Wonderful location, great pool area, super comfortable home base for exploring the Big Island. The property managers were also super responsive with any of our questions which is always appreciated.

The host was an excellent communicator before-during-after my stay. We had a snafu with the key pad entry mid-stay and within minutes our host had emailed to check in and offer support. The unit was lovely and our stay was perfect.

Our stay at this property was great! The host was super responsive and helpful. The home is very spacious, clean, and exceptionally well stocked with everything we needed. The location is excellent, and the amenities are a huge plus—being directly across the street from the gym, pool, and hot tub made everything incredibly convenient and easy to enjoy.The only downside was the king bed in the master bedroom, which we found to be quite lumpy and uncomfortable. Aside from that, everything else about the home was wonderful, and we would absolutely consider staying here again.

What a LOVELY place to stay!Here are some highlights:Great location: I don't know all about the microclimates of the Big Island, but I do know it was sunny at our condo when it was often raining on other parts of the island. Also, you are a very short walk to the Golf Villas pool. The pool is lovely with plenty of loungers and it has a hot tub as well. The condo itself is located in one small neighborhood of the larger Mauna Lani complex and is absolutely beautiful. Great landscaping and a wonderful place to run and walk. In the mornings my husband and I would run to the black sand beach, the beach club, or the shops at Mauna Lani. There is also a small fitness center right by the pool with free weights, a treadmill, and elliptical. Just enough options for vacation exercising;) You are about an eleven minute drive from the delicious Original Big Island Shave Ice Company (and many other shops, restaurants, and souvenir stores that make up the Kings' Shops and Queen's Marketplace in Waikoloa) and you are 1.3 miles from a Foodland grocery store and the Tommy Bahama restaurant which make up the shops of Mauna Lani.Beach gear and toys: My husband and I joked this condo is worth it for the beach gear alone. In her garage she has umbrellas, boogie boards, chairs, a wagon, snorkel gear, noodles, life jackets, and the list goes on. We had everything we needed for a full day of fun at the beach. This VRBO is perfect for families with kids, we’d definitely come back.

Great Location! The unit has everything you need to make your vacation wonderful! We were able to use the pool and access to the private beach was absolutely wonderful! Having three bedrooms and three bathrooms worked so well for our family of 4 (two adult kids). Would definitely stay here again!

Great unit, well maintained and equipped with what you need. We really enjoyed our stay and appreciated the quick response from the manager and her accommodating us to stay an extra day and adjusting our checkout times when our flights were cancelled due to the storms. We enjoy this area, and would stay in this unit again. Thanks for a good stay!

The Villa was even better than expected, it felt like a 2nd home to our family! Every possible convenience, including beach gear, was provided. The local pool, the Beach Club and the Hilton were special places. Our best vacation experience ever!Mixed reviews from our crew on renting a golf cart - fun but to get anywhere you have to share the road with cars so we did not venture out much.

This is an outstanding unit in Golf Villas - it feels as spacious as a 3bdrm unit due to the large and well-appointed loft. The hosts are so generous with their amenities which really sets this place apart in terms of convenience and also saves a lot of money for odds and ends at the grocery store. The bedding is lovely and very nicely styled, the TV has so may options to settle in with at night. The pool is so fun for the kids and the beach club is as good as it gets - my favorite spot on earth. Thanks to a wonderful unit in a beautiful spot with stellar hosts, this place is 11 out of 10 - look no further for the perfect place for your family!

This condo is quiet and clean and exactly what we were hoping for for this price point. The highlight is its serene location, and yet only a couple of minutes from the beautiful beach club that it has access to. It’s one of the best beaches and waterfront trails that we found anywhere in Hawaii.Also having a garage space is a bonus.We would recommend this condo for those that are looking for good value when spending most of their time out and about.

I have stayed at the Golf Villas in Mauna Lani many times and always enjoyed the units very much. This particular unit is quite weathered and certainly use some refurbishing. The air conditioning fans seemed quite dirty and the unit is not as clean and tidy as previous units we have stayed in. The unit is also very susceptible to noise from another unit in the complex which is located baove this unit.

Stayed at the property for a week for our 30th anniversary. While smaller than some of the units we had stayed at in the past, everything was great for the two of us. We loved being so close to the pool, the easy drive to the Beach Club, and taking in morning sunrises over Mauna Kea from the Lanai. The access cards and keys were all laid out so nicely and it was easy to understand which were needed for the pool, garage, front gate, etc. We got lots of use out of the grill on the lanai and loved the ample ceiling fans, which allowed us to keep things cool in the bringing and evenings. The pool heater was not working the first two days, making the water a bit chilly, but once fixed, the pool temperature was perfect. We enjoyed our stay and recommend the host and the property.

Clean home, well appointed and well located! The WiFi was spotty most of the stay but they came in and replaced the equipment towards the end of our stay and it was up and running, very responsive, just took a couple visits. Would definitely stay here again.

We had a truly meaningful time together as three generations of our family, including my parents.Dining at the house while overlooking the golf course felt very elegant. In the morning, we could see Mauna Kea in the distance and enjoy the pleasant, gentle breeze, which made the stay even more relaxing.Within a five-minute drive, there are golf courses, a private beach, and a supermarket, making the location extremely convenient.The owner is very responsive and communicates directly, so even if any issues arise, there is no need to worry.Highly recommended.

Jo Ann was a wonderful host who was very responsive to any questions. The location is perfect and the accommodations are very comfortable. It had everything we needed, including beach towels and everything we needed to cook meals. We loved having coffee on the lanai under the stars every morning. The pool and hot tub are close and lovely. A small workout room is also close. Good options for walks and runs from the complex. We enjoyed being able to either walk or drive to Mauna Lani beach, which is a lovely beach with chairs, more walking paths, and accommodations.

We all loved our stay here. The house is well equipped with everything we needed including all the beach related items. There is a beautiful pool right behind the house with a nice hot tub (that i appreciated after long days of exploring). Karen and Steve thankyou for your promptness to all our questions and being so helpful. We really appreciated all the restaurant recommendations you provided. We have been celebrating our daughter’s 16th birthday across the islands and i couldn’t have picked a better place on the Big Island. Mahalo.

The place was very nice and in excellent shape! The location was also great. The host reached out when we arrived, however, when I requested a late checkout 4 days prior to the end of our stay they did not respond. I called the day prior to the end of our stay and the request was denied. Which is understandable - but there was no response until I called. Overall - a great experience!

Easy contactless check in, beautiful pool area, “private” beach area- parking was conveniently close to beach (you get a keycard for the gate to the lot) the parking for those not staying at the resort isn’t close so it isn’t convenient for people to come to this beach so makes it more “private”Home was spacious-2 bedrooms upstairs with attached bathrooms (1 is the Master) main floor bedroom has unattached bathroom. There’s also a pullout couch bed and pack and play to use if needed. Lots of beach items to use(owners provided some and guests have left extra stuff behind) beach chairs, beach towels, snorkel sets, cooler and ice packs, boogie boards, sand toys, beach tent (didn’t use so not sure how big) 2 bikes, and other items! Kitchen has most items you would require to cook meals-items missing that would of been helpful…a baking sheet for pizza/fries, usable can opener, strainer for pasta(the one they had was a salad spinner strainer), it was nice to have a selection of spices available that other guests have left, bbq and outdoor sink was nice and convenient (although lighting the grill was tricky, so be careful) Pots and pans could use updating the Teflon was really scratched. Cleaning fee we found to be a bit high, considering there was dust pretty visible , and finger smudges on doors on contact points. But overall we found the home was a good price in a beautiful landscaped area with beautiful views. The host was pleasant and easy to work with.
