This was our second stay at Hale Wailani and it was even better than the first. The 2Papayas staff thoughtfully ensure every detail of your stay is perfect. The well-equipped kitchen has all the necessities. The pool is the icing on the cake, enjoyed by both adults and children alike. Thank you, owners, for sharing your home.

We love Hale Wailani. Perfect place for family vacation with enough space for everyone to enjoy Hawaii. Great location and well maintained. Mary was a great host and provided excellent service for our family. Beach is beautiful and close. Favorite restaurants-Canoe House and Merrimans.

My family and I (party of 7 adults) stayed at Hale Wailani for a total of 8 nights in June 2023. We could not have been happier with this amazing rental! It was just perfect for us. The home itself is incredibly well appointed with everything you could think of, including the sweetest welcome basket with local products (Kona coffee of course) and some lovely papayas. It was so thoughtful and had a great little note to greet us and start our stay. The beds were super comfortable, linens and all the surfaces sparkling clean, the kitchen had all the essentials and more including a Brita filter for daily hydration, filling all our Hydros and taking care of the earth with way less plastic. Loved that! There was ice and extra's throughout the entire home. The backyard....seriously....the pool and patio area...dreamy. Coffee in the morning...staring at the ocean! I can't wait to go back! And the walk to the beach! So quick and such a great little path. The beach had a fantastic view of the sunset every night and the snorkeling during the day was some of our best memories and favorite snorkeling of all time. We were able to see 4 different octopus! Unbelievable. Communicating with Mary was lovely, every conversation from her checking on us to make sure everything was as it should be to answering any of our questions. Mary is a gem and I would work with her anytime. Over-all, I would highly recommend and encourage anyone to rent this amazing place.

This is our favorite escape from Portland. It was the first time we had gone in the summer and it was at least as beautiful as Jan.-Feb. The place is superb, great design, great views. Mary at 2 Papayas and her staff are the best. We can't recommend this place any higher!

The house was well-stocked and roomy. We very much enjoyed the pool and lanai. The views were breathtaking. We also appreciated the use of pool toys.
I would definitely recommend this property for families

Our family of 10 enjoyed a week at Puako and were so sad to leave. The house had everything we needed, as well as a pool that the kids loved and a small beach with great snorkeling. Larger beaches were within a short driving distance.
The house is comfortable but not fussy and Mary the property manager was so great with communication. We hope to be back!

A very comfortable house nicely organized with all the amenities we could need. There was even a special play area for kids. We played every day in the pool and walked the short distance to the special beach. Great communication and support from Mary!

Hale Wailani is a wonderful vacation home for our family. It provided everything we need (besides food) and made us feel like at home. The house is very spacious, no matter inside or outside, downstairs or upstairs. Very short walk to the beach and enjoy the water without a big crowd. Mary, the manager, was very attentive and made sure we had everything we need. Check-in and check-out was a breeze. We will definitely come back again.

We had 10 people staying here, ranging in age from 2 to 74, and it was great....plenty of room. If you love to swim and/or snorkel, this property will fill the bill. We had lots of fun in the pool as a family, especially with our night swims before bed. The beach we walked to is only a 3 or 4 minute walk, has shade, turtles, and great snorkeling. This beach is not good for boogie boarding due to the rocks (the rocks help with the snorkeling, though), however there is a good boogie boarding beach just a few minutes away in the car. The manager was very responsive and pleasant to deal with. I highly recommend this house.

We rent a house in HI each summer as a family Christmas gift. Hale Wailani was a stretch for our budget but was worth the money. The house is clean, expertly maintained, spacious, and well equipped. The pool was enjoyed daily by every member of our party. A minor incident with the a/c in one of the bedrooms was remedied quickly by the professional and friendly property manager.

Spacious, well appointed home that surpassed my expectations. Everything we could have imagined needing/wanting was provided so... we wanted for nothing! A perfect vacation for me and my beau, my 3 little grandchildren and my daughter and son in law. I have rented from 2 Papayas before and will absolutely use them in the future. I can’t wait to come back. Thank you Mary and gang! 🙏

Excellent 2 week stay. Family of 4 stayed, short 3 minute walk to nice beach for snorkeling and hanging out. Close drive over to Hapuna which is a bigger beach for more snorkeling and boogie-boarding. The house has plenty of space, much more than needed for family of 4. It was really nicely appointed, beautiful artwork, all the amenities. 2Papayas were very attentive and friendly property managers.

Our stay in this property was amazing! In fact, it exceeded our expectations; posted pictures do not do justice to the home. The home is beautiful and spacious--very adequate for our family of twelve with an age range of 7-71. The home was clean and supplied with all the necessities needed for our week together. The children loved the large pool and quick access to the beach. While air conditioning is in all the bedrooms, it is not in the living areas of the home which made for some hot Hawaiian days, the only downside, and yet not a spoiler of our week.
Communication with the property manager was excellent with quick responses to our questions and concerns prior to our arrival and while there.
We highly recommend this home to other families considering a visit to the Big Island.
