FAQs

Great question—they’re actually the same place! Kamuela is the official postal name for the town of Waimea on the Big Island of Hawaii. Locals use both names interchangeably.
Our rental is located in the Mauna Lani Golf Villas, which sit just outside of Waimea in the sunny, resort-side stretch of the Kohala Coast. So whether you’re searching for a Kamuela vacation rental or exploring Waimea Big Island rentals, you're in the right place.
