Pool and lagoons were perfect. Great restaurants at local shopping area and
other next door resorts including Disney.

From booking to checking in to enjoying our stay, everything was fantastic. Our host, Michelle, was super great and answered all our questions. And the onsite person who checked us in, Ron, was the nicest, most informative, and very thorough person. The amenities in the condo were great - the location superb, and onsite staff very helpful. We needed a bigger parking space to accommodate our minivan rental, and they were able to relocate us to a space that worked for the vehicle. We absolutely love Rob with Royal Hawaiian Beach Services (the beach chair/umbrella rental). He made us feel like VIPs and went above and beyond to make our stay a memorable one. If we come back to Oahu, we will definitely stay in the same spot. Mahalo!

Our stay was overall appreciated. We enjoyed the view, the access to the beach and facilities, and the 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, modern kitchen, living room, lanai, and dining areas. The property manager was very kind and patient despite our travel challenges with the airline and hustle. Michelle our POC was very responsive. Tight parking space with unfriendly guidelines for families with special needs, but we worked it out with more communication with the building staff. Everyone tried to make our stay as comfortable. We will be returning to this beautiful property.

Our multi generational family of 7 celebrated our 60th wedding anniversary at the Ko ‘Olani Beach Villas this past week and had a great time.
The condo was comfortable and met our needs. The grounds and pools are wonderful, as was the view from the lanai. Weather was superb! All in all, a memorable family vacation.

The room and the grounds were spectacular. Enjoyed feeding the koi and had a nice time on the beach and at pool. Air conditioning in the room was not great or the dryer. It took a long time to dry anything.

Our ladies group found the property to be roomy and convenient to many of the islands’ many attractions. It was clean and ready for our visit when we arrived. The staff was pleasant and accommodating. The grounds are beautiful and directly on the beach. I would highly recommend the property.

Highly recommend staying in this lovely condo! The space is comfortable and well appointed, with great care obviously taken to accommodate any needs (cooking, pool, tons of beach chairs, toys, snorkels etc) you may have during your stay. The interior is updated and beds super comfortable

We loved the property and had a great time, we would definitely stay there again!!

This property happens to be on the best location on Oahu, Ko Olina. This area gets more sunshine and less rain than any other area on the Island. The 4 lagoons are the best place for being at the beach, especially for kids, and located away from the Mob that is Waikiki. Lots of shopping and great restaurants close by. You add this lovely property with its amenities, you get 10 of 10!

We picked this spot due to its location to the MAX line train, easy enough to take the train from the airport and then take the train into the city. Plus the neighborhood was cute and quiet! We had an issue when we first checked in, but the hosts were very quick to respond to us and resolved the issue immediately, so that was great.
The tiny home suited our needs and wasn't cramped at all for me and my partner, but we're both under 5'5" so it may be different for taller folk! The loft bed was fun.

Gorgeous property. Condo and grounds exceeded our expectations. More than enough room for our party of 7 with 2 rental cars! Great communication with owner. The minor inconveniences with the clothes dryer and over were discovered prior to booking. No surprises. Would stay again and will recommend to others.

This place was beyond what we expected, it was one of the nicest places we’ve ever stayed!! We loved having the full kitchen and grills to cook some of our meals. We were steps away from pools, the beach, fitness center and restaurants. Michelle, had so many things for us to use on the beach, including snorkel gear. She was so accommodating, the place was beautiful and clean, which made our vacation one of the best family trips we’ve had!! We would definitely stay here again!

We had three generations in our group from age 9 on up to 70+. Ko'Olina is a perfect locale and generally meets the needs of all. Centrally located-almost everything you need in walking distance. Beautiful beaches and pristine property. Being so close to the neighboring resorts is a huge plus with many accessible amenities and great restaurants. The coves are perfect for the littles - calm, blue waters and soft sand. The property is beautiful and well maintained. The condo is well stocked and accommodated all six of us easily. The owner provides a lot of extras we found nice to have -beach towels, toys and chairs, fans, extra pillow, games, plenty of dishes. Michelle was great to work with and the insight she provided is awesome. Overall, we couldn't have asked for much more. If I had to find a negative it would be that the property has very strict rules - not a problem except it limits kids having much fun in the pool. While the condo has a large dining table, the remaining indoor seating is limited and it is probably time to update at least the cushions. That said, beds are comfy, creature comforts are handy and sunsets are amazing. Don't second guess, book your stay here with confidence!

