The Red Ohana is beautifully set up, anticipating everything that you could possibly need during you stay.
The property was perfect i.e. clean, convenient, accessible. Our family was very comfortable and Laura was helpful and answered all our questions.
The two cabins were excellent for my whole family. It gave us opportunity to get together whenever we wanted to.
We’ve stayed here the last 3 years for family vacation and it’s a great location for dining and cooler temps in Waimea while still being able to drive down to the beach every day.
Great property and location. Have stayed here multiple times and will stay again when return to Waimea.
The three bedroom Red Ohana house was perfect for our group of three adult couples. The house is maintained in excellent condition and was open and available for the easiest check-in we have ever experienced! The house was spacious, for our group of six adults and the kitchen was fully equipped for making everything from breakfast coffee ( three different coffee pots to make regular drip coffee, K cup brewed coffee or French press coffee ) to a full evening meal if desired.
Stayed at the Red O’hana for 10 days, group of 7. The room arrangement worked out great for us and the location was perfect for all our activities. Laura was easy to communicate with and was quick to respond. Thank you Laura! We had a great stay.
This is a great place to stay in Waimea. Beautiful setting and immaculate home. Our host left a fabulous book of information about the big island which included local favorites and must do activities. We did a lot of driving because our activities were down in Volcano National Park and in Kona, but coming back to our restful house and eating locally each evening was perfect
At the top of my five star ratings was Laura, the property manager. She knows this island very well and readily shared her thoughts. More than a property manager, she was the best concierge for our group of Girl Scouts, moms and younger siblings.
House was as pictured- and comfortable. Had a couple blips- but these were addressed quickly. A little noise from roosters and early am car traffic. But overall had a great stay here. Easy access to everything we wanted to do- and some great restaurants right in Waimea.
Great place for a family, good location and the owner was wonderful. Highly recommended and will be back.

Red Ohana is the perfect location to see everything on the Big Island, while providing a lovely and restful retreat. The house is spectacularly clean and well appointed with lovely Hawaiian touches. There are grocery stores just a few miles away in Waimea and a Wednesday and Saturday farmers market with wonderful fruit, veggies, and fish to purchase. Laura was a perfect host - super kind and helpful. Excellent base to attend the Hawai’i Performing Arts Festival.

My husband and I got married at Anna Ranch Heritage Center in Waimea and booked both Red Ohanas for our wedding party. It was the perfect weekend and we can’t thank Laura enough for a magical place to stay!
Very comfortable beds, fluff and fold + cleaning service throughout, and a fantastic location. We will definitely return in years to come :)
So comfortable and a great location. We were attending a wedding a Kahua Ranch and it was so easy to get there. Would definitely stay there again!
We stayed in the 3 bedroom/ 2 bath Red Ohana property. The home is spacious, spotless, and includes all the amenities we needed. Laura is a great hostess. Checkin was seamless- we just walked in! Location was the prime reason I chose Red Ohana. The best white sand beaches are minutes away.
We rented the Ref Ohana 3 bedroom. It was spacious and comfortable. The beds were great. The kitchen and eating area were great for a group. The patio was beautiful. I’d definitely stay here again.
Red 'Ohana has it all: a rural setting a short drive from the Kohala beaches (we preferred Spencer state park to the better known and larger Hapuna), less than 40 mins to Waipio Valley (the shuttle, the only way to get down, is definitely worth it). The house is very comfortable, awesomely well-equipped kitchen, very quiet Owner is super nice - lives a few houses away.

This place has it all, comfortable beds, plenty of space, toiletries provided, plush linens and towels. Laura provides everything to make your stay in Waimea amazing. Would definitely book again.

My family had a fantastic time staying here, especially with our friends’ family staying at the smaller house at the same time. The larger house is perfect for gathering people from both houses for dinner, making plans to see the volcano, the observatory, the beaches, or just hang out. There’s fresh air, quiet, and a lot of little geckos for the kids to examine. Would definitely stay here again!

Perfect house with lots of space on a great lot. Better than advertised, (and the beds are GREAT)!

Laura was a wonderful host, and the Red Ohana is a truly special spot for HPA families and those visiting the island.
