Absolutely stunning!
Our stay at this oceanfront house was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the breathtaking views of the crystal-clear ocean right from the lenai. The house itself is beautifully designed—spacious, clean, and equipped with every amenity you could possibly need. The open-concept living area flows seamlessly to the outdoor space, creating several cozy places to watch the amazing sunsets, enjoy the gentle sea breezes, and listen to the sounds of the ocean waves.
The location is perfect for a tranquil getaway, yet still close enough to explore the local shops and restaurants. We used it as a home-base to explore the incredible beauty of the island. We were delighted to find historical sites nearby to visit, natural parks to explore and several beaches that were perfect for relaxing and soaking up the sun.
Brooke, the host, was incredibly accommodating and provided thoughtful touches throughout the property, making us feel right at home. If we had any questions, she was easy to contact and quick to respond. If you’re looking for a luxurious, serene escape with unparalleled ocean views, and a relaxing, homey feel, this is the place to be.
We’re already planning our next visit!
Highly recommend! 🌴🌊✨

We had a wonderful time at this beautiful home! The outdoor space is truly spectacular with a large lawn, lap pool, and access to the ocean. Our multigenerational family all enjoyed watching the three turtles that live in front of the house and my husband and I loved the amazing snorkeling (just keep going out until you see the underwater caves). It was a good base for visiting the great nearby beaches. The house is well stocked and we honestly enjoyed eating at the house versus venturing out for dinner (although we did that too). Our favorite beaches were Beach 69 and the Mana Lani Beach.

I needed to find a place for my workers to stay while they were working on a project in Hawaii. Which is why I am so thankful I came across this property because it was absolutely perfect for our needs. Not only was it spacious enough for the entire crew to stay but it was minutes away from the job-site. It was also very clean and had tidy. The owners are also very nice. Keeping communication with them was never an issue. Lastly according to the guys the best part about the property was how close it was to the ocean. I think they took a swim every day after work. Therefore, I wholeheartedly recommend this property if you're traveling with a larger group of people. You won't regret it.

Our multigenerational group of eight had a magical Big Island stay at this house. The setting can’t be beat, and the layout of the house and it’s amenities take full advantage. Communication with the owners was excellent. Our only complaint is that we didn’t plan to stay longer.

Puoko Beach was the perfect location for our family of 8 -- 5 adults and 3 kids. The house had ample room for indoor/outdoor living. We wpoke up with the sun, walked down to the water, and watching the tide come in. We saw people snorkeling and even scuba diving in these waters, but we chose to only wade in the tide pools because of rough waters. It was still amazing -- turtles came in the afternoon further down the beach. In the evening, we watched the sun from the lanai as it lit up the sky.
The kids enjoyed the pool, which was chilly in December as expected, but the adults took full advantage of the hot tub.
The rooms upstairs picked up nice breezes so that a/c wasn't missed. The house is built to harness those winds. As a big city resident, I enjoyed listening to the sounds of the ocean at bedtime rather than sirens and car alarms.
The garage featured a broad variety of beach gear - boogie boards, snorkel masks and breathing tubes, coolers, chairs, sand toys and a beach umbrella. These were perfect for Beach 67 located nearby. Even during the peak Christmas rush, the beach was never particularly crowded.
Being 30+ minutes from Kona is a feature of this house as it avoids some of the crushing crowds. However, we arranged two tours that launched immediately down the street.LightSUP paddleboarding at night was amazing and the Adventure X boat tour for snorkeling and whale watching was great. We were able to walk to both of them.
We can't wait to return!

We wanted a quite place on the beach to get married. It was just us, our minister, photographer, and personnel chef. Note: this is NOT a place for a larger wedding group or loud festivities.
Brooke was awesome in her assistance and even recommended some of the services that we used. She is very gracious and responded immediately to our inquiries.
This is a great location if you are going to split your time between the North Shore and Kailua. There is a food market within ten minutes and plenty of various dining venues at the neighboring resorts.
The kitchen is very well equipped. There are plenty of beach toys and towels. Amazing sunsets!

The view from the back deck is breathtaking! We had a beautiful week at the Puako beach house. We spent many nights having dinner/ordering in to eat on the deck. The house was great for our group of 7. Brooke was communicative throughout. Would highly recommend.

We couldn't of asked for more-this place met and went beyond all our expectations!
The owner Brooke was very responsive to any questions and was full of information of the surrounding area! We have been doing family vacations in different states for the last 10 years and this was the most well stocked house we have ever been in! From start up paper towels to a big supply of beach towels and everything you need for the beach. I can't even begin to have the words for the beautiful sunsets every evening!
We were a family of 6 adults and 1 child flying in from Louisiana and there was plenty of room to spread out. This was a 5 star vacation and we hope to do it again!

I loved this stay. One of the nicest places I've ever stayed. Perfect for anyone that likes a quiet spot, the classic indoor/outdoor Hawaii style living, and the life aquatic.
Place is as described. Host is easy to communicate with.
There's no beach, but the snorkeling was world class. Turtles everywhere. Really fun underwater formations where the shallow lava bottom drops off to a deep area about 300 yards out. Even saw a huge manta ray.
