Welcome to Hale Hamakua!
This beautifully decorated 4 bedroom, 2 bath home is located on a private acre parcel along the Hamakua Coast just north of Hilo where there is nothing to block your views of the mighty Pacific! The large open windows fill the home with light, beauty and magnificent views. Come during the winter months and you will have a front row seat for all the whale activity that you can possibly take in.
The kitchen is large and easy to work in and of course has all the amenities that you will need to cook up those scrumptious island meals. The master bedroom with its en-suite bath, king size bed, private ocean view lanai and entertainment center with TV and DVD, plus wall AC unit is the perfect escape after a long day of sightseeing.
For the other members of your family and kids, there is a TV room, too with another flat screen TV and DVD player. There are 3 other bedrooms with a queen (with wall AC unit), a full size bed (with wall AC unit), and one twin, plus 2 twin sofa beds in the living room. Everyone gets their own space!
From this convenient location, explore old Hilo town with its great farmers market and historical museums and must see stops. Also discover beautiful Akaka Water Falls Park and the Old Mamalahoa Highway, the original highway built back in the 20’s that took you from Hilo town to the beautiful horse country of Waimea.
From the house, you’re only a short 20 minute drive to the south to Hilo, 20 minutes to the north to Honokaa town, Waipio Valley and from there just another few minutes to the beautiful white sandy Hapuna Beach.
Come to Hale Hamakua, your vacation destination on the east side of the Big Island!
Please expect to share your space with some of our friendly Hawaii geckos, lizards, birds, and plants.

The property was plenty big for our party of eight. There were spots for all of us to have time to ourselves after a day of sightseeing or spending time at the beach. Though it is far from the Kona sights, we didn't mind. There is plenty to see and do in Hilo. Volcanoes National Park is only about an hour away as is Hapuna Beach for snorkeling. The zoo in Hilo is well-kept, beautiful, and free! We had a wonderful time celebrating college graduations on this beautiful property.

Hale hamakua was a nice place to stay during the Merrie Monarch week. It's a lengthy drive but worth the drive. Home is clean, maintained and like the solitude away from town. Definitely stay again.

This property is quite out of the way, far from the bustle of Hilo but close enough to make trips into town easy. We found it to be a good home base for seeing all that the Big Island has to offer. The property’s outdoor spaces are absolutely wonderful! We loved watching birds, whales, and chickens while our young boys ran around the back yard. We like to cook and the kitchen had just enough to enable us to make whatever we wanted. Everything was clean and functional, and the supply of beach chairs, snorkels, flippers, boogie board, and cooler were much appreciated for our family trips to the beach. We would stay again for sure.

A very spacious house that accommodated 9 of us. We chose this location for a family gathering because we live on opposite sides of the world; coming from the Midwest in the U.S. to Japan. Peaceful view on a bluff with a nice outdoor deck. Quiet setting. Lots of outdoor beauty to explore. Volcanos, waterfalls, incredible ocean shores and even an area with hot pools. About 20 minutes to Hilo.

We enjoyed our stay at Hale Hamakua. The view and grounds were beautiful. We loved the birds and geckos. We had two couples and the two beds we used were comfortable, and we appreciated the beach towels, chairs, and ice chest (although we could have used a smaller one...). The labeled light switches were a nice touch. The kitchen had everything we needed as far as cookware and dinnerware although it would have been nice to have a few spices available. The main road was close, but the road noise was minimal. We would stay here again!

Our family of 6--4 adults and 2 teenagers--enjoyed staying at this house in early July 2023. Our stay was delightful. The house was clean, well equipped, and ideal for our needs. It was so nice being able to look out at any time of day and seeing the ocean and beautiful clouds in a deep blue sky. It was fun watching geckos on the outside of the house. We used the television only once, to watch videos we had captured while snorkeling with green sea turtles. There is very limited access to groceries nearby, but Hilo was close enough that we could pick up anything we needed, usually while traveling to our many destinations on the island. It was nice having access to a washer and dryer. The kitchen contained all the tools we needed to prepare our meals, so we ate very well (probably too well). When I asked how everyone like the house, they all said it was ideal and they would like to return someday. I fully agree.

The property was clean, if a bit too well-used. Views were wonderful and ocean-oriented. Rooms were airy and bright. Geckos, frogs, and birds were an added gift!

This house was such a lovely welcome for us on our first trip to Hawaii! The house was spotless (our most important criteria) and provided everything we needed for a fantastic week, including beach towels and a cooler. Plus, the view from the back deck is breathtaking! I could have stayed out there all week except that there are so many things to do on the big island. Mahalo for an unforgettable vacation!