This vacation was bittersweet because we brought mom home. She passed away a year ago. She always wanted so her kids to vacation back home all together. We did it for her. The condo was absolutely perfect. Plenty of space for my family. Had everything we needed. My husband and I also renewed our vows. We did our first look at the property. The pics are wonderful. My kids enjoyed the beach and it was very safe. I would do it all again.

We LOVED our stay at Ko'Olina Beach Villas. The resort is meticulously maintained, the beach is gorgeous (clear water, clean sand, calm water), and the pools are beautiful and fun. The entire area of Ko'Olina is beautiful. We used the shopping/restaurant area across the street quite a few times - very convenient!
Unfortunately, we had quite a few issues with this particular unit though. The AC did not work our first few days of the trip. Initially the property manager came to look at it and he just said we had the thermostat set wrong. We knew that wasn't the case but didn't want to argue. After another day of not being able to cool the unit, we tried getting someone else to come look at it. We were told maintenance was coming earlier in the day so my husband waited to show them what was happening... only to waste over 2 hrs of potential beach time to have them tell us they wouldn't be able to make it. They finally showed up later that evening and we ended up having to cancel our evening plans due to the timing of it all. When the maintenance guy took apart the AC unit, it was clear that it had not been serviced in a LONG time. It was absolutely disgusting. I was worried the entire time we were there that we were still breathing in all that crud from the 2nd AC unit in the condo that I'm sure looks similar on the inside. Also, just so potential renters know - the owners also list a washer/dryer in their listing, but that isn't 100% accurate. Shortly before our trip we got an email from the owner stating that she is waiting for a new washer/dryer to be installed so there is a temporary set in the unit. Heads up that the temporary set only washes 2 towels at a time (for a family of 7 this was a nightmare), that you can't run the dryer at the same time as the washer or both units shut down, and the dryer doesn't dry anything. Since the listing stated there was a washer/dryer in the unit, I packed expecting to do laundry mid-week - big mistake! Also, the oven does not preheat well at all - it took 90 minutes to heat the oven to 375 to cook chicken nuggets for our kids. The owner did mention that this was an issue in all of the beach villas though due to how the resort is vented. Just heads up in case you were planning to do a bunch of cooking on vacation to save money.
With all of that said, we would stay at Ko'Olina Beach Villas again, but most likely will try to find a different unit that has been better maintained.

The condo we rented for our family vacation was absolutely beautiful! It was located in a property right next to the beach that had direct beach access as well as its own pools on site (3). This is a wonderful place for families as there is a kids pool and a koi pond that has fish feedings every day but if you don’t have kids, there is also a relaxation pool with no kids and a bar on site. Other kid friendly things about this property in particular include: bunk beds in one room, a pack and play, a small high chair seat, kid friendly bowls, cups and plates, a full kitchen, and a chest outdoors full of water toys and beach chairs. This condo is very spacious and allowed my childless brother to sleep on one side of the condo while we slept on the other side. The kitchen is stocked with everything you could need- pots and pans, plates, cups, a rice cooker, a toaster oven, range and oven. There are also BBQs downstairs that you can use to grill out. This property was well furnished as well with nice sheets and plenty of bedding, towels etc. it had 3 bedrooms as well as a washer dryer and dishwasher which we all used. We were here just over a week and it was perfect. Michelle the host met us on site but there is also a check in desk area. She was easy to communicate with and sent helpful tips in an email as well. The location is also nice. We walked next door to Disney Aulani, Monkeypod Kitchen, etc. Overall a wonderful experience and I definitely recommend!

