Your Big Island real estate specialists. Locally owned and operated in historic Puako, Hawaii.
Unlike the other more developed islands in the chain, the Big Island feels primordial and wild. And for health-conscious travelers, adventure loving enthusiasts, and romantic traveling Hawaii is a favorite. Activities like hiking, kayaking, deep sea fishing, diving and snorkeling play a big part in local life, which is primarily lived outdoors in the warm but trade wind-cooled breezes.

If you're looking for a low-key, outdoorsy lifestyle, the Big Island is the tropical sanctuary you seek.
The translation of Puako is literally “sugar cane blossom” Pua (blossom) and Ko (sugar cane). The area was settled by the Hawaiians, who established several small fishing villages along the coast. Puako has a rich history of petroglyph art. Access to the Puako pertroglyphs through the Mauna Lani Resort.
The Polynesians first spoke of a mystical island paradise to the north called Hawaii or "Hawa'i." When they finally set foot on Hawaii's Big Island around A.D. 600, they discovered an enormous, lush land mass, with thousand-foot waterfalls, thriving reefs, fertile valleys, and volcanoes exploding with red lava. |
