  • The cottage exceeded our expectations by far. We loved our time there and wished we could have stayed much longer. A very special spot with wonderful beaches close by.

  • The Maluhia Cottage was great. The house was perfect for grilling and chilling. We used the house for our scuba vacation, we did some great dives up and down Puako Road. A few days we got in our gear and walked across the street and did a 170 ft dive, unbelievable. I loved the time there in the nice town of Puako.

  • I lived in Puako for a few years and knew that this location was perfect for my husband's first trip to Hawaii. The cottage was perfect for us. It was even more beautiful than we had anticipated. The house was spacious and well appointed with everything we needed and then some. They really did think of everything. The beach access across the street had the best tide pools and sea turtle viewing in Puako. Every morning we would take our coffee and walk over to check out the sea life in the pools and the turtles. The views of Mauna Kea were breathtaking. There's nothing like watching a full moon rise over Mauna Kea. It's amazing. My husband is now as smitten with Puako as I have been all of these years. We will be back.

  • We have just returned from the Big Island and staying at Tranquility Cottage, for a wonderful 10 day visit. The stunning views, comfortable bed and wonderful amenities make this vacation property a restful and complete package. Everything worked wonderfully, even the knives are sharp. The ocean is just across the street and we loved the ease of access to everything. Thanks to all who made our stay in Puako so wonderful

  • We just got back from the Island and had never been to Puako on our previous trips. What a great street and special home! We had a great walk down the beach to the Fairmont Orchid Hotel for lunch one day. At other times we sat in the living room reading and looking out at the clear view of the Mountains. The only sounds we heard were the sounds of Hawaiian birds chirping. The house is perfectly located, and we loved our stay!

  • We loved the sunrise over Mauna Kea, waking up with the sun every morning is how it should always be. Great location, quiet and close to the beach access. We enjoyed our stay and enjoyed the house too.

  • I have been lucky enough to have stayed at many places in Puako, and Maluhia Cottage holds a special place in my heart. It's name is very fitting, for I have found much serenity here. It's great to be steps away from the beach, and to also have the privacy and majestic view of Mauna Kea.
