Embrace the spirit of Aloha while enjoying the best weather on the island with gentle breezes, sunshine, and a peaceful feeling of serenity at the Turtle Hut! Take in the gorgeous ocean views and colorful sunrises right from your large lanai that opens both from your bedroom and your living area.

Enjoy watching the birds and listening to their happy chirping as you soak in the sun or swim in the beautifully maintained and refreshing pool. Sit in the hot tub and allow the warmth to soak into your muscles and relax you as you take in the views of the beautiful lush green hills and the ocean waves in the background.
The peaceful and remote location allows you to fully relax and let go of life’s stresses as you enjoy your vacation away from it all! You can take a short 5-10 minute stroll to the famous Black Sand Beach, where the protected green sea turtles can be seen in their natural habitat. Watching them bask in the sun on the beach or observing them slowly returning to the water can be quite mesmerizing! Just a few steps further leads you along the ancient Ala Kahakai Trail fronting our resort and beyond for a little walking adventure.
Located a short 30 minute drive away is the amazing Volcanoes National Park and its awesome eruption shows. Other short drive trips to explore your surroundings include the gorgeous Green Sands Beach known as Papakolea; a natural and rugged masterpiece to behold! Another nearby tour option is Kula Kai Caverns in Ocean View…be prepared to learn about the volcanic rocks and the islands from experts who take you down into the lava tubes to explore the underground. Be sure to visit South Point, the southern most tip of the United States while you are here…the sunsets are quite a sight to behold; and if you are brave enough, you can jump off the cliffs into the gorgeous blue ocean! On your way down to Southpoint, you will find plentiful ...

Clean unit, Old Hawaii style complex, grounds are well kept with pretty flowers and palms,
coastal ocean view from this units ground floor lanai...pool has coastal view too. Feels private most of the time.Unit has 2 units above and one on side...if your neighbors are noisy at night you are going to hear them...needs some kind of sound deadening for the ceiling.

You have to go down a flight of steps to enter the condo which could be a challenge carrying luggage. The internet did not work until Julie came to the rescue with the updated Wi-Fi information. Thank you again Julie! The condo was small, but conveniently located and adequately equipped.

The good: great spot for bird watching, the complex is well maintained with pretty gardens, staff onsite (although not affiliated with this booking) are very friendly and helpful. The unfortunate: was given an incorrect code for the front door, was given incorrect information for the internet, sound transfer from the upper unit is significant, there is a large population of unhoused people living on the beach/ green space between this complex and the shoreline and we weren’t sure about overall security. Also, this unit is on the basement floor in a tropical area, so expect insects.

The condo itself the pool area and the property we enjoyed but this location is very isolated from everything, 15min drive to closest town. I was not aware that the condos here was literally the only thing around but the beach. Not bad for a short stay but be prepared with everything you need for a few days before you go.

We love staying in Punaluu every time we come back to visit family in Pahala since it’s a short 10 minute drive. The location is great if you’re looking to get away from the cities. Communication with the property manager was great and we were very pleased with this specific condo for its location and amenities. Definitely will look at staying here again in the future!

I loved how close to the turtle beach it is. Snorkeled with turtles every day. It is a small unit but well layed out and has everything you need to be comfortable. Space is a little tight for 4 but would be perfect for 2 and can stretch to 3. We enjoyed exploring South point and volcanoes np. I would highly recommend if you want a slow paced and quiet getaway.
