Over deze accommodatie
Ons appartement heeft 62 FIVE Star beoordelingen! Sunny Puako, Hawaii, Ocean View & AC
Aloha! Dit is je zeldzame kans om een goed ingericht, schoon en fris condominium te ervaren in het schilderachtige kleine Hawaiiaanse dorp Puako! We hebben nieuwe keukenapparatuur en de slaapkamer heeft een eigen Lanai en uitzicht op de oceaan. Deze master kamer is uitgerust met een California King Size bed om uw slaaptijd geweldig te maken! En wist je dat onze plaats ook een zwembad heeft ?!
We zijn eigenaar van ons appartement sinds 2005 voordat Homeaway en VRBO fuseerden. Onze 62 vijfsterrenbeoordelingen van onze gasten zijn het resultaat van jarenlange feedback (hoewel er nu maar enkele op deze website te zien zijn). Wij zijn een GOEDGEKEURDE STVR # 19-359590 volgens alle vereisten van de Hawaii State Law Lodging en onze Hawaii Tax Lodging ID # T-006-562-6112. STVR staat voor Short Term Vacation Rental.
Dit appartement is een plek om te ontspannen en te genieten van de zonnige pracht van Puako, de parel van het Grote Eiland, waar geluiden van de branding of terugkerende walvissen in de baai u kunnen slapen 's nachts slapen. De hoofdslaapkamer heeft zijn eigen A / C, en de woonkamer heeft zijn eigen grotere A / C-eenheid met een hoge output die het appartement koelt.
De tweede slaapkamer is ingesteld met een Queen size bed van evenveel comfort als de meester en is gelegen tegen de achterkant van het appartement met een eigen toegangsdeur. Volle kasten en een tropisch decor creëren een thema van ontspanning.
Er zijn tal van extra voorzieningen die de echte sfeer van Aloha creëren in het condominium Puako # 303. Deze eigenaar heeft veel gereisd en heeft in deze accommodatie de 'kleine dingen' gebracht die onze tijd weg van huis ofwel een 'oké' of een uitstekende ervaring maken!
Onverwachte reisartikelen zoals zeep, shampoo, zonnebrandcrème, pleisters, koffie, thee, strandmatten, kookboeken over het eiland of 'Big Island Revealed', boeken zijn vaak beschikbaar voor uw plezier. High speed internet toegang, flatscreen kabel-tv en buiten dineren op de Lanai voor adembenemende zonsondergangen zijn allemaal opties die deze accommodatie onderscheiden van anderen.
De Paniolo-kamer fungeert ook als kantoor wanneer de queensize slaapbank niet wordt gebruikt. Geef jezelf een paar privémomenten aan de ruime balie om een ansichtkaart te schrijven 'Ik wou dat je hier was' of 'je moet me komen vergezellen!' aan vrienden of geliefden ...
Gastvrijheid in overvloed in dit huis, want het heeft schone en mooie apparaten, keukengerei en beddengoed, waaronder zes zachte strandhanddoeken en ook een selectie van strandboeken voor uw reis naar het strand. Dit appartement heeft een uitzicht op de branding en de kustlijn die gemakkelijker beschikbaar is dan anderen in het complex vanwege de ligging op de derde verdieping.
Toegang tot eten en diensten zijn dichtbij en zonder de files van Kona! Vijfsterren resorts en hotels van wereldklasse hebben voor deze regio gekozen omdat het de nabijheid van enkele van de mooiste stranden ter wereld (Hapuna & Wailea) biedt.
Activiteiten op het eiland kunnen ook een schat aan dingen omvatten; golfen, paardrijden, duiken, surfen, vogels kijken, botanische tuinen bezoeken, vissen, snorkelen, boetiekjes, kuuroorden, zeilen, wandelen in weelderige tropische bossen, helikoptervluchten, lekker eten, spirituele retraites of strandjutten. Je kunt er ook voor kiezen om de rotstekeningen in het Archeologisch reservaat te verkennen, de vulkaan per helikopter te ontdekken, in oktober de Ironman Triathalon te bezoeken, bultruggen te spotten (december-May), de sterren bekijken op het Mauna Kea-observatorium of wegglippen op een zonsondergangzeil ...
Een eenvoudige ochtend- of avondwandeling aan de overkant van deze Puako Condo # 303 biedt u adembenemende bezienswaardigheden van zeeschildpadden in hun natuurlijke habitat en een kans om te snorkelen of duiken in beschermde wateren en koraalriffen. Er is een zwembad in de tuin van het complex voor degenen die liever sporten, zonnen of ontspannen bij het zwembad. Kies een paar seizoenssinaasappels of bananen uit de tuin en maak een smoothie met vers sap om op te nippen terwijl je ontspant!
Als u behoefte heeft aan een vakantie-uitje, privacy, toevluchtsoord of vernieuwing, eventing of romantiek, kan dit uw plaats zijn! Zoek niet verder voor een uitzonderlijke accommodatie. The Big Island of Hawaii staat vermeld als een van de '1000 plekken om te zien voordat je sterft' in de boekenlijst van de bestseller van de New York Times # 1.

