According to the property's promotional materials, the plantation has been approved for up to 80 homes, though Zuckerberg reportedly plans to build only one. It doesn't get much more private than that.

Zuckerberg is known to go to great lengths to secure his privacy. In 2013, he bought four houses adjacent to his Palo Alto home to prevent nosy neighbors from moving in. The Kahu’aina Plantation feels isolated and exclusive.

According to Forbes, Zuckerberg has bought as many as two dozen landlocked parcels on the plantation. The rights to those parcels are known as "kuleanas."

And it's absolutely gorgeous.
Zuckerberg also paid $49.8 million for an 89.2% stake of Pila'a Beach, an isolated oceanfront property adjacent to the plantation.

The 393-acre parcel had not been publicly listed.
The beach is difficult to access, with a half-mile trail that leads down to the shore. The beach is open to the public, and the piece of land that Zuckerberg purchased is situated a bit further back from the shoreline.
