THE SPACE

When you arrive at THE HOUSE OF THE FULL MOON you will first notice the lovely botanical gardens surrounding the property with several types of palms, orchids, hibiscus, and bromeliads.

You will enter through a beautiful brass patina front door into a bright sunroom space with two stories of windows that look out onto ancient pahoehoe lava that flowed through this area 400 years ago and colorful, tropical landscaping.

Ascend onto the main level where you will enjoy a grand, open concept room with comfortable couches, flat screen TV, BOSE surround sound system, and beautiful furnishings.

Sliding glass doors welcome you to the large lanai (porch) that wraps around the entire front of the home offering a birds-eye view of the gorgeous gardens below and the Pacific Ocean out in front of you as you enjoy your morning coffee or happy hour cocktail.

The full-service kitchen is equipped with everything you will need including matching white plates, bowls and cups, glassware, pint glasses, wine and champagne glasses. silverware, pots, pans, blender, toaster, rice cooker, hand mixer, baking dishes and trays, glass storage containers, Brita water filter and more.
