About this house rental
Welcome to Hamakua Pukana La Hale – A Brand New Vacation Rental!
This beautifully decorated 3 bedroom, 2 bath home is located on a private acre parcel along the Hamakua Coast just north of Hilo! This brand new vacation rental home with ocean views sleeps 7, max 4 adults and 3 kiddos. The landscaping and grounds are spectacular, featuring a 6 foot tall Buddha and meditation space as well. The French doors open to allow those trade winds to fill the home. No air conditioning needed here! December – March is whale season, and you’ll have a front row seat for all the whale activity that you can possibly take in.
The kitchen is large and easy to work in and of course has all the amenities that you will need to cook up those scrumptious island meals. The master bedroom with its en-suite bath, king size bed, private ocean view, screened in lanai is the perfect escape after a long day of sightseeing. The first guest room has a queen bed, and the 2nd guest room has a bunk bed for the younger kids with a full on bottom and twin on top.
From this convenient location, explore old Hilo town with its great farmers market and historical museums and must see stops. Also discover beautiful Akaka Water Falls Park and the Old Mamalahoa Highway, the original highway built back in the 20’s that took you from Hilo town to the beautiful horse country of Waimea.
From the house, you’re only a short 20 minute drive to the south to Hilo (many beach parks and snorkel spots here), 20 minutes to the north to Honokaa town, Waipio Valley and from there just another few minutes to the beautiful white sandy Hapuna Beach.

Reviewer Comments:
We were overall very happy with this home. It was comfortable, clean, had sufficient amount of amenities, and the TV was SMART - so a few latest technologies were included. The home was a bit out of the way for us, as the reason for the trip being our attendance at the Merrie Monarch festival in Hilo, the description and directions to the home were very accurate. My only comment, which is strictly personal, is I would choose other accent decor...the tikiʻs, tribal masks, and little coconut figurines kind of weirded us out from a local perspective. Again, only personal opinion. Otherwise, Hamakua Pukana La Hale was a lovely vacation getaway! Mahalo!

We rented this lovely house for a family wedding. Property was clean, perfect for family dinners and easy to childproof. Views of our beautiful Hamakua are stunning from this location. Was all around just perfect for our grown children and grandchildren. Mahalo nui loa

Reviewer Comments:
The view from the lanai and living room is awesome. We could easily see over the first tier of homes. Quite close to the highway, but noise wasn't a problem. The beds were comfortable, kitchen well-appointed, plenty of towels and beach accessories. The furniture is nice (just wish there was more of it in the living room). Very close to Akaka Falls, but about 20 minutes from Hilo. The mosquitoes are horrible--come prepared with deet! Also, not enough laundry or dish soap is provided (rather silly, considering what renters are paying). The single story layout was perfect for my 85-yr-old mother, although she did note a lack of grab bars. I do recommend this home, but you'll enjoy it more if you're prepared!

The location of this rental is surrounded by greenery. It's on the rainy outside of the island so do expect some rain. Everything you need is provided. The beds are comfortable and the linens are clean. The washer and dryer was very convenient. The host was quick to respond when we tried to contact them. Grab groceries before you head here it's about 35 minute drive from Hilo. The drive to Kona is beautiful. If you plan to do activities I would book a couple in one day, due to the driving time. Beach supplies were also included which was very nice.

Great house. A little warm during the day, but we were out of the house most of the time - cools off nice in the evening.
House is a little far from many of the tourist
activities (this is both good and bad - really quite area). 35-40 mins to Hilo, a little over an hour to Hapuna Beach.
Nice kitchen set up - used everyday for breakfast and some dinners.
We really enjoyed our stay.

We had an enjoyable time here. The location was easy to get to and a centralized location. We had some problems with the internet, but after unplugging and replugging the problem was solved. Our only complaint is that we were unable to get cell phone service while at the house. This is due to the location of the property, not the owner's fault.

It was amazing to have a comfortable home while out exploring the island! We are from Georgia and had a brief panic when we realized there was no air conditioning, but were impressed with how pleasant the house quickly becomes with open windows. It was a great stay - I wouldn’t change a thing!

Reviewer Comments:
This home was incredible. The view was outstanding, it was like something you dream of. Highly recommend.
Pros-
The view!
Very well maintained
Comfortable furniture
Lots of beach accessories
Beautiful screened in lanai for when the mosquitoes get too hungry
Amazing yard
Great for family
Secluded and quiet
Great property manager and attentive
Cons
No grocery store close by - unless you go to the country market which does not open until 10.
A bit hard to find, especially in the dark
Water pressure was iffy. Had to call twice for it to be fixed, but they have a very nice guy on staff to fix the problem.
No dishwasher, which was a problem during the low water pressure times.
No wine glasses - (issue is now fixed as we bought some from target and left behind! :) )
Coffee pot could be upgraded
Overall the cons we felt were very minimal things (except the water but hopefully they fix the problem!) It is a little far from everything so expect to drive- the flipside of that is that it is a beautiful drive! Our favorite close-by spot was Laupahoehoe beach park (10 min) and Waimea Town (30min). Our suggestion is to get groceries before arriving to the house if you can, each big store is about 30-40 min drive. Be sure to pack a sweater because you’ll want to watch the sunrise from the lanai but it can feel a little chilly!
