  • Jun 03, 2026 The Hale Pua property provided an excellent location for our Family Vacation with 14 attendees, aged 3 months to 70. The large kitchen, bedrooms, and living spaces provided excellent accommodations and areas for all to gather together or spread out as desired. The property is very well maintained. The yard provided plenty of room and the landscaping is well maintained and beautiful.The Home's location provides excellent ocean and sunset views. Wave action precluded any direct access to the ocean at most times of our stay. The pool and hot tub provided a great alternative to ocean access while still being able to listen to the calming sound of the waves. The game and media rooms provided a great location for the kids to enjoy each other's company.The Home was well stocked. The dual dishwashers, dual washers and dryers, and three large refrigerators were very welcome for our large group.The Host communication was very good, accurate, and timely. The location is very convenient to explore the Big Island, but very few items are within walking distance. This Home had all the luxuries and amenities one could desire with no down sides.We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and would recommend it to all. Don F
  • Apr 18, 2026 The house was wonderful and you couldn’t beat the location. This was a once in a lifetime vacation for my family and it didn’t disappoint. I only wish I had a few more days to just relax at the house. We stayed too busy doing activities! Cynthia P

  • Nov 06, 2025 Highly recommend! The house was everything they advertised. It was the best stocked kitchen I’ve ever seen. The view was spectacular and the pool/hot tub were great. The bedrooms were nice and cool and comfortable and the house was plenty big enough for the ten of us with room to spare. The beach amenities were a nice surprise - beach chairs/umbrella/plenty of snorkeling equipment/water shoes/toys. Highly recommend! Stacy A

We were absolutely blown away with how nice the home was and the view from the backyard was breathtaking! We even canceled a planned day trip so we could have more time to relax and enjoy this beautiful house. Check-in was seamless, and the host Gather was very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. The neighborhood was safe and quiet, with a nice outdoor market within walking distance. It was the perfect base for exploring Kailua-Kona. I’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area! Brian D
  • Jul 24, 2025 Our family had a fantastic time on the Big Island! Hale Pua is a great property. It is well stocked with everything you need for a large group. It is great to wake up everyday and enjoy the beauty of the ocean as you sit and on the patio with the ocean in your backyard. The location is near shopping and restaurants. The host was very easy to work with and very responsive. Highly recommend for a larger group. Mahalo! Joe W

  • May 25, 2025 Hale Pua is Spectacular! SPECTACULAR is the only way to describe the Hale Pua house! Our family of 11 with ages 6-65 stayed here to celebrate my husband and my 40th wedding anniversary. From the minute you walk through the front door, you can see the ocean. This home is truly ocean front. The patio, pool and spa all face the ocean. We loved watching the sunset every night, and the waves occasionally crashing over the retaining wall. Our sons bought a fishing pole and caught fish right off the patio. With 5 bedrooms each with an en-suite, everyone was comfortable. The Ohana suite was perfect for our daughter, son-in-law and their sons ages 11 and 6. Waking up to the magnificent ocean view from the master suite upstairs was wonderful! The kitchen with its soaring ceiling filled the home with natural light. It is well stocked with every kitchen tool . Two washers, two dryers, two refrigerators, two dishwashers, this home is perfect for a large group. The theater was great for family popcorn and movie nights. Another nice amenity was the beach toys, chairs , umbrellas, towels and snorkel gear, provided free for your use. The communication with Gather and Elite was easy and prompt. Situated on Ali’i Drive in the heart of Kona, this house is close to shops and restaurants. We liked the gated entrance and private parking. Everyone agreed the Hale Pua house made our family trip AMAZING!! and our anniversary truly unforgettable. Theresa C
  • May 15, 2025 A Dream Vacation at Hale Pua – Our Family's Favorite Retreat This was our second time staying at Hale Pua through Elite Pacific Vacations and Gather Vacations, and once again, it exceeded every expectation. I brought my entire family—13 of us—including my granddaughter (just 16 months old), our 20- and 30-somethings, myself, and even my ex-husband. That alone should say something about the magic of this place! Hale Pua has an incredible way of bringing everyone together while giving us all the space we need. The house is breathtaking. With soaring ceilings and expansive ocean-facing windows, you’re wrapped in light and serenity from the moment you walk in. It’s so spacious that there were times some of us wouldn’t cross paths for hours—which speaks volumes for a group of 13! The kitchen is a dream for any culinary enthusiast, equipped with double refrigerators, dishwashers, ovens, and even refrigerated beverage drawers. There are two breakfast bars, a generous indoor dining space, and outdoor dining that easily fit us all. The layout is perfect for large families or groups who enjoy cooking