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.

this house was our home base for 6 nights as we explored the east coast of the big island. it was comfy with plenty of space, and the deck was amazing for watching sunrises.

6 / 10Average·Dec 2024
First of, the picture listed of the house is NOT the actual house. Positives: Location was nice with good distance/access. View from the house was beautiful. Spacious for 7 people. It was nice to have washer/dryer. The Hawaii Life folks were responsive.Negatives: completely misled with the pictures of where the house is relative to the area. Bit dirty; lots of dust/dirt on kitchen counters. No cell signal; make sure you have call over wifi active, otherwise make sure to have the email for Hawaii Life rep to communicate. House needs a bit of updating; no instructions on some of the outdated features (incl shower) so it took effort to figure out how to operate. Wouldve been nice to have more toiletries; 2 tiny bars of soap for 7 people is ridiculous. Biggest issues was the moldy smell of the entire house (incl bed).. Would not stay at this location again
