About this property

Hale Mele Mele is one of Puako’s original beach cottages lovingly restored, refreshed and redecorated to feel like home-away-from-home. The fully-equipped kitchen, while compact, has all you need to prepare home-cooked meals utilizing some of the Big Island’s delicious fresh fish, meats, fruits and veggies. Beautiful quartz countertops and open shelving with colorful dishware complete the charm. The air-conditioned sitting room/dining area just off the kitchen provides a hang-out for friends or family to socialize during meal prep. Conveniently located off the kitchen, is the home’s full bathroom, with a charming and private indoor/outdoor shower accessible from the house or the carport; great for rinsing off salt, sand and sunscreen after a day in the ocean. Where else but the tropics can you bathe with nature year round?

Perfect little beach house

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at hale mele mele. The place was spotless and had everything we needed for a family of 4. Quick 2 minute walk to the beach every night for sundowners and sea turtles on the beach. The snorkeling at the end of the road is amazing - and a lot less crowded than close by beaches. Perfect launch point for the area and exploring. Highly recommend.
