No Rain, No Rainbows

This time of year the morning and early evening mauka (mountain) rain showers bring rainbows - single and double! This great photo and view is from the pool deck at the Rainbow House. Come see it for yourselves. Everyday, every hour - the view is ever-changing.

Party at the Rainbow House!

The model home was the venue for the Maui Plein Air Painting Invitational Artist and Host Family party on Feb. 18th. The house is a great party house with lots of room for the more than 85 guests to spread out on the three covered lanais and expansive pool deck. The caterers, Maui Prime of Lahaina, complimented us on the butler's pantry, Viking appliances, and outdoor kitchen, as well as the idea of adding a pass through window into the kitchen! The chilly guests hung out in the Great Room and Media Room!

Coffee Farms hosts Plein Air Painters! Feb. 2010

We were lucky to have many of the 26 painters who participated in the Maui Plein Air Painting Invitational event choose sites at the Kaanapali Coffee Farms to create some of their beautiful paintings!

Everyone is watching the whales!

Up above Kaanapali Coffee Farms is conservation land and also a reservior. A perfect place to hang out and enjoy the view - if you are a Nene. Nene is the largest bird in the goose family, and is the Hawaii State bird. There were two pairs visiting the reservior on Sunday and checking out the show put on by the whales. It's a beautiful environment - here at Kaanapali Coffee Farms.

Right in our backyard!

Jack Nicklaus and Tom Watson held off defending champions Fuzzy Zoeller and Ben Crenshaw to win the Wendy's Champions Skins Game on Sunday, Jan. 17th at the Royal Kaanapali Golf Course. Under balmy skies and temperatures in the 80's, famous names in golf played almost in our back yard! Tune in to ESPN on Feb. 27th and 28th to see it on a tape-delay. Next year-you could stroll over from the Rainbow House!

We'll leave the porch light on for you!



The Rainbow House is completely furnished with an eclectic collection of furniture recalling the plantation style but with all the modern convienences. Bring your appetite and dinner togs. The table is set and the sun is setting.