Great Condo for a perfec stay!
Condo was awesome, well kept. Owners have great communication and really want you to have a great experience. Close to great snorkeling, not far from shopping and other beaches. Beds were comfortable and plenty of room. Having boogey boards and beach chairs to use were great. I will definately stay hear again if I visit the big island.

Very clean and lots of extras
We really liked the condo location; and as many others have said, it was very well appointed and had everything we needed. We used their coolers, beach chairs, life jackets, beach towels, and boogie boards daily. It also had plenty of bath towels which was nice for a family of 5. Thanks for everything Sonja!!

we were impressed with this condo. It was clean and everything that you would need was available.
We love Puako and this is a perfect place to stay. Beaches are close and all the equipment you need is available at this unit. Beds are comfortable and AC available if needed. We just used the ceiling fans. The condo has a nice homey feel to it and I would recommend it to friends. Sonja and Steve are very helpful and answer questions quickly.

We like the option of the ceiling fans, too, and sometimes the breezes flow from the back of the condo through the front which is lovely to sleep by at night. It is such a pleasure to hear that you would recommend our place to friends and that we were helpful to answer your questions quickly. Please come back and visit again whenever your travels take you to the Islands. Mahalos and Aloha!

Apartment was clean, bright and comfortable. Bed and linens so comfortable. In a long history of rentals this was the best equipped apartment we've stayed in, everything you could possibly need plus a great store next door. Finally Steve and Sonja were great to work with, accomadated a late check out for us. Couldn't ask for a better experience, many thanks Steve and Sonja

Puako condo is a wonderful place to stay
My family of 4 had a wonderful time in this fabulous Puako condo. Loved hearing the ocean at night and sitting on the Lanai. The kitchen is small but has everything that you need to cook. We walked across the street for sunsets and watched the turtles in Puako Bay. Very much appreciated having lots of extras ( boogie boards, cooler, mats, hats etc) that made our beach time so easy. The condominium property is very well maintained and people are extremely friendly. Sonja was very attentive to our needs; we needed help opening the lanai so Sonja had a neighbor come over to show us how to do it.

Aloha and many Mahalos for your 5 Star review! We pride ourselves in maintaining a high quality unit with furnishings that are also 5 star! Thank you for noticing the cleanliness, ease of access to the beaches, how delightful it is to see & listen to the ocean from the lanai! We hope you will visit us again soon, we are pleased you enjoyed the island hospitality of Puako...warmest regards, s & s

Wow, what a quiet getaway...
Wow, what a quiet getaway! I was amazed how "small town" this really was. Very quiet in the evenings then you wake up to numerous birds in the morning. I loved how close we were to Hapuna Beach. We packed up the cooler that was in the condo and ate lunch on the beach. I was so happy to find boogie boards in the closet, which made for a fun afternoon! Just a note-if it's cloudy you can still sunburn! I would recommend this condo for couples looking for a quiet, relaxing vacation. Not so much for kids. The building and grounds are very well maintained and I was impressed with the fresh flowers in the elevator-what a nice touch. Just wish there was a hot tub by the pool. Puako beach is such an amazing place to watch the whales, they are so active in the mornings here. I will be back again!

A great place for a relaxing time in the best neighborhood on the Big Island
This Puako Condo is even nicer than the photos show. Walking in the door one can see immediately the interior decor is lovely -- nicely furnished and nicely equipped. We had all the cooking utensils we needed and nice dishware, plus good quality linens, good quality beach chairs, a cooler and insulated bags (good to use when marketing!), and four TV sets (although we only watched the one in the living room!). We also enjoyed the collection of "good read" books (e.g., one of John Grisham's latest). All in all, a very good place for a Puako sojourn.
And the Puako neighborhood itself is unique on the Big Island -- about the only place with homes right on the ocean and ocean access at many places along the 1 1/2 miles of Puako Beach Drive. If one wants nightlife, golf courses and lots of shopping, Puako is not the place to come. But if one wants to experience the way Hawaii used to be, laid back and low key, come to Puako.

