Directions to Our House from Waimea

Our Address: 46-4091 Old Mamalahoa Hwy., Ahualoa

If you go to Google Maps, it will recommend a route like this:

  1. Head northeast from Mamalahoa Hwy/Hawaii Belt Rd - go 11 mi
  2. Turn right at Kapuna Rd - go 1.4 mi
  3. Turn hard right at Old Mamalahoa Hwy - go 1.6 mi
  4. Look for two white mailboxes next to each other on your left, between two driveways.
    The second driveway (46-4091) is ours.  Go all the way up the driveway.

That works, but i recommend a shorter route on the old highway:

  1. Head northeast from Mamalahoa Hwy/Hawaii Belt Rd - go 4.9 miles
  2. Turn right at Old Mamalahoa Hwy - go 6.5 miles.  There will be miles of open rolling ranchland, until you reach the Ahualoa treeline.
  3. Look for two white mailboxes next to each other on your right, between two driveways.
    The first driveway (46-4091) is ours.  Go all the way up the driveway.
