Hamakua Coast Home- Ocean views, private, clean and friendly

Our secluded ohana (guest home) features a grand, unobstructed view of the Pacific Ocean. The gentle breezes and typically sunny days of our small local neighborhood make this charming hideaway perfect for guests seeking tranquility, privacy, and convenience in a comfortable climate. Whales can be seen (and sometimes heard) from your lanai during their visit to our waters. Unaffected by any surrounding light, the night time is equally enchanting as the stars fill the full canopy of sky. However, all conveniences are so close you'll lack for nothing. Located only 1 mile from quaint, authentic Honokaa, all the amenities and services you may need are simply 5 minutes away. Famous attractions such as Waipio Valley, with its black sand beach, are a short drive as are waterfalls, beaches, and all recreational opportunities. If relaxing at home is your preference, you can enjoy the swimming pool that we share with our guests.

Beautiful and peaceful

We had a great stay at Rachel’s place. We were visiting friends in the neighborhood so the location was perfect for us. The house is roomy and everything we needed. The bed was comfy. Beautiful lanai views for morning coffee, meals and sunset. We did not use the pool but it looked nice. I would definitely book this wonderful place again.

Incredible ocean view from lanai!

Rachel is a very helpful host who respects your privacy. The lanai was spectacular - recommend buying an air mattress in Waimea and sleeping out on the lanai. Honokaa is a sweet town with some old Hawaiian buildings worth exploring.

Oasis

This is a fabulous location. Private and quiet but close to Honoka'a and Waipo valley. The pool is great for laps and the view from the lanai is stunning. Rachel was welcoming, hospitable, and had helpful tips about the island. Overall a fantastic stay! I look forward to a return visit.

Great escape

We were needing to get away. This place was better than I hoped for. Literally at the end of a no traffic road. Quite comfortable. I loved the nights stargazing, listening to waves, frogs and sometimes whales. The private deck is such a bonus.

Beautiful Retreat

Rachel’s guest home was in the perfect location for us. It is out in the country, with nothing obscuring your view of the ocean. You cannot reach the ocean from this location because you are high above it. But the views are outstanding, sun rise, moon rise and set, and stars. Home is very clean, well furnished and comfortable bed. Rachel was a great host; she provided good suggestions for nearby hiking and sightseeing and fresh fruit from her trees, but never intruded. Would definitely stay again.

Excellent host

First off, loved the property. The view is amazing and the layout is nice. The breeze that runs through the windows keeps it cool. Rachel is an above and beyond host. She keeps the little things on hand that you would usually not think of when you’re on vacation. Stuff like coffee filters, dish soap, etc. She made us feel the true spirit of aloha and like we were part of her ohana. I would stay with her again anytime.

Beautiful Peaceful home away

My mother and two brothers live on a plot in a remote part of Hamakua coast, near Honokaa. I visit at least once a year. Rachel, the host/owner, keeps a Ohana unit in wonderful shape, she's responsive and a pleasure to work with. She lives on-site. The day we arrived, so did the remnants of a small hurricane. The island and the property were being drenched. Rachel made it as easy as possible for us to get into the unit dry and safe. The unit itself has an unobstructed view of open Pacific. It is peaceful. At night you see the ships and the fishing boats working their way toward Hilo Town. It's a great place.