and sharing meals together. Each bedroom is generously sized with high ceilings, big windows, and its own ensuite bathroom—even the office has one! We especially loved the media room with seating for 12, and the game/rec room that opens to the front yard—perfect for a bit of fun and play. The home is right on the ocean, and we went snorkeling directly out front. Gated for privacy, you truly feel like you're in your own peaceful sanctuary. What really sets Hale Pua apart, though, is the unparalleled service. Anytime we had a question or need, the management team responded within 30 minutes. Their communication and attentiveness are rare these days, and it's clear they care deeply about every guest's experience. Honestly, I was hesitant to write this review—not because we didn’t love it, but because I almost want to keep Hale Pua a secret. But it’s only right to give credit where it’s due. This home has given us cherished memories, and we’re already planning our next return. Fall in love with Hale Pua like we have. You won’t regret it. Thank you to Gather Vacations and Elite Pacific Vacations Teams for another unforgettable stay! — A forever grateful guest Jennifer W
  • Feb 15, 2025 We had a great family vacation with kids and grandkids. It was a perfect house for together time but close enough to other activities fo some individual activities as well. Would stay there again in a heartbeat!! Ariane S
  • Feb 07, 2025 Stunningly beautiful location, with waves crashing at our doorstep. Whales and dolphins spotted several times, right from the lawn chairs. Spacious, clean home. Kitchen well furnished. Appreciated the aqua socks, beach umbrellas, chair, pool toys. Pool was a bit too cool for adults. Ellie B
  • Feb 01, 2025 Hale Pua It was wayyyy more than we needed for just two of us, but we had an amazing time. The views are fabulous at any time of day or night, but my favorites were the evening sunset ones. The property was immaculate and extremely well equipped with everything you would need to host a large group of friends or family. And the lanai,with outdoor dining and deck chairs, m pool and hot tub were the cherry on top. This property’s it all in a great location, was easily accessed with plenty of parking and, a huge kitchen, 2 sets of washer/dryers, loads of bedrooms and space for everyone to spread out and relax. Not to mention the full wall sliding glass doors and direct ocean frontage. I highly recommend it. Lisa R
  • Jan 14, 2025 Oh my gosh this was the Best vacation ever! We bought food to cook and never had to leave the property our entire stay there. We had a semi beach for the kids and adults to play in. And every thing else and then some was right there. The View and home were absolutely stunning. Thank you, our stay was worth every single penny. Kimberly E
  • Dec 23, 2024 Amazing! We absolutely LOVED this home. Beautiful and comfortable. Overall amazing. Cara N
  • Nov 07, 2024 The property was beautiful and had more than enough space for our crew of 15. Three family’s all had sufficient space to have proper numbers of beds. The pictures online are very accurate. The double fridge, washer, dryer and dishwasher’s was a very nice touch. You are right in the edge of the ocean which offered the must beautiful views and spectacular sunsets, however if you have little ones be careful they are climbing on the ocean wall can be very dangerous. Everything in the house worked well. Overall amazing experience. Steve C
  • Aug 19, 2024 Fabulous property! It was beyond our expectations and the home was perfect for our family! 10 out of 10! We will definitely book again! Pamela H
  • Jul 22, 2024 We had a wonderful stay. The house was perfect - beautiful, clean, well-appointed. We had a fabulous and extraordinarily comfortable time!! ALison A
  • Jun 29, 2024 Our group of three families had a great time at Hale Pua. Large, comfortable, well-stocked. The house is on a busy street but road noise was never a problem. The location is great for exploring the island. Would definitely recommend and return if we get the chance. David H
  • Jun 21, 2024 For a family of sixteen with eight adults and 8 kids this home was perfect for our vacation. The pictures on the listing can’t possibly depict how beautiful this home actually is and how breathtaking the views are from the backyard. The home was very clean and well maintained. There is more than adequate space inside and out for a large family. The property management team is top notch and quickly addressed any issues. They checked in on us several times and were very responsive and professional. We do a family vacation every other year with our kids and grandkids and this location/home is tops on our list. Anthony N
  • Jun 06, 2024 We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful house right on the water! The sound of the waves was so peaceful. The house had all the amenities we could ask for - and more! When we had any questions, Gather responded quickly to us with answers. The location was perfect and private, and the sandy beach was only a very short distance to walk. We would recommend this place, and Gather, to anyone! Claire V
  • Mar 12, 2024 Very nice setting, good parking, plenty of space for everyone. For a large group it worked out well. 4 families 12 people and did not feel crowded . Kitchen well appointed however rice cooker did not work. House right on ocean so beautiful views, sounds of waves crashing. Minor issue with hot tub, managers quickly resolved. Good location Mike H