We couldn’t be more happy with our stay! Pictures don’t do it justice! 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms was perfect for us. It was myself and husband, our two adult kids, and their bf/gf. Kitchen had everything you need to cook/bake/etc. I bought paperplates too so I didn’t have to always wash. Plenty of space for clothes and items. Each bathroom has a blow dryer and bedrooms have fans if need be. AC unit is not suppose to be below 73 degrees and it didn’t need be. Oven and stove top take awhile to heat up so plan accordingly. There is a toaster oven, two types of coffee pots, blender, microwave. Beach chairs, boogie boards, and snorkel gear as well. Small washer and dryer. Condo is on 3rd floor and is super close to elevator which is super close to pool. Property has two pools. One closer to the condo is quiet and more for adults. Other one is family friendly. Hot tubs and fitness center on site. Close to lagoon and walking trail. Site has a beach bar and even though drinks are $18+, they are very good! Three resorts sit next to property and each one has places to eat. Marina is walking distance and we took a sunset cruise. Across the way is a shopping center with coffee spots, ABC store, and restaurants. We ate at Monkeypod and it was delicious. When you reserve, owner will send you a list of fun things to do. Enjoy!

You can’t get better than this place. It has a resort feel with the 2 pools, the beautiful grounds, koi pond, beach bar, and beach access with the beautiful lagoon. But like a resort, it doesn’t have the constant crowds of people and noise. Its quiet and just the right amount of people.
The condo itself is perfect and had everything we needed. 3 spacious bedrooms, 3 great bathrooms, and the place stayed very cool at the 73 degrees. We never got hot or uncomfortable (and they have fans as well). We brought our family of four and we had so much room which is what makes it a vacation-I’m not spending a week in one room hotel with my two kids :). The beds are comfortable, the pillows and linens are lovely, the bath towels are soft and the place was very clean. The kitchen was great and had everything we needed. we saved so much money by making a lot of our own meals and had so much space to do so (and the BBQs by the pool were really nice and clean). The place had lots of beach towels and water/beach toys. The TVs were all smart so that made it easy for my kids to have some downtown and watch some of their shows. The balcony was lovely and spacious. I noticed some of the other units had very cheap lawn chairs or just a dining table. This place had really nice lounge/high quality furniture to relax on and look at the ocean. The owner, Michelle, was super wonderful and very responsive. Not that we needed much, but if you had a question, she was so quick to help and was super friendly.
We will absolutely be back here as there is no way not to have a wonderful vacation at this place.

Michelle was very quick to respond to any questions I had. I stayed here with my friend. It was very relaxing because we each had our own space. The condo was close to parking, the elevator and a short walk to throw the trash out. My favorite thing to do was sit on the lanai in the morning and evening and read. It was the most peaceful I've felt in a long time and just what I needed after dealing with all the limitations and restrictions of the last couple of years.

We just loved this property. The lagoon and beach were the prettiest we have ever been to. It was not crowded. We are a family of 10 and everyone had a great time and raved about the property.

We stayed there for a week in Feb/March 2022.
The property and condo are beautiful. It’s on a lagoon, so if you want to ride waves, this property doesn’t give you open beachfront. The condo has two AC units, but neither can be adjusted below 73 degrees without it freezing up. My husband didn’t realize this and moved it to 71 in the night and it never worked again for the rest of our stay. even after property manager was called and came out, so it got up to about 79 degrees on the master side. Also, the washer has a mind of its own, worked sometimes and didn’t work others. We have a large family, so the washer/dryer was one of the reasons we stayed here. The parking space provided is for a compact car, so a full size SUV, which we rented, won’t fit. We just parked in guest parking the rest of the time. Lastly, the large soaking tub in the master didn’t drain correctly, so while you can take a bath, it will take about an hour for it to drain.

We came with a 7, 5, and 2 year old in addition to my parents. In total, ages ranged 2-73 and we had such a great time. The condo was well cared for with nice dishes, amenities. Michelle the owner was very responsive and easy to get in touch with. The property was well cared for. We went to the pool/lagoon and beach each day. My only complaint is the cost of drinks at the pool bar ;) Also, a minor suggestion is to consider dark curtains in all bedrooms. Highly recommend

We had a wonderful 9-night stay in this condo. The owner, Michelle, was kind, generous, helpful, and great with communication, and it was nice to have direct contact with her rather than a property management company.
The condo is gorgeous, has a lovely partial ocean view, and was stocked with everything we needed. Would suggest having more cleaning supplies on hand, but we got by with what was there.
Parking was easy and convenient, even with a large SUV. The televisions are in need of an upgrade, which wasn’t a big deal for us but might be for some (no smart TVs). The pools are beautiful and quiet, and our young children loved playing in the lagoon. Overall, we had a great stay and are hoping to rent this space again next year. Thank you, Michelle!

