Island Breakfasts to Rave About
Ahh, smell the fresh-brewed aroma of Ka'u coffee...and is that the  fragrance of lightly toasted old-fashioned Portuguese sweet bread? Look  at all the fresh tropical fruit! Have some sun-ripened papayas splashed  with tart lime juice and topped with a scoop of fresh passion fruit! The  tropical breakfast buffet on the lanai at Shipman House Bed and  Breakfast is all of this and much  more. Don't miss our exclusive  macadamia nut granola, assorted tropical fruits in season (there are  over 20 varieties of fruit trees on the property), the  beautiful  Shipman Sunrise fruit smoothie, special breads or muffins.
Fresh, healthy breakfasts, served outdoors on the lanai with the other guests.
Dietary restrictions or food allergies can be cheerfully accommodated if you give us enough notice. Whether it is celiac disease, diabetes, lactose intolerance, gluten-free, nut allergies, or another situation, we try to make your breakfast as special as everyone else's.
Your host knows what it's like to travel with food restrictions, and on the Recipes page you will find Barbara's gluten-free macadamia nut crumb cake, a gift just for you.
