It’s great to see Pahonu footage that we don’t normally see in MPI. By the time MPI came on the seen, Eve no longer allowed any filming inside.
I’ve also included the cross over from Murder She Wrote. I’m sure a few of our members haven’t seen some of this collection before – ENJOY!

Oh my gosh, thank you so much Kenji! I've always wanted this in a single, easy to access location, woo-hoo! Thanks so much for taking the time to put it together!

Wow, that house is gorgeous.......I wonder what that sold for or if it has...As a fan of Robins Nest I think I would have to think hard about purchasing this one (dreaming I have 1% er funds) over our run down Mecca........

Many thanks Sam!
You saved me a search for this little youtube gem.
I just love the view out to Rabbit Island from the living room!

I remember when it went on the market Steve and I think the owners were asking $4.5 million at one point and it finally sold in 2014 for between $3.8 - $3.9 million......somewhere around there, it's been a few years.

You're very welcome RG, glad you like it!

I was just streaming HFO's "A Stranger in His Grave" from season 10 last week. It was amusing to watch Hillerman get a massage on the estate lawn. It was one of those things where I was thinking about all the success that was still ahead of him as a middle aged man...in that very spot. I wondered if he ever stood out there years later and looked back with nostalgia.

Hey RG...I think you missed your calling....you should be working in Hollywood! You know...starring opposite TS or something...

Seriously, you've got skills lady.


I might have to print THAT picture and frame & hang it!

That house is stunning! The only drawback to the Waimanolo side is the lack of the sunsets .... things being what they are though I think I'd still prefer Pahonu, if only for the grounds alone.

I would have to add a pool though . . .

Kenji nailed it..It sold in April 2014 for 3.85 and the asking price was 4.50.

Hi Sam & Steve,
While we are on the topic of this particular episode.....here is the house that is just a few doors down with the pier.
It's not as nice as the party house or even close to Pahonu, but the location is similar.
They are calling the pier...... Pa honu Pier at least that’s what they have on one of the pics.....also the pier has had some work done on it. I wonder how many hoops they had to jump through with the Dept. of Oceans and Fisheries etc. to get that done!

Type in Airbnb Pa Honu and it should come up.

Hi Fr. Paddy,

I'm sure at the very least he smiled when he heard where the estate was located for the filming of MPI.
It was a sign of things to come and boy did it ever!

Is this the house?

YES! Hawaii 5-0 filmed at our property for Season 6: Episode 1 & the infamous Magnum PI house are less than a 1/2 mile away!

That's the one Sam.
You can see the pier from upstairs in the Philip Christie episode (season 11 episode 4).
I'll have to check out the HFO season 6 episode 1 footage that the owner referenced.....

I vote that this library be placed on the Robin's Nest page where the HF0 episodes are mentioned!
