Description:

Located on Hawaii's Big Island's west side, The Vanillerie began as a plumeria farm before its purchase in 1999 by its current owner. Situated just five minutes from Kona airport, this six-acre farm evolved into a tree seedling nursery and now stands as one of Kona's premier agri-tourism destinations. Offering a range of products in its gift shop, including food, body, and clothing items, the farm provides visitors with an immersive experience into the world of vanilla cultivation. Guests can witness the intriguing process of hand-pollinating the orchid, which blooms only once a year. Tours accommodate up to 50 visitors per day, featuring knowledgeable guides who lead guests through greenhouses and orchards, answering questions along the way. Though not strenuous, the tour advises staying hydrated due to the tropical climate. Concluding with a treat of locally made ice cream, The Vanillerie offers an enriching and delicious experience for all.
