The Red Ohana is a cute little cottage just outside of Waimea. It is a great location from which to explore the Hilo side of Hawaii, and Waimea is a lovely little town to explore. (don’t miss the Wednesday and Saturday Kamuela Farmers Market) Laura was an excellent host, great communication and very welcoming - she kept us informed of everything we needed to know. On our last day, due to bad weather, we asked at the last minute if we could extend our stay by a day to accommodate our late flight off the island, and Laura was flexible enough to accommodate our request and allow us the extra day, which we very much appreciated. Mahalo, Laura - we hope to be back to visit again sometime.

Perfect communication, wellappointed with whatever is needed. It would be tough for my parents with a very tight shower and no climate control, but was no issue for our younger family. We had a great stay.

An exceptional place to stay for a Hawaii vacation. The Red Ohana.I had the pleasure of a week’s stay here, a place that gives tremendous thought to making a great vacation experience. When I’ve rented other vacation houses, I’ve often felt that I was trespassing in someone else’s living room. Not so at the Red Ohana. The whole vibe is welcoming. The decor is charming. The layout is comfortable. Everything is well-thought-out and well-supplied. The kitchen, the bathroom, the bedrooms, the laundry, the housekeeping, the porch chairs, the beach supplies — all needs anticipated and ready to go. The landscaping is private, soothing and beautiful.This was the ideal place for a family reunion. My family of four had the two-bedroom house; the extended family had the larger house about twelve steps away. It was easy to share meals, make group plans, and relax. When we needed a break from togetherness, we had privacy at hand in separate houses.Like I said, exceptional.

Laura was great- super nice and great communication. The grounds are beautiful and well kept but my family was SO cold that part of my family went down by the beach to book an additional hotel there just to keep warm.
By the way- looking at pictures in the listing- the beach is 45 minutes away It’s not a beach view.. You are literally up in the mountains. During our stay it was literally 55 degrees in the home and there is no heaters other than a space heater for one room. The rooms smell of mildew due to the dampness.
All that said, again, Laura was very sweet but if we would’ve know that going to Hawaii we should be packing sweats and coats AND for the price.. we were sadly disappointed. Maybe getting heat in the home would be a great start to having the stay be as nice as looking at it in a pictures.
Darn.
