Found along the sun-drenched coastline of Kamuela-Waimea lies the unique and desirable Puako Beach Lots community, featuring homes built from the 1950s to the present. Positioned between the
Mauna Kea and
Mauna Lani Resorts, Puako offers a distinct and more intimate residential experience, characterized by its stunning oceanfront setting and classic Hawaiian ambiance.
This area was first utilized by Native Hawaiians, potentially thousands strong, who primarily farmed and fished. The landscape and economy were dramatically reshaped by the creation of the
Parker Ranch in 1815, which would also form the famous Paniolo (Hawaiian Cowboy) culture. Though primarily inland, the Ranch once reached the coastline where they brought cattle to be shipped.
The development of coastal communities like Puako represents the evolution of this region, balancing rich history with desirable modern resort and residential living.