  • Jan 13, 2024 We rented this house with a days notice. Our flight was canceled and our family of 12 suddenly was without accomodations. Not only was the house everything that we needed as a large family, but the management company was outstanding and made the rental process fast and easy. When half of our family had a new fllight cancelation once again, we needed to extend our visit by a day and even that process was made easy. They went over and above to accomodate us at time when we were all feeling in a panic. You won't go wrong renting this house! Deborah H
  • Sep 17, 2023 We loved our stay at Hale Pua! Beautiful, spacious and comfortable accommodations and absolutely breathtaking views! Waves crashing over the seawall, sunrises and sunsets and so much more. Close to downtown Kona, yet completely private. Our young grandchildren thoroughly enjoyed the pool and the media room of course! The adults were thrilled with the setting. We had a wonderful time! Thank you so much! Debbie N
  • Aug 10, 2023 Property was everything we expected, perfect fit for all 16 of us, this made for a wonderful experience in Hawaii. Robert M
  • Jul 16, 2023 Beautiful property in a great location! Loved the pool and hot tub and the backyard had enough grass for the kids to play soccer and football. Snorkeling was great along with the fishing in the ocean behind the home. There was plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for our group of fourteen. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Rebecca W
  • Jul 03, 2023 Being in Hawaii alone is breathtaking, but to have this house and this view just made our trip that much better. This house is even more beautiful in person!! It’s an actual dream home, I can’t recommend it enough. Or family of 16 fit perfectly and everyone was so impressed by how gorgeous it was. The management team was also so amazing and helpful every step of the way. Highly recommend to anyone taking a big group trip!! Kamie C

  • Dec 31, 2022 This is the hands down the finest property we’ve stayed. Every thing about it was perfect. There is literally 2 of everything! An abundance of beach towels and the media room was great for enjoyment t of movies at the end of the night! The response from management was extremely timely even on New Year’s Eve night and day. We were a family of 7 adults. Everyone had a wing. I can’t say enough about it. Worth every penny! Jennifer W
  • Sep 28, 2022 I highly recommend this place I highly recommend this place. The sunsets are postcard worthy. The house has everything you could possibly need. Turtle beach is just a short walk away and we saw multiple turtles there. The waves splash up on the grass in the afternoon which is so cool. Management company is on point with their communication. I could on and on. Would love to come back Whit/lindsay W

Honestly, I was hesitant to write this review—not because we didn’t love it, but because I almost want to keep Hale Pua a secret. But it’s only right to give credit where it’s due. This home has given us cherished memories, and we’re already planning our next return. Fall in love with Hale Pua like we have. You won’t regret it. Thank you to Gather Vacations and Elite Pacific Vacations Teams for another unforgettable stay! — A forever grateful guest Jennifer W
Feb 15, 2025 We had a great family vacation with kids and grandkids. It was a perfect house for together time but close enough to other activities fo some individual activities as well. Would stay there again in a heartbeat!! Ariane S
Feb 07, 2025 Stunningly beautiful location, with waves crashing at our doorstep. Whales and dolphins spotted several times, right from the lawn chairs. Spacious, clean home. Kitchen well furnished. Appreciated the aqua socks, beach umbrellas, chair, pool toys. Pool was a bit too cool for adults. Ellie B
Feb 01, 2025 Hale Pua It was wayyyy more than we needed for just two of us, but we had an amazing time. The views are fabulous at any time of day or night, but my favorites were the evening sunset ones. The property was immaculate and extremely well equipped with everything you would need to host a large group of friends or family. And the lanai,with outdoor dining and deck chairs, m pool and hot tub were the cherry on top. This property’s it all in a great location, was easily accessed with plenty of parking and, a huge kitchen, 2 sets of washer/dryers, loads of bedrooms and space for everyone to spread out and relax. Not to mention the full wall sliding glass doors and direct ocean frontage. I highly recommend it. Lisa R
Jan 14, 2025 Oh my gosh this was the Best vacation ever! We bought food to cook and never had to leave the property our entire stay there. We had a semi beach for the kids and adults to play in. And every thing else and then some was right there. The View and home were absolutely stunning. Thank you, our stay was worth every single penny. Kimberly E
Dec 23, 2024 Amazing! We absolutely LOVED this home. Beautiful and comfortable. Overall amazing. Cara N
Nov 07, 2024 The property was beautiful and had more than enough space for our crew of 15. Three family’s all had sufficient space to have proper numbers of beds. The pictures online are very accurate. The double fridge, washer, dryer and dishwasher’s was a very nice touch. You are right in the edge of the ocean which offered the must beautiful views and spectacular sunsets, however if you have little ones be careful they are climbing on the ocean wall can be very dangerous. Everything in the house worked well. Overall amazing experience. Steve C
