About this home
Make Puako the starting point for a relaxing Hawaii Island escape in this top-floor studio. Designed to accommodate up to six guests, the space offers a convenient home base for couples, families, or small groups exploring the Kohala Coast.
The studio format keeps everyone connected in one central vacation setting. Its top-floor position adds to the sense of retreat, creating a welcoming place to return after beach outings, scenic drives, and visits to nearby historic sites.

Pool access offers another way to enjoy the island climate. Guests can balance time by the water with visits to Puako’s shoreline, nearby state recreation areas, archaeological sites, and the shops and restaurants found around the Kohala Coast.
