Phenomenal home. Awesome layout. Super clean. Great location. Wonderful private pool. On the North Course Mauna Lani Golf Course.

We just returned from a week long stay at Ka Milo 205. What a great house. It he everything you need and more. Korby, the project manager was great to work with and very responsive. The house is in great shape and really provided a wonderful stay! We would definitely stay here again. One additional note, we did rent a golf cart and found it extremely beneficial to access the entire Mauna Lani resort vs always needing a car.

We had a great vacation in this home! The home was very clean and well maintained, fully equipped with everything you might need. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, the view is great, and for us the proximity to the Fairmont for the Kona 70.3 race was perfect. The community pool and fitness center are nice, and the local beach club was a favorite. Perfect all around!!!

When first approaching the house, we were impressed with the size and way the home looked. However, upon entering the home and checking out everything, we were a little disappointed with the cleanliness of the home as well as the fridge.We found a dead roach in the master bathroom. Not sure how long it was dead but it should have been cleaned up by the cleaning crew. The pix of the pool were a little deceiving. The website should be updated - not only to reflect the small size of the pool but also the fact that guests can no longer keep the sliding doors open due to the new laws /not sure guests would want to keep the doors open due to bugs at night.Every day there were tiny silver fish in the master bath& silver fish and roly poly bugs in the other bathrms.The main fridge was down so there was a 2nd fridge in the kitchn which was fine but the ice machine was broken & the additional ice machine provided never worked properly - we called for service and it was "fixed" but we had to tend to it in order to get ice. There were no bath mats in any of the bathrms so we all ended up using a towel for the floor when getting out of the shower. The gate to the entrance needs to be fixed as it's probably too heavy for the brackets - which I discovered after the first couple of days trying to open the gate with one hand and pinching my fingers. One of the bedrooms had bedding stuffed into the dresser (2 of the drawers) so there wasn't enough room for personal belongings.

Upon arrival the check in process was extremely smooth and easy. The upstairs was very spacious and open. The lanai was very large with an outdoor bbq that we used several times. All of the bedrooms were very spacious, clean and well organized. The pool(s) we’re a short walk from the house along with the gym. There is also a nice outdoor area for entertaining at the recreation area.
My family and I thoroughly enjoyed this home.
Thank you.
This home is well maintained,

This is our second time staying at this house and we just love it! It's so spacious and the amenities inside (e.g., layout and appliances) and outside (e.g., access to private beach, and super close rec center and trash dumpsters) the house are top notch. The Shiwotas are exceptional hosts and we appreciate them a lot!

We came with all 19 of us, children and grandchildren, and rented two homes. It was absolutely awesome! Both homes are the same floor plan, very family friendly, and just a four minute walk between them! The homes are so well prepared, portable cribs, high chairs, cookware, spices, the sand castle villa Even has a motorized spit on the grill to roast pineapple (it was delicious)! We found out on our first day, a Sunday, that the washing machine wasn’t working, so I texted the management company, and they sent someone out that day. They said the machine couldn’t be fixed, and said they would replace it asap and in the meantime asked if we needed access to an empty property to use theirs. The washer was replaced the next morning. The management company responded quickly to every question or request. The grounds are beautiful, the pools are great, the mauna lani beach is perfect for the little kids, and awesome for snorkelers-we saw sharks, eels, octopus…it was really some of the best and easiest snorkeling I’ve done in Hawaii! And for the bigger kids, Hapuna beach is perfect for boogie boarding and body surfing! Close to shops and car from crowds and downtown! We’re already figuring out when we can come back, and we will 100% be booking these homes again!

And for the older kids, Hapuna beach is just a few minutes away, great for boogie boarding, body surfing, and jumping in the waves! Close to shopping and restaurants, far from the noise and crowds of downtown! We loved our stay and can’t wait to book again!

What an amazing house and neighborhood. The house had ever amenity you could thing of (including recreation material). Very well stocked. We were able to enjoy family meals inside and out. Neighborhood was quiet and close to the recreation center and beach access. We enjoyed walks to the beach in the morning, as well as biking to the store. The property manager was in communication, although we did not need to access them. Highly, highly recommend this house. The two owner suites were perfect. We were very happy with our stay.

After four days at White Coral we wished we could stay on. So many pluses to this house. Meticulously clean. Wonderful outdoor spaces. Short walk to their pool and spa area. Beautiful beach at the Mauna Lani beach club with a good restaurant right there. Plenty of water toys, beach towels, bikes. Great bird song all day long. Can’t recommend this place more highly. We rent a lot of vacation homes and this one is right at the top of our list. One slight nitpick: very slow internet. But what are you doing on the internet when there’s so much to enjoy on the Big Island??

