About this property

Located on the dry-side of Kamuela (aka Waimea) our newly appointed Mauna Loa Suites offer you stunning views of both our islands tallest mountains Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa as well as the vast Pacific Ocean. We are in a quiet and private residential location with a large populous of cheerful birds to serenade you daily.

Our suites include 2 large bedrooms on the top floor as well as a spacious living room with large flat screen TV which includes the option of a pull-out queen murphy bed perfect for added guests or parents traveling with kids. Our kitchenette features a resort size refridgerator along with 2 stove top gas burners as well as a comfy seating nook. There are two full-size bathrooms one with large soaking tub double sinks and the other with resort style multi-headed shower.

By far the most attractive feature of our suites would we the wrap around roof-top lanai area where you are may want to enjoy a nice breakfast while planning your day's events and later that evening come back to a glass of wine while you watch the sunset give way to the Milky Way!

We are also centrally located and a conveniant 15-30 minutes away from a variety of beaches, charming towns, resorts, farmers markets, upscale shopping and restaurants/eateries.

Smooth check in/out with great communication with the host. Very quiet location with excellent views to toward the south. Beautiful sunrises. We were not around for the sunsets.I don't know if I would call the suites "beautifully elegant and spacious", but they were totally adequate. We cooked two meals at home on the butane burners. Neat experience.

This is a restful, lovely property conveniently situated 15 minutes from several beaches, and the town, which is about the same distance in the other direction. There are farmer's markets on Wednesday and Saturday, so we did the bulk of our shopping there. However, there are a couple of large markets and a health food story in town as well. Some great family owned restaurants too. Try the local fair, inexpensive and delicious. Mark and Carmella were great hosts. We would definitely come again.

Beautiful setting and beautiful home. The home is delightfully appointed and the hosts were very attentive. The location is perfect for exploring the North of the island on both the East and West sides. Everyone loved sitting on the deck enjoying the surroundings, including the fields, the volcanoes, the ocean, the sunrise and sunset, as well as the incredible stars at night.

The two bedrooms are very nice. The view from the large balcony at sunset is stunning. Wonderful place to relax and watch the changing sky over the landscape. Everything is exactly as shown in the listing. Lovely area. Owner is responsive and helpful.

We stayed here for 2 nights, the property was well maintained, hosts were responsive. We had a wonderful stay and would consider renting it again. Thank you.

We arrived at the property at normal check in time. Property was uncleaned. Beds were unmade, bathrooms dirty, sinks were dirty, towels and trash were left everywhere. Contacted Marc and after three calls and a voicemail, a Micah did call back and offered an adjoining property to shower in. She said cleaners were en route and cleaning would take a few hours. Micah never contacted us to let us know when cleaning was done. We arrived 4 hours later. Property was cleaned but there was a flying cockroach and ants in the bathroom. Upstairs tub was under repair and we were not notified of this. We had a large party staying there and having to share one bathroom was quite challenging. The tv in one bedroom had no signal. I contacted Marc after our stay to discuss the issues we encountered. I was offered a refund of half of the first nights stay. I disagreed and contacted Marc but haven't heard back, instead was notified the host left a review for me. The property is beautiful and the location was perfect for us. However, the feeling we felt upon entering and seeing the unit dirty, then after it being cleaned and seeing the roach and ants, left us feeling dirty the duration of the stay. There are also three dogs on property that will come and say hi whenever they see you which is a bonus. It's unfortunate that this happened as working with Marc prior to checking in, was easy and accommodating but he said he was away and had a manager handle the cleaning.

Our hosts were friendly and amazing, along with their 3 doggie assistants! The property is very scenic with views of volcanoes and ocean. The home was very cozy and comfortable with everything we needed. We felt right at home and the property was conveniently located to many places for day trips; Mauna Kea and beaches. They had beach gear available for use as well! We also enjoyed meeting the family (3 doggies) who were fun ambassadors! We highly recommend this property and our wonderful hosts! Mahalo!

Marc was a wonderful host, and very communicative throughout our stay. Their place is immaculately clean, well located, and has GORGEOUS views of the surrounding ranch country, about 10 minutes from Waimea. You could see the Mauna Kea observatories in the distance from the back porch. The only thing missing is a dishwasher--which we told Marc and he said he'd look into it. We highly recommend it and will definitely come here if we go back to the Big Island.

Really loved our stay here. The view from the balcony is breathtaking. Home had everything we would need. Extremely relaxing and quiet after a day at the beach. Marc was excellent at communicating with any questions/issues. We stayed here with our three children ages 7-12 and loved spending time at fantastic beaches that were a quick 15-20 min drive away or exploring other parts of the island. Would definitely stay here again.
