About this property
Ohana Hale at Kahua Ranch - Private Ranch Paradise in Kohala -
Aloha! The Ohana Hale at Kahua Ranch is located in the Kohala Mountains on the stunning, privately owned, 4000 acre Kahua Ranch. We are a working ranch with sheep, cattle and horses and one adorable pig. Breathe in some of the world's freshest, crisp, clean air that travels 2500 miles across the ocean and is filtered down through our lush rain forest.
Conveniently located between the beautiful ranching town of Waimea (Kamuela) and historic Hawi town with it's dining, gift shops, art galleries, and coffee house; the views from the Ranch grounds are unparalleled!
Perfect for vacation/family getaways, or just local holo holo ( go on adventures); the Hale has 2 bedrooms, a queen master suite with it's own flat screen TV and a second surf themed bedroom with a pilowtop full size bed, both have spacious closets. A pillowtop punee' (twin size) located in the living room sleeps a fifth person if needed. The Hale has one full bathroom, a completely stocked kitchen which includes a jumbo microwave, countertop oven, full stove, dishwasher and refrigerator. Soft, organic cotton sheets, plush bedding and ample towels are provided. Amazon Fire TV, on the flat screen and blazing fast Internet is provided. There are dedicated laundry facilities (washer and dryer) within the Ohana with detergent. A new sun deck with a new BBQ grill fronts the Hale under the pines with PASTURE AND MOUNTAIN VIEWS.
The Ohana Hale is new carriage house construction with all the modern conveniences, located just adjacent to the Ranch Retreat at Kahua. This Ohana was built for friends and family and there are no full ocean views from within the house or the price would reflect this! Guests are able to stroll on property to unparalleled views steps away for stargazing and inspiration. We have been able to keep our prices affordable for return and long term guests year after year :)
The best of the Big Island’s beaches (Hapuna, Mauna Kea) are a short 20-30 (depending on traffic) minutes drive South- and a cooler, chairs boogie boards and large beach towels are also provided for fun in the sun. Snorkling, diving and swimming in Hawaii’s crystal clear waters are a short drive to the Kohala Coast as well as other water activities are available at Kawaihae Harbor (20 min drive). If hiking and strolling is your preference, the black sand beach at Pololu Valley is 30 minutes away, through the town of Hawi as well as many other neighboring trails.

The house and hosts were terrific! Staying on the ranch was a fun experience. Our kids loved being able to see horses everyday and the views were breathtaking! Thanks for an awesome vacation!
Perfect spot to explore the north west coast of the Big Island. Beautiful, expansive farmland/ pastures overlooking the Kohala coastline. Unfortunately the weather was uncooperative during our short stay but we enjoyed the very clean and accommodating house. Terri was very responsive and helpful with suggestions on the surrounding area. Comfortable beds and everything you need for preparing meals, etc. The complimentary coffee was much appreciated! We wish we could have stayed longer. Mahalo for sharing this house with us! :-)
Clean and cozy lodging. Especially enjoyed the horses , sheep, and cattle on the green hills of this working ranch, visible from our windows. The kitchen was well equipped, and having a washer and dryer very much appreciated.
Wonderful spot surrounded by lush rolling hills of horses and cattle grazing and looking at you curiously as you go by. There’s a slice of water view from the kitchen but you really have to walk the grounds to get the best views. Gorgeous sunsets in clear weather, misty storybook pastures when overcast. It was nice to be up in the highlands, quieter and cooler than Waikoloa and Kona, making sleep much more peaceful. Easy distance to Waimea for shops and restaurants. Host Terri was welcoming and helpful. The hale was well equipped, the living room was comfortable for lounging. Going horseback riding on the grounds is a must to fully appreciate the ranch. Looking forward to staying here again in future.
We had a great time here, I only wish we'd stayed longer. This was a beautiful location and a wonderful place to stay. It was nice to see the ranch functioning around us and to see the horses, cattle and sheep.Teri and company were always available and helpful. I highly recommend staying here.
Wonderful getaway spot in quiet Kohala. Terri was very helpful and gave us excellent guidance. The view from the yard and windows in the living room was awe inspiring! Such fun to be greeted by wandering horses!
Such a beautiful property and location! This spot really captures the beauty of the Kohala coast. It is a more rural region away from the big resorts. With that comes the sounds of farm life and a more tranquil environment. Yet, access to beautiful beaches and hikes were not too far away. Thank you so much Terri and Tim!
Such a beautiful place to enjoy! The location is a phenomenal jumping off point to some great beaches and the northern portion of the island. The beds were comfortable, the beach supplies were plentiful, and everything was clean. It was perfect for what we needed it for.
Terri and Tim were fantastic hosts. It is a little out of the way but 100% worth the extra drive. We loved the comfort and privacy of the house. The layout of the venue is better in person. We loved the surrounding environment of the large ranch. Extremely peaceful place and a very unique experience. Highly recommended a stay with Terri and Tim.
We stayed for two nights with our three kids and absolutely loved this ranch property! The scenery is stunning and the owner is wonderful! Highly recommended!
