A comfortable cottage by the sea

This little cottage was just what I imagined. It sits in a neighborhood, a block from the main street and yet across the street from the beach. A well appointed space with both a front porch and a back porch BBQ area. I loved the outdoor shower and tub. We had a couple issues and Kristen was right there to help and easily handled things. I felt like it was worth the price to have what seems like rare accomm0dation offerings. I would stay here again. I loved Waimea.

Quaint Cozy Cotrage

We absolutely loved our stay at the Waimea Beach cottage! It was quaint, comfortable, clean, and cozy, providing all the amenities we desired. The outdoor tub and shower, the front porch were highlights, and we enjoyed the close proximity to the fishing pier and Wrangler Steakhouse. The sunset views near the pier were breathtaking, and we even spotted dolphins during our visit! This sweet cowboy town has our heart with its quiet, local charm that made our experience even more special. We will certainly be back in the future and are already planning a return trip for 2 to 4 weeks next winter! Highly recommended for anyone looking for a delightful getaway. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Everything was as described. We had a great time. However, the neighbor across the street feeds the chickens, so there is a large population in this neighborhood and the roosters start crowing in the early morning hours. We eventually got used to the noise!

Great Cottage Getaway in Waimea

Our stay in this cottage was quite delightful. It was very clean when we arrived and very well stocked with everything we needed - right down to brand new beach chairs that arrived while we were there. The bakyard patio and yard were delightful. Highly recommend this place for a great stay.

Ideal location, loads of charm

From the beach cottage it was an easy walk to local eateries, the market, the beach, the pier, the library, and horseback riding stables. The cottage itself has been so nicely updated. We especially enjoyed the beautiful kitchen and the private outdoor shower. The neighborhood roosters, chickens and cats all welcomed us. Totally charming place!
