About this property
Captain's Quarters Cottage on Kamuela's Nob Hill
Enjoy the cool setting of Kamuela. Located in the famed hub of Parker Ranch the beloved central point of verdant cattle country rich in Island history. Located on one of the hillsides above Kamuela town, this Cozy Chateau style cottage sits near the top of the hill featuring unique architectural design with a cozy deck which facilitates indoor/outdoor living. Stargazing is Prime on a clear night. Ocean views are enjoyed from the lanai. The Big Island's best beaches and resorts are only about a 15 minute drive from the property.
Please be advised that some of the older reviews on this site were based on the main house of the property which was operated as a VRBO vacation rental from 2015 - 2020. The current Captain's Quarters rental is the studio/cottage on the property as shown in photos. We invite you to stay at our lovely cottage which we trust you will thoroughly enjoy. Please provide some brief information about yourself and your stay when making the reservation request. I like to have a bit of information about our guests before accepting reservation requests. Max occupancy is two people.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Jay Chavez

Captain Jay Chavez is a retired ship's Captain, pictured here with wife Diane off the Island of Kauai on the NCL Cruise Ship Pride of Aloha, he commanded prior to retirement. Jay and Diane are long time residents of the Big Island and have raised two Sons in Waimea. The Big Island is a great place to enjoy the outdoors.
Why they chose this property
The peaceful location in the center of town offers so many advantages. The location is perfect for long walks, convenience to shops and restaurants and has a relaxing vibe.
What makes this property unique
Waimea has a lot of micro climates and the dry side of Waimea is often desired. It frequently rains daily which keeps the hillsides green but there is a magical quality about watching the sky at night when the sun sets. We fell in love with this unique cottage. The owners live on property in the main house.
