We enjoyed our short stay at Mauna Kea Cottage. The home was cozy, comfortable and quiet. The kitchen was equipped with excellent large and small appliances, cookware and bakeware. The beds were comfortable and the bathroom was well stocked with towels, bath gel, shampoo, conditioner, etc. We especially enjoyed the unobstructed view of Mauna Kea. The only reason for the 4-star rating is because we were unable to secure the 2 sliding doors in the dining area . Both locks were not engaging properly to secure the doors. This made us feel a bit uncomfortable at night since we were unfamiliar with the surrounding area. Other than that, it was a lovely stay on the “Dry Side” of Waimea. Thank you Marc!
