We love staying at Kimi’s guest cottage. This was our second year so it was a very comfortable experience. We like the location, the quiet, the birds in the morning, access to the aquatic center, proximity to Waimea and the amazing beaches.

We enjoyed our stay at Ms.Kimi'slittle Ohana.Good location....a bit of a drive to beaches but convenient to shopping needs. Quiet neighborhood with lots of privacy. Because of the hilltop location there's usually a breeze and it is generally cooler than down at the beach.The owner is a lovely lady and everything went smoothly.You won't regret staying with Ms. Kimi.

After searching through many listings, we decided to book Kimi’s ohana. Previous reviews are spot on! It is comfortable and a good value. The landscaping and partial ocean view from back deck enhanced our stay even more.Efficient a/c unit maintains your comfort. Kitchen is well supplied with quality dish and cookware. Also a gas grill to bbq that wonderful island beef!We enjoyed visiting with Kimi, and meeting her rescue cat Harley! Kimi is always available, but respects her guests privacy as well. This property is quite the little gem.Laurie D

We loved our stay at Kimi's guest house. The house is very comfortable for two people. The kitchen is well equipped and we cooked in almost every night. The location is convenient to north-end beaches, Waimea, Hawi, MaunaKea, the supermarket in Waikoloa Village, and of course the excellent Waikoloa Community pool. We swam every day, at least once and usually twice.

What a lovely perfect place to spend our time on the big island!! Tucked away in a lovely neighborhood that was central to Waikoloa, Waimea, Volcanoes, and even Hilo and Kona, we could not have asked for more. The property itself is beautiful, with fantastic sunset views, and early morning sunshine and birdsong. The ohana itself has everything you could possibly need for outdoor adventures, the beach, cooking, relaxing, enjoying downtime, or a perfect nights sleep ( the bed is fantastic). The only downside was having to leave-it is truly a peaceful oasis for living out a remarkable vacation. Kimi is a wonderful host and human being, and we are happy to have found her amazing ohana and been able to spend a few weeks of our lives sharing her separate space!! Many thanks Kimi!!! Hui Hou!!

You will love the Ohana! Kimi is great to work with and made my stay fun. The Ohana is very close to supermarkets, restaurants, local beaches, Mauna Kea, great farmer's markets and more! I loved the quiet solitude! Kimi also provides things you will need like beach chairs, a beach umbrella, a cooler and beach towels. I hope you enjoy your stay as much as I did. BJM