Aug 19, 2024 Fabulous property! It was beyond our expectations and the home was perfect for our family! 10 out of 10! We will definitely book again! Pamela H
Jul 22, 2024 We had a wonderful stay. The house was perfect - beautiful, clean, well-appointed. We had a fabulous and extraordinarily comfortable time!! ALison A
Jun 29, 2024 Our group of three families had a great time at Hale Pua. Large, comfortable, well-stocked. The house is on a busy street but road noise was never a problem. The location is great for exploring the island. Would definitely recommend and return if we get the chance. David H
Jun 21, 2024 For a family of sixteen with eight adults and 8 kids this home was perfect for our vacation. The pictures on the listing can’t possibly depict how beautiful this home actually is and how breathtaking the views are from the backyard. The home was very clean and well maintained. There is more than adequate space inside and out for a large family. The property management team is top notch and quickly addressed any issues. They checked in on us several times and were very responsive and professional. We do a family vacation every other year with our kids and grandkids and this location/home is tops on our list. Anthony N
Jun 06, 2024 We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful house right on the water! The sound of the waves was so peaceful. The house had all the amenities we could ask for - and more! When we had any questions, Gather responded quickly to us with answers. The location was perfect and private, and the sandy beach was only a very short distance to walk. We would recommend this place, and Gather, to anyone! Claire V
Mar 12, 2024 Very nice setting, good parking, plenty of space for everyone. For a large group it worked out well. 4 families 12 people and did not feel crowded . Kitchen well appointed however rice cooker did not work. House right on ocean so beautiful views, sounds of waves crashing. Minor issue with hot tub, managers quickly resolved. Good location Mike H
Jan 13, 2024 We rented this house with a days notice. Our flight was canceled and our family of 12 suddenly was without accomodations. Not only was the house everything that we needed as a large family, but the management company was outstanding and made the rental process fast and easy. When half of our family had a new fllight cancelation once again, we needed to extend our visit by a day and even that process was made easy. They went over and above to accomodate us at time when we were all feeling in a panic. You won't go wrong renting this house! Deborah H
Sep 17, 2023 We loved our stay at Hale Pua! Beautiful, spacious and comfortable accommodations and absolutely breathtaking views! Waves crashing over the seawall, sunrises and sunsets and so much more. Close to downtown Kona, yet completely private. Our young grandchildren thoroughly enjoyed the pool and the media room of course! The adults were thrilled with the setting. We had a wonderful time! Thank you so much! Debbie N
Aug 10, 2023 Property was everything we expected, perfect fit for all 16 of us, this made for a wonderful experience in Hawaii. Robert M
Jul 16, 2023 Beautiful property in a great location! Loved the pool and hot tub and the backyard had enough grass for the kids to play soccer and football. Snorkeling was great along with the fishing in the ocean behind the home. There was plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for our group of fourteen. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Rebecca W
Jul 03, 2023 Being in Hawaii alone is breathtaking, but to have this house and this view just made our trip that much better. This house is even more beautiful in person!! It’s an actual dream home, I can’t recommend it enough. Or family of 16 fit perfectly and everyone was so impressed by how gorgeous it was. The management team was also so amazing and helpful every step of the way. Highly recommend to anyone taking a big group trip!! Kamie C
Jun 10, 2023 This house was perfect for our large family. The pool was great for the kids and it was in a great location. McKena R

Apr 11, 2023 We stayed here with 3 teenagers and three small children. The pool was great and the view of the water from the backyard was amazing. We loved the kitchen and the master bedroom suite. Had one question for management and they responded very quickly. Would definitely stay here again! Jennifer S
Mar 13, 2023 Beautiful. Our families enjoyed very much. Thank you Arun R
Mar 13, 2023 Beautiful. Our families enjoyed very much. Thank you Arun R
Dec 31, 2022 This is the hands down the finest property we’ve stayed. Every thing about it was perfect. There is literally 2 of everything! An abundance of beach towels and the media room was great for enjoyment t of movies at the end of the night! The response from management was extremely timely even on New Year’s Eve night and day. We were a family of 7 adults. Everyone had a wing. I can’t say enough about it. Worth every penny! Jennifer W
Sep 28, 2022 I highly recommend this place I highly recommend this place. The sunsets are postcard worthy. The house has everything you could possibly need. Turtle beach is just a short walk away and we saw multiple turtles there. The waves splash up on the grass in the afternoon which is so cool. Management company is on point with their communication. I could on and on. Would love to come back Whit/lindsay W
