Shady property in a quiet area of Puako and close to everything. Public shoreline beach access nearby and an easy walk away. The General Store is close by and has hearty sandwiches for lunch. It was a great week!

This modest cottage on a Puako drive was a perfect retreat for me. I spent the holidays with my daughters in-laws who own a home nearby , and I had a cozy place to have some privacy during all the fun.

Wonderful place to stay. Very close to Hapuna beach, Mauna Kea beach, waikaloa, and across the street from a restaurant icy beach with frequent sea turtle visits.
