Lovely home in Waimea

This is a great place to stay in Waimea. Beautiful setting and immaculate home. Our host left a fabulous book of information about the big island which included local favorites and must do activities. We did a lot of driving because our activities were down in Volcano National Park and in Kona, but coming back to our restful house and eating locally each evening was perfect

Red O’Hana - 3BR

The three bedroom Red Ohana house was perfect for our group of three adult couples. The house is maintained in excellent condition and was open and available for the easiest check-in we have ever experienced! The house was spacious, for our group of six adults and the kitchen was fully equipped for making everything from breakfast coffee ( three different coffee pots to make regular drip coffee, K cup brewed coffee or French press coffee ) to a full evening meal if desired.

The Perfect Place!

We have stayed on the Big Island many times and this was our favorite place. The house is extremely comfortable and well stocked. It is very clean and Laura is a top notch host. The location is fantastic for better restaurants in Waimea, good coffee, and ease to the North Kohala beaches.

Perfect Waimea Getaway For Our Wedding Party!

My husband and I got married at Anna Ranch Heritage Center in Waimea and booked both Red Ohanas for our wedding party. It was the perfect weekend and we can’t thank Laura enough for a magical place to stay! Very comfortable beds, fluff and fold + cleaning service throughout, and a fantastic location. We will definitely return in years to come :)

great stay

House was as pictured- and comfortable. Had a couple blips- but these were addressed quickly. A little noise from roosters and early am car traffic. But overall had a great stay here. Easy access to everything we wanted to do- and some great restaurants right in Waimea.

Wonderful place to explore the big island from

My family had a fantastic time staying here, especially with our friends’ family staying at the smaller house at the same time. The larger house is perfect for gathering people from both houses for dinner, making plans to see the volcano, the observatory, the beaches, or just hang out. There’s fresh air, quiet, and a lot of little geckos for the kids to examine. Would definitely stay here again!

Excellent spot for stay in Waimea on the Big Island

Stay was clean and especially enjoyed the soft beds for being on vacation. Good amenities. Only concern was the driveway into the place as an elevated area, angling the car if your car rides low should be done with care.

Delightful stay in Waimea

We stayed in the 3 bedroom/ 2 bath Red Ohana property. The home is spacious, spotless, and includes all the amenities we needed. Laura is a great hostess. Checkin was seamless- we just walked in! Location was the prime reason I chose Red Ohana. The best white sand beaches are minutes away.

Why they chose this property

Red 'Ohana distinguishes itself from other vacation rentals first and foremost because of the casual elegance that you just won't find elsewhere. Our property is both spacious and private, and the O"hanas were the original Parker Ranch caretakers' quarters. Once you explore the island, you will appreciate the mild, temperate climate. The property atmosphere is relaxed and peaceful. Your access to Waimea town is a 5 minute drive and access to beautiful beaches is an easy, scenic 8 minute drive. It would be difficult to find a property with all of features and amenities for the same price elsewhere on the island. Sometimes local residents stay with us for their weekend getaway. Many parents stay with us when visiting their children who attend Hawaii Preparatory Academy and Parker Ranch School.

What makes this property unique

- Five-star luxury accommodations at lower prices than resorts
- Proximity to Hawaii's best beaches, nearby attractions, and west side of the island.
- Attentive, experienced concierges for property or activity needs
- Strong connection to old Hawaii and historic Parker Ranch, and an active community not overcome with tourists.
