About this property

Holo Holo Hale...Quite, secure country home minutes to adventures!

Holo Holo Hale (home for people on the go) is a quaint plantation home built in the 50’s; it has belonged in our Ohana (family) ever since. This home sits amongst a bounty of flora and fauna encountered by the sounds of birds, roosters, and the peace of Hawaii plantation country. You can get a peek of the dark blue ocean from the living room window, and the trickling sound of the Aleamail stream . Located in Papaikou on the Big Island of Hawaii (Hawaii Island).
While enjoying the beautiful sunrise, refreshing rainy days, warmth of the tradewinds, and preparing for a new day, why not make one of your adventures 3.4 miles (7mins) down the road to Honoli’I for sea glass or surfing. Hawaii Belt Rd is a minute away for coastal travel to Hilo, Hamakua Coast, or to cruise the island; there’s a faint sound of cars going by.
Holo Holo Hale has two spacious and comfortable Upstairs queen bedrooms, a bath, a large kitchen, an eating bar, many windows, and high ceilings with fans in each room. Large blended open space living room and kitchen. The bath includes double vanities and shower. Accommodates 5 persons (twin airbed for the fifth person). Downstairs one bedroom with a queen bed. Laundry, washer, and dryer downstairs. Expect rooster calls in the morning!
After a busy day of traveling and adventure come back to Holo Holo Hale and park in the covered two-car garage, and up 15 steps into Holo Holo’s front door. Regenerate here, read, write, sit back and relax…this is the vibe here at Holo Holo!
Holo Holo Hale is completely fenced, with a large lush maintained yard. Many plants, grafted trees, flowers, and frequent visitors of chickens and roosters.

Frequent morning and afternoon rain showers, and winter gets a little chillier so grab a throw and cuddle up on the couch.
Holo Holo Hale is a few miles to local Hilo, or Kaumana to Saddle road (or Daniel K. Inouye Highway) to Waimea/Kamuela, Kona. This island is the best place to experience many different climates in a day.

Home away from home
This is our second year renting out this house. It was a perfect fit the first year so we wanted to come back again this year. The house is spacious with the upstairs and downstairs rooms, bathrooms. The garage was big enough to fit two vehicles which was perfect for the rainy days. The house is fully stocked with all the amenities. We would stay here again if needed and would highly recommend families to do so too. This was truly our home away from home. Mahalo!

Family vacation
The property was beauitful and so clean. We had everything we needed and more. The birds and the frogs welcomed us and sang beautiful peaceful song throughout the day and evening. Having the windows open at night and the fans going kept the house very cool. It was close to Hilo and a short drive to a few waterfalls and hikes. We cant wait to come for anothet visit and stay here again.

5 Stars!
My family & I have enjoyed staying at this house. It was in a great location close to Hilo where we spend most of our time. The house was very spacious for my family and I to fit. The house was stocked with all linens, towels, kitchen utensils as well as the simple things we always need like ziplocks and foil. This was a house we felt very comfortable and safe in. It felt like we was staying over at grandmaʻs house. Mahalo again for letting me and my family stay. We will be back!

Super Nice and Quiet Country House
We really enjoyed staying the week in this lovely house and semi-rural neighborhood! The owners were extremely thoughtful, kind and generous in providing everything we needed and more - made us feel right at home from the minute we got there. Great communication before and during our visit. Very clean, new appliances, bedding and towels. We love the country feel of Papaikou with the frogs at night and chickens in the morning, the birds and the rain. Ten minute drive into Hilo for restaurants, local beaches, farmers market and entertainment. Great location - about an hour to Honukaa and to Volcanoes National Park. Thanks very much for giving us a taste of real Hawaiian hospitality!