Our week staying Sweet Heaven was really great! The house is a stones throw away from the pool and fitness facilities which was prime with two young kiddos. The open upstairs - kitchen, dining, living room - that opens up to the patio was great for all of us to spend time together. Also, the access to the beach club is fabulous. Management was easy to contact if needed with any questions and they touched base ahead of check-in to make sure I had all of the necessary information and to answer any questions I may have had.

We were a family of 5 children (age 3-12) and 6 adults that stayed here. The house was perfect for us in that everyone was able to sleep in a room, thus leaving the whole living area to enjoy at all times. The Lanai was a real treat to eat meals and we made great use of the well stocked kitchen and Lanai BBQ. The kids were able to swim in the very warm house pool, as well as the large resort pool which was just a short walk away. The house came well supplied with spare fins, snorkel equipment, bikes, and beach supplies for the excellent snorkeling at Mauna Lani beach. Communication with the host was easy, responsive, and convenient and they were able to accommodate our late check-out request, and since some had flights that didn't leave until 10pm, it was very much appreciated. For our families purposes, we could not have asked for a more ideal spot.

This was exactly what we were looking for in a rental property. We had a total of 8 in our party, 6 adults and 2 children. There was more than enough room for all of us to be comfortable in our own space. There was also a lot to do. Beautiful beaches nearby, bikes to ride around, grocery store right down the road, and bigger pools/jacuzzis to choose from. There's really no need to leave the house because it has everything you need.

The property was amazing. It accommodated all 12 of us perfectly! This trip to big island was by far one of our best trips ever, we had my daughter who was 9, two 17 yr Olds, and 9 adults. The house is huge, No one got in each other's ways, the pool was cleaned, the kids enjoyed the bikes, gym, onsite beach, and pool while the adults enjoyed the the deck upstairs, in which we spent many evening bbqing, playing cards, and enjoying adult drinks. The only down fall (which was taken care immediately) there were only 4 wash cloths originally for a party of 12 and one propane tank was missing. Please be advised the parking in the drive way is very short and very narrow, but do not let these small discrepancies turn you away from this amazing home.

We were beyond pleased with this property. The very best VRBO I’ve ever rented. It was everything we hoped for and more. We wanted for nothing. All supplies we needed for a 1 year old and a 3 and 4 year old. The kitchen was extremely well stocked with various small appliances, spices, aluminum foil, Saran wrap etc etc. There were 7 ( I think ) bikes in the garage, various sizes with helmets provided. Life jackets for children were also for our use. Also beach toys.
The Lanai was a piece of heaven on earth. So relaxing and restful. We used the BBQ almost every day.
The property is surrounded with beautiful plants, flowers and trees. Incredible.
The pool and recreation area was exceptional our grandchildren absolutely loved it.
A short drive to the various beaches but not a problem.
I’ve rented in this general area several times but this was simply the best.
A big thank you and kudos to the owners of this property for thinking of everything. We did not want to leave and our little ones shed tears.
Thank you. An amazing escape from the 🇨🇦 winter.

Overall it was a great stay! Property was a little dirty upon arrival but nothing major. We got used to have rentals with at least bare minimum in the kitchen (salt, pepper, oil) but that’s not a big deal as we had to shop for food anyways. Some things could be improved on such as making sure the grill is ready for use and some of the showers pressure/heat come and go. Otherwise the property was great for our large family vacation. Pool and hot tub were right across the road as well, making it easy to walk over and enjoy. Communication was super easy and the location was great as well!

Our family of 6 stayed at Sweet Paradise in February, 2023; we found it an excellent accommodation. The layout of the house gave everybody space, the lanai was perfect for outside dining, and the resort's location (outside the urban area) made it easy to go off to explore more off-the-beaten-track attractions. Sweet Pardise was by far and away our group's favourite spot while we were in Hawaii.

The kitchen is a dream and fully stocked for anything you want to make. I would sit out on the lanai in the mornings & evenings, listening to all the birds. The neighborhood is so quiet & peaceful.
Close to Shops at Mauna Lani. We loved the coffee shop, Foodland and the Island Hopper Taproom. We visited 49 Black Sand Beach, Mauna Lani Beach Club, and Waialea Beach. It was nice to use the beach chairs, towel, cooler and boogie boards provided at the house. We can’t wait to visit again.

