My husband & I stayed here 3 nights - and were indeed very pleased. Had flown to Kona, Big Island to attend our son's wedding near by. Lovely landscaped grounds, our room had it's own entrance, soothing Hawaian music very softly played through out the home. Our hosts were most pleasant & kindly agreed to allow us to bring 4... More

We chose to stay at Puako B&B because of its reviews and proximity to beaches we wanted to explore. We were delighted by the many small touches that made us feel truly welcomed and comfortable, both in our room and in the shared areas. Tasty breakfasts, and lots of caring attention paid to us by Kelly, our host. Beautiful landscaping... More

Puako B&B is a relaxing, close-to-the-beach, slice of Hawaii. I had not been to Hawaii for 37 years, and am usually a large-chain-hotel type of client. Staying here was perfect for a single traveler, and the couples I met were very happy there also. The rooms are tastefully decorated, with in-room A/C units so you can chose to use it... More

It has been 10 years since our last trip to the Big Island and we were dismayed by the growth in commercialism and the mega resorts. Puako B&B was a pleasant surprise and a glimpse of a rapidly disappearing Hawaii. Located in a little quiet little village off the main highway, the property is located close to some of the... More

After 5 days at Kona's Four Seasons Resort, I checked into Puako which was filled with a homeful of new and interesting friends. It was overbooked. But Punahele, my excellent host provided a next-door space that was larger than what I had reserved and at no additional cost. He was an ideal host and could not have been more accommodating,...

Puako is one of my favorite spots on the Big Island, near some of the most incredible beaches on earth as well as interesting cultural sites like the Puukohola Heiau National Historic Site and the Lapakahi State Historical Park‎. Paul's pretty home is situated near these areas and is landscaped beautifully and decorated tastefully. However, upon arrival we noticed a... More

This B&B has an excellent location. Although very close to the resort area, it is secluded in a traditional small village in the Puako shore. It is very quiet in the night and the sky is amazingly bright with an excellent view of the stars and the milkway. There is a small grocery store at walking distance and a few... More

We were visiting the island during the airline bankruptcy ordeal (2 in a week!) and after staying at several resorts and another B&B on the island (we like to explore), we've concluded that the Puako B&B offered the Hawaiian experience of Aloha. When we arrived, Paul offered the kids the gear we'd need for our stay: boogie boards and snorkeling... More

I recently stayed at Puako Bed and Breakfast...The owners are wonderfully hilarous guys with style, manners and great coffee. The place was so clean and comfortable...It has a lot of history being that it was the childhood home of one of the owners. Puako is so much more authentic than the dominating big name hotels that choke the shoreline...There is... More
