Steps to the Ocean, Puako "Dream House"

What a beautiful house that was perfectly appointed. We made dinner here every night and watched the sun rise every morning… thanks for a great vacation!

Beautiful home in a wonderful neighborhood. We’ll be back!

We staid in this wonderful house for a week this summer and everything was perfect from the house itself, location and the hospitality. We absolutely loved it and will be coming back!

Super roomy and well decorated property with plenty of amenities! We had stayed in Pauko once before and really enjoyed our return trip. Beach access is very close, and property has beach chars, some snorkeling gear, and plenty of towels. The coast is rocky with strips of sand, lots of turtles, and good snorkeling. The hosts were very helpful and responsive. Definitely five stars!

It was the perfect place for our stay. Would stay again. The house is lovely and the team that takes care of you and the house were so thoughtful and kind. Great neighborhood as well. Could not have been happier.

Alex was super accomodating. The house was well stocked and in wonderful location. Short, short walk to beach with snorkling and turtles. The house is really beautiful with ac in each room and trade winds blowing throughout the day.

Our family of 4 stayed here with my in-laws, and we had the best week ever. Puako is (in our opinion) perfectly located to take advantage of most of the swimming/ water play beaches/entry points up and down the western coast. Then the waters in front of Puako are the cleanest and clearest we have found anywhere. The house is brilliant and a pleasure to stay in. It is full of thoughtful and convenient amenities to ensure you have a restive stay. Communication with the host/team supporting the property is instantaneous and considerate. We found all house rules and requests reasonable. The front yard and downstairs lounge area were amenities that were taken more advantage of than anticipated. Our son spent hours kicking a ball around the yard, drawing, and playing ping pong downstairs. Our daughter lounged and read on the sofa, as did we. It is a wonderful space for any time of day. Overall, we enjoyed our time in Puako and felt so lucky to have found this gorgeous property to explore from it. We hope to return soon. Mahalo Puako!

We had a fantastic stay in this home. The owner and property manager couldn’t have been nicer, more thoughtful and more attentive. We arrived to a clean, beautiful home with a tray of Hawaiian treats for us and card wishing my husband and I a happy anniversary. The property manager called throughout the week to ensure we had everything we needed. The home is across the street from the ocean with multiple access points to beach/ocean/snorkeling areas. It is close to popular destinations, restaurants, shopping, etc…..but the community is somewhat a best kept secret hidden away from the highway so it’s relaxed and quiet. The house easily accommodated our family of five and was well stocked with everything we needed and more. I would not hesitate returning to this home for future visits to the island.

We loved our stay in this beautiful home. The pictures and description of the property are accurate. Owner/property manager were communicative and easy to reach. We would absolutely recommend this house to anyone and we would love to stay again in the future. So peaceful yet still close to a lot of things.

House was beautiful and in a wonderful location. A++++

There isn’t anything we would want to change about this vacation rental in Puako. It is a stunning home that 100% embodies the Aloha spirit. Absolutely everything a person could want or need is included. We have vacationed in this wonderful little town for 35 years but this was our first time at this particular rental property. We had our adult children and their keikis with us and despite some of us getting the flu on the flight over, we still were able to make wonderful memories. We would certainly stay here again. The listing doesn’t mention there is a Graco portable crib in the ohana and knowing this ahead of time would have saved us bringing our own. I would suggest adding this info to the VRBO listing. Guests will be asked to comply with house rules that include careful attention to the plumbing and septic system but this is standard with all Puako rentals and shouldn’t be considered a deterrent. Additionally, the on-island property manager was always on call to answer any questions we had. We lived like royalty for the week we were there. Mahalo.

Hale Moe Uhane is a lovely very comfortable home in a great location near the end of Puako Road, perfect for long walks along the ocean trail. It is as clean as any rental can be and has all equipment necessary for a memorable stay. The managers communicated well and were attentive to any issue that arose. We’ll be back!

The house was terrific with a great kitchen, several comfortable communal spaces, and nicely appointed private spaces. Consequently, our party could happily spend 10 days doing a variety of activities: reading, playing ping pong, watching TV, doing yoga -- all interspersed with outside fun, including walking the beach path, swimming in the bay, snorkeling and body boarding at nearly Hapuna beach. The house was spectacular -- the beds and furniture comfortable, the kitchen well appointed, the outside space peaceful. We would love to spend more time at Hale Moe' Uhane.