The Coral Reef property was better than we could imagine. Our family of 8 shared the house and everyone was so pleased that each room had their own private bathroom including an extra half bath. The house was clean and well maintained. The amenities such as beach toys/chairs worked out perfectly for our trips to the private beach as well as a public beach. Once we figured out how to operate the slider door alarm, we were good to go. The pool and outside area were perfect for relaxing. However, we could not figure out how to open the door which led to the outside shower. The Ohana suite gave nice privacy but when you use the open shower be prepared for the water to cover most of the bathroom floor as the drainage area does not dip down to remove the water. Other than that, we highly recommend this place and would definitely consider returning!

Lots of space, well maintained home and well-stocked kitchen. Outdoor space was wonderful, including pool, hot tub, golf course view, Weber Genesis grill and large dining table. Set up was great for our family, and it was a very short walk to the community pool (including a separate lap pool for adults, outdoor hot tubs, workout center, and large free form pool for all). We appreciated having access to the parking area at the Mauna Lani Beach Club. Any time we had questions, or concerns the property manager responded promptly. Only wish we could have had an earlier check-in as our flight was changed for an early arrival! Would definitely rent this house again for a family vacation to Hawaii and will recommend it to friends who may be planning to go.

This is a spectacular property. We had stayed in this resort previously but not this property. It has everything we would ever need. It has a private pool and hot tub- its a half block from the community pool and workout centre- and 20 minutes to any of 3 great beaches.
There were 10 of our family celebrating our 70th birthdays. The kids were happy in the private pool or at the community pool.
Grandma and Grandpa enjoyed the Ohana out front which gave lots of privacy.
The garage was chocked full of all the gear we needed to head to the beaches.

We just checked out of KaMilo 111 and already miss it! This gated community is one of the best we’ve stayed at here in Mauna Lani! The house is conveniently located just inside the gate, not too far from the pool. If we needed groceries or snacks, we could run right down to Foodland. In the evenings, we’d catch the sunset at nearby Holoholokai Beach/Petroglyph Park. If you’re one that likes to hang out at the pool or gym, you’re in luck because this community has really great options! There are 2 pools (quiet pool for adults and a separate family pool) and a hot tub, as well as a really large gym with great equipment!
We had 2 couples and 2 kids staying in the house and it fit everyone very comfortably. The layout was perfect because each family could have their own half of the house. It came with beach gear, a golf cart (loved this!), and a lovely lanai where we got to hang out in the evenings. And the kitchen came fully stocked with everything we could have needed.
Another big plus was how easy it was to communicate with the property manager, Kai. He was always just a text or phone call away if we needed him.
Overall, we loved our stay at this property, and would stay here again. Hopefully everyone else loves their stay here just as much as we did!

I don't even know where to begin as everything was just so amazing.
We were a group of 2 families, 4 adults and 3 teens. The house fit our needs perfectly, everyone had their own private space and we also had a lovely space to come together for meals or just gather as a group. The beds were comfortable and everthing was perfectly clean. The kitchen was well stocked and we never felt like we were missing anything.
The house also had ample beach chairs, umbrellas, toys, boogie boards, bikes and beach towels. This is prob. the best stocked VRBO I have ever stayed in.
Ka Milo is really beautiful, everyone is respectful and friendly. I can only imagine how many hours is spent on landscaping, as it's gorgeous. The pool area is lovely and we found it to be quite quiet, even during spring break travel.
The Beach Club at Mauna Lani is a real bonus, we enjoyed it so very much.
We ended up renting a golf cart which was very convenient to get around Mauna Lani, we made trips to all the other resorts (Fairmont, Auberge Mauna Lani), The Shops at Mauna Lani, 49 Black Sand Beach, the petroglyph park, the historic park and the Mauna Lani Beach Club.
We had excellent communications from Adrian and his parents before and during our stay. A couple of unavoidable hiccups were solved quickly and effectively which was greatly appreciated.
Thanks again for sharing your piece of paradise with us, I would recommend it to anyone and would love to come back someday.

Great place for midsize extended family. Safe, quiet and close to beaches, pools and groceries. It had baby/toddler gear and beach gear. We would stay again! Only drawback- 30-40 minutes from sea activities in Kona but that didn't stop us! Quick drive north to mountain hiking as well.

