Such a great community and the villa was so clean and beautiful.

We stayed for two weeks. The beds were very comfortable and the ice maker was able to keep up with the six of us. We’ve stayed in the complex before and love it. The gym and pool area are great and access to the private beach is even better.

Great location with access to the Mauna Lani Beach Club. We enjoyed using the BBQ on the patio and the pool just steps away.

My family and I had a wonderful time staying in this lovely condo at Golf Villas. The condo was fully stock with kitchen equipment and appliances. It was clean and spacious. The property manager and team was very helpful when we mentioned that there were no trash bags, which was promptly provided to us that day. The condo was in a very nice and quiet neighborhood. It was close by to Waikoloa village, shopping and pretty beaches. We’d definitely stay here again.

Our stay in the Golf Villas at Mauna Lani was an absolute joy! The location was clean, very well maintained and extremely well appointed. Our friends were in another of the Golf Villas, and D5 was by far better cared for, and better located within the complex. Our kids LOVED the new pool design! The beach club access is brilliant, and there are beach toys for the kids, as well as chairs and other beach equipment in the garage. In addition, our host was incredibly professional and very quick to respond to questions. Check in and check out were a breeze. I cannot be effusive enough in my praise of D5 in the Golf Villas at Mauna Lani. If it's available, book it! If it's not, then change your travel dates in order to stay here... seriously!

We had a wonderful time at this property this past week. It was such a comfortable location providing all the creature comforts our family of four needed. Having the beach club access and pool was such a bonus for us to enjoy the sunset and a hot tub soak after a long day of exploring.

Perfect place for a couple or small family. Ideally located for us, as we love to beach hop and the Waikoloa/Mauna Lani/Mauna Kea area has the best beaches on the island. Home was well stocked with everything we needed, to include umbrellas, a boogie board, and beach chairs. Knowing the amenities were there ahead of time would have definitely saved us some luggage space, but it was good to have it. Very quiet, private and clean location. We will definitely be back.

This unit is nice. Difficult to find and directions given were not to this specific unit so that was confusing. It is very clean and old school island decor that is tasteful. Location is close to pool. Hot tub is not heated. It is pretty well stocked not as well as some locations we have stayed. We had a couple of things that were safety concerns. We were there for my son’s wedding and needed the iron and it is broken and missing safety guard. Some things about this unit Master on suite bathroom has no door. It’s open concept. Be sure to close the blinds. Toilet does have a pocket door. Ventilation is not good. They don’t want you using electricity so we tried to refrain from using the dryer but with the humidity and then trying to dry things, everything seemed damp. It was icky. You are not suppose to hang things on lanai to dry but the people next to us did. So maybe we should have. This unit had very noisy neighbors. Starting at 5:30 in the morning and til :30 at night the heard of elephants above us were trying to get their daily steps in and having gym class. It’s was really loud and hard to sleep. AC doesn’t really carry Over to the bedrooms. Ceiling Fans are nice. Towels are fine but bring beach towels. The ones here are more for children. We had family stying in 4 different units in the resort. 1 in The Villages 3 in the Fairways. Those locations were so much nicer. All of them. All updated. Beautiful. Pool area is nice and hot tin heated. Units stocked!!

The fabulous home (C-5) was immaculate and just as described in its photos. As it is a corner unit, we had wonderful views and a cool breeze. We could see both Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa at the same time. Beach access was a big plus for us. We will definitely return to this unit. The property manager, Amy, was very helpful and sent arrival instructions and follow-ups quickly. We were very impressed by her pleasant manner and determination to make our stay a perfect one.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this condo. The hosts were excellent and really had everything you needed in the kitchen and all areas of the condo and in the garage for the beach. We enjoyed many relaxing mornings in the evenings, sitting on the lanai and enjoying breakfast or barbecue dinner. We would definitely stay here again.

Our second trip to this complex. Thus unit had 270* views of the island. Could see the observatories on Mauna Kea one clear morning. Great location, wonderful views and access to the Mauna Lani Beach Club provides fantastic snorkling. We grilled fresh fish and steaks nightly and enjoyed Kona Coffee each morning. Looking forward to our next visit! Amy was great!

