We were delighted when we pulled up to the Inn at Waimea. It is steps from the beach and near the town of Hanapepe where there is a great Friday night gallery walk. The Taro Room is perfect and has everything you need. It is quite large and clean. The house has a nice front porch to sit on. It is probably also worth noting that someone with limited mobility would find it comfortable to stay here, as the taro room is on the ground floor, and there is wheelchair access from the parking lot up to the entrance.
We stayed up at a resort in Princeville for a few days before this stay and for double the price we had a much less comfortable room - so unless you really want a pool, this is a great option.
Check-in was easy. I never met Patrick but had a nice exchange with him on the phone.
This is an actual inn rather than someone's house or rental unit and it runs professionally, like an inn, but also has some warm personal touches.
I will definitely recommend this listing to my friends.
