About this property

Beautiful View • Close to Beach and Close to Town

This is a Hosted Property.
Recently constructed and fully remodeled 700 square foot self-contained living space in a private, separate wing of the house. The bedroom and living areas are filled with light, looking out to gorgeous views of the three mountains - Mauna Kea, Mauna Loa and Hualalai. Enjoy the fully equipped kitchen, dining area, cozy reading nook in the living room, spacious bedroom with walk-in closet, brand new bathroom with walk-in shower, wireless internet and Smart TV (movies, tv shows and music channels). We recently installed A/C for those warmer summer months.

The teak bench in front of the cottage is a perfect place to sit and watch the clouds play over Mauna Kea. Out the back door off the kitchen, there is a new gas barbecue and table and chairs for dining or enjoying sunsets or the bright starry nights. There is also a storage chest full of beach chairs, boogie boards and snorkel gear for your use.

Our 3-acre property has a large house, recently remodeled to include the guest cottage at one end of the house. I live in a separate wing on the other end of the L-shaped home. The two living spaces are separated by a covered lanai with fencing and landscaping providing privacy for each dwelling.

I respect my guestsʻ privacy and enjoy my own. I am also happy to answer questions you may have to help you enjoy your stay on the island. I will be happy to steer you to my favorite restaurants, beaches, walking trails and island adventures.

We enjoy gardening and have planted fruit trees and many flowers that attract abundant bird life. I'm happy to share fruit that is ripe during your stay, including banana, lilikoʻi, mango, papaya, avocado, lemon and lime.

Situated on the 'dry side' of Waimea, we are half way between Kawaihae and Waimea town, ten minutes drive from both. The best beaches on the island are 10-15 minutes away.

Located at 1800 foot elevation, our days are most often sunny and warm with occasional island breezes. There are ceiling fans and air conditioning for additional cooling if needed. Temperatures cool down in the evening - perfect for a good nights sleep. Cardinals, doves, finches and other birds fill our quiet 3-acre property with song.

Catrinka’s Home away from home
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Catrina’s Hideaway this week. She provides all the creature comforts and more and we love the quiet pastoral atmosphere away from the hotel craziness. We woke to birds singing and enjoyed all the beautiful flowers. Check the cupboards and fridge before grocery shopping as many staples are available. Catrinka was a wonderful hostess. A great place to stay!!

The Location is Ideal for going to the villages of the North end of the Island both east and west.
Wonderful for a couple that likes to visit the small town museums and loves the cooler ranch country of Hawaii. We would come back again and again. Catrinka was so accomodating and helpful with everything. Great at hosting. We have been coming to this Island for more than a decade and half, and will continue to do so. This is now our go to location if available.

About the host

Hosted by Catrinka Holland

Host profile image
After living in the Sierra Nevada for 30 years, we came to Hawaiʻi in 2007.

Why they chose this property

We love the quick and easy access to both town and beach. This is our favorite climate zone with warm sunny days and cooler nights. We looked for five years to find just the right place - 3 acres on a quiet street with expansive views out to three mountains, and space and sun to grow mangos, papayas, bananas, avocados and lilikoʻi. We love the community of Waimea and the great snorkeling beaches just down the road.
