suite. They'll share an outdoor-accessible laundry room with the property managers.

Other things to note
We have one other vacation home (The Mango House) on our property. Unless you're renting all three of our listings, it is possible that there may be guests in the other home during your stay.
