About this property

Paradise on Puna

Enjoy this open plan & spacious house nestled amongst other houses but still a private oasis. Plenty of space for more than one family to stay without feeling cramped. The kitchen has all you need for your stay, complete with everything you need to cook. There is a Nespresso coffee machine, with some pods provided. Tea bags are also provided. The house has a central heat pump system that heats/cools when needed. The ensuite has underfloor heating for the cooler months, there is a separate TV lounge with Netflix,Disney+, Neon,and Freeview TV. There is ample space in the garage for bikes to be stored. If boating is your thing there is parking down the side of the house behind secure locked gates, there's enough parking for both boat & vehicle with access to the washing line to dry gear right there.
We love the privacy & sun trap the backyard is, fully fenced for young children to keep them safe.
Grocery store,sushi, cafes, restaurants all within easy walk or drive distance. The Drop Zone which has a restaurant, cafe, Lil Lunas Gelato ten pin bowling ally, trampoline park & ninja course for the more adventurous. Or mini golf.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.
