Situated in Kohala Ranch, this charming house for $185 per night is a fantastic option for your next trip. Hawaii Tax ID: GE/TA - 087-115-1616-01. Hosted rental by owner. This beautiful one-bedroom suite has returned to the vacation rental operation and it welcomes 2 guests to experience the beautiful life on the Kohala coast. Manaharmony Big Island is a 3-acre property located in Kohala Estates, an agricultural subdivision on the beautiful Kohala coast of the Big Island of Hawaii, merely 4 miles north of Kawaihae harbor. The house has two wings under the same dwelling structure - the main wing and the guest suite wing. The host is the property owner and the original creator of this home who lives in the main wing with her life partner. Ohana Harmony is the guest suite wing of the property. It is a custom-designed and custom-built home which was completed in August 2016. The entire property sits on the Kohala mountain and has an expansive view of the ocean as well as the majestic Mauna Kea, Mauna Loa, and Hualalai mountains. Kauna'oa (Mauna Kea), Hapuna, Waialea Bay, Spencer, and Mau'umae beaches, as well as Puako Beach Drive are all within 5-8 miles of the property. The town of Waimea (Kamuela), Mauna Lani resort, and Waikoloa Beach Resort are 20-25 minutes away, providing ample choices of restaurants, grocery shopping, and resort lifestyle. Two scuba dive companies along with kayak and ocean tour operators operate their boats within a 10-20 minutes driving distance from the property. The area is considered to be the drier area of the island, receiving trade winds which keep the sky relatively clear from vog (volcanic fog). Star-gazing on the night skies free of light pollution, whale-watching through binoculars during the whale season, watching the moon rise over Mauna Kea, or being awe-inspired by the light of dawn coinciding with the moon set over the ocean are some of other magical experiences you can enjoy from the comfort and peace of the beautiful lanai of Ohana Harmony. While the property shares the zip code with Waimea (Kamuela/96743), it does not share the weather of Waimea. The Big Island has various micro-climate pockets. The property is located at 500 feet elevation in a dry area. Daytime outdoor temperatures in the warm months are mid to high 80's; in the cool months, high 70's to low 80's. To check the weather, Kawaihae is the nearest weather report location.