Aloha John and Gretchen,
Thank you for your gracious review of our condo in Hawaii! We couldn't agree with you more, the ambience of Puako is extraordinary and that's why we chose it and furnished the way we have...it's a little slice of paradise! Your five star review is especially meaningful to us since you are familiar with the area and many other lodging opportunities. We deeply appreciate your taking the time to reveal to others what we see and experience. Please join us again when you are thinking of a special Hawaii getaway. All our best, Sonja & Steve

Price point for the condo is a major plus given the cost of hotels nearby. However, keep in mind that you get what you pay for. Unfortunately, the landlord elected to ding me in ratings for bringing the cleaniness and multiple plumbing issues to her attention.
Reactie van VrboOwner op 2 apr 2020
We are grateful for the feedback on our condo when guests are unhappy since this normally gives us the opportunity to rectify any problems. Unfortunately, this guest has incorrectly assumed this is why we would prefer not to rent to them again, but the correct reason is because the overall experience was very poor due to no response from our guest when we asked if they received their arrival information, no response again when we asked if everything was in order for them; their disgruntled behavior before even entering into our condo; the inability for our housekeeper to have 15 additional minutes to complete her job in a back to back booking; complaining about the how the shower plumbing was not draining and the manager then later discovered the plug was in the "on" position and other complaints that we were not allowed to enter the into the condo to either validate or fix. Ultimately, we had to exercise owner rights to enter during the guest stay due to safety concerns. We wish our former guests well, and hope they can appreciate the Aloha we repeatedly attempted to provide including the Aloha Care Package we arranged to help soothe their unhappy energy. We now have over 63 Five Star Reviews over the many years we have owned our lovely condo, and there is a reason for it; cleanliness, value, location, hospitality; ongoing Aloha & its well-stocked, and easy, walkable access to the beach.

Perfect Location
My husband and I just returned from a very enjoyable vacation at Steve and Sonja's condominium. Although the condo is older, it is very clean and well maintained. The master bed is quite comfortable. They have provided both beach chairs and beach towels for their guests. The washer and dryer in the unit worked well. There is a hair dryer. We did use the air conditioners some and they kept the condo very cool. The beach access is across the road. The walk is short and the beach is nice. We enjoyed the electric Webber grill on the lani. The view does overlook the parking lot but there is nice water view as well. This area is very quiet which is what we were looking for. The resort areas have many places to dine. Sarah, the property manager, was very helpful. The only negative is there is no dishwasher as stated in the description. We really enjoyed staying here. Please note the homes across the street rent upwards of $2500/night. This condo is in a great area and has a really unique and enjoyable atmosphere.

Second stay at Puako condo
We stayed at Sonja and Steve's condo last year and returned again for two weeks this March. Last year we found everything about this condo was exactly as advertised by Sonja and Steve. This year? Just the same, except only better because of the new appliances. (Tip for visitors - If you stop on the way from the airport to buy groceries, don't purchase condiments, spices or other similar staples without first checking the condo because we found the fridge and cupboards well stocked with these things.)
Across the road is a wonderful sandy beach where we saw turtles while snorkeling. We took a whale watching trip from the Puako Bay boat launch (a five minute walk down the road). This condo is also conveniently located on the island; a short drive from the airport and to other great beaches, grocery stores, farmer's markets and access to the Saddle Road for Mauna Kea or to cross over to the other coast for Volcano National Park.
Finally, Sonja and Steve are wonderful to deal with. We will be returning here next year. (Actually, for purely selfish reason, I should have given this condo a lousy review in order to increase our chances of finding an opening next year. ☺)

