This property exceeded our expectations. For a one bedroom, it is incredibly spacious. In addition to the lovely master bedroom there is a spacious living area, large eat-in kitchen and adjoining sitting area. The furnishings are beautiful, stylish, high quality and thoughtful. The property has a zen-like or temple-like feel with Eastern-inspired decor. The bed was extra comfortable with high quality linens. The day bed in the living area is a nice touch and very relaxing. The grounds are beautiful and well-maintained. There is also a very nice outdoor sitting area off the kitchen with a barbeque grill. The location is just a bit off the beaten path yet close to many attractions and adventures: Within a 15-minute drive there is Hapuna Beach, Mauna Kea Beach (which you can walk to from Hapuna Beach) and our personal favorite, Mau'umae Beach which is reachable by a short walk south from Spencer Beach Park. Also within 15 minutes there is good shopping and dining at Mauna Lani Shops and Kings' Shops in Waikoloa. Waimea town is a short trip up the road, and the town of Hawi and Pololu Valley Lookout is a within a day trip, as is Waipio Valley Lookout and Honokaa town. While the property feels like a very private ranch we found it to be a great central location for exploring the Kohala area beaches, towns and the northern Hamakua Coast. Also, the outdoor shower was amazing! Very serene and relaxing and surrounded by a lovely garden encased within a rock wall. While the property is attached to the main house, it is very private and uiet. If you are seeking a distinctive and serene one-bedroom in the Waimea area that is also not too far from great beaches I don't think you can do much better.