Great area, beautiful neighborhood, very nice beach, pool was nice and close for walking. The beds were very comfortable and bedrooms very spacious. Lovely two master bedrooms. Air conditioning was a big plus! Kitchen was well stocked with all essentials for cooking and grilling. Even had a coffee grinder and big rice cooker. Nice little back yard and lenai to enjoy. The garage had many beach essentials which were great for the kids and adults. There are bikes also but one bike had a flat tire.
So the only problems arose due to the really windy weather. We tried going to the community beach but left rather quickly due to sand flying into our eyes and the baby wasn't enjoying the sand in her face either. I also wasn't expecting to have to drive as far as we had to to get to our beach. I don't think I would have ridden the bikes that far either. But it would have been a really pleasant beach if the weather would have cooperated. Can we have a do-over??😏 So we ended having to do more sightseeing than staying to enjoy the community pool and beach. We found out that Kona's weather is calmer than this area so we ended up driving to some beaches in Kona. That was really too bad because this area's beaches are SO much nicer.
The pool was nice even though a bit cold but the hot tub was very nasty looking (needed cleaning desperately). I didn't even want to go into that.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful tropical home with our family. If it weren't for the weather it would have been an absolutely perfect vacation. Aloha!

Stayed here with my family (10 people) and it was great... perfect location to foodland, sidewalks, beaches, etc... We had a slight bathroom issue and they paid extra to have someone there next day to fix. Great service!

This home is beautiful and has everything you need. The kitchen is well stocked. Lots of board games if the weather gets bad. All the outdoor gear you could want (coolers, bikes, snorkeling gear, chairs, etc). The property is in a great location away from all the hustle and bustle of town. Private beach access, gym, and pool. Everything you need is close by. It’s also in a great location to check out some beaches that aren’t as crowded as the ones closer to Kona. I highly recommend.

We had an amazing stay - 2 families with 5 kids ages 1-8. The house is well equipped to handle meals and sleeping accomodations.master bedrooms are very large. The lanai is perfect for every meal and downtime relaxing with lush surroundings. The pool was a short walk, ocean and groceries a short drive. The private beach was great and beach 49 was well worth the $20/car to park and play for a morning. We were in Hawaii during several days of high surf, wind and/or rain so even with not "perfect" Hawaii conditions - we had a great time exploring and were so happy to call this rental "home" for the week. Thank you for a lovely stay!

Overall, a great time. There were just a few things that stood out. The first was the off-white/white sofa, which was not very clean and had visible stains from everyday wear. A thorough cleanup of the upholstery would go a long way and make this space even more inviting. Finally, the listing does not mention it, but the back door to the pool may not be left open due to county/city regulations. This information is shared after you have booked, etc., and is also noted in the binder provided to you at the rental. I know it's out of their control, but it would have been nice to know before because it would help manage expectations. Apart from those two minor points, the stay was pretty enjoyable for me and my family. We would definitely stay again.

Fantastic house that was perfect for our group. Kitchen was well equipped and it was great for our large family.
We were disappointed by the community pool that was unheated and too cold except at the hottest time of day. It was also full of tree debris and dirt from storms the week before that was a further deterrent from getting in.
Apart from the pool, we had no complaints and would stay in the house again.

All was good. Only issue was a missing strainer basket plug for the kitchen sink. A bit more silverware would be good.

This house exceeded our expectations. It is actually better than the listing. We have had the opposite happen many times. This was the most well provisioned house we have ever stayed in. They had everything for the kitchen from aluminum foil to a rolling pin and whisk. The beach supplies were also abundant. We enjoyed the private beach and club access that is included with the property. This property is a gem and I highly recommend.

We did our first family trip with my sibling and their kids, and this property was perfect. Plenty of beach toys available and in a great location close to multiple nice beaches, restaurants and shops.

We loved the property - layout (especially the guest cottage) was a great layout for 4 couple. Guessing they had just done spraying and we had a problem with dead and living small bugs in the carpets of the bedrooms. Never did get the property management to do anything about it, but there was a vacuum, so we took care of it. Other than that, really terrific - thank you!

The place was very comfortable, with plenty of 'stuff' for all concerned. It was great for grandparents upstairs on the main floor and for the kids and grandkids downstairs.

A beautiful location to have a family reunion. The home is gorgeous and setting fabulous. Pictures don’t do it justice with privacy and territorial views. Access to pool and beach club a plus. An extra key for pool would be helpful. Parking only three cars max. Extra bath towels would be nice in bedrooms. No hand towels and wash rags. Any need handled expeditiously. Unit has everything you need for a wonderful stay. Highly recommend
