About this house rental
Aloha! The Red 'Ohana 3 bedroom is located on the beautifully scenic Kohala Mountain Ranch Road on the 'sunny side' of Waimea/Kamuela, above Mauna Kea and Hapuna Beach. Waimea is a quaint town with breezes and milder temperatures that provide an idyllic Hawaiian environment.
The ultimate in comfort and classic Hawaiian style, this impeccably restored large three Bedroom, two bath island home has beautiful views of the Kohala Forest Reserve and Mauna Kea. The home comes equipped with designer furnishings & linens and all the best amenities.
Ideally located just minutes from Waimea town center offering many unique shops, galleries, farmer's markets and excellent dining options. The home is very private, quiet and situated on an acre of lush landscaped land with flowers and fruit trees that are intrinsic to well being. Red 'Ohana is classic Hawaiian style architecture with wide hip roofs and a large open covered lanai, the perfect spot to enjoy your cup of coffee in the morning or a glass of wine at sunset.

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.
5.0 / 5.0
House was as pictured- and comfortable. Had a couple blips- but these were addressed quickly. A little noise from roosters and early am car traffic. But overall had a great stay here. Easy access to everything we wanted to do- and some great restaurants right in Waimea.

Great place for a family, good location and the owner was wonderful. Highly recommended and will be back.

Red Ohana is the perfect location to see everything on the Big Island, while providing a lovely and restful retreat. The house is spectacularly clean and well appointed with lovely Hawaiian touches. There are grocery stores just a few miles away in Waimea and a Wednesday and Saturday farmers market with wonderful fruit, veggies, and fish to purchase. Laura was a perfect host - super kind and helpful. Excellent base to attend the Hawai’i Performing Arts Festival.

My husband and I got married at Anna Ranch Heritage Center in Waimea and booked both Red Ohanas for our wedding party. It was the perfect weekend and we can’t thank Laura enough for a magical place to stay!
Very comfortable beds, fluff and fold + cleaning service throughout, and a fantastic location. We will definitely return in years to come :)

So comfortable and a great location. We were attending a wedding a Kahua Ranch and it was so easy to get there. Would definitely stay there again!

We stayed in the 3 bedroom/ 2 bath Red Ohana property. The home is spacious, spotless, and includes all the amenities we needed. Laura is a great hostess. Checkin was seamless- we just walked in! Location was the prime reason I chose Red Ohana. The best white sand beaches are minutes away.

We rented the Ref Ohana 3 bedroom. It was spacious and comfortable. The beds were great. The kitchen and eating area were great for a group. The patio was beautiful. I’d definitely stay here again.

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!
5.0 / 5.0
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.

The 3br Red Ohana was a great place to stay in a good, central location. The house was as advertised; clean, comfortable, and well stocked.
We would definitely book another stay at the red ohana.

The Red Ohana house was everything you could want and more. Laura checked in with us several times and was very helpful. We would stay here again every time we visit the island.

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.
5.0 / 5.0
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.

Wonderful Visit
We enjoyed our vacation on the Big Island and our stay at the Red Ohana! My family of 4 found the house to be clean, comfy, beautiful, and well appointed. We loved staying in the cooler temps of Waimea and the ocean beaches were only about 15 minutes away. This home is very close to wonderful amenities - grocery store, drug store, restaurants, coffee, and shopping This property felt like an oasis after a busy day, away from the hustle and bustle of tourists.

Beautiful stay with all starry night
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

Immaculate property, lovely area
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.

A fantastic stay
Extremely well appointed place with a great rec room for the kids. Great location on the island let us see so much without retracing our steps over and over.
Laura had great recommendations and was so flexible with our group. We really enjoyed our time and wouldn't hesitate to return in the future.
5 stars all around.

The perfect place for us
Loved the Red Ohana. The layout was perfect to travel with extended family. The location is perfect for us--close to Waimea (shops and restaurants) and close enough for easy drives to our favorite beaches. We will be back!! Mahalo to Laura for the lovely accommodations and making everything so easy for us.

Great location in Waimea
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!

Red Ohana is absolutely wonderful!
Laura really went above and beyond to make our stay remarkable and exceptional. She did help a lot during first two weeks of quarantine, but even after it was over she was always there for us. Big mahalo!
The house is absolutely wonderful, probably the most luxurious property in this part of Waimea. Super clean, spacious and well-equipped.

Quiet, private, comfortable, and well appointed
We were fortunate that this property was available when we needed it at the last minute. We had booked another place months ago and, on arrival, found it to have been misrepresented and unsuitable for our needs. Laura’s delightful property, on the other hand, was just what we needed - quiet, private, comfortable, and well appointed. Laura’s experience in the hospitality industry was evident in the attention she paid to our needs – unobtrusively checking in with us to ensure we were OK from the moment we were booked in until the time we departed. Highly recommended – we’ll be back!
(n.b., don’t wait to book – we were extremely lucky that there was a last-minute cancellation due to a medical emergency. This place fills up!)
