About this property

Ocean Front Estate, *Private Pool*, Exclusive Beach Frontage

  • Live the dream at this oceanfront gem, with wide beach frontage and an inviting courtyard pool that beckons you to experience the ultimate Hawaiian retreat in style. 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.

Hands down one of the best properties we have stayed at. Very open concept with the doors and windows to enjoy that Hawaiian breeze. Well stocked house in the kitchen and beach supplies in the garage. Loved the little path down to the ocean front. We loved walking out on the lava rock checking out the tide pools and we see multiple turtles, usually at night. Great quiet location close to the end of the road.

We loved our stay! Falling asleep and waking up to the sound of the waves was magical. The backyard felt like a mini sea world—we saw turtles daily, exotic fish, eels, and even a puffer fish during high tide. The house was comfortable and well appointed. The host was welcoming and responsive .

This Hawaii beach house is amazing! My wife two teenage daughters and mother in law were very comfortable and happy for the six nights we stayed. Post trip I can honestly say I’m so glad we chose to stay here! It was nice to embrace and enjoy the open air living lifestyle that Hawaii and this house has to offer. The back and front doors open wide to allow the wonderful ocean breeze to move through the house. The casita allowed my mother in law to have a/c if she chose to. My wife kids and I slept very comfortable with the windows open at night and did not feel hot at any point. Direct access to the ocean and tide pools allowed us to explore and enjoy the ocean our entire trip. I walked down the beach a just a bit to the park and experienced some awesome snorkeling. The reef at the house is where the dive boats anchored for diving and locals were scuba diving at the park. The park is just two houses down. At the house we were able to see turtles on the rocks and in the water every day. Everyone really enjoyed the turtles! The location on the island is good because it was sunny and nice the entire stay unlike Kona. The outdoor showers, pool, lanai, beach access, fully stocked kitchen, privacy, big backyard, comfortable beds and landscaping were all amazing! You can’t go wrong with this one! Thank you for the wonderful stay!

Beautiful Stay!

Our family of four stayed at this home for a week. Everything about the property is lovely! Amazing location, terrific kitchen to cook, great area to lounge. Puako is a delightful neighborhood. This home is clean and spacious and the hosts are easy to get a hold of if you need them. We did not want to leave and we would definitely return.

Paradise in Puako

Our family spent an incredible week at this beautiful property. Very private and beautiful setting. Owners were very communicative and helpful before we arrived. The kitchen was well appointed, and we took advantage of many of the recommendations left for us in the "Guest Book". This is a special place, and we felt the love and care of the family who shared with us. We hope to be back soon.

Great stay

My family and I (husband and 3 kids) had a wonderful stay. It was so peaceful and beautiful. We did lots while doing nothing. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. There is a small general store in the same road, which was convenient. There are multiple public access points to the ocean, if you want sand. We got to see sea turtles multiple times right off the back yard, which was a dream come true. Definitely recommend staying here.

perfect puako

we had a lovely stay here on puako. we are avid snorkelers and enjoyed the close proximity (two houses away) to easy water access. the home is beautifully appointed with an especially well stocked kitchen—you will not want for any cooking utensils. the layout provided our family of five with plenty of space to come together or have quiet space to yourself. if you are coming in the summer months, be prepared for the hot weather. holly, the property manager was close by and readily available for any needs we might have. all in all, a lovely stay. thank you.

How Soon Can We Return?

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!

Stunning property! We loved checking out the tide pools and getting daily visits from the sea turtles. The property is well equipped with everything you'll need, and close to grocery stores and other resort restaurants and shopping. We took day trips to Hilo to check out waterfalls, and even saw the eruption at Kilauea! Local beaches are gorgeous and great for snorkeling and there are so many things to do in the area. The house itself was beautiful and we loved sunrise and sunset each day overlooking the ocean. The scent of plumeria around the garden- style pool was absolute paradise. Book it! You won't regret it!

Magical place! The first morning, my daughter and son-in-law counted 14 sea turtles on the reef in front of the house and nearby. After that, they went out with coffee every morning to enjoy the reef and watch for turtles. The property manager was prompt and helpful, the house beautifully situated and well-appointed, and the location could not be beat. Great snorkeling at nearby beaches; and we walked to a resort where they were happy to have us on the beach. We appreciated how well-equipped the house is, including with snorkel gear. We would definitely rent here again.
