Charming Waimea home on the Big Island- Close To Town!

Your “home away from home” to a very charming 2 bedroom, 1 full bath home with lots of natural light located in beautiful Waimea. Our home has tile and bamboo flooring and a JOTUL gas fireplace in the open living room to keep you warm on those cool Waimea evenings. The master bedroom and second bedroom are generous in size with good closet space. Our home is surrounded by lush private landscape with fruit trees and flowering plants - lemon, apple, bananas, loquat, night blooming jasmine, ginger and bamboo and pasture land in the backyard where you can watch the cows graze. Enjoy the beautiful sunset and pasture views from the large covered deck located immediately off the kitchen, a quiet and relaxing spot to enjoy a hot cup of coffee in the morning or a nice glass of wine at sunset.

The kitchen and pantry offer lots of space for food storage and the home comes with a stackable washer and dryer. The one-car carport is easily accessible with a driveway. The climate in Waimea is perfect; cool mornings and evenings, occasional afternoon misty rains and beautiful sunny days! Enjoy the quiet evenings, the beautiful countryside and lush surroundings in a private and tranquil setting. You will find peace, serenity and plenty of comfort and space to call home while you are on vacation yet still just minutes from the historic and convenient town of Waimea. The town center offers many fine and unique shops, art galleries, farmer's markets and excellent casual and fine dining options. Explore everything the Big Island has to offer from the stars and planets at the Mauna Kea Observatory to the best beaches and golfing on the island.

So come and 'get away', unwind and relax in our warm and inviting home- so much so that you will want to return! We have spared no effort to make your stay as comfortable, memorable and welcoming as possible and look forward to sharing our Aloha with you.

The AC controls were locked and it was very warm in the house. It was clean, however the AC floor vents were packed with dust which caused some breathing issues. The secondary bedroom had accumulated dust and dirt behind the nightstand and bed. Good location to where we were turkey hunting and site seeing.

This is one of the best properties in which we have stayed in the islands. The property owner was attentive and pleasant to deal with. It's in a quiet, family oriented neighborhood. The beds were quite comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. The gas grill was handy and we used it a few times. We also enjoyed the lanai with a nice view of the back pasture and some wild turkeys. It's not far to Foodland or KTA supermarkets. Waimea is pretty laid back and a nice break from touristy areas. If you visit Waimea, this is the place you want stay.

A Perfect Place to Relax and Unwind

We had an incredible stay in Waimea! The house was wonderfully cozy and comfortable, making it feel like a home away from home. We particularly appreciated the thoughtful inclusion of beach equipment, which made our trips to the shore even more enjoyable. We’d definitely stay here again – it was the perfect retreat! Mahalo!
