2 Bedroom House in Puna Palisades, Pahoa

Relax in sleek, contemporary style at this modern Pahoa getaway, a private screen home once featured in the pages of Dwell Magazine. Walk the black sands of Kehena Beach in the warm island sunshine, and come home to a striking living space with a 500-foot deck where you can dine and unwind among gorgeous monkeypod trees.
The home features open concept living with entry on the top floor over a walking bridge. From the unique entryway, take in the splendor of the giant monkey-pod tree in the back yard. The home was built to highlight the natural beauty of the area. There is a comfortable living room as well as a sprawling sun deck and plenty of yoga gear if you want to take your sun salutations on the deck. The kitchen and dining areas are well-stocked and ready for your cooking adventures. Down the artful, red spiral stairs are two master suites each with a king sized bed, closet and en-suite bathroom. To note: both showers are out doors from the bathrooms, a unique Hawaiian experience.

Summary: Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We are city dwellers from Germany and really enjoyed being close to nature. We felt like we were sleeping in the jungle, the noises of the animals at night were so loud, but we found it very calming. The house lacked nothing. The only negative thing is that you have to put up with a very long journey. But we knew that beforehand.

Brian S. Apr 12, 2024 07:29:45 AM

Summary: Loved the place. The literal open design was wonderful. The living room has screens and no windows which makes it seem like a tree house. I would stay again.

Summary: Thank you, Saltwater Vacation Rentals for being a good host and providing a wonderful place to stay along the Puna Coast on Big Island in Hawaii. They were most helpful and accommodating in our communications. Hale Ohai is fabulous in modern design and beautifully landscaped. It was very clean and neat upon arrival. It has a very well equipped full-size modern kitchen. We loved the open air feeling of the living spaces. The jungle sounds outside at night were intense but natural. While the location is quite distant from the Hawaii Volcanos National Park and Hilo, it is only about a 20-minute drive to Pahoa for shops and restaurants. But the location is great for black sand beaches and more recent lava flows exploration. We would happily use Hale Ohai again when visiting the SE part of the Big Island. Highly recommended for those seeking modern design, comfort and amenities within a rural setting. Cheers…. Jack B. Gloucester, MA

The modern architecture fits perfectly in the gorgeous jungle setting and the open air concept is very comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped, only lacking an outdoor gas grill. Overall, a great spot to escape the daily grind.

The home is stocked with games, yoga mats and everything you need in the kitchen for cooking. The beach is walking distance from the house. We enjoyed the open air concept upstairs and the privacy of the downstairs bedrooms. The house has a lot of character, seating options both inside and outside and is very comfortable. We'd definitely stay here again.
