We had an amazing stay at the Puako house! It was spotlessly clean, exactly as listed, and felt like a true home away from home. There were no surprises — everything was as described or better.The house was fully stocked with dishes, cookware, towels, bedding, and even beach toys for our kids. The shady lawn was great for relaxing, and we loved being right on the beach. The snorkeling out front was incredible — sea turtles and vibrant fish just steps from the door.The house has plenty of fans throughout, which helped keep things comfortable. That said, the only downside is that it does get hot during the day, especially in the warmer months, so be prepared for warm afternoons and evenings indoors. Thankfully for all the fans!Still, the overall experience was fantastic. The hosts were wonderful, responsive, and thoughtful. We’ve stayed at several homes during our trip, and this was by far a favorite.If you’re looking for a peaceful, clean, well-equipped oceanfront home, this is it. We hope to return again soon!

A beach house from another era, right on the beach. cool snorkeling (though sometimes lower visibility) right outside the house—almost ran into a big beautiful turtle as we came over somelava—also very close to guided trips that can take you to very beautiful and more clear spots off shore (we enjoyed our Liquid Hawaii trip). Property management firm that handles the rental is professional and helpful and gracious. The church next door is low key—even on Sunday—and the beach is too. You’ll benefit from some water shoes here and other places in this area because of lava rocks.

It is walking distance to the little general store. It has a dry well equipped kitchen. The furniture and at least the master bed are Rey comfortable. Since you are on the edge of a peninsula the surf is surrounded by sound all day. Driving less than 10 minutes to Hapuna Beach.

We all loved this location, the home, the kitchen, the sleeping arrangements and comfort. The two decks were well used by our small but very close group. The middle deck was fantastic for evening gathering, while the back deck was great for fresh breezes and easy access to the water.

Great stay at this relaxing Puako beach house. This was the perfect getaway for a relaxing beach vacation for my small family. My husband and I stayed six nights with our ten-year old daughter. We could have easily fit another couple and child in the space. The house is older but very well-maintained and clean, providing a very authentic Hawaiian experience. Don't let the age of the house hold you back at all - the A-frame style is precious and the cool breeze in the evening is a perfect sunset setting with literally a private beach right in front of you. The house is also very well-stocked which I don't think any of the other reviews stated. Also, there was an early review of the bushes not providing privacy - I can guarantee you this is no longer a problem and the yard is carefully maintained and watered. We will definitely rent this house again on a future visit to the Big Island.
