Puumoi Pink House, 3 bedroom home with sunrise and ocean view.10 minutes to Hilo

Spacious and artistic 1200 sq ft home nestled in open country mountainside. Gorgeous view of sunrise over the water, Hilo Bay, and Mauna Kea. Enjoy this time in nature yet only 5 miles to Hilo!

Enjoy your morning coffee with the amazing sunrise over the ocean. There is usually a slight breeze blowing with nice trade winds. The house is surrounded by gorgeous views of nature. Horses and cattle are nearby. Peaceful, beautiful, and simple setting.
Nearby is Akaka Falls, Onomea Scenic Route, Waipio Valley, and 1 hour drive to Volcano National Park.

There is master bedroom facing ocean with a king size bed and a second bedroom with queen size bed. The living room has a couch fold bed and fold out king size bed.

Note: The second bedroom is a walk through to the living room from the master bedroom. The master bedroom has access to the bathroom through a walk through closet and has access to living room/kitchen through the wrap around porch as well.
A new third bedroom/shower/toilet has been added accessed from outside or master bedroom.

The kitchen is fully equipped with a glass top stove, new refrigerator, microwave, blender, coffee maker, and 2 ovens.

There is a smaller vacation rental next door and 2 tenants nearby on the property. Parts of the lanai are shared such as the entrance and parking area. There is a private lanai with a table and chairs with an ocean view.

There are 3 TVs one in Master bedroom, and one living room, both with Roku setup only, and a small one in new bedroom with channels built in.

Pink house
Loved our stay! Very relaxing country feel but close to Hilo and activities. House is beautifully decorated and has all needed amenities. Just need to be aware that two of the bedrooms are walk through with the first having the bathroom in it. Fine for families but may be a little ackward if staying with friends. Views are amazing! And i loved sitting on the patio reading a book listening to nature.

My wife an in laws stayed here for 3 days and it was beautiful. The house was nice with a big kitchen. It was away from other houses so you couldn't hear anyone else. But the view of the ocean and the sunrise were to die for. Great stay and 10/10 would recommend

Beautiful Views off the Beaten Path
We were a little surprised by the access to this property. It was off the main road down a long bumpy unpaved pathway. What we didn't expect was to share the property with more than just the caretaker. There were 2 others (I believe) who also lived there. The laundry was outside and shared by everyone. If sleeping in "the quiet room" it is alarming when they start laundry at 6:30-7 in the morning as there is a door to the bedroom right next to the laundry. There are technically 2 bathrooms in the home and 3 showers which worked well for us as we were traveling with a friend. You had to go through 1 bedroom to get to the other or go out the patio. It wasn't quite what I expected, but we made it work.

Beautiful house but needs more attention to details.
It was an absolutely beautiful house and a has a lot of space. The house has great potential but maybe since it's a big house, certain cleaning details are overlooked.

Affordable with a view
Very helpful property manager with many local suggestions. Nice view of the ocean from the back yard. Quiet and isolated. There are another next door rental property but quiet. Property is slightly older than pictures. Has most necessary stuffs except no disk washer. Overall, a pleasant and comfortable stay.

eclectic, charming, and perfect location
This property is about 1/2 mile from the ocean with terrific views from their porch across fields to the ocean. (You can't see or hear the main road in between). You're about 5 miles from downtown Hilo so it's a breeze to get in town if you want dinner, shopping, etc. The home is as depicted in the photos. This home is a wonderful, charming place with plenty of space (especially for 2). While there are other units on the property, we had complete privacy and spent the bulk of our time on the patio without any interruption or knowledge of others being around. I'd highly recommend this property - and felt lucky to find it after going through so many options in the Hilo area. If anyone is a foodie, Moon and Turtle restaurant in Hilo is the best food on the island. I wish I was in Hilo long enough to go back. Reservations necessary.

Room With A View
From beginning to departure our rental experience was seamless, THANK YOU AMY! As you exit the highway and drive up the road to the property you realize you have now entered into the country and nature. The house has every kitchen tool you'll need and provides a generous open floor plan, open and designed for a merging of inside/outside. Walls of glass doors swing open allowing trade winds to cool the rooms. The panoramic view of the coastline with it's changing light and colors continuously reaffirms the magisty of Hawaii. Hilo is less than 10 minutes away. Shop for groceries and any supplies at KTA in town and then settle into the house and truly enjoy this treasure. Again, Amy, THANK YOU FOR YOUR ALOHA SPIRIT. Mahalo, Terry & Bob

Lovely, comfortable property with attentive property management
We were staying for Merrie Monarch...my girlfriend, myself and another couple. The space worked really well for us. While there is only a master bedroom and a smaller bedroom, you can choose several configurations for who sleeps where, including the living room, as they all have more than one bed or mattress. The huge kitchen and giant dining table were perfect for congregating - we just wish we had been able to spend more time at the house. But we had things to see! The lanai is perfectly situated to take in the enormous view of the water. The only glitch was that something was going on with the water heater, and one of our party showered on Saturday night and didn't get hot water. Well, I blame him for not telling the rest of us, because I took a shower on Sunday, discovered the issue, and told Amy, the property manager right away. She came right over to problem solve, got the owners on the phone, they wanted to come up to the house and solve it right away, but we were getting ready to leave so just asked that they wait. As we were driving out they were coming up their long, long dirt road with cookies for all of us as an apology. I only relay this because they handled it exactly as they should have - with attention. Things happen - but it's how you respond that makes the difference in the hostelry industry. Thanks so much for a great stay...and we hope to be back!
