For many years, this land was owned by the Parker Ranch. The agricultural history of the land comes through in present day zoning restrictions.

And it provides an opportunity for homeowners to have their own horses on their estate. These home sites are located at the northwest tip of the Big Island of Hawaii in a unique microclimate.

Big Island Overview More a sensual experience than a geological location the Big Island of Hawaii embraces more than 4000 square miles. It offers the most attractions, diversions and pleasures than all the other islands combined, and the scenic wonders and historical marvels seem endless. Gentle trade winds and a perpetually blue sky combine to create a June climate that extends throughout the year. There are some who claim the Kohala Coast boasts the finest weather in the northern hemisphere. Year round temperatures measure an average 78 degrees. Tucked into the northwest portion of the island, the Ranch at Puakea is one of its loveliest spots. This special stretch of land known as the Kohala Coast has been aptly described as the Gold Coast of the Big Island. Here on a stretch of ocean washed coast are some of the most palatial complexes on earth. World class destination beach resorts of Mauna Kea Beach Resort Hotel, Hilton Waikoloa, Mauna Lani Bay Resort, Hualalai Four Seasons, and Kona Village. You can ski on the Big Island or immerse yourself in a primitive rain forest. Walk on beaches that are sparkling white, black or even green and wander upon acre and acre of some of the worlds most beautiful and colorful flowers. Everywhere on Hawaii a rainbow riot of tints and views prevail. Hawaii has it all and it is accessible from the Ranch at Puakea. Tourism, sugar cane, pineapple, macadamia nut, orchids, roses, and all the varieties of anthuriam flowers are the principal industries of the island of Hawaii. Cattle ranching thrives as do coffee plantations. World famous Kona coffee originates on the big island. However it is tourism that dominates the future of the Kohala Coast. Much of the thrust of this booming market activity has been affluent visitors who seek the amenities of the quality resorts. Only 20 minutes from the quiet and privacy of the Ranch at Puakea, they offer world class golf, fishing, fine dining, and entertainment. Inside the Ranch at Puakea the 13 twenty plus acre estates are officially designated for agriculture, thus there will always be space to live and relax with view unobstructed by tall buildings. Adjoining the Ranch at Puakea is the vast Parker Ranch, once the largest privately owned cattle ranches in America sprawling over 275,000 acres of rolling pasture land that has been home to up to 50,000 mother cows. This area is the home of the Paniolo, the Hawaiian version of the wild west cowboy. Today the colorful Kohala Cowboys are still known for their bright panchos, gaily colored bandanas, and floppy brimmed hats. In the center of the Parker Ranch only a short drive from the Ranch at Puakea Bay is the charming town of Waimea which has a surprisingly complete shopping center, two world famous private preparatory schools and hosts symphony performances.
The Ranch at Puakea is splendidly isolated by ocean, mountains and agricultural zoning, yet only a mere 20 minute drive brings you to the resort hotels that rank among the finest in the world where their world class facilities offer golf, tennis, fine dining, and quality entertainment. North of the Ranch is a string of villages most notably Hawi and Kapaau which provide essential services such as markets, shops, and banks. Other shopping is available down the road in Kona. The neighborhood is a picturesque microcosm of native Hawaii. King Kamameha the first conqueror and unifier of the islands was born here. Fortytwo miles to the south is Keahole Airport in Kailua-Kona which provides frequent inter-island flights as well as direct service to the mainland. In the melodious Hawaiian language Puakea rolls off the tongue. Its meaning is loosely defined as a white flower or the pink color of the clouds at sunset. The Ranch comprises 293 acres of beautiful green pasture land that starts 500 feet above sea level and sweeps down to the picturesque shoreline. Most property on Hawaii is available only on a lease basis. The Ranch at Puakea however is offered in fee simple ownership. Benefits of fee simple ownership are underlined by the fact that 49% of the Hawaiian Island property is Federal or State owned, and 47% is in vast pasture land and large land holdings from which small segments are released from time to time. This makes the 4% that remains for public ownership unusually valuable. Blessedly sighted on the northwest portion of the Big Island, the Ranch at Puakea lies between the picturesque Kohala Mountains and the sapphire blue of the Pacific. Its gentle slopes towards the ocean grants each individual estate a variety of lovely view vistas mountains to the east and panorama of the sea to the west with the islands of Maui, Lanai and tiny Koolawe looming like mystical paintings. The Ranch at Puakea is the result of enthusiasm and passion for two Aspen, Colorado natives desiring to create a Hawaiian paradise for themselves. A select few will share this uniquely special part of old Hawaii. Sunset View from Akoni Pule Highwy for Ranch at Puakea
