Puako 74 is an exceptional property, comprising of a magnificent main house with three bedrooms and three bathrooms, as well as an attached one bedroom "ohana" guest suite, ideal for a family with a new baby, grandparents, a quiet, creative and comfortable work space, or a couple seeking a romantic retreat.

A sweeping, wrap-around lanai and expansive lawn shaded by a majestic, decades-old banyan tree offers guests just as much enjoyment outdoors as indoors.

Enter the main house through wide double doors that open into an sumptuous foyer and great room, consisting of a lavish living room, grand dining area and comprehensive gourmet kitchen. An open floor-plan allows family and friends to hang out together while cooking, savoring a beverage at the long granite bar, dining at the grand wooden table or relaxing on the two large and luxurious sofas. The bright and spacious master bedroom, situated at the end of the long window-lined hallway provides privacy with a king-size bed and ensuite bath, featuring a luxurious soaking tub, separate tiled shower and double sink vanity. Sliding glass doors from the master bedroom open onto the lanai just steps away from the ocean. A spacious walk-in closet provides plush bathrobes and all the space you'll need for your vacation attire.

The three bedrooms in the main house all offer ocean views, each with flat screen smart TVs, ceiling fans and independent air-conditioning controls. Bedroom 2 is a Jr. Master Suite, with a king-size bed, ensuite bath with double sinks, glass shower and double pocket doors that open onto the ocean-viewing hallway. Bedroom 3 is ideal for the kids or friends, with two twin beds, ensuite bath, and double pocket doors to the hallway and sliding doors to the lanai.

The lanai is nestled under the eves of the mighty banyan tree and is furnished with an inviting daybed, bistro set and comfy lounge chairs. Take pleasure in enjoying an afternoon nap while listening to the sounds of the birds in the trees and ocean waves lapping at the shore.

Whale-watching season (November to March) brings the majestic Humpback whales who migrate here to birth their babies in the warm Hawaiian waters. The inviting shelter of Puako Bay makes it one of their favorite locales. Watch in amazement from your private lanai as these magnificent mammals breach out of the water right in front of your eyes! You can also enjoy these dazzling blue waters year-round with plenty of snorkeling, swimming, and sunbathing right outside your back door!
