This is a great place to stay on the southwest part of the island. We loved Waimea’s sleepier, less touristy vibe. Great casual lunch spots nearby, Salt Pond beach (10 min away) was great for swimming, and it was the perfect place to stay for hiking access to Kokee and Waimea Canyon (around 35-40 min for most hikes.) The cottage itself is small, but there’s a lovely backyard area with the nicest outdoor shower I’ve ever seen, plus a big hammock perfect for star gazing. The hosts were very communicative and the house was really well equipped!
