Kick off your shoes and step barefoot off your expansive covered lanai onto a sprawling oceanfront lawn, and soak in the postcard perfect views of the turquoise blue Pacific ocean, framed by swaying palm trees. Relax in the privacy of your Hawaiian “estate”, located at the highly desired end of Puako Beach Drive in one of the most unique beach communities on the Big Island. Puako is an iconic and vibrant seaside enclave that is both in very close proximity to the most acclaimed luxury resorts on the Big Island’s famed “gold coast”--while being nestled away from all the hustle and bustle. Time truly stands still in this dreamy slice of upscale vintage Hawaii charm, offering the opportunity to explore the extensive Puako reef and tidepools just footsteps from your door, swim in some of the best ocean swimming holes of all of the Big Island, or wander along the shoreline trails that easily connect you to Mauna Lani resort, or the nearby Paniau shoreline, a popular and much sought-after surf and dive spot. Puako is also a short and easy drive to Waimea—to experience the very best of cooler climate “upcountry life”, complete with a variety of shopping, dining and popular farmer’s market offerings. Comfortable and well-appointed, the home is breezy, airy, full of natural light, an open floor plan that encourages interaction, and an oceanfront lanai that can be accessed from all communal living spaces and the master bedroom. Directly opposite of the lanai and through large sliding glass pocket doors that let you “bring the outside in”, one is afforded a view of the courtyard pool, and a lush tropically landscaped environment allows you to simultaneously enjoy the sights and scenery of the ocean, while still being in the midst of all activity within the household. The modern kitchen is spacious and stocked with thoughtful touches that make meal preparation and entertaining a chef’s dream. There are multiple dining area options and seating arrangements throughout the home to create truly special gathering spots for meals, table games, or just general socialization. The open concept living room and dining room feature finely crafted furniture made from exotic tropical woods, a wet bar and wine refrigerator, along with a variety of media options. Bedrooms feature en suite bathrooms and are situated away from central activity areas for maximum privacy and quietude. Two outdoor showers feature copper rain heads and lava rock walls —a distinctly Hawaiian and Big Island feature. The home is an art lover's delight, showcasing the works of esteemed Hawaiian artists and artisans, an interesting assortment of artifacts, and a wide array of culturally topical books for your reading pleasure. Escape with a favorite book of your own, or simply enjoy the joys of playing in the pool or exploring the vast Puako reef system and tide pools. Take advantage of this opportunity to share the owner's personal retreat, where care has been taken to enhance your comfort and anticipate your every need. The perfect tropical indoor/outdoor living environment, that's great for sharing with family, favorite friends, or your very special someone. Stays over a week require an additional interim cleaning and approval from the homeowner. Hawaii County Restrictions: 1\.

It was our first time visiting the Big Island. My husband and I loved being away from the major tourist areas like Kona, especially after coming from Maui. The house layout worked great for our family of 5\. Our 13yo enjoyed staying in the room detached from the house. Everyone used the 2 outdoor showers bc you have total privacy, even though there are neighbors on each side and people that have access to the rocks/beach behind the house. Even though we visited the bigger/popular beaches, the kids enjoyed the beaches/tide pools right behind the house where we saw many turtles and the waves weren’t too strong to snorkel. The house is stocked with beach toys, bodyboards, chairs, umbrellas, coolers to borrow. It was great to be able to use washer/dryers. We have stayed at some incredible beach resorts and rentals, but the view and access to the ocean does not compare! Being able to fall asleep and wake up listening to the ocean in your backyard is unbelievable. We didn’t see any whales from the backyard, but we were told you can. If it was easier to come from Texas, we would love to return to this island and specifically this rental annually. For now we just hope to come back one day! ##### Matthew M.

Holly and Greg took perfect care of us. Don’t tell others as this is a true gem and we’d like to return! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brad B.

It’s just too bad they don’t allow kids under 12\. Our daughter would have liked to have joined us with her young son but it was not permitted. ##### Brad B.

The layout of the home was perfect, as everyone had privacy and their own bathroom. The front lawn and lanai has a spectacular view for watching sunsets and barbecuing and for eating outside for every meal and the kitchen was spacious and well equipped. We hope to return on an annual basis!!! Thank you for sharing your home with us! ##### Jami G.

This beautiful, peaceful home by the sea was the perfect place for our family's winter break vacation (2 adults and 2 teens). It's in a great location to explore the island's many sights, yet also a destination in itself. While we thoroughly enjoyed our snorkeling, beach and sight seeing excursions, we equally LOVED our time at the house, gazing at the sunset over the ocean each evening, morning walks along the beach trail that starts only steps away and meals at home. Our hosts were gracious, made sure all details were well attended to and provided all information we requested about the area. Overall, an absolutely PERFECT trip! We would love to return again!! ##### Alexis R. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jamie L., Manhattan Beach Jan 6, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### comfortable home, amazing spot My family and I really enjoyed the home. The owner was very responsive, the check in process was easy and we appreciated all of the extra info about fun things to do around the island when we checked in. The location right on the water made for some magical sunset views and our kids went out to the tidepools beyond the yard every day to see what was there. The tide pools did not disappoint - we frequently saw sea turtles, eels and whales off the coast. We would definitely come back. The unit did not have air conditioning but this was not a problem for us because there are a ton of windows that let in great breezes day and night and listening to the sound of the ocean was amazing. ##### Jamie L.
