As a family of 5, we often have to squeeze into spaces meant for 4. This condo was great - no squeezing! Table seats 6 and there were 4 beds. Great for our family, including two teens who like their space. We loved the abundance of towels, including neach towels.

Great space, basics were provided but not much above what you’d find get a hotel. They did have beach gear and some kitchen basics i.e. salt and pepper, oil. Nice and white with a good view. Would stay again.

I can’t say enough about how amazing this condo truly is. It was spotless upon arriving. The location is perfect with outstanding views. It was wonderful to use the pool and spa area after a day at the beach or exploring the island. The complex grounds were immaculate and so quiet at night. I would highly recommend this unit to anyone wanting to visit the Big Island of Hawaii. Thank You for allowing my family to stay in this true gem of a property.

We came here with our teen grandchildren, and teen daughter. It’s the best location because they can walk to the beach, the pool, they can walk to the two malls one that has Starbucks. Lots of place to eat and walking trails around with beautiful golf courses view. The whole area is beautifully landscaped. We saw turkeys, goats, Nanas, mongoose on the property and saw several turtles And whales from the beach. The whole community is like a resort and we felt very safe, letting our teams take takeoff on their own ! This is our favorite area to come when we come to the big island it’s beautiful!

Beautiful unit, great location. However 2 big detractors.The AC isnt strong enough or charged with coolant to comfortably and efficiently keep the unit at a comfortable temperature. We had to leave curtains drawn all day and have other loud fans on full to feel somewhat comfortable in the unit.This defeats the scenic view unless you are on the lanai. But on the lanai you had to deal with the loud operation of the AC unit running continuously trying to cool the unit. Takes away from sitting out quietly listening to birds, trying to visit with others, etc.Also our son discovered a sizeable dead cockroach followed by 2 live geckos under his bed in the upstairs loft. This can come with the tropics, but left us wondering how thorough the cleaning was before our stay.Parking is in ‘guest’ areas which is not conveniently located in front of unit. For the price of rental, usually am provided a dedicated parking spot close to a VRBO unit.Again the location is convenient and scenic, pool was enjoyable. Perhaps better unit maintenance and parking would push our rating to a 4 to 4.5 star.

We enjoyed the unit for 4 nights but wish we could’ve stayed longer. The unit was as listed and was fully stocked with everything we needed. Close to shopping and the best island beaches. Lovely complex and no problems with check in.

This 2 bedroom condo is outdated and uncomfortable. There is minimal soundproofing from noise above. The carpet was soiled and loose. The older rattan furniture was relatively clean but uncomfortable to sit in.The decor is rather tacky with many dusty plastic plants, outdated art and two very small TV'sThe stacked washer/dryer is very loud; likely due to being un-level. The lint catcher was full and matted lint was under the dryer. The master bathroom shower had low pressure and is very small. The swinging saloon style doors at the master bath entrance were loose and would not stay open. The patio door is warped making it difficult to close properly so the AC unit will work. We would not recommend this condo to anyone.

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at this property! The lanai overlooking the golf course was a very pleasant place to sit and watch golfers and also many different kinds of birds. We really appreciated the lovely welcome gift and the prompt attention to any questions we had. There was a lot of great information provided on attractions and things to do in the area. We would definitely stay here again.

Trenae and Paul’s place was great. This is our third stay in this complex and this is by far the best. Loved all the room to spread out and they had everything we needed for our 5 week stay. We’ll definitely be back.

We overall very happy with our stay here. The location and ground are beautiful. We really enjoyed the pool. The condo unit had a well stocked kitchen. It had a great supply of regular towels and beach towels which was very handy. Overall it was fairly clean but the floors and windows could have used a cleaning. We would stay here again

Very nice unit. It has everything you need! It's spacious and in good condition. The only concern we had is even though it is described as a ground floor unit, 2 of the 3 bedrooms are upstairs. We are 3 older ladies and had trouble with our luggage.
Linda N.
February 2025

It was nice and clean and in a good location. Walking distance to shops and restaurants. The one thing I didn't like is the AC can't be adjusted lower than 74 or it will shut off. I am a warm sleeper and this was not great for me. Its advertised as having AC should note that the ac will be limited. Pool area is smaller but when we went we were able to get the last seat available.. Unit is very nice and clean

Overall the unit is excellent. Clean and comfortable. The only negative was ability to enjoy the lanai for dinner. With ac units running on the lanai’s we missed sitting outside to enjoy quiet time.

Great property! The condo was well appointed and in a great location close to shops. The furniture was very comfortable and we enjoyed watching the golfers from the lanai in the afternoons. We would definitely consider a return visit.

Our stay was relaxing! Everything we needed was nearby - golf, hiking, swimming, snorkeling, shopping, and dining. The condo was in a quiet location and close to the pool and main entrance. We enjoyed the lanai morning and evening. The condo was as pictured and the beach chairs/towels were a bonus. We would definitely staying again!

This unit is wonderfully situated - close to the Kings' shops and the pool, workout room, and bbq area. It has a beautiful view of the 3rd green off the ground floor lanai. However, the musty smell hit us when we first walked in and we hoped it just needed some airing out. We had family staying in another unit and theirs did not have a smell. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was fully stocked. The place was clean enough, but a deep cleaning is needed. The hosts were excellent and their communication was great. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

We spent a week here and it was lovely! The condo is so welcoming and clean. Comes with many household things like a laundry basket, high chair, pack n play, outdoor and beach items! I wish we had looked in the outdoor closet to see the boogie boards and pool noodles before we went to the store. Also had leftover spices/dry goods which was very helpful. Even had leftover lotions/sunscreens for when we were in a pinch. The ground level was a MUST for us and it was such a great location and we spent many hours on the comfortable outdoor furniture looking at the gold course and watching the birds, geckos, and a sneaky mongoose. At night it’s amazing for star gazing! 10/10 would recommend this condo to anyone looking in the area!

We had an amazing family vacation to the Big Island and enjoyed our condo as per usual. We’ve rented at the Fairway Villas many times and you can’t beat the location. The condo was well equipped and very quiet.Communication with the owner was easy and the check in process was seamless. We would absolutely stay here again. Thanks for the great stay!

Proximity to airport, beaches, golf courses, shopping/grocery, restaurants, and easy drive to excursions and Hilo side of island. The condo was very clean, beds comfortable, lots of amenities.
