About this house rental
Give everyone a little breathing room at Star of Waikoloa Ainamalu House and Ohana, a newer-built three-bedroom home that sleeps ten in Waikoloa. Lava-rock walls set the scene outside, while a separate ohana, meaning a private guest apartment, creates extra flexibility for grandparents, friends, or another branch of the family. High ceilings, wood flooring, ample light, modern appliances, and a primary suite opening to the lanai give the main home an open, easy feel. Rinse off in the outdoor shower, make dinner in the full kitchen, and use air conditioning, WiFi, cable TV, board games, and in-home laundry to keep the group comfortable. Beaches, golf, and resort dining are within easy reach. This is an especially thoughtful option for a multigenerational family or friends traveling together on the Kohala Coast.
The Space:
Pass the lava-rock walls to a bright newer-built home with high ceilings, wood floors, and modern appliances. The three-bedroom, three-bath setup sleeps ten and includes a separate ohana guest apartment for added privacy within the group. The primary suite opens to the lanai, while the home also offers air conditioning, a full kitchen, WiFi, cable TV, in-home laundry, and an outdoor shower.
Guest Access:
Guests staying at Star of Waikoloa Ainamalu House and Ohana have private access to the home's own patio or balcony and outdoor seating, with a lit path to the entrance at night. The BBQ grill and full kitchen are yours to use throughout the stay, with no shared community amenities to coordinate.
The Neighborhood:
Waikoloa is made for sunny Big Island days, with Anaehoʻomalu Bay, coastal golf, and resort dining all within easy reach. Spend a morning at A-Bay, where historic fishponds sit behind the sand, then head to Queens' MarketPlace or Kings' Shops for a meal and supplies. The wider Kohala Coast opens up for beach hopping, snorkeling, and sunset drives, while Waikoloa itself feels relaxed and practical. It is a strong base for travelers who want the Big Island's dry, beach-forward side.
Getting Around:
Kona International Airport is roughly 20 to 30 minutes away, an easy drive up the Kohala Coast. A rental car is recommended to reach beaches, restaurants, and the resort area's shops with ease. Waikoloa Beach Resort keeps some shopping and dining walkable, while nearby beaches and Waikoloa Village are a short drive. Parking is generally available in resort lots or on site at most properties.
Other Things to Note:
Ohana has a private entrance. There is 1 camera on the garage facing the front driveway perimeter.
