Red 'Ohana has it all: a rural setting a short drive from the Kohala beaches (we preferred Spencer state park to the better known and larger Hapuna), less than 40 mins to Waipio Valley (the shuttle, the only way to get down, is definitely worth it). The house is very comfortable, awesomely well-equipped kitchen, very quiet Owner is super nice - lives a few houses away.

This place has it all, comfortable beds, plenty of space, toiletries provided, plush linens and towels. Laura provides everything to make your stay in Waimea amazing. Would definitely book again.

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!

The home is just as advertised. Clean, roomy, comfortable, well appointed, and ideally located. The owner is a pro who is attentive and kind. If you are looking for a central location away from the resorts, the Red Ohana house is for you. Thank you Laura for making sure our stay was so memorable!

The house is beautifully updated with clean, comfortable furnishings. Plenty of high quality linens for beds, bathrooms and kitchen.
Only suggestion would be to have bath mats as the bathrooms are tiled and is slippery when wet.
The kitchen is well appointed with full array of table ware, plates, stemware, and glass ware. A complete kitchen for cooking. Several ways to make coffee, from a keurig, to French Press and a pour over melitta style. Electric tea kettle and traditional tea kettle on the stove.
The garden and deck are clean and well maintained. The yard has nice grass and plants. The deck had table and chairs and a nice gas grill. For a day at the beach, Boogie boards and beach chairs were available as well.
The house is cleaned twice a week and is well maintained.
The location was perfect for our needs and would recommend to stay another time.

What a wonderful stay at the Red Ohana! The house was immaculate, spacious, quiet, and ideally located as we were in town for HPA graduation right across the street. Communication was top notch, and we appreciated all the amenities provided. We would love to stay at Red Ohana again if and when we make it back to Waimea. Thanks so much for making us feel like such welcome guests. Mahalo!

Red Ohana was clean, comfortable, spacious for our group (4 adults, 2 kids), and well equipped with everything we needed. Waimea/Kamuela is a great spot, with a grocery store and wide selection of restaurants in town, just a few minutes’ drive from Red Ohana, and the perfect location for us to use as our base to explore Big Island with our kids (both under 10). A lot of the sites are a bit of a drive (45-90 mins) in Hawaii, but Waimea is well placed between Hilo and Kona for access to some of the key things — as long as you are good with driving some days. The 1-week itinerary on the Red Ohana website is worth checking out! Lots of great ideas. It is cooler and breezier (sometimes damper) in Waimea than Kona, but that was a nice relief to come back to after a hot day on the beach. Loved our stay. Mahalo, Laura!

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.

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.

We were immediately impressed with how beautiful and clean the house was; very spacious for our family of 7. We found Laura our host, to be very responsive when we had questions. We liked the location as Weimea is a cute town with fun farmers markets and some really great restaurants. The town is pretty centrally located so we could do day trips around the Island to take in as much of the Big Island as possible!! Always felt like going home after a long day exploring. We’re very sad to be going home.

Beautiful Waimea Home
We had an amazing stay at Red 'Ohana! Great family trip with 6 adults and 2 kids (ages 5 and 7). The home was clean, beautifully maintained with a cozy paniolo feel. Laura was a great host and made the process easy. Home is a quick drive into Waimea town, with a nice central location to both Kona coast and Hilo side of the Island. Would highly recommend and can't wait for our next stay at Red 'Ohana.

Great location, easy to find
Secluded yet just 5 min from Waimea so grocery shopping and other items was super convenient
equidistant from Hilo and Kona so was easy to commute around Big Island
Was lucky to have Volcanoes erupting went late at night and also complete our Manta Ray night snorkeling
Must stay for family and friends to spend time at the property as well as enjoy day excursions available at the Island

My husband and I just spent 8 nights at this property and we had a great experience. Waimea is a beautiful part of the island and we appreciated that we could easily access the beaches of the Kona side but also make a drive to Volcanos National Park for a hike. The property is absolutely immaculate. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to cook but not cluttered. Our hostess, Laura, is lovely and has found an excellent balance between leaving you alone and when we needed something it took just moments to reach her. A wonderful place.

Red Ohana is located in a beautiful landscape surrounded by mountains, minutes from town, but very peaceful. We stayed three nights here and used it as our base while we explored Waipio valley, all the way to Hilo on the east side. The place itself is very spacious and good wifi for working from home. It doesn’t have AC, which we would have appreciated as it got pretty warm during the day. The kitchen has cookware but only salt and pepper, but the grocery store is only a couple minutes away. We saw some ants on the dining table, but later realized it came from a flower that was left on the table as decoration. Once we removed the flower, the problem was solved. There were also a couple lamps/lights that weren’t working, but that didn’t impact us much. Laura was super communicative throughout our stay, very prompt with responses. Overall I’d recommend to folks looking to stay on the north side!
