Love Waimea!

Great location just minutes from Waimea and 10 minute drive to coast and beaches. Beautiful green hills of Kohala mountain and great Waimea restaurants, farmers markets. Laura is great host, very responsive and easy to work with. Great comfy bed and pillows, with Hawaiian touches throughout the interior.

The perfect place.

The Red Ohana represents true aloha. Laura was so kind and attentive. The home was clean and a comfortable space to return to after exploring Waimea, Honokaa, Hawi, and Spencer Beach (just 15 minutes away!). We will definitely be back. Mahalo!

Winter in Waimea

Loved the place. Thoughtfully well equipped. 10 minute drive to a beach. Loved watching the polo players at the Academy across the street. It was our home for 6 weeks and very comfortable

Wedding Get Away

This was a beautiful property perfect for 4 kupuna (elders) to come together and prepare wedding decorations for our niece. We had everything we needed within reach. The owner was sweet enough to allow us to cut some of her foliage for our arrangements which exceeded expectations. Your property played a major role in our memorable and successful wedding decorating weekend. Mahalo nui.

Spectacular and cozy, great for a small family

What a wonderful property! We enjoyed staying at Red Ohana very much. Our family of 4 fit comfortably in the two bedroom guest house. The parents stayed in the larger bedroom with the king bed (very comfy) and the kiddos (5 and 18m) slept in the smaller room. The smaller room is easy to make dark and cozy for the kiddos. Laura gave us a pack n play for our little one to sleep in. It was perfect.We spent warm evenings on the back porch lounging on the comfy chairs and playing games on the big table. Mornings were spent looking for geckos and checking to see if any avocados fell from the tree! There is a quiet road behind the house for short walks and horses occasionally across the street at the prep school. The backyard is even a great place for a little star gazing if you don’t want to take an after sunset adventure with Littles but still want to experience the beautiful skies.The house was very clean, the towels, linens and dishes were all great quality. We appreciated the variety of coffee making devices and were charmed by the attention to detail the owner had shown to decor (the Tupperware lids even match the red theme!)The location can’t be beat, a great park is just minutes away and you are within a 15-20 min drive to amazing beaches. We loved Spencer Beach and the beach at the Mauna Kea resort (though it’s a bit of a walk).

Well cared for and charming cottage with vintage Hawaii vibe.

Cottage was equipped with everything you would need and more. It was immaculately clean and thoughtfully decorated. The property is quiet and peaceful. I very much enjoyed the large covered deck. The three bedroom Ohana is on the same property, but the layout and landscaping makes it private and quiet. Yes, as one reviewer mentioned, you’ll find that Waimea is cooler at night…. In Hawaii, If you are staying at higher altitude, then you’ll have cooler nights for sleeping. The cottage is equipped with nice down comforters so you’ll have a cozy nights sleep. Personally I love Waimea. It’s a beautiful area that is so completely different than the coast. It’s a great place to stay if you want some variety from the beach, yet It’s only about 15 minutes drive to Hapuna Beach. Wherever you stay on the big island, you’ll be driving. Waimea is a nice jumping off spot to drive to Hawi or along the coast down to the Hilo side. Laura is the epitome of hospitality and customer service! She’s a terrific host and an excellent and prompt communicator. I would definitely stay here again.

Peaceful home in a great location

We enjoyed a week long stay in this home. The location is perfect, close to beach and other scenic areas on the island. The house includes a private deck with a grill and comfortable seating. We enjoyed watching the geckos. Inside, the house has nice furnishings and a well stocked kitchen for cooking. The grounds include fruit trees. The boogie boards, beach towels, and beach chairs came in handy. The host was responsive to questions.

Beyond Expectations

At the top of my five star ratings was Laura, the property manager. She knows this island very well and readily shared her thoughts. More than a property manager, she was the best concierge for our group of Girl Scouts, moms and younger siblings.

Beautiful property but you will freeze if you go in winter!

Laura was great- super nice and great communication. The grounds are beautiful and well kept but my family was SO cold that part of my family went down by the beach to book an additional hotel there just to keep warm. By the way- looking at pictures in the listing- the beach is 45 minutes away It’s not a beach view.. You are literally up in the mountains. During our stay it was literally 55 degrees in the home and there is no heaters other than a space heater for one room. The rooms smell of mildew due to the dampness. All that said, again, Laura was very sweet but if we would’ve know that going to Hawaii we should be packing sweats and coats AND for the price.. we were sadly disappointed. Maybe getting heat in the home would be a great start to having the stay be as nice as looking at it in a pictures. Darn.

Wow!

We've stayed in a lot of vrbo's and the Red Ohana is one of the best! Laura made everything so easy for us from check in through our unplanned extended stay. Our flight was canceled twice due to the grounding of some Alaska Airline planes. The Red Ohana is beautiful! The pictures don't do this place justice! The peaceful setting of Waimea is perfect if you need a quiet break. I would highly recommend this place and will be back for another stay. Thank you!

This lady gets me!!

What a wonderful place to stay! So beautifully decorated and comfortable. We slept soundly, and enjoyed the kitchen, the shower, the TV. The covered lanai was absolutely magical in a light rain storm one day, and we enjoyed our morning coffee there on the comfy lounge chairs every day. The first thing I noticed in the kitchen was all the different options for coffee brewing - french press, keurig pod brewer, grinder, and drip machines - this is when I said 'this lady gets me'! So thoughtful. The garden was lush and beautiful, and the location was close to great restaurants, grocery store, and conveniences. Absolutely wonderful and highly recommend!! Thank you Laura!!

Beautiful Little Red House

This lovely little house is very nicely furnished and well-equipped for a nice vacation stay. We're very comfortable there because it's so clean, up to date and everything works. We like the location in Waimea, away from all the tourists and close to some outstanding restaurants in a nice little town. We don't go on vacation to sit around and watch TV, but after a day of scuba diving, that's how we sometimes relax. When we told our excellent host Laura that the TV didn't work well, she showed up soon with a big new smart TV that allowed us to access all the streaming services we have at home. That's some really top notch service. This was our second stay at Red Ohana and we'll definitely be back next time we go to the Big Island.

Breezy bliss

We spent 4 lovely nights in the 2 bedroom cottage. Cute and well-appointed. Comfy beds and very functional kitchen. We ate in all but one night. Savored a local breakfast as well as dinner at Merriman’s, yoga and the farmers market. Highly recommend for 2 or 3 travelers.

Lovely Cottage in Waimea Town

We had a quiet, relaxing stay at the 2 BR Red Ohana. I particularly appreciated Laura reaching out to us and offering both an early check-in and late check-out since there were no guests departing or arriving immediately before/after our stay. That's hospitality at its finest.

Amazing location, lovely house

Beautiful, clean property and a quiet location. We loved that everything we could have needed was at the house! A short drive to the coast, about 15-20 minutes away. It was convenient to be close to shops as well! The host is wonderful at answering any questions and giving local recommendations. We will definitely be back!
