We stayed at this rental for almost 3 weeks and loved the location. The layout of the house was perfect for our large group and was spacious enough that we felt we all had personal space.There were plenty of towels and bedding and the house was well equipped. The only complaints were that the house could use a little TLC with the walls being painted and the carpet and furniture cleaned. Also, the patio furniture could have been more comfortable and was minimal. Knives in the kitchen could be upgraded as well as they were very dull.The pool and the fitness facilities were top notch and we loved the area. Great place for a large group.

This was hands down our favorite property on any of the islands we stayed on. We had 2 grandparents and they were able to easily access the first floor bedroom. We had an 18 month and a 4 year old with their own room. They also had a baby gate and pack n play available. 3 other adults with ample space for everyone. Lots of kitchen essentials, the grill worked perfectly and the house was stunning. They had a ton of beach gear and toys and the golf cart to putter around on was fun for everyone. Burt was by far the most attentive and responsive host during any of our stays. Will be here again. of

This home was perfect for our three generation family. It was the best equipped kitchen I have ever experienced. You could prepare and cook a large family thanksgiving or celebratory dinner. Every tool I needed it had. It even had a salad spinner so the owners definitely use it themselves.Sports equipment for all ages in garage, bikes, boards, helmets, life vests, cooler, etc etc.

We were pleasantly surprised to find the house completely stocked with plenty of beach gear including chairs, coolers, snorkeling gear, and boogie boards. The kitchen had all of the appliances we could’ve wanted and there was plenty of extra bedding. Everything was exactly as described in the listing and everything we could’ve wanted. Highly recommend this as a rental.

Our home was well appointed and set up wonderfully for our family. We had four adults and four children, with age ranges from 3 to 12..The master upstairs, the main floor was separate from the downstairs other three bedrooms, which was perfect for us grandparents!!!The pool and clubhouse were wonderful, and the private beach was super safe for the little ones!The property management was super helpful, very engaged, and provided wonderful customer service:)I will definitely be a repeat customer when we are ready to travel again with family!

This property was great. The kitchen has a great open design to accommodate larger groups. Everything we needed was at the condo. The condo was nice and close to the pool.The pool could have been a little warmer as it kept us from wanting to swim in the evenings.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The home was beautiful! Very clean, in great condition, well-stocked, safe and gorgeous neighborhood. The home had all the essentials you would need, including shampoo/conditioner, plenty of toilet paper and paper towels, dish soap, dishwasher soap and laundry detergent. The neighborhood pools/hot tubs were so nice, a great way to end a day at the beach. The best sandy beaches on the island are only five to ten minute drives away. The neighborhood had plenty of beautiful walking trails fit for those with little ones. The property manager was very accommodating of us and our not so ideal travel schedule. Highly recommend!

Perfect place for a large family gathering. We had a group of 10 adults, and there were beds for everyone as well as plenty of space for people to spread out. The pool complex was really nice and just a few minutes walk away. The private beach is beautiful but it is a bit difficult to get a large group there as there is only one pass for the parking lot.
Scott K.
January 2025

Great house with a lot of room! Clean and well supplied. Once we got the complex figured out,it was easy to get around.Enjoyed the bikes but cannot take them to the beach. There is no where to leave them. We didn’t like the fact we couldn’t turn the thermostat down below 72. This was adequate for the bottom half of house but not on top.

January 2025

Everything was wonderful. The only problem was the barbecue grill was not working properly. When we close the lid, it made a loud explosion. So we weren’t able to use it after the very first night. I reported it to maintenance on the last day.

Our stay was wonderful! The host was extremely kind, responsive, and accessible, which made the entire experience seamless. The property was beautiful—clean, well-maintained, and perfectly located on a private beach with shopping close by. We also appreciated having access to the golf cart, which made trips to the beach and shops so much easier. Overall, this property exceeded our expectations, and we would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway! We hope to come back!!

Good townhouse with very thin floor and bad acoustics, obviously rented a lot - not a huge attention to detail and inflexible management on items such as check out - given steep Xmas pricing, I expected a little more from house. Also bbq is old and worked so so
Ruggero B.

Property was as good as advertised. Everything we needed was present on the property, which enhanced our stay. Property was clean and well maintained. Extras like spices, trash bags, coolers, beach chairs made our stay all that much better. Highly recommend this property for your visit to the big island.

Great view and location. Barbecue was neglected. Some cookware needed updating. Great house for a family of ten. Would gladly rent it again.

