Private Puako Home - NO shared walls! Full Mauna Kea Views & Steps to the Beach

Love Ohana Hale!

Location, location, location. Great view of Mauna Kea from private back patio, marvelous snorkel access 5 minutes walk down the road. Very well equipped kitchen, beautiful local art on the walls, comfirtable seating i side and out.

Great location, highly recommended. Very comfortable house for three of us. All you need is in place. The best beaches are 10 min to drive, snorkeling around the corner. Shopping and eating very close. We are very lucky having spent a week in December here. Very nice and efficient communication with the host, thank you so much, Sandi. We will come again, for sure!

What a glorious, peaceful spot. We were able to get easily to 5 beaches with waves gentle enough for little kids, plus afternoon trips to the tide pools and turtles and sunsets. The warm wind, birds, outdoor shower, volcano view - this was an epic trip for our family.

Exceptional home! It had everything we needed for a comfortable stay… from games to beach chairs. I loved the outdoor shower, the teens love the tree swing, and my husband loved the air conditioned rooms. All in all, we would definitely stay again. Thank you so much!

House was very comfortable and in a quiet neighborhood in a great location if you like beaches. The evening winds were awesome. We saw pigs amd turkeys wandering though the private backyard. Dozens of turtles.at.the beach across.the road. Great somen salads at the general store down the road. 0 complaints, only great memoriesOwners were great with communication. Would stay again.

My family and I had a wonderful stay. We have stayed in this home before and hope to come back again. Sitting on the back porch area having Kona coffee while the sun rises over Mauna Kea is amazing. Home has everything you need.

The house is perfect: lovingly furnished, with charm and character, and plenty of space for four people. We were four women seeking peace and relaxation, and that's exactly what we found here. A wonderful garden with a view of Mauna Kea and the sunrise, and a one-minute walk to the ocean for our first coffee. And in the evening, we were able to enjoy the sunset. We enjoyed breakfast on the terrace. Everything we needed in terms of furnishings and kitchen equipment was there, and even more.The contact with the landlord was exceptionally friendly, quick, and reliable.The stay truly exceeded our expectations, and we would come back anytime.Mahalo

We always go to the Big Island and we always stay in Puako. We’ve rented several VRBO’s over the years, including an oceanfront home. Ohana Hale is our favorite of them all. I LOVED the backyard—very private, stunning sunrises, and lots of birds. Our older adult daughter liked the outdoor shower and tree swing. Our younger adult daughter liked access to good turtle watching and tide pooling just across the street. The kitchen is well stocked for cooking and we appreciated the variety of spices and having plenty of storage containers for leftovers. The area is quiet at night, the beds are comfy, and we slept well. The house is extremely clean with no creepy crawlies. I found the owners to be friendly and responsive. Ohana Hale will see us again!

Always like Ohana Hale

We have stayed at Ohana Hale several times for extended stays and will continue to return. Puako is a lovely residential community and ideal for watching sunsets, snorkeling, and is in close proximity to some of the best beaches on the island. The home is nicely appointed, with comfortable beds, a well-stocked kitchen, and a nice floor plan. The yard is a great place to relax, with an awesome view of Mauna Kea. The hosts are helpful and responsive and a joy to work with.

My family and I had a wonderful stay. The views of Mauna Kea were breath taking particularly at sunrise. The home had everthying we needed and was perfect for a family of 4. It is also just across the street ocean access.

We loved our stay! The place is spacious, quiet, accessible to the beach with an incredible view of Mauna Lea. We will for sure return.

The location was perfect for our family holiday - close to beaches and outdoor activities and tucked away from hustle and bustle of resort-based communities. The swing in the backyard was a hit with the kids and the view beyond it was amazing. This is a quiet, relaxing and friendly spot steps away from the beach (and turtles), tucked off the road with all the conveniences of being home.

The Ohana Hale is wonderful! A great place to relax and enjoy nature (lots of birds!) House is very private and peaceful, beautifully decorated, great views from the back lanai. Good communication with clear instructions on how to get there, get in, what to do, etc. The house was very clean, well equipped kitchen and comfy couches. There are 2 bedrooms but we only used the master suite. The bed was very comfortable, great closet and bathroom area. Having a washer and dryer was a plus. House has great AC and ceiling fans. Beach access is a short walk across the road. There are also great travel books available and a very informative binder with restaurant suggestions. Would definitely love to stay here again and can see why so people have done so!!

We loved our stay at Sandi and Ken’s place in Puako. It was a quiet beautiful neighborhood with the ocean (and sea turtles) just right across the street and Mauna Kea stargazing in the backyard. Easy to get to get to all the best beaches. Stocked with all the kitchen essentials and beach essentials. We loved our stay and can’t wait to come back!

The first morning waking up just before sunrise in this beautiful setting made me cry happy tears. The view to the northeast of Mauna Loa is truly wonderful. Beyond the amazing and relaxing surrounding open space and beach, the home is well stocked and cared for. The bed in the primary room is also exceptionally comfortable!

I almost hate to review this house because we'd like to keep it a secret:) It was in a fabulous and quiet location with access to a little sunset watching beach with lots of turtles to view from a safe distance. The yard and swing were highlights and we loved every minute of our trip!!

It was so pleasant and comfortable to stay in this home. I would recommend to anyone who wants a pleasant relaxing , quiet time

Beautiful, well maintained, SO well stocked and SUPER clean! Thank you for sharing your slice of paradise with us. Our 11 year old daughter and my 85 year old mom both equally enjoyed it ! We had a fabulous stay!!

We loved our stay in Puako. We had two families. We each had a separate end of bedroom and bathroom with the living room and kitchen in the middle. The views out the back was beautiful. It worked out great. Mahalo
