Kamuela Apartment | Summer Special Best Location GH

1 Bedroom Apartment in Kamuela

This charming and spacious Garden Hale Apartment is situated on a lush two acres on the sunny side of Waimea (Kamuela)
Our peaceful retreat is the perfect location for exploring the numerous points of interest on the Big Island and a private getaway to relax and experience 'Hawaiian Time'.
It features beautiful bamboo and stone floors, 9 feet ceilings with fans, and a private lanai and outdoor seating and grilling. A fully stocked kitchen with a full size refrigerator, large convection oven and two state of the art induction cooktops. The bedroom features a comfortable queen size bed with upscale linens. Private outdoor shower garden. Free parking is provided.
You will find yourself just minutes away from the best beaches on the Big Island. The largest of Hawaii Island’s white sand beaches, Hapuna Beach, has consistently been rated on numerous international Top Ten lists. Mauna Kea Beach, a perfect crescent of golden sand leading to calm water, has been voted among the Top 10 beaches in the U.S. Both offer great conditions for swimming, sunbathing, body boarding and snorkeling.
Beyond the beaches, Hawaii offers a host of outdoor activities and sightseeing opportunities. Head to Waimea and visit the many shops and galleries.
Waimea Town is the perfect starting point for a trip to the Volcano National Park. A memorable drive to Hilo along the Hamakua Coast offers breathtaking views of historic Waipio Valley. This area is also home to Akaka Falls, one of Hawaii's most famous. You'll see deep water-carved gulches and valleys, thick with tropical foliage. Stop and tour gardens full of exotic plants and orchids.
For adventure of a higher nature, the 13,700 foot summit of Mauna Kea provides dramatic scenery and an unforgettable visitor experience. The W. M. Keck Observatory provides a visitor’s gallery with exhibits describing astronomy research and star gazing.
There's no better way to experience the amazing cultural diversity of Hawaii Island than to visit one of the farmers’ markets that take place all around the island. You’ll find fresh, locally grown fruits and vegetables used in Hawaii Regional Cuisine, exotic varieties that are as intriguing as they are tasty plus an eclectic collection of prepared foods. The market is also a great place to pick up handmade artwork or a unique gift and strike up a conversation with the artist who made them.
When you're ready for some relaxation, come home to Garden Hale.
Let us know if you will be celebrating a special occasion or have a certain needs. We will do all we can to accommodate your request. You will always feel welcome and long to return to our unique retreat.

Summary: My husband and I enjoyed our stay at Matt & Rose's place! First, the location was perfect for us. It's only a 10 to 15 minute drive to our favorite beaches. And about 10 minutes to Waimea which has some nice restaurants, great farmer's markets, grocery stores and cute shops. The guest house is in a quiet residential neighborhood. It has a full kitchen with everything we needed, and a lovely bedroom and living room area with tv. The only shower, it should be noted, is the outdoor shower. It was perfectly fine during our stay, with the exception of the last day when I showered before 7am and it was cloudy and windy out. But there was plenty of hot water so it was ok. Matt was available if needed and communication was great. I was glad there was a beach umbrella and beach chairs and towels for us to use. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to come back again!

Summary: We have stayed with Matt & Rose before, and will again. The property is beautiful and so peaceful and relaxing. Matt met us when we arrived, and explained everything that’s new about the Ohana we stayed in. We had a wonderful time. Thank you.

Summary: The place was clean. My biggest complaint was spotty internet. Quite often the internet would go down interupting any access. Other than that, a nice place to stay.

Summary: We had a great visit! Matt was a thoughtful and welcoming host. The accommodations were clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the outdoor shower and private backyard. Kitchen facilities were great to cook meals in. Overall, we would recommended it as a great place to access ocean beaches, and the Waimea end of the Big Island. Great WiFi which made my working from remote easy to do.

Summary: We had a wonderful stay at this cottage. Located in Kamuela, just west of Waimea, the surroundings were rural and very quiet. The cottage was well appointed, with most everything you would need during your visit. It was tastefully decorated and comfortable. If you’re looking for a vacation rental away from crowds, I would recommend this lovely abode.

Summary: This was our second visit to the Garden Hale, we found it as welcoming and relaxing and quiet. We were looking for a base to spend time on the beach, enjoy upcountry farmers markets and take in the multitude of starry skies in the evening, we found it here. The kitchen is setup is excellent, most everything you’d need as well as a new bbq outside. The outdoor shower is pleasant and warm, the bed was comfy. We didn’t need the AC, as the ceiling fans and a good cross breeze through open windows was wonderful. Matt was quick to respond to any questions and very accommodating in helping us add an extra night, lucky us. Thanks for the lemons too! We hope to return soon

Summary: Wonderful 6-night stay at Garden Hale! The Hale was exceptionally clean, beautifully appointed, and very comfortable. Rose and Matt responded quickly to all communications (mahalo for the personalized aloha message; that was an extra-nice touch!). Perfect location for accessing Waikoloa beaches, as well as exploring North Kohala (lots of great areas), Honoka'a, Waipio Valley Lookout, and Saddle Road hikes. We would definitely stay at Garden Hale again. It was very quiet and peaceful.