We loved your condo in Mauna Lani Golf Villas. There were so many thoughtful touches that made us feel right at home yet on a marvelous vacation. There were so many beach toys, chairs, etc. the convenience to the pool was awesome and being able to go to the Mauna Lani Beach Clyb was fabulous. The beds were super comfy and the ceiling fans were wonderful. Tons of towels and wonderful bathrooms were awesome. Having a washer and dryer was an extra benefit. We watched the sunset sky from the lanai and ate breakfast and listened to the birds every morning there. It is a beautifully decorated vacation home you will so enjoy. We highly recommend this rental. Suzanne is the best and friendly communicator, too.

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The spacious unit had everything we needed. The most important things to us while we are in Hawaii are snorkeling, paddle boarding, and relaxing on the beach. This place was PERFECT. I have never found another place in this area that let us have use of the garage. That was a HUGE part of why I will come back to this very unit. I rented a Paddleboard for the week and we could store it in the garage! We didn't even need to rent snorkel gear (we always bring our own masks) but the fins were there for us. Also the beach gear like umbrella, wagon, cooler. You name it. I wanted for nothing! Comfortable beds and beautiful lanai with a nice view. I want to go back! Thank you for the wonderful and relaxing time here!

Unit was very comfortable and clean. Very disappointed that swimming pool and hot tub not available for our entire stay and noise from that pool repair was distracting. We were given a 20 percent refund for this, but it should have been emphasized in the listing in HUGE Print the dates pool would be not available. We did very much enjoy the Beach Club however, and the ocean felt wonderful!

It was great place, nice view of the mountains from the rooms. Lanai is spacious, we enjoyed eating outside . The 2 parking spots were helpful. Foosball gives an added fun activity. Beachgear very adequate. Fitness centers and the pool close by. Amy, the manager , has been exceptionally helpful, replies to questions very promptly. I really do not hesitate to select this property again when back to Kona

We were so happy with the house and we had an amazing vacation. We loved that we had the beach club access and having the pool in the back was so convenient. We would definitely stay there again.

This was a perfect location. The unit was just as indicated. The kitchen was wonderfully stocked with plenty of dishes, pots and pans, spices, etc. The toiletries were much appreciated and in larger bottles than we expected. I would highly recommend this place!!

This was our second stay at this condo, our first being in 2017, and this visit was just as great as the first. The condo itself was well equipped, from kitchen supplies to lots of beach gear (coolers, chairs, snorkel gear, etc.). The condo was clean and comfortable. The pool area is lovely for a quiet afternoon, and never seemed busy. Access to the beach club is great, easy parking, great restaurant, and perfect for a morning walk around the fish ponds. Our family really enjoyed staying here and we hope to visit again soon!

Our family of five stayed in here for 10 days at the end of March 2024. We absolutely loved this location, the pool, and access to Owner’s Beach. With our young children we spent mornings at the beach and afternoons at the pool which was very clean and well maintained. The quiet location, walks around the beautiful complex, and calm pool environment was really enjoyed, especially after comparison with some of the busy and noisy beach resorts we visited occasionally in Waikoloa. The condo was super clean and stocked with everything we would need for the beach and the pool. We appreciated the convenience of dishwashing pods, laundry soap, food containers and cooler to take snacks to the beach. Anthony and Nicole were very helpful and responsive to our questions and concern when we had trouble with the wifi which was quickly addressed. We had a fantastic experience here and will definitely return!

Our family had a great stay. With 3 kids aged 13, 11, and 8 it was the perfect family spot. Loved our time at the pool and the private beach club! It’s in a great location close to shops and restaurants. Stocked with every beach toy, umbrellas, coolers, etc. Had an issue with the key lockbox being tough to open and the toilet had a small leak - the owners were quick to respond and have it taken care of! 10/10 would stay agin!

April 2024

Very clean, very well stocked, fantastic place for a vacation. We used the pool daily, it was never too crowded. The Foodland Market nearby was great. We definitely will visit again next spring break!

We had a fantastic time. The space was perfect for our family of five. Super easy access to the beach club where our girls enjoyed snorkeling. A 15 minute drive to Hāpuna Beach and boggie boarding. Lots to see and do. We want to come back and would stay here again.

