About Waimea

With a population of just over 7,000 in the cooler mountainous area of the Big Island, Waimea, Hawaii is centrally located at the northern part of the island, just about 45 minutes from the Kona-Keahole Airport. The area is largely know for its cattle-ranching community. Residents looking for a house for rent or an apartment for rent here will find that ten percent of the island is owned by the largest private ranch in the U.S., the Parker Ranch, which encompasses 225,000 acres along with a Parker Ranch Museum and Thelma Parker Theater. The Parker Ranch Historic Homes and Garden also offers tours of several Parker family historic homes, which contain magnificent art collections. There's plenty to do in Waimea, from hiking, tennis and golf to simply relaxing on the beach, biking or horseback riding at Dahana Ranch and Paniolo Riding Adventure. Not everyone in search of a house for rent or an apartment for rent need be a cattle rancher though. Employment opportunities range from doctors, nurses and staff at the North Hawaii Community Hospital and Kauai Veterans Memorial Hospital, astronomers and other staff for the Keck and Canada-France-Hawaii Observatories, and faculty, staff and students of the Hawaii Preparatory Academy.
