Great property…super clean…extremely comfortable. Easy walking access to great beaches and great restaurants. The pool/cabana area was newly remodeled and underutilized. Had the entire pool to ourselves on multiple occasions. The many fish ponds near the property were cool to walk around as well. Great spot would definitely go back!

This was our first time staying in the Mauna Lani area, we’ve visited many times but never stayed. There are many facilities available, coffee shop, supermarket, restaurants etc, plus great views of sunset, Mauna Kea, Mauna Loa and Haleakala on Maui. A beautiful place to stay in Hawaii!

This was my husband's and my second stay at Sue and Dave's beautiful condo. They have created a wonderful environment for a vacation. Every detail of what you might need is already there in the condo complete with a thick binder on the coffee table answering any question you might have with tons of great suggestion of what to do during your stay. They are always available to answer any question you may have and respond quickly. It has become one our favorite places to go in the world and we will be returning. Thank you, sue & Dave.

This is an amazing location. The condo was perfect. Nice layout, super stocked, and excellent communication from booking to departure. The ocean and snorkeling were spectacular! We hope to return soon.

The condo was great, well-equipped and the first floor location made it easier to go to the beach and pool through the patio doors. We are returning next year for the same unit.
The only issue we had was the 3 or the 4 camp chairs available in the beach closet were broken, but the manager is going to replace them.

The original condo we expected had a problem with air conditioning, so Kona offered us a substitute. We didn’t know what to expect, but it was absolutely beautiful. There were ample beach items, absolutely lovely furnishings, an outdoor bar area and room for family members staying at three additional condos at Mauna Lani Estates to enjoy a meal on the outdoor patio
Together. The furnishings were lovely and beds were comfortable. We would definitely choose to stay there again.

My husband and I enjoyed meals and drinks on the balcony with its gorgeous view. As we had four condos for a family of 14, including seven young grandchildren, we spent lots of time at the large condo pool. There is also a great jacuzzi and children’s pool.
I never did figure out how to change the washer temp but everything came out fine!
The condo was spotless though there were some light stains on the carpeting. It was full of equipment for the beach, including two beach chairs and even a small Child’s life vest. We always make a Costco stop when arriving and bought a beach umbrella for our almost 3 year old grandson. However, the bay where we spent so much time had plenty of shade from trees. It is a great spot for young swimmers, as it isn’t choppy as the ocean in front of the Mauna Lani. (We left the unused umbrella!). I would happily stay here again.

We had a wonderful stay in this peaceful condo! The unit was clean and welcoming and the lanai was perfect - overlooking both the ocean and a beautiful fish pond. Easy walk to the pool and the neighboring Mauna Lani Auberge Resort. The owners took great care to make sure we had a nice stay, and their recommendations for local dining and entertainment were greatly appreciated. The unit was also well equipped for preparing meals and eating in. We would definitely stay here again! Mahalo.

This condo is the quintessential location for access to all of the amenities of the property along with the resort next door.
Well appointed space with every item needed to enjoy a comfortable vacation on your terms.

Perfect for our family. Updated kitchen with new appliances. We purchased food before arriving, never left the resort. Wonderful view from the balconies, private balcony for the master bedroom. Felt like floating above the water, right on the large fish pond, excellent view of the ocean. We ate all of our meals on the balcony, friendly birds begging for crumbs, fun to feed. Catfish in the pond happy for scraps. Never used the AC, just turned on the ceiling fans and opened the doors and closed the screens. Just need to make sure the screens are closed or the birds will come into the house looking for crumbs. Our vacation is all about swimming in the ocean. Wonderful access and terrific fish and eels to see on the coral reefs. Also has an orange bouy off the beach and bait fish gather, drawing blue fin Trivolie and small sharks - fun to watch. The beach is great access for timid swimmers and children, but great access for advanced swimmers to go out to the reefs. Will be back!

The condominium was well appointed, relatively clean and the maintenance staff very responsive.
The entire Mauna Lani complex is beautifully maintained and the staff friendly and helpful.
I would highly recommend a stay in the Terraces which is within walking distance of delicious restaurants and breathtaking waterfront and beach.

I've never left a negative review before so I really hate to do this. First for the positives...location. It is right next to the Mauna Lani Resort so walking is very easy. Our daughter got married there so it was perfect to run back and forth. The beach club is close enough to walk and spent a fun day there. The unit is fully stocked with everything you could ever need including beach gear so that was very much appreciated. The unit is very spacious and the furnishings are very nice for a rental. The only negative (which is a biggie in my eyes) was the cleanliness. Immediately when we walked into the unit we were greeted with dirty, stained floors. The tile is very porous so just mopping will not get it clean. It needed a good brush scrubbing incredibly bad. The edges of the walk areas are beige but the walking path was brown. The carpet had massive stains (also beige) so we immediately took pictures and sent them to the manager/owner. They said they were aware of it and a carpet cleaner was coming once we left. Once I saw those two big blunders, I couldn't help but look out for more. The shams and throw pillows in the primary bedroom were dirty so I immediately threw them in the washing machine. There were finger smudges all over the kitchen cabinets and where you didn't touch it to open them, they were dusty. The balcony wasn't swept or vacuumed. Hopefully the unit gets a thorough deep cleaning then it will be a 10 out of 10.

