Beautiful Views. Close to Beach + Close to Waimea Town.

Cat's property was more than we expected. The views were amazing, the stars at night were stunning and the area was very peaceful. The house had absolutely every single thing we needed during our ten day stay. This is a 5 star hostess and property. We are looking forward to coming back.

We had a great stay and I highly recommend anyone visiting the Big island to stay her. Great views and very peaceful.

Great experience! Very comfortable suite with fabulous views-so nice to wake up to every day :)

Great location close to resorts and restaurants. Clean and well appointed. Host repeadedly checked in to be sure we had everything.

I have stayed in Waimea many times and this was the perfect property for my wife and I. The house and amenities were exactly as advertised, the host (Catrinka) was amazing - communicative, thoughtful, with great advice on local places to hear music amd snorkel. We had a perfect Christmas vacation thanks to her - will definitely be back!

Great host. Comfortable, clean, quiet unit with a great bed and everything we needed. Convenient, free parking. Close to Weimea. Just a perfect spot for us. We would highly recommend this property and will very likely be back here. I'd give it 6 stars if i could.

Private and close to our favorite beaches. Would definitely stay here again.

The location is primo: slightly west of Waimea town, so easy 12 minutes to the beach and providing a lovely climate. The property itself is well maintained and all comforts are provided at the rental. Catrinka is a wonderful, generous and informative host. The quiet of the place is fabulous, as is the view. Two thumbs up.

We had a wonderful stay. Absolutely stunning and relaxing place. I highly recommend!

We stayed here for a week and really loved the place! Beautiful sunrise and sunset always filled with all kinds of different birds chattering. Highly recommend!

The property exudes peace and tranquility in a cozy, yet expansive setting. The ‘neighborhood’ is as perfect as they get, with each of the houses occupying at least 3 acres, individually. Perfect view of Mauna Kea. Unpolluted night skies, on cloudless nights for glimpsing the vastness of our universe… up close and personal. The bed was quite comfortable. Only one disappointment: just a single burner hot plate for cooking. Catrinka is a gracious and considerate host.

It was lovely to wake each morning to birdsong and pastoral views. Perfect for people like us who don't crave crowds. We were close enough to beaches, botanical gardens, farmers markets, historical sights, and amenities that we could easily have our fill of adventures and yet still have a quiet oasis to retreat to. We felt instantly at home! When our home fins didn't fit into our carry on luggage, we prepared ourselves to rent and return fins somewhere on the Big Island. It was a happy surprise to discover that fins and other gear were waiting for us in the storage bin out the back door. And the shelves of books was another delight! There were books for both leisure reading and for learning about learning about Hawaii. It was wonderful to dive into the Hawaiian books to debrief after each day and to tune into the next day's possibilities. As other people have mentioned, the kitchen does not contain a full range, but we found all that we needed and more. And it is easy to see why the place is so comfortable and peaceful; Catrinka is a wonderful host. Always ready and responsive, but never intrusive. For us, it was the perfect place to be! Mahalo nui Catrinka for the wonderful experience!

Everything was wonderful.. Our host, location, emenities, birds, view, cleanliness, advice, books, King bed! Mahola!

My second stay here, and I will return again. A very comfortable and tidy place with an amazing view. Very private with the friendly owner right next door.

This property is very comfortable and classy. It is as cute as the photos. With plenty of towels, closet space, kitchen accessories, a book nook and even a work space it checks all the boxes. It was sparkling clean and the hostess was very gracious. Stay here. You will not be disappointed.

Our stay at Catrinka’s hale was stunning. Every morning I couldn’t believe the breeze coming through, and the views and sounds of nature out every window. It’s a quick drive to Waimea coffee company or Hapuna beach! There were many useful odds and ends as far as kitchen, toiletry, and beach items. Tape and scissors! We swapped pillows for the ones in the closet that were more like ours at home. Any time I needed something I was able to find it, if I wasn’t I knew Catrinka was a phone call away. Would love to stay again!

Loved that this property had absolutely everything you could want to have a very homey experience. We bought some groceries but the kitchen was very well stocked with condiments, oil, jam, cooking tools, etc. We also loved the various living spaces and the beach gear! Would definitely be great for travelers on a budget who want to cook all their meals and do some hiking or exploring on the north side of the island or in Waimea.

Catrinka thought of everything in preparing her home for guests. Well-stocked with quality supplies, well laid out for convenience, beautifully landscaped with a superb view of Mauna Kea, we couldn't have enjoyed it more!!