Wonderful Stay in Puako
We had a great holiday and enjoyed our stay at this very clean and well-appointed condominium. We loved the location, and our teen boys trudged off to the wonderland across the street every morning with their nets and buckets to explore the tidepools. Between that, the snorkeling, the fishing, and the exploring, it was very "Boy's Life" in a way that is all too uncommon in our family's day-to-day urban lifestyle. As others have noted, it's great being so close to world-class Hapuna Beach for sun and boogie boarding, as well as the beach at mile marker 69 (our favorite thanks to the shade and snorkeling).
One thing that may not be mentioned enough in other reviews is the priceless breeze that blows through every evening and morning (at least in December). It's such a pleasant and peaceful breeze to fall asleep and wake up to. Everyone slept really well during our stay.
As others have mentioned, Sara is really very sweet about nice little touches around the property like leaving fresh flowers in the elevator.
We so overpacked because of the washer/dryer and how well stocked the condo was. Had many opportunities to support the local economy at the general store, farmers markets, etc. We took advantage of the kitchen, but also enjoyed a splurge at Merriman's and The Copper Bar at Mauna Kea. Bamboo up in Hawi was worth the drive.
We hope to return in the future.

Memorable Time in Hawaii!
Condo had everything we needed to stay in Puako. Very convenient location as it is close to all the best beaches on the big Island. Recommend black sand beach for snorkeling; Hapuna and Mauna Kea for relaxing /playing in waves. Everyone at the condo, and the island are really nice. Neighbors helped out with my son when he was stung by a bee. Wife couldn't get enough of mango left out kindly by Sarah the building manager. I would definitely stay again and highly recommend.
The condo was really hot when we first got in, but once we turned on the ac it was better.

Piece of Paradise
I truly enjoyed my stay in Puako in Condo #303. The owners, Steve and Sonja, were wonderful and easy to communicate with when I had questions. I never needed her, it was nice to know there was onsite help/support just down the hall in #301 w/ manager Sara (I did see her around and appreciated the lovely flowers she put out every day). The condo itself was perfect for me: cute, clean, comfy, well-stocked (kitchen, bath, laundry, beach, etc), and w/ a beautiful view from the balcony. Although mostly quiet, there were times when I could hear neighbors - Nothing that destroyed my relaxation and enjoyment, and most seemed to follow the guidelines of doors/windows closed when watching TV, listening to music, etc. What I loved the most was the location. Although big, new hotels can be nice, I grew up in a small beach town so I relished in being a bit “off the grid” and away from the larger developments. I loved all the beach access areas just across the street and/or down the road and I really enjoyed having the cute, friendly local store just next door. To me, this location and this condo were heaven and I’m sure I’ll be back soon.

Everything we hoped for
We had a last minute change of plans during our stay in Hawaii and so were so pleased to find Sonja’s condo at the last minute. She was very helpful and the condo was lovely. Everything you hope for a longer term stay: Very clean, a Well stocked kitchen, lovely balcony with a view, fans and comfy chairs. The condo is within minutes of two great beaches. The building itself is well maintained and quiet. We will definitely be back.

I Recomend This Property Absolutely
This condo is perfectly located to explore all the Big Island has to offer. The condo unit itself is equipped with everything you will need. The general store next door is fantastic. The on site property manager is a super host. I look forward to staying here again. The third floor ocean view and breeze was amazing. If only I could take it home with me. The mattress on the hide a bed in the 3rd bedroom/den could use replacement but we found a mattress cover in the closet to improve it. Literally the only challenge we experienced. The owners were very easy to deal with and accommodating.

Love Puako!
We enjoyed our stay in condo 303. It had everything we need. Beach gear, kitchen extras like spices and books both for pleasure and about the island. We have been to the big Island several times but this has been our favorite. We love that Puako is away from the crowds but close to multiple great beaches.

A wonderful get-away and home away from home - everything you need!
We enjoyed our time at this spacious, comfortable, and relaxing condo with our toddler, and hope to stay there again! A great view, more than a complete kitchen, a very short walk to (and everything you need for) fun at the beach, and super clean. Appreciated the touches of home, the deck seating, washer and dryer, and air conditioning, as I got sick the day we arrived and had to stay there a lot while my husband and daughter went on jaunts to the beach, pool, and store next door, etc. Impressed and thankful for the many kitchen amenities, toaster, rice cooker, microwave, dishes, pots and pans, seasonings, etc., (far more than any other VRBO we've stayed at), since we eat in almost entirely, due to food allergies. The on-site property manager and her assistant were friendly and helpful as well. It was extra windy during our stay but everyone said it was unusually so.

We are pleased you enjoyed the cleanliness of our unit and also the hospitality that we provide from start to finish, including the amazing aloha of our dear property manager.

