Nestled on the Island of Hawaii's sun-drenched Kohala Coast, the story, or mo'olelo, of the grounds of the Orchid stretches back hundreds of years to when Native Hawaiians fished, farmed and lived in perfect harmony with nature in a region known then as Kalahuipua'a. The Kohala Coast is the birthplace of King Kamehameha I, the Hawaiian king who conquered and unified the Hawaiian Islands in the early 19th century.