A stay at this home in the Mauna Lani Golf Villas is a great way to enjoy this part of the Island. Most importantly, our host was super communicative and helpful throughout. The home itself was beautiful and fully loaded with all the necessities of a restful and fun vacation by our family of 7 (five adults, an infant and a toddler). We were just steps from the beautiful pool and only a 5 min drive or bike ride to the beach with all the amenities. It's a great swimming beach AND snorkeling spot. The host provided all the bikes and beach toys needed to maximize our use of the pool and beach too. Thank you for helping to make our family vacation one to remember!

Absolutely loved our stay! It was just me and my two kiddos and they had the best time! The pool is super clean and beautifully landscaped! It was fun to walk around and play during the day and there were plenty of fun things to borrow to bring to the ocean to play on the beach too!

Another beautiful stay at golf villas in this exact condo. So clean and wonderful! There wasn’t anything the condo didn’t have that we needed. The grill is terrific and the view never gets old. I love waking up with the birds while drinking coffee on the lanai. Mahalo!

My family had a lovely stay at this condo. Close to beaches, shops and aloha mixed plate. Also good launching pad for other adventures like ziplining, snorkeling and kayaking. Clean and modern with a nice pool and great beds. Mahalo!

We have an 8 year old son and a 5 year old daughter. The location was amazing! The deck looks out towards the pool and the outdoor grill was fantastic. Pool was perfect for our kids and we enjoyed the private beach!!! We went to the beach early so we were able to get the cabanas.

This is easily the best place we've stayed in Hawaii. The property was incredibly clean, it's steps from a beautiful and quiet pool and hot tub, and so many amenities in the garage for all your Hawaii adventures, fully stocked kitchen with quality appliances made for a wonderful stay. The master bedroom is wonderful, and the space feels so big. Also, the game table is great for a puzzle to wind down after a day at the ocean. Book this place, you won't regret it!

We just spent 10 days at this house and our family enjoyed it. We used the community pool daily, and the majority of the time we were the only ones using it. The house is clean, has all the amenities listed.

March 2024

The condo was perfect for my week stay North of Kona. It was very clean and my bed was comfortable. Neighbors were nice, property and pool was nice and close to beaches, shopping and restaurants. Had a lot of extras like box fan, snorkel equipment, beach chairs, beach towels, etc. Some of the electrical outlets didn’t work, but I didn’t have a problem with having enough light and use of kitchen equipment overall. Costs extra if you want to sleep in AC so I decided not to run the AC much, and it ended up being fine. I did get hot sometimes but the ceiling fans took care of cooling the rooms down. Overall I was happy with this condo and would return!

We love the Golf Villas and have stayed here for years. This Villa is the reason we continue to come back. E2 is clean, neat, orderly and stocked. It is the perfect location to the pool and they have tons of beach towels for guest use. It has ample dishes, pots and pans for use also. Check in and out is simple. Overall it’s a very nice stay and we stayed for 5 1/2 weeks without a problem!

Golf Villas G1 is an excellent place to stay. Everything you could want in a condo was there and in excellent working order. The property is very clean and well equipped. Sitting on the second floor lanai with afternoon cocktails was a complete joy. Dani the property manager was a pleasure to work with. She was incredibly responsive to any questions or needs we had.
John M.

We stayed the last week of February and it was amazing. The location of the property is about 30 minutes from the airport/Kona which is very nice to be out of town but still have plenty of things to do around you. The pool is perfect for a relaxing day with family and the beach access is amazing. The beds were very comfortable and the property management was there to answer any questions we had. This being our first time visiting Hawaii, we will definitely be back and would choose to stay here again!

We had a wonderful stay at this location. Steve and Karen were very helpful and available in case anything came up. We loved being so close to the pool, which was great for kids but not noisy at all. Having access to the beach club was also a highlight. The condo was stocked with anything we might need. We hope to stay again in future trips.

I stayed here with my husband and our 6-month-old and we loved every minute! Property was exactly how it was described—clean, well-maintained, spacious, and fully equipped with everything you need to have a perfect vacation on the big island.

Perfect space for 2 kids, parents and grandparents. Hapuna beach nearby, can get into Hilton pools if you buy passes (which we did on a day too windy for the beach). Has everything you need. Grounds are beautiful. More peaceful area to me than waikoloa but king/queen shops are close enough. Pool was steps away and never crowded. Beach club is nice and easy, you can walk the fishponds and to the auberge hotel from there. Personal touches for us when we arrived was wonderful. Thank you!
