Wonderful place to stay. Very close to Hapuna beach, Mauna Kea beach, waikaloa, and across the street from a restaurant icy beach with frequent sea turtle visits.
Had a wonderful time at the cottage What a relaxing stay felt like we lived in Hawaii Holly was so nice and showed us everything we needed to know. Would definitely love to come back and stay longer.
We had a great experience. The location put close to all our favorite beaches.
I wanted to stay in a quiet place close to the ocean that felt like Hawaii, not a resort. We got wild pigs in the backyard, a gecko in our cottage who chirped each day, and wild turkeys sharing our walk to the ocean, which is right across the street. Sunsets were amazing and we finally saw the green flash, which we had been chasing for years. Cottage is just right for 2 people and we loved our daily morning coffee on the lanai surrounded by birdsong. One of the best beaches on the Big Island, Hapuna, is a very short distance away. The location, just off Hwy 19, gave us access to anywhere else we wanted to go and is barely 30 minutes from the airport. Beware of 2 very noisy roosters who woke us each morning!
Wonderful bungalow…Off the beaten path yet close enough to visit sites of the island. Enjoyed the wild life!
Lots of sea turtles at the beach 5 min walk. What fun
Super easy check in check out process. Location in Puako is a favorite spot for sure.
Little Puako Store has everything you’d need.
We’ll definitely be back.
The property is immaculately detailed from appliances to artwork to furnishings. Being tucked into its own little lot across from the shoreline provides the ability to enjoy the Big Island while minimizing exposure to the large tourist crowd.
It is perfectly sized for a couple! We thoroughly enjoyed barbecuing fresh fish daily on the grill and relaxed to stars at night. Wonderfully relaxing!!!
Great location if you want to be near the beach! Puako has several beach access points, each with their own charm for hanging by the water - a lot of Lava/coral so do not expect "swimming beaches". Head to the end of the road to the park for fabulous sunsets!
House was as it looked - newly remodeled and quite charming. As the photos indicate, the bedroom is completely open to the living room. Furniture is not the most comfortable and a dresser would be handy. The location does not allow for much of a breeze so the AC is very handy. House was outfitted nicely - kitchen utensils, beach chairs, etc. Also, plenty of soap, tp, etc for our 2-week stay.
Enjoy!
Beautiful home, steps from the water. Well-equipped kitchen, plenty of beach gear, gorgeous, peaceful front- and backyards. Perfect home and location for our stay in Puako. Photos are accurate!
