"We had such an amazing time at this property, everything was perfect, as advertised and more. Could not recommend it more."

"Room cleaned and clean towels twice a day. Family friendly, gentle ocean, cabanas, chairs and towels."

"We had a beautiful view of the ocean. Located in a quiet neighborhood "

"Wow! Just wow! This property is amazing! The pictures do not begin to show the beauty of the view from this house! The grounds are meticulously kept! The fruit trees and plants, we had planned on going back to the botanical gardens outside of Hilo but there was no need, everything was growing right there! Is the House a little dated yes and I was a little uncomfortable with no coverings on the windows but there truly is no one else around. The house was super clean and the AC kept it cool which is what my biggest issue in booking was! The Host Cemille and Derrick are absolutely amazing! Fresh fruit every time we saw them! So nice and helpful! We hope to be back very soon! "

"We had everything we needed, the home was beautiful and host was very helpful with recommendations. Everyone had plenty of space to relax. My son loved watching the turtles every morning. Highly recommended, best placed we've stayed on vacation. "

"Everything about our stay at the Red Ohana 3-bedroom was amazing! The home is beautifully maintained, thoughtfully equipped, and incredibly comfortable. The location is peaceful and perfect for exploring Waimea and the surrounding areas.But the real gem? Laura. She's Waimea's best kept secret - warm, responsive, and full of great local insight. She made us feel more like welcomed guests than renters.Can’t wait to come back. Mahalo, Laura, for an unforgettable experience!"

"What an amazing stay. Every single thing about this place was great. Not a single complaint."

"Our stay here couldn't have been better. The photos available online simply don't do this property justice. It is exquisite. The design of the house harkens to a bygone time with genuine authenticity and yet there is a timeless quality to the design that never makes it feel dated or no longer relevant. So many spaces for family and friends to spread out and enjoy but also so many thoughtful touches that make the home feel intimate and comfortable. If the opportunity ever arises, we would not hesitate to stay here again."

"The studio apartment was a charming place conveniently located close to many amenities (cafes, groceries, restaurants, etcetera). The staff was very friendly and eager to help. Waimea was our base to explore other areas such as Pololu valley, Hawi and others. The manager was very helpful in providing local information of good restaurants around all the multiple areas we visited. It was always good to have an insiders' point of view. Thank you!"
