Newly renovated, Bananarama Cottage features an ocean view, large screened-in lanai with dining table and loveseat, King bed, indoor Jacuzzi whirlpool bath tub & shower, and a large, outdoor shower with wall of orchids. Its design is inspired by its location on a banana farm featuring over 100 different varieties of bananas. Perfect for 1-2 guests. Enjoy the entire house all to yourself. Cottage and 1/5 acre property are not shared with other units. This is a full-time vacation rental. Owners/caretakers are typically on the separate property next door to provide assistance if needed.

We are a vegan & vegetarian couple who own a vegan sweets bakery and vacation rental cottage. The vacation rental is part of Seaview Farms, which is primarily a banana farm with over 50 varieties of edible bananas. The cottage and surrounding farm use no products with animal ingredients. Even our 2 rescue dogs are vegan! We have been living in this neighborhood for 16+ years and are well acquainted with all it has to offer, including hidden, magical spots on the Big Island.