Journey from Chicago to Honolulu to celebrate my 90-year-old mother’s birthday as well as our family Thanksgiving. The property was absolutely perfect. There’s nothing that didn’t meet our needs and the amenities were superior. We look forward to hopefully being blessed to return again someday.

We loved our stay. Plenty of great communication between property manager, check-in-out, and owner. Pretty property. Quiet area of Oahu.
The area is a nicer newer “resorty” location, with walkways and all the jazz if you’re into that. We were, and enjoyed the hot tubs, pools, walkways, and lagoons after days out exploring the island. I would not by any stretch say these lagoons compare to other better beaches if you want to do anything other than swim or chill beachside, but for those that do, these will fit the bill with susnsets aplenty.
My only complaint that I wish I’d known ahead of time was that the TV’s are not updated smart TV’s, so accessing a few current championships & recorded programs on a big screen like the teens had hoped for after a long day adventuring, wasn’t possible. I would say that’s an upgrade you need for the price. Maybe for tiny people to wind down, or grumpy grandpas and what have you etc.
Just FYI if you are temperature sensitive, this place can get really hot, and there are A/C winning/losing bedrooms, but plenty of fans provided that would easily take care of the problem. We were fine, as it was October & tradewinds were plentiful. The stores & restaurants right there are (obviously) overpriced, but convenient for an item or 2, and the owner Michelle gave plenty of great recommendations to avoid being stuck just there. Great location. Would return!

This condo was perfect. Our flight arrived at HNL about 10pm so we checked-in late. Front desk was ready and got all of our covid records confirmed and got us keys in record time! The condo was beautiful and so spacious for our group of 8. Three bathrooms was a dream come true!! When we couldn't figure out why the air conditioning wouldn't come on in the master, we contacted Nicole, who texted Michelle and Michelle messaged us back, all in less than 5 minutes! Make sure the sliders are closed properly! LOL
Ko'Olina is a great location! We loved the lagoon and enjoyed walking down the beach path to the local dining/shopping. We highly recommend Island Vintage Coffee as well as our new favorite Oahu accommodations!

We stayed here the first week of August 2021, and we would return in a heartbeat! The location was fabulous! We could walk down to the beach/lagoon at any time of the day and find a great place to relax with plenty of room to spread out. The condo looked exactly like it does in the pictures. We were there with 4 young adults (17-22 years), and they loved walking to the ABC store or Starbucks each morning. We had a rental vehicle, and within 15 minutes, you could be in Kapolei, where you could find Target, Costco, Safeway, Outback, Chili's, a variety of fast foods, and other local restaurants. It was also only 30 minutes from Honolulu. We saw how crowded Waikiki Beach was from Diamond Head, so we were very happy with our decision to stay in Ko Olina, where it was quiet and more secluded. We can't wait to return at some point!

If you are looking for an amazing place to stay that is away from the urban setting of Honolulu and Waikiki but close to many amenities - this is it. Very peaceful resort that is great for families who want to enjoy beach settings and tremendous sunsets.

This 3 bedroom unit was perfect for our family of 8. It was clean and the owner and property managers were easy to contact when we needed extra bed linens for the trundle bed. The location is heavenly. We always enjoy our time at the beach villas and this unit did not disappoint! We will be back.

This is my family’s all-time favorite place to stay. I’ve stayed in many VRBO rentals across the US and in Italy. I can usually tell what the property is like by the photos. True to the photos, this is a beautiful, spacious, comfortable condo. Sitting on the lanai, I watched the sunrise in the morning and the sunset in the evening. What you can’t see in the photos is the exceptional communication with the owner, Michelle. With the changing travel requirements to Hawaii, we corresponded a lot. And Michelle was always quick to reply, polite, and exceptionally helpful. I can’t express how important that was to me and my family. Also, the staff at the Beach Villas were exceptional. The AC stopped working in the master bedroom, and we had someone up to fix it within hours. It turned out that we hadn’t closed the door quite all the way, so it was easy to get working again. But I was so impressed at the quick and easy process of resolving that issue. As a renter, I understand that unforeseen things can happen. I just want to know that anything that comes up will be managed quickly and easily. Michelle’s condo at Ko Olina Beach villas was exceptional in every regard.