Perfect for Family
The condo provided the perfect location and accomodations for our family's Spring Break vacation. The three bedrooms and two baths provided plenty of room for our teenagers, in a quiet location. From the third floor balcony, we enjoyed great views of the ocean, whale watching, and beautiful sunsets. There is a beautiful beach across the street, and you are only 5-15 minutes away from additional pristine beaches, hiking locations, and shopping centers. The General Store next door stocks your basic grocery items, as well as many fresh specialty items and friendly sales associates. We appreciated all of the comforts of home and recreational gear, with the well stocked inventory of boogey boards, beach chairs & towels, snorkel gear, cooler, kitchen appliances and dishes, linens, travel guides, and more. We enjoyed falling asleep to the sound of the ocean waves and waking up to the sounds of tropical birds. The pool is warm and clean and the grounds are well maintained and inviting, with a variety of tropical plants and flowers. The reserved parking space was a bonus, and the owners were a pleasure to work with. We would definitely recommend this condo, when visiting the Big Island.

Easy Family Spring Break Week
Our party of five (parents, two college kids, and one of their friends) stayed at this Puako condo for a fun spring break trip that didn't break the bank. The condo decor is island style without being kitschy and was very clean and comfortable. We did not use the AC and were comfortable with the sea breezes and the fans moving air through. For a group with different abilities and interests, the location is perfect. My husband and I liked to get up early while it was still cool and go for a walk or an early snorkel (the snorkelling at the end of Puako Beach Drive was amazing -- we saw turtles, a manta ray, and a multitude of varieties of coral and tropical fish). We would come back to the condo for breakfast and pack up a picnic lunch and head out to a sandy beach where the younger set could boogie board, etc. (Puako Bay is mostly lined with lava tide pools.) Hapuna, Beach 69 and Mauna Kea Beach all within 5-15 minutes drive. Beach towels, four folding beach chairs, a small cooler, four boogie boards, two beach hats were all provided by the condo, stored in the study. Sometimes we picked up sandwiches from the general store next door, which also had a used book exchange and good rental DVDs. One morning we walked along the beach trail that starts at the end of Puako Beach Drive and in fifteen minutes were eating breakfast at the outdoor restaurant at the Fairmount Orchid resort. The trail to the Petroglyphs is close by the same resort. One nonbeach day we drove to Waimea for lunch at Pau restaurant and then north along the Kohalo ridgeline and on to the end of the north shore road to hike down into the beautiful Eden-like Pohulu Valley. Shaved ice in Hawi on the way home along the coast. One evening we drove 10 minutes south to wander around the ancient Hawaiian fishponds on the Mauna Lani resort grounds and had a big splurge dinner at the Napua restaurant overlooking the beach there. A week sped by. We liked the condo option over staying at a fancy resort; it was more affordable, we could do our own cooking when we wanted to, and it felt more "real" to be in a small beach community. The large front bedroom with access to the lanai and ocean view is the best. The condo is delightful and we highly recommend it. We rented snorkel gear for the week from Snorkel Bob's at the Mauna Lani shopping area and did our main food shopping at the Foodland there; take the turn off Hwy 19 toward the Mauna Lani resort (the last turn before the Puako exit).

Aloha Anna Maria!
Thank you for your five star review! We are so pleased to hear that you found our condo to be delightful, affordable, and well equipped for a family spring break getaway! We especially appreciate your attention to detail and sharing how great the view is from the lanai, and how much there is to do from Puako as your base. Examples such as where you had some great experiences with the beaches, snorkeling, tide-pooling, restaurants, walking, hiking, dining, exploring, and food shopping are so valuable! We recognize the abundance of things to do within walking distance from our condo, and this is one of the major reasons that we bought it. Puako is a highly desirable neighborhood due to its remarkable location, its aloha, and amazing island community. Thank you, also, for noticing how we take great care to ensure the condo's cleanliness and island style decor (without being kitschy). This is something we certainly pride ourselves in. The comfort and amenities you aptly described, such as beach towels, chairs, boogie boards, sun hats, beach books, and coolers are all extra touches we like to make sure our guests enjoy. One of our guests even mentioned we have an arsenal of spices in our kitchen! Mahalo and Aloha, Anna Maria, and we hope the next time your plans take you to the islands you will again return to Puako condo 303 as our guests. Until then, may you enjoy safe travels and gentle breezes...Sonja and Steve, Proprietors
