We are so excited to have added another beautiful Big Island home to our rental pool! Hale La’i is located in the enchanting community of Puako Beach, the only residential oceanfront community on the South Kohala Coast. This 4BD/3BA 2-story home is located 75 yards from a beach with gorgeous marine life-filled tide pools and is the ideal place for a family getaway or gathering of friends.
This impeccable home provides everything for a peaceful and relaxing holiday, peppered with adventure if you so choose. Set upon an expansive grassy lawn, this fully enclosed property offers a safe haven for young and old. The over 2,500 sq.ft. of living space features furnishings that are all brand new and well appointed.
The fully stocked kitchen has a gas range and dual ovens. There is formal dining both indoor and outdoor and wrap around lanais on the upper level lend to beautiful views in a panoramic setting. The master bedroom and bathroom encompass the entire loft area of the 2nd story and has a pony wall that opens to the great room below.
Downstairs is an ‘Ohana’ studio equipped with a full kitchen and bath, a generous King size bed, and an outdoor heated shower enclosed in lava rock for your continued privacy.
Amenities
Just steps away is the beach access leading you to the marine life laden shores of Puako. The calm tide pools are perfect for young explorers with scoop nets in hand, and many large trees (aka. organic jungle gyms) dot this particular shoreline.
The little beach is perfect for sun tanning while keeping a close eye on the kids or immersing yourself in your favorite book. A good pair of reef walkers, which this home provides, will allow you hours and miles of exploration along this pristine stretch of beach, which just offshore boasts world-class snorkeling and scuba-diving.
After a day at the beach, come home to convene with family and friends for a rumpus game of ‘hoops’ on the basketball court, or cheer on your favorite opponent at the ping-pong table while you wet your whistle with a home-spun concoction at the ‘Koa Surfboard Bar;’ all of which is included on the ground level, covered, open-air recreation area.
For a local adventure outside of the home, gather up your crew and take a 15 minute beach walk to the nearby Fairmont Orchid for further sunsets, conversations, cocktails, appetizers, live music, and dinner. Or hop in your car and take a 5 minute drive to the famed Mauna Kea Beach Hotel or the special Mauna Lani Resort.
Puako is home to the largest collection of Hawaiian petroglyphs in the State. The petroglyphs (rock drawings) depict ancient Hawaiian Island life and hold a deep cultural meaning and value. Over 3,000 of these drawings can be found in Puako alone, each with a story to be told.
