Perfect vacation house

Our family of 10 enjoyed a week at Puako and were so sad to leave. The house had everything we needed, as well as a pool that the kids loved and a small beach with great snorkeling. Larger beaches were within a short driving distance. The house is comfortable but not fussy and Mary the property manager was so great with communication. We hope to be back!

The place is superb, great design, great views. Mary at 2 Papayas and her staff are the best. We can't recommend this place any higher!

Perfect!

We were two families traveling together - 4 adults and 5 children, ages 12-16. This house was absolutely perfect. The pictures don't do it justice as it is quite a bit larger than it appears. The outdoor space is plentiful and there are so many different areas to hang out. It rained a few days and because so much is covered, we still enjoyed the outdoors. The rooms are all sizable and the two main living areas are quite large. The location was also great, just steps to a nice beach (where you can watch the sunset) and only a short drive to the resort areas for groceries, restaurants and shopping. You can't go wrong with this house and 2 Papayas does a lovely job managing it.

A Great Family Destination

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: Our stay in Hale Wailani was very nice. We loved the pool and the easy access to one of the best swimming coves on Hawaii. The snorkeling was very good too. Good for multi-generational groups. The house was equipped with just about anything you could want and Mary was great support. Please be aware that the kitchen and living rooms are not air conditioned and can get hot in the afternoon. The heated pool was a lovely way to cool off. We enjoyed the quiet neighborhood, especially the dark skies at night. We saw many shooting stars in August.

Absolutely Stunning!

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: My family and I (party of 7 adults) stayed at Hale Wailani for a total of 8 nights in June 2023. We could not have been happier with this amazing rental! It was just perfect for us. The home itself is incredibly well appointed with everything you could think of, including the sweetest welcome basket with local products (Kona coffee of course) and some lovely papayas. It was so thoughtful and had a great little note to greet us and start our stay. The beds were super comfortable, linens and all the surfaces sparkling clean, the kitchen had all the essentials and more including a Brita filter for daily hydration, filling all our Hydros and taking care of the earth with way less plastic. Loved that! There was ice and extra's throughout the entire home. The backyard....seriously....the pool and patio area...dreamy. Coffee in the morning...staring at the ocean! I can't wait to go back! And the walk to the beach! So quick and such a great little path. The beach had a fantastic view of the sunset every night and the snorkeling during the day was some of our best memories and favorite snorkeling of all time. We were able to see 4 different octopus! Unbelievable. Communicating with Mary was lovely, every conversation from her checking on us to make sure everything was as it should be to answering any of our questions. Mary is a gem and I would work with her anytime. Over-all, I would highly recommend and encourage anyone to rent this amazing place.

The house is very spacious, no matter inside or outside, downstairs or upstairs. Very short walk to the beach and enjoy the water without a big crowd. Mary, the manager, was very attentive and made sure we had everything we need. Check-in and check-out was a breeze. We will definitely come back again.

Love the water!

We had 10 people staying here, ranging in age from 2 to 74, and it was great....plenty of room. If you love to swim and/or snorkel, this property will fill the bill. We had lots of fun in the pool as a family, especially with our night swims before bed. The beach we walked to is only a 3 or 4 minute walk, has shade, turtles, and great snorkeling. This beach is not good for boogie boarding due to the rocks (the rocks help with the snorkeling, though), however there is a good boogie boarding beach just a few minutes away in the car. The manager was very responsive and pleasant to deal with. I highly recommend this house.