My expectations were exceeded by this exceptional property, and I would definitely rent again. We had everything we needed for an amazing vacation. From the well appointed kitchen to the look and feel of the decor, we were treated to a stay that was luxurious with the comfort of home. The outdoor lanais offered spectacular views at sunrise and all throughout the day of the adjacent golf course. We took joy in watching the golfers (some good, others less so!) and the periodic families of goats roaming through that would help “cut” the grass. The availability of beach equipment, bikes, and towels meant we had nothing to worry about but to load up the car for our adventures. The community pool was a 5 minute walk away and was clean, spacious, and fun for the entire family. The workout facility in the community area was also a nice perk and had ample space and equipment. It was clear that many guests and residents used both the pool and workout facility, and both were well maintained.The property management company was extremely communicative and very responsive to any requests we had of them. They sent clear and detailed check-in information well in advance of our trip and texted to confirm we had all of the necessary details.Within a 5 minute drive was a local grocery store that served our needs well, and within a 15 minute drive was the Waikoloa Beach Resort area with additional grocery options, shopping, and dining.

We have been staying in the Mauna Lani Area for over 10 years. We have stayed in the Kamilo and villages neighborhoods. This property was a fantastic selection based on the house and all of the amenities..We have stayed at most of the rentals in the area and this house was by far the cleanest and most organized. We enjoyed every moment staying in this house.We would highly recommend this property.

We stayed 5 nights and having a condo was great. Did not expect having a private pool in the backyard would be that great since there’s another pool for everyone just steps away. But we spent. Lot of time relaxing in the backyard.

My family of 7 adults and 4 children stayed here and had a wonderful time. The house is beautiful, has all of the amenities advertised, and is close to the beach, scuba docks, and other activities on the Kona side.

This was our third stay at this lovely home in the Ka Milo complex of the Mauna Lani area.Our grandchildren have loved coming back to it year after year. Between the open space great room, balcony overlooking Mauna Kea, well appointed kitchen, spotless cleaning, access to pool and beaches at Mauna Lani and Fairmont it was a perfect location and home for a family holiday.Many thanks to Jeannie and the other owners for providing so many wonderful memories to our families.

Brought 3 adult kids and a grand baby for 16 days. The house was a great fit for us. It is spacious and well equipped in kitchen, chairs for going to beach. Pool was great and the deck facing north was perfect for us as it did not get too much sunsun.

Perfect home for our family vacation in lovely Mauna Lani! This was our second stay here. Highly recommend. Home was clean and modern with all the amenities we needed for a fun time on the Big Island! Thank you!

This unit in KaMilo is well located close to the central pool. Communication with the property management company was excellent. They were very professional and always available. The house has so much potential, but you can tell that the owners will not put any money into the house. The furniture, mattresses, TV’s, linens, towels, water toys, chairs, hot tub coating, (you name it) etc…. are all way past their useful lives. In short, I’d say excellent potential, but we would never rent this unit again due to the conditions on the interior.

Beautiful place… the photos are very accurate and we absolutely loved our stay. The neighborhood was quiet and the way the home is set up, you feel like you have the whole place to yourself. We had everything we needed in the kitchen and plenty of room for our two families. It was well appointed, clean and a wonderful location. I wish we had spent a little more time at the pool area in KaMilo. It was relaxing and very pretty and we didn’t get to it until the end of our trip. The Mauni Lani beach club was beautiful and there was great snorkeling. The Hilton was fine, but not really our scene, but I think with little kids, it would’ve been something we had gone to much more. Overall, a fantastic experience and we would definitely book again!!

House was very well maintained. The check-in/check-out process was easy. The host even sent a document in advanced with local Big Island highlights. There was a pack and play and high chair for my infant which were in good working order. Beds were comfortable. There were plenty of towels and beach items with the house. All the pool/beach passes included with the home were wonderful and kept my children entertained while I was at a nearby conference. I would definitely book again!!

We had a great stay at the Blue Lagoon Property. We had 2 families with kids under 5 and the grandparents. We loved the house layout with a casita for the grandparents, two rooms for the adults in the familes, a separate room for kids, and the closets were large enough to have pack-n-plays for infant sleeping. The kitchen was open to the dining room, the living room and there was a side cozy room for TV viewing (football in my family) so they didn't disrupt the rest of the family. The pool, porch with chairs and table were right outside the kitchen/living room so we could watch children from inside. The amenities were great. We took chairs to the beach and loved going to the community pool with little kids.
