February Puako Stay

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 six day stay at the condo was perfect for a family of four. The kitchen has everything you need, the furnishings were comfortable, and the recent updates gave it a contemporary island vibe. We also appreciated the availability of beach chairs, cooler and umbrella. The location cannot be beat and the agency was responsive, friendly and focused on making our stay easy. Thank you for hosting us.

Puako Dream condo

Our stay here was nothing short of amazing. I would love to keep this gem a secret for myself but that would not be fair to Mary, or the condo owner. We loved the location-- a small off the beaten path community right across from the water. We would walk across to explore the tide pools or to watch the sunset. It was close to amazing beaches but away from the chaos of a large resort. The condo had everything we needed, even travel mugs for our morning coffee. Beach chairs were also at the condo and even an umbrella which we appreciated. Mary helped us arrange groceries to be delivered before we arrived and that was wonderful after a long day of travel. The lanai was one of our favorite spots to rest, have a glass of wine, and chat before getting ready to go to dinner. We would return in a heartbeat.

Lovely stay, super clean

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 mom and I loved our stay in Puako. Super clean, updated condo with beautiful ocean views from the lanai. Conveniently located next door to the Puako General Store and right across the street from a beautiful beach access. The beds were very comfortable, showers very large and great shower heads! Kitchen was well-stocked, and we lived the big granite island in the middle with stools, very fun! Wine fridge was awesome to have, maybe add champagne glasses and more stemmed wine glasses to inventory. Quiet location. We would stay again. Thank you 2 Papayas for your awesome services as always.

Would return in a heartbeat!

Puako Beach Condo #309 was the perfect spot for our trip. The condo is beautiful, spacious, and so well appointed. The view from the lanai was gorgeous, and the small condo complex is quiet and relaxing. Puako is convenient to amazing beaches and walks, but without the crowds of a resort. While not really a swimming beach, the beach is indeed right across the street - perfect for relaxing, watching the sunrise/sunset, or star gazing. The staff of 2Papayas were amazing - they communicated regularly, were flexible when our flight times changed, and were willing to have a local family member come early to drop off groceries for us. The condo was so well supplied (not always the case with rentals), and we were greeted with signature papayas and flowers. I particularly appreciated the elevator, ramped walkway, and close parking space as I was traveling with my elderly mother. (One small challenge was that the beds were high for her - but the condo was even appointed with a step stool!) Overall, one of my absolute best VRBO rentals!

Blissful stay in Puako

My friend and I had a wonderful week at a newly renovated condo. Located on a quiet street, in a quiet, well maintained complex, with easy access (10 minutes drive or less ) to Hapuna, beach 69, and Mauna Kea beaches. Mary and her crew at 2 Papayas were gracious hosts, receiving our groceries from a local market, a spotless condo, and special welcome gifts. I would book again with 2 Papayas for excellent service.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is condo living at its best! And no extra charge for the view! Updated appliances and finishes, a wine fridge, and local artwork all enhance the ambience. Plus, 2 Papayas adds their little touches (cool towels and refreshing Hawaiian drinks on your arrival, a guide to local hotspots) - and quick response if there is a problem -that makes one's stay memorable!

Great place and great location

The unit is fabulous. It is incredibly well remodeled and has lots of good stuff for guests. Mary and Sean were very helpful. Incredible snorkeling and shore diving are literally steps away. The ocean water is excellent. Could have stayed another several weeks. Unit only has AC in 1 bedroom so be prepared if staying in the summer.

Great location, great vacation

Had a wonderful time - apartment was maintained well and clean. Great view of ocean for both the bedroom and the living room. All utilities required to do basic cooking and having a meal were available. Mary was very welcoming and checked on us multiple times - both before arriving and after we had checked in to ensure that everything was in order. Good beaches nearby, restaurants are a bit of a drive, general store nearby is a tad expensive ... overall a great place at this price point.

Beautiful Place

The condo is in a beautiful location. It has ocean views from the living room and master bedroom. The condo was clean, well-maintained and well-equipped. 2 Papayas provided great service from our first inquiry through the check-out process. Puako is a lovely community. There is a wonderful general store next door to the property. Beach 69 and Hapuna Beach are near by.

A peaceful paradise!

See reviews prior to this - we agree with all the comments. We stayed 7 nights. The weather was all but perfect; just a bit warmish in late afternoon, but there was usually a moderate breeze, which made it tolerable. We didn't use the A/C at all, but had the fans on when it warmed up. Sitting out on the lanai and watching the ocean was one of our favorite things to do. That said, for a couple hours in mid-late afternoon the sun shines directly on the lanai and you might find it a bit too warm. Once the sun gets lower (this time of year, it sets almost straight out from the lanai) it's comfortable again. Note - the problems from the eruption at Kilauea are certainly serious, but the volcanic activity hasn't affected this part of the Big Island *at all*. If you go further south than Kailua-Kona, you may start running into vog (depending on volcanic activity, wind strength and direction) but the problems in the Puna district haven't been an issue at all near Puako. Don't be frightened away by overwrought media reports! We had a wonderful, wonderful time and will definitely check this unit's availability as our first choice on our next trip.

Perfect getaway

This Puako condo was absolutely perfect. Great location, clean, comfortable and with a fully stocked kitchen and beach supplies, plus games! Condo area was quiet and away from all the tourist hubbub, but close enough to everything that you could easily get to many of the beaches, sights, and restaurants, plus the local general store next door had most everything you need. We had 3 adults staying at the condo and this was perfect, could be a bit cramped for eating/relaxing with more than 4. Overall, great place!

Clean, well stocked , beautiful location . These condos are right across the road from some of the best snorkeling reefs (equipment provided) . They are a bike ride along the shore from one of the best state run beaches in the world and 4 major resorts where sunset happy hours are 20 minutes away. The staff are friendly and helpful . I will be back!!
