This location is prime in Waimea. The property is convenient and beautiful. Outside of a few quirks, this provided a seamless visit back home with family and friends. Having a space to eat and relax with a 15 month old was key, and this hale provided comfort and safety for us.
Sitting just outside Waimea, this property gives you access to all sides of the island. It is comfortable and cooking was a breeze. The amenities are as promised and checkin was an easy. Would stay here again!!!
I liked the relaxed neighborhood, proximity to stores, etc. Very simple and convenient.
We come to the Big island for a couple of months every year to visit our Daughter and this year we chose to stay closer to where she lives in Honaka'a. This location is perfectly situated between the Mountains and the Beach. Almost directly between Hilo and Kona, it made it easy to tour the island. Short ride down the hill to the Beach and shopping and very peaceful when working from the house(listening to the Turkeys). Plenty of space for cooking and a grill that we used several times on the deck...felt like Home away from Home! Provided beach chairs and cooler made for easy beach days. Awesome place for sure and would recommend it to EVERYONE.
We loved the location and easiness of the location. Pretty much anything you might need is 10-45 minutes away. And you cant beat having your homebase in Waimea. No mosquitoes, cocqui frogs, nor fire ants to ruin your night.Many thanks to the hosts for providing such a welcoming home!
This was the perfect location for me to visit family in Waimea. Definitely not a “tourist type” location unless you want a beautiful base camp to explore the North end.
Cooler weather, but 15-20 miles gets you 15-20 degrees in temperature.
Excellent accommodations and just as the pictures show.
Robyn's place is very spacious and located in a quiet safe neighborhood. She supplied many extras like; beach equipment, shampoo, conditioner and sunscreen. We really appreciated the delicious welcome goodies. Communication with Robyn was excellent. She was very responsive and flexible to our changing needs. Mahalo Robyn.
Overall the property is nice and worked for my long stay. There were a few issues but Kathy was very responsive and got us fix up quickly. The only negatives would be when the upstairs unit is rented... they can be rather loud "walkers" and the beds really could use new mattresses. They have added pillow toppers but they are way too soft & no support. Those are the only reason for a 4 star instead of a 5. I would absolutely rent it again..
Quiet beautiful place and a little up the road were the clouds every morning. The temperatures are not so high as it’s at medium elevations. What an awesome place. Waimea is a good starting point for exploring the island in all directions.
This place, overall, has been fine. After staying in two places on the Big Island just before coming here that we’re amazing ( charming, beautiful both inside and out), this one does not compare. But, it is clean, spacious, and acceptable. Pros are a well-stocked kitchen ( for cooking or not), well-stocked bathroom. The driveway and outside look quite tired, as do the beds and bedding ( the beds are like sleeping in marshmallows). If you like really soft beds you’ll like them. There is a nice welcome basket on the table with chips and candy. There is an apartment upstairs and as a consequence there is noise if it is occupied that comes through floors. Carpet up there might help with that. There are also ice chests on the porch that can be used, as well as new snorkeling equipment and beach/lawn chairs and umbrellas. All in all, more pros than cons.
