Aloha,
I've been enjoying Puhi this past week as we're housesitting / cat sitting for friends that own in Villas of Puali. Our friends are fortune to have a unit down at the end of the road, which makes for a good deal of privacy. What's so great about this complex, and others in the area, is the proximity to Costco, Kukui Grove, WalMart, KMart, the movies and Duke's restaurant and their hula pie. If you've never tried hula pie, bring a friend, sit downstairs outside of the bar and have at it. Hula Pie is to die for if you like ice cream. It's a Duke's trademark dessert - vanilla ice cream on a chocolate cookie crust, liberally covered with whipped cream and drenched in hot fudge. Yes, you will need help eating this as the wedge of pie is more than ample.
Anyhow, I digress. Puhi is a great location, however, as I said the last time I was down here, as much fun as I have running around, I am a North Shore girl at heart and miss my home in just about a week's time, which is how long we are down here housesitting. On to your update:

I've been showing houses from Moloa'a to Haena this past week and want to mention a new listing located in Haena, across from Tunnel's beach with the unbelievable price of $975K. This house sits back on a flag lot so that although the address is on Kuhio Highway, the house is back far enough that road noise is not an issue. It's a great house where all you have to do is walk down the driveway, across the road and there's Tunnels. For those of you unfamiliar with Tunnels, it's a very popular snorkeling beach. If you've been looking for an affordable Haena home that doesn't need all kinds of work, call or email me about this great 2 bedroom 2 bath home that makes Haena living affordable. This house is not a vacation rental and cannot be converted to one if that is your goal. MLS 227671. That's my pick for this week. I have to mention my second pick which is on Kapaka in Princeville Ag: MLS 22786 for $995K. Call or email for details if you want a home on just over an acre that is nicely sized at 1,469 sqft.
