About this property

Beautiful Private Cottage

Spectacular private entire home 2 bedroom cottage, brand new construction in 2017, located on the "sunny side" of Kamuela/Waimea town. 12 minutes from world renown white sand beaches and resorts of Kohala's Gold coast. Also closely located within minutes from Kamuela/Waimea town - groceries, theater, shopping etc.

Very convenient for exploring and enjoying the Big Island, as our location is centrally located.

- Mauna Kea Cottage is located in quiet private neighborhood, with estate style homes. Ocean and mountain views with incredible sunsets, leading into stargazing nights with the Milky Way shining down on you.

- Kamuela/Waimea town is known as "paniolo" (cowboy) country, so vistas and pasture for miles on end. We are located 1800' feet, or 550 meters above sea level. This elevation provides warm comfortable days, and cool crisp nights for perfect sleeping.

- Seasonal stream provides for soothing background ambiance.

- 3 Incredible farmer's markets available several days a week allowing for fresh local produce. (see pics)

- Full kitchen with all appliances, outdoor grill, and plenty of onsite free parking. Beach towels, gear, and boards available for use.

- Excellent variety of restaurants a few minutes away.

- The cottage itself is elegantly decorated with Hawaiian Koa hardwood flooring, giant HD flatscreen tv, tall vaulted ceilings with cool breezes. Large comfortable clean bedrooms, memory foam mattresses with resort quality quilts and bedding.

- Incredible fiber optic high speed wifi internet all included.

Guests can access shared laundry room, parking, basketball hoop, and 24/7 access to property manager for urgent issues.

Our priority is have your stay and experience as comfortable and "local" as possible. By staying with us you will get a true "Hawaiian Island" Aloha.

We had a great stay. The host was very kind and helpful. Great views. Close to town and the beaches. But far enough away to feel like you’re out in the country. Loved it. Thank you

Wonderful stay!

We loved this place! Perfect setup for us as a family of four and exactly as advertised. Marc was a very helpful friendly owner who went above and beyond a couple times during our stay. Loved the location in particular, super chill and quiet, beautiful property with amazing views. We liked that it was a bit away from the resorts and busier area, but still close that we didn’t feel isolated. Would definitely stay here again

Nice Place at a Good Value

This is a nice little place away from the hubbub of downtown. Great spot for sunrises and sunsets, and the place was spacious and clean. The host was friendly and even sent us back a camera we left. Would recommend.

We had a wonderful stay! This cottage is cozy and comfy, providing everything we needed for a great visit. It’s in a quiet neighborhood close to Waimea but also close to the beach. We enjoyed watching the birds and the amazing views of Mauna Kea. It’s clean and well kept. We did find some ants in the kitchen but the owners responded right away to take care of the problem. We did have a bit of trouble figuring out where to go when we arrived. It wasn’t obvious from the info provided that we needed to enter the unit through the laundry room. Overall it was a great stay!

The home sense is very kind and gracious. It’s an off the beaten path local which is what we were looking for. Our first night we arrived late and Mark gave us food!!! It felt like our home the entire time and the property itself is exactly as described. As a spiritual person I felt very close to Love and God. I honestly believe it was the best vacation I’ve ever had in my lifetime as a 56 year old dude! Mahalo Nuie Loa Botha Mark
