Family-friendly vacation rentals in Waimea

This was the best first Airbnb experience. We were celebrating our 10-year anniversary with our 3 young kids. This home was just beautiful. The photos do not do enough justice. The home was super spacious and TV in both rooms. Our 5yr old enjoyed the jacuzzi because it was shallow and warm. The pool was huge with a diving board. It was nice having the outdoor kitchen and grill. We were able to prepare our food while also watching the kids swim. We enjoyed her papayas, avocados, and mango. Ms. Sandra shared with us her organic eggs from her chickens, Kale, beets, basil, and lettuce from her garden. Every morning when I woke up, I couldn't wait to open the curtains and windows to see the view and hear the birds. I could go on and on about this place. Thank you Ms. Sandra. It was such a pleasure meeting you and spending time in you beautiful home🙏

What an oasis - unusual to find such a gem among the trees, birds and frogs. Small touches everywhere - homemade baked goods, cozy sweatpants, fresh flowers from the surrounding gardens, bug spray and a hot soaking tub- everything you need to relax and feel at home.

We had a great stay at Lorelle Petite Retreat apartment. We loved the location being on the hill; it was nice, cool and tranquil. The space was clean and well shocked. Lorelle is a very generous, friendly person.We would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing vacation.

We had a wonderful time and really enjoyed our stay! The spacious Villa was super clean, well maintained and the beds were comfortable. Lots of beach items to use, short walk to the community pool, tennis court and barbecue. Quiet and peaceful with a very relaxing feel. Seth is a great host! Would diffinetly stay here again.

Great place. Exactly like the photos. hot tub was very comfortable. hot tub faces the road but lots of bushes and trees for privacy.

Such a tranquil rest and rejuvenation spot in between adventures! Wish we could’ve stayed longer and spent more time at the magical home! Hot tub was great too! Had everything we needed and more! Loved every minute and will be back! Mahalo Nui Loa from Maui :)

We will rent this home again if we are back to the Big Island! We really enjoyed the different spaces. The interior was open concept and a great gathering space. The lanai porch was peaceful and very pleasant mornings and evenings. The outdoor shower and hot tub was a great space for small groups to gather.

My family had a great time at Kevin & Cindy’s. The unit was great and the location was perfect for accessing all of the Kona activities and restaurants. We used the pool every day and the whole experience was lovely. Hosts were very communicative and helpful. 5/5!

Thank you kindly for the opportunity to stay in your home. We appreciated your great location in Kona! Hope to stay with you again next time.

Jim is a very friendly and accommodating host. Nice house with a very nice bathroom.

The location was perfect! The beach was very close and there were many restaurants and shops just down the street. The inside was immaculate and was the perfect stay for my mom, daughter, and myself. There were so many amenities and items that were useful in the house, such thoughtful hosts. We would definitely stay again when we come back.

This is a gem of a place that’s is located in a peaceful perfect location. Valerie was friendly and helpful throughout the entire process. She offered flexible early check in and late check out which we found very useful. Would highly recommend this place if you wish to stay on this beautiful island.

Had an incredible experience at Joe's Jungle Treehouse. I wanted something quiet, more remote yet not too far out, with a jungle vibe. And this place is just that. I loved it and hope to be back in that hammock again soon! Thanks Joe!

Lucky to grab this location for a few days. Accommodations were great for three parties of folks. Especially great one couple could bring their dog. Unfortunately, we missed the volcano eruptions, which started the day we checked out for home. They seemed to have everything you might need and super cozy, including the reclining couch sections were comfortable enough to sleep in!!

Great place to go off the grid. It had everything we needed. One of the staff members greeted us when we got there and showed us around. Very friendly and answered all our questions. A+. Beautiful place, would recommend. Just don't park under the coconut trees. :)

Quick responses and very helpful when issues came up.

We chose this property because of the close proximity to the ocean. There is no beach but you can definitely hear the waves crashing and it was very tropical. Besides the house next door, it is very private. Plenty of kitchen appliances, plateware, and silverware. The neighbors were friendly, including their dog. Overall, we had a great stay would definitely recommend this house if you are looking for peaceful, quiet time on the island.

Fantastic stay! The Ohana is clean, comfortable, very well stocked and super cute. We loved the views and peaceful surroundings. We had everything we needed and the hosts were terrific. They were happy to chat and provide recommendations or let us be. Thanks so much for a wonderful stay!

Great townhouse equipped with all we could need for our stay. Townhouse is really clean and comfortable and the complex itself is really well maintained, quiet and not crowded. There was always space at the pool and at the courts. Location is great, close to Kailua, few minutes walk from one of the best snorkeling beaches on the island. Brad is a great host, thoughtful and very responsive. We are looking forward to coming back!

We had a wonderful time at Cooks Landing! Our first impression was 'WOW'. At first we were skeptical about some of the photos seeming dark... but the pictures do not do this place justice. Beautiful home that is located in a beautiful private community. It was clean and well stocked with plenty of extras that you may need from either home use or the beach. We loved the location, which was located not far from a key highway intersection that could take you to your Hawaiian adventure. The Ocean Club (pool) pictures do not do it justice either! It had a great design that overlooked the ocean that was perfect for watching the sunset with a Mai Tai in hand! I would say that the pool is family friendly too. It had shallow depth & a spot that toddlers could play in. It had a bar, restaurant, and tasteful live local music. 12/10 would recommend this place. A very big MAHALO to Jim & Kristi for opening this beautiful home to people.

Kona coast vacations has always been a great host and this time was no different. They were responsive to any issues that came up with the property very quickly. The place is comfortable and spacious

Beautiful place and great to work with! Would do it all over again

We loved our stay at Mary’s place! Although it was a little more remote than expected, we appreciated the access to the different beautiful beaches in the neighborhood. The snorkeling at Manini Beach was spectacular! Because we had our 8 month old granddaughter with us, we also spent a lot of time in the beautiful pool. The “glamping” aspect of our stay was fun and we enjoyed the sounds of nature, particularly our rooster alarm at the crack of dawn which certainly helped us get our days started. We would highly recommend Mary’s place and wouldn’t hesitate staying again when on the island.

This spacious home was amazing. We fit 8 people in this home with plenty of room to move around. This is an older home and some wear and tear was visible when we arrived. We simply took photos and shared with owner on items that needed attention in the future. This home has wonderful views of the ocean, it is not far from a Costco and a Walmart for quick and easy shopping. The home was supplied with all the basic needs like toilet paper, paper towels, bathroom soap, dish soap, dishwasher pods, tissue and much, much more. There is a large TV downstairs that our kiddos spent their down time watching. Kitchen was stocked with everything you need to cook a complete meal. Three bathrooms was a huge blessing for the size of our group. The owner was responsive and helpful for every inquriy.
