Kohala Ranch, located along the scenic North Kohala Coast on the Big Island of Hawaii, is a gated community offering ideal vacation rental homes. Visitors enjoy vistas of the nearby Hualalai, Mauna Loa, and Mauna Kea volcanoes. Spanning 3,900 acres, Kohala Ranch runs from mauka to makai, and from 300 to 3,000 feet above sea level. Kohala Ranch is home to three distinct communities that provide lovely travel accomodations: The Heathers, The Meadows, and at the highest altitudes, The Summit.
If you’re vacationing here, don’t miss the quaint and historical towns of Kapa‘au Hawi to the north, and along the western coastline, Kawaihae. Inland, visitors to the area can learn about Hawaii's rich paniolo (cowboy) history in Waimea, home to ranchers for more than a century. Visit Waimea for the historic town’s rich cultural life, theaters, farmers’ markets, and excellent farm-to-table dining. Also, don't miss the gorgeous crescent of white sand at Hapuna Beach, or the snorkeling and diving in the clear waters off of Waialea Beach, a designated marine life conservation district.
