Orchid Elua means "Second Orchid," the newer of two fantastic co-owned homes. Located in Kapoho Vacationland, Orchid Elua and its sister property White Orchid Retreat rest at opposite ends of one of this popular area's unique tide pools. Both homes have breathtaking views of the pond and gardens. Guests can swim in the pond, which is just outside the doors of either home. Steps make it easy to get in and out. The most popular snorkeling area is a walk of just a few minutes. Most rooms in the house as well as the lanai have a view of the pond and tropical vegetation.
Orchid Elua is brand new (completed in Summer 2008) with wood floors, designer bathrooms, high ceilings, beautiful furniture, and touches of color against its very light background. The custom furnishings were hand-picked and imported from the Philippines where some of the finest Pacific Rim furniture crafters are located. The two-story house is designed to give everyone traveling together lots of privacy.
There are four bedrooms and four baths! The bedrooms have one king bed, two queen beds, and two twin beds giving guests lots of options. All bedrooms have private outdoor lanais, and breezy window coverings made from imported fabric add to the decor. Of course we wouldn't think of offering a place without a nice desk area and high-speed Internet access! The owner insists on high-quality linens and furnishings in both her beautiful homes. Orchid Elua sleeps 8 comfortably.
For more adventurous snorkeling, just take the 5-minute walk (we'll show you the secret way!) to the Waiopae Marine Conservation Area, acres and acres of oceanfront ponds that contain an astonishing variety of fish, sea creatures, and of course honu, the beloved Hawaiian sea turtles. The tide pools provide a safe and inviting environment for even the novice swimmer to snorkel or just float in crystal-clear 80-degree water year 'round, without worry of surf or currents, perfect for those who are not comfortable in the open ocean. For guests at ease in the water, Kapoho and the rest of the Big Island have much more to explore.
