Big Island Hale Mele Mele-Rare January dates available! 3BR home in Puako!

NEWLY AVAILABLE DATES JANUARY 4 - 13, 2026
COME SEE THE HUMPBACK WHALES AND ENJOY THE GREAT WEATHER

Hale Mele Mele is one of Puako’s original beach cottages lovingly restored, refreshed and redecorated to feel like home-away-from-home. The fully-equipped kitchen, while compact, has all you need to prepare home-cooked meals utilizing some of the Big Island’s delicious fresh fish, meats, fruits and veggies. Beautiful quartz countertops and open shelving with colorful dishware complete the charm. The air-conditioned sitting room/dining area just off the kitchen provides a hang-out for friends or family to socialize during meal prep. Conveniently located off the kitchen, is the home’s full bathroom, with a charming and private indoor/outdoor shower accessible from the house or the carport; great for rinsing off salt, sand and sunscreen after a day in the ocean. Where else but the tropics can you bathe with nature year round?
