Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
The Vanillerie, a unique tourist attraction established in 2016, is situated on a 5.9-acre leasehold farm within the Keahole Agricultural Park, conveniently located 5 minutes from the Ellison Onizuka Kona International Airport. The property was previously a nursery operation for seedling eucalyptus and sandalwood trees, and its infrastructure remains available for reactivation. The Vanillerie is a working vanilla farm with an adjacent gift shop that sells vanilla products and other locally produced agricultural items. This destination is a popular Big Island attraction, offering guided tours of the vanilla shade houses where visitors can learn about the hand-pollination process of this vining orchid. The property includes a 3-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom manager's residence, four vanilla shade houses, two metal-clad buildings for retail and storage, a nursery seeding building with a workshop, a luxury safari camp, and an office/warehouse building. Also included are nursery equipment such as a commercial seeder, Kubota tractor, and Wallenstein chipper, along with a half-acre producing fruit orchard and irrigation throughout the property. The state agricultural lease has a yearly fee of $4,370.00 and is renewed until 2067. The area previously used by the tree nursery offers potential for expanding the vanilla growing area.
