Thanksgiving in Hawaii
Hale L’ea is a beautiful, well-equipped home on a quiet residential street with walkable access to rocky, not sandy beaches. It was perfect for our little family reunion.

Perfect relaxation retreat
This property is a great home away from home. It was well equipped with all the necessities- bbq, beach chairs, kitchen ware, bathroom amenities, etc. The lanai was peaceful and the ceiling fans and air conditioners worked perfectly. Location to the shoreline was across the street and a few houses over - super easy for watching the sunsets each night. Highly recommend this home and we would definitely stay there again.

Perfection in Puako
Our family loved our time at the house! The house was bright and clean and provided plenty of space for the 6 of us. When we weren’t out enjoying the water and the beauty, we LOVED hanging out on the front deck for games, cocktails and all our meals. We would definitely stay here again.

Vacation in paradise
Awesome stay in a place that is well maintained and managed. The location is right in the middle of everything. We could not have asked for a more relaxing or fun way to disconnect from day to day life. A true vacation.
