Kamuela View Estates offers a sought-after blend of comfortable living, community spirit, and a deep connection to the area's rich paniolo (Hawaiian cowboy) heritage. This established neighborhood, comprising just over 100 homes, built mostly in the 1980s & 90s, provides residents with stunning vistas, often culminating in some of the most incredible sunsets Hawaii has to offer.
The Waimea area was originally a significant agricultural and fishing region for Native Hawaiians. The landscape and culture underwent a profound transformation with the arrival of
John Palmer Parker, who built the
Parker Ranch in 1815. This not only shaped the Big Island's interior but also the culture, creating the iconic Paniolo tradition.
While Waimea has grown over the years, it has proudly maintained its "country" feel, offering a place where residents can enjoy spaciousness, tranquility, and a connection to the land.
