** The space:
Nestled on a peaceful half acre near the little town of Naʻalehu, Palaoa House is a comfortable homebase from which you can explore the entire island!
Inside, you’ll find a well-stocked kitchen with all the basics (coffee, tea, salt, pepper, oils, and spices) and everything you need to cook and relax.
Two queen sized beds with fresh linens offer a comfortable night’s sleep.
Fast WiFi, local books, games, a TV with Roku, a record player with Bluetooth speaker, and binoculars for scanning the coastline make it easy to settle in.
Outside, the spacious covered lanai invites you to relax, grill dinner, and take in the sweeping ocean views.
Seasonally, you’ll find bananas, guavas, mangoes, and papayas growing on the property - feel free to enjoy what’s ripe. Keep an eye out for our resident ʻIo, the native Hawaiian hawk.
Slow down, skip the crowds, plot your adventures, and soak in island life at Palaoa House!

"Great spot to immerse yourself in island life! The view from the lanai over the garden and down to the ocean is unbeatable. Just sitting there, listening to the birds or gazing at the stunning starlit sky was amazing. Our only regret was having to leave. Mahalo, Josh, for sharing your beautiful space with us!"

"Best host ever with an Amazing home. Josh was great to work with and went above and beyond to create an amazing experience for my mother and myself on her first trip to islands to celebrate her birthday. From leaving candles for birthday suprise! To just being there for all aspects of the stay ! Would definitely recommend his property to any one wanting a more secluded private experience away from the crowds!"
