I booked this unit mostly because of the abundance of 5 star reviews, but I cannot give it any more than 3. The location of this unit is outstanding. It’s right on the ocean front, and is tucked away in the corner of the Hallii Kai property, so it was very quiet. Views from the patio were awesome. Our problem with this unit was the cleanliness. Upon arriving we could immediately see the lack of effort put into cleaning this unit. There was a layer of dusk over everything. The refrigerator (a very nice Sub-Zero unit) was smeared all over the front, and had a dead fly inside. The bed sheets in the master bedroom didn’t feel like they had been washed since used by the previous occupants, and the bed had clearly been sprayed with Febreze in order to mask the odour. We soon discovered that there was only ONE roll of toilet paper in the entire unit. I checked in every cabinet and drawer in the condo and did not find another. Several rolls of paper towels and boxes of Kleenex, but only one partially used roll of toilet paper. With the high cost of renting this unit, one would not expect the need to run out to buy toilet paper.
I’m not sure if the responsibility for cleaning the unit is with the owner or the property manager, but it was clearly a “ten minute wipe-down”. Very disappointing considering that there was a $250.00 charge for cleaning. Although the location was excellent, the cleanliness of the unit was a real turnoff. We would never rent this unit again.

The unit was filthy and oven broken. Day before Thanksgiving we find out. Offered alternative unit by property mgmt but then they ghosted us. Nearly ruined our vacation. I had to fight the entire time and it was so dingy and filthy. They should be ashamed! I got a very small refund. We had to eat Thanksgiving at Macaroni Grill. Was told standards are too high! Ha! They Offered us cleaning service to tidy up and when we accepted they said it’s $250! Super unprofessional! Do yourself a favor keep looking! If I was the owner I would look for another property mgmt. also buy a new entry rug so gross! Ocean nice and amenities good but not worth the trouble to live in filth! It was such a battle they over promised and way under delivered.

Best location with awesome oceanfront view. Top of the line appliance’s. A few of the appliances needed service which we reported to property mgmt. Need to add some umbrellas at the pool. Overall great property would stay again.

We enjoyed our stay very much. The ocean view is spectacular and the condo is beautiful and well equipped. A special thank you to Kanoe and Rosa of Hawaii Luxury Real Estate (the unit's property manager) ~ their assistance with questions at the beginning of our stay was helpful and they were so swift to respond. Also, we enjoyed the restaurant at the Halii Kai complex. The food and drinks were great and the staff so very kind. We enjoyed a number of meals there enjoying the view and the live music. :)

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this condo. The views and the balcony are outstanding. The condo is modern and well-stocked. The pool/restaurant area is located close to this unit. We ate at the restaurant several times while the kids played in the pool, very convenient and fun. We attended the luau at the close by Marriott (great!) and played some golf on the nearby courses. I’d definitely recommend if you are looking for a resort-like stay.

Awesome experience in every way !!! A word to the wise - remember to make reservations if you're eating at the Ocean Club on property (which is convenient and a very nice setting) as they had limited availability :)

Property is in a well maintained gated neighborhood. The Home is very comfortable and perfect for two couples. Since the property is against the neighborhood boundaries its balcony is very private and protected from any wind or rain arriving from the South. The neighborhood pool and restaurant are very nice; just realize that you can NOT consume outside beverage or food while in the HOA Complex. Whales seem to be drawn to the shallower water directly In front of the property… sitting on this porch you’ll also find yourself watching porpoise grazing back and forth less than 1/4 mile away.. wonderful spot!

Loved this unit! A huge thank you to Mr. Mohammadi for sharing this great location and perfectly outfitted condo. The furniture on the Lani was the best we have enjoyed on our trips to Hawaii. We will be back in May! Thank you!

Beautiful condo overlooking the ocean. Good location for getting to nearby beaches and attractions. Pool is a two minute walk away. Great kitchen with everything you need. Also, condo is equipped with beach chairs, umbrella, beach towels, etc. Easy communication with property manager.

We have stayed in this unit several times. It's the best for seeing the whales. the grounds are lovely and the pool and on-site restaurant are handy and nice.

The condo is beautiful and the view is spectacular. We stayed in early December and saw whales almost every day. Bring binoculars. Check in was easy. The location is great for getting to the other side of the island and there are tons of things to do in the area. The only negative, and this is minor, were that the cabinet doors need to be tightened. Othhrrwise the condo was in good condition. We would absolutely stay again.
