Incredible accommodations with views of inactive volcanoes and the ocean. A true piece of paradise. With the elevation came welcomed cooler temperatures for sleeping. While attached to the main house, it was very peaceful listening to the birds. The private covered lanai with comfortable furniture and private grill was a treat. The hosts, Julie and Bob, were very thoughtful with the amenities and made us feel like we were at home. Highly recommend if you are planning to visit the big island. About 20 minutes from fabulous Mauna Kea beach - be there by 8am to ensure one of 25 free public parking spots.
This was a very good unit for two people and the hosts were very responsive and informative. The weather here is a little more moderate than down at sea level and has a great route over to Waimea and Hawi.

Kohala Ranch
Space was clean with nice furnishings, excellent view and nice owners.
Washer and dryer a plus!
We spent an amazing 33 days in Julie & Bob’s Ohana! The views are gorgeous and the area is quiet and peaceful. Julie & Bob are wonderful hosts and we enjoyed getting to know them. We hope to return soon!

Jaw-dropping views!
The 180 degree view from the lanai is spectacular - volcanoes and ocean - as far as you can see. And the slightly cooler temps in the evenings are so pleasant after a day of snorkeling and hiking. Mahalo!
It was perfect for anyone who loves the peace,quiet and beauty of the Kohala Coast. Hosts Bob and Julie were so accommodating and very respectful of our privacy. The ohana unit was immaculate and exactly as advertised. It will be our go to place from now on
Loved the location! Remote, quiet and beautiful. Perfect for exploring the northern half of the island. The views from unit are outstanding. The unit is comfortably and stylishly decorated. I really appreciated the owners thinking of touches like snorkel gear, coolers and beach towels. I had a perfect week here!

Beautiful View. Lovely House. Great Location.
This is a wonderful guest house perfect for a couple or small family. It was wonderful to begin each day with a cup of coffee and breakfast on the lanai. The amazing view encompassed mountains, ocean and shoreline. Julie and Bob were amazing hosts who were available to answer our questions from the time we booked the property until we checked out.
We enjoyed the location, which gave us easy access to beaches, Waimea, and other retail including a dive shop. We will definitely stay here again the next time we are on the Big Island.

Beautiful and clean property. Location involved a bit more driving than we were wanting
Well maintained, clean, nice furnishings. Lovely views. Enjoyed the cooler nights. The location was a bit further away from what we wanted to do, but not enough to keep us from not going. Owners are nice folks, avaiaable for questions. Kitchen well stocked with cooking untensils.
We loved staying at Hale Ka Nani. The ohana has everything you need for a perfect holiday. The location is beautiful and peaceful. The kitchen is loaded with everything needed to cook delicious meals with local produce, meats and fish. The view from the lanai showcases Hawaii’s mountains and the Pacific Ocean and spectacular sunsets! We definitely would rate this property 20/10! Loved it!

Amazing place!!
The guest house is the perfect place to enjoy peace and quiet (and watch the stars at night and whales during the day from the large lanai), with easy access to Hawai'i's best beaches (10 min drive), high-end shopping and dining (15 min) drive, but most important: the most gracious and welcoming hosts possible. Bob and Julie made us feel truly at home and provided everything to make our stay memorable and delightful - thank you both!!
The house has everything you may be looking for: from basics to herbs and spices in the kitchen (including fresh rosemary from the garden), a spacious modern bathroom with walk-in shower, comfortable beds, plenty of towels and beach gear, and a well-furbished, spectacular lanai with 180 deg ocean view.
We will definitely be back - no better place to stay on the Kohala coast!
I have been wanting to stay at this property for quite some time and this home was certainly worth the wait! The location, the huge ocean/mountain views, the night sky, I could go on and on. Communication with the owners was excellent and frankly, they were two of the best hosts I have ever met.The photos do not lie. This property is clean and there was even a mid-month cleaning included while I was there.
This island is big! So having some of the best beaches right down the road is another benefit to staying in this area.
Another wonderful trip for the books and I look forward to (hopefully!) staying there again. Aloha!

Quiet comfortable Ohana
My husband and I stayed in Bob and Julie’s Ohana for 2 weeks during the recent (ongoing) Haleakala volcanic eruption on the Big Island. The Ohana is well-equipped, compact, beautifully decorated and comfortable for 2, but would accommodate another (close) couple or kids. The North Kohala Ranch area is gated and very quiet, which we appreciated, however party animals are not welcome on the Ranch. Groceries, shopping, bars and restaurants, beaches, etc., are a drive away. Hawi and Waimea are both about a 20 minute drive and the beautiful beaches on the Kohala Coast are about a 30 minute drive south. Although vog did not affect our health during our visit, it definitely affected the ocean view unless the trade winds blew it away, and any trip to Kona or further south brought us into the thick of it. The Ohana is attached to Bob and Julie’s home, with private access and enough privacy for comfort. We are very familiar with the BI and did not need vacation advice, but Bob and Julie are happy to provide whatever help you would need. We enjoyed our time at Hale Ka Nani and would stay there again.

Hale Ka Nani; Hawaii living at its very best
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to actually live in Hawaii? Alas, it is not to be for me - and yet- my husband and I recently spent a month in the Hale Ka Nani ohana on Kohala Ranch, island of Hawaii, and that is as near as one can get to actually living in this beautiful island if you aren't able to do so. The ohana is a lovely 3 room self-contained guest house adjacent to, but separate from the owner's main house, with its own entrance, driveway, washer/dryer and furnished lanai, which overlooks the ocean, and the mountains Mauna Kea, Mauna Loa, and Hualalai. On a clear day one can see the island of Maui. Sunsets are spectacular. I have seen the legendary "Green Flash" twice since I've been here.
The newly completed unit is beautifully decorated and thoughtfully equipped with everything one would need to make a stay here very comfortable. What a great place for writing a book, reading a novel, unwinding, renewing, and just enjoying all the things Hawaii has to offer.
Mahalo, Hale Ka Nani!
Always an excellent stay here. Beautiful coastline views, peaceful and away from the crowds. Bob and Julie make sure everything is perfect! Just love it up here.
This property gives you the feel of the Big Island at its best. The hosts exude the aloha spirit. The apartment is beautifully decorated. The view from the deck includes lots of wild birds as well as rolling hills and the ocean. It is a little bit of a drive to stores and restaurants, but that's a plus if you want to avoid tourist crowds. Thank you Bob and Julie for sharing your piece of Paradise.
The rental is a beautiful place to stay. Loved the decor. The location was great. Open country views. Our stay was marred only by the limitations of state and county parks and beaches being closed because of the Corona virus prevention. We'll have to go back someday to really see the island.
My husband and I stayed in this guest house for 4 days/ 5 nights. The home was perfectly clean, organized and well appointed for a lengthy stay. The home is modern and tastefully decorated. It is located in a scenic and quiet neighborhood. The best part of this home is the incredible 180 degree view from the lanai overlooking ranch lands and the Kohala coast. The peaceful and beautiful view added much enjoyment to our time in Hawaii. The owners were friendly, responsive and clearly take great pride in their guest home. I would stay here again and highly recommend it to others looking for beauty, peace and relaxation.
We really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful and peaceful location. The deck view was spectacular and morning coffee there became our routine. We loved the wildlife in the ranch: wild turkeys and pigs!
The apartment was comfortable, well equipped, and so nicely decorated. We’ve been to the BI many times, but this was our first stay in No. Kohala. Hopefully, not our last. Mahalo to our hosts Bob & Julie.