This Mauni Lani Terrace has always been my favorite location on the Big Island. It is hard to find the sound of the ocean without staying at an actual resort on the Big Island. This condo provides immediate access to the beautiful Mauni Lani private beach club, and a private pool for your access. The snorkeling lagoon is the best on the island in my opinion. Its very calm and kids can play in the water without worry of a current.
The condo sits above the historic fish ponds of the property, and the balcony is grand and a pleasure to dine and sit on.
The hosts of this property went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of! The ease of checking in and out could not have been easier.
This condo is extremely clean and very well accommodated, especially in the kitchen. Everything you could want or need is there. Coolers, beach chairs and plenty of chairs and beach towels are available.
I highly recommend this for your family or group when you visit the Big Island! Cheers! We will be back!
Aloha and Maholo!

Five minutes walking to beach! When my wife and I visited, the night we got there there was an unusual 5 inches of rain. This caused flooding north of us and shut down many beaches, but not the beach at Mauna Lani. It was great to walk to, no car needed. The Lenai (covered porch) was very comfortable in the morning and the evening. The air conditioning worked great, keeping the inside cool enough to sleep comfortably. Fans provided throughout were very nice as well. TV was good sized. Kitchen was well stocked. It was really an exceptional place to stay for the two of us. We had a good time and will likely return at some point!

We loved our stay at the Mauna Lani Terraces! Our unit was loaded with everything we needed and then some!! The updated pool area is wonderful as well as the location to the beach/beach club and restaurants nearby. An unexpected bonus, membership to the sports and fitness center where my husband enjoyed many rounds of pickleball as well as lessons while I enjoyed the workout area. We loved it so much, we have booked again for next year. :-)

My two daughters and a friend stayed in this condo for a week in April.We could not be more delighted with everything. The kitchen has all you need to cook gourmet meals and the condo has many unexpected amenities, including beach chairs, floats, boogie boards, flippers and a wagon to haul it all. We made good use of the washer and dryer and all the soap and softener required was provided. The lanai is lovely and the views are great. It is a short walk to the pool, beach and to the Mauna Lani Resort hotel We will definitely stay here again!

Owner of this unit takes pride in his place, everything was maintained perfectly and unit is fully stocked. Attention to detail, providing plenty of back-up soap, shampoo, even sunscreen. Chairs and umbrella and snorkle gear the beach! Lovely fruit gift basket upon arrival. Location is ideal.

My husband and I had a great stay here April 14 to 20, 2024. The location next to the Mauna Lani Hotel really can't be beat. We were able to walk over to the hotel to grab a coffee in the morning, and also walked to dinner one night. There are many walking trails as well.
Having the two bathrooms in the condo was a major plus, and the view from the lanai was so wonderful. It is so great to have all the extra space that a condo gives you over a hotel room.
The beach club that is available for use was very nice, with a quiet lagoon, and cabanas and loungers for guests. There is a restaurant right there, and would have been a great option to get lunch, but the day we were there, Monday, April 15, their gas was shut off, so they could only offer cold items. The beach club was a small area, and was very crowded, even though it was still just mid-April. We prefer a different ambiance, so we took the drive up the highway the rest of the week to the beautiful beach at the Mauna Kea Resort. The public parking lot there is small, so if you want to explore that beach, go early!
The condo is also close to a small shopping center with a grocery store, where we bought a few provisions, and a Tommy Bahama restaurant and store. There are a few more restaurants and shops there as well.
Sue and Dave, the condo owners, were so helpful with lots of information regarding local dining options and activities. We really appreciate all their help, and thank them for making their condo available.

Have stayed in many Mauna Lani condos over the years, but this was our first time at the Terraces. By far the best of all locations. Loved waking along the ancient Hawaiian fish ponds to the beach.
Very nice condo. Comfortable…easy to relax in and out on the lanai that looks out over a beautiful pond. Such a lovely stay. Mahalo, Daniel.

The two families had a wonderful our stay here. Very comfortable home with 2 masters on opposite ends so privacy for each couple and one toddler. The lanai, the bathrooms and the living spaces are beautiful and functional. We enjoyed the pools, the three beaches within walking distance, and the amenities and restaurants at the nearby hotel - also with amazing views. The hosts were easily accessible and answered questions about using the TV's and the easy check out. Thank you Daniel and Harry for a wonderful vacation!

Pros: Location is terrific, close to water, great view. The beds are comfortable, and the pool area is close by clean and nice. We enjoyed our stay, but want to bring a few things to the attention of the owners and management as well as future renters.
The place is in great need of an upgrade. The refrigerator door has a dent in it, does not stay closed and needs to be checked, as well as damage to the outside of the door. Two kitchen towels were provided for a 3 week stay. None of the screen doors lock, and the bedroom screen came off the rail, and the frame came away from the wall in the master bedroom when the glass door was opened and or locked. The sheets and towels need to be upgraded-even a bit would help. The bath towels are like used gym towels, and when we asked for a few more, we were told that we could wash them. For the price, and a 3 week stay, I think there is a better solution. There are no pads on the chaise lounge, and when I asked management, I was told they could see if the owners would buy some.
Some of this is just a matter of providing to match the price and a bit more comfort. But definitely in need of an upgrade. Management was kind and responsive when we asked for clean placemats and a few towels that were delivered. We recognize these are small incidentals but definitely even minute amenities..for this price range...need attention to detail.

First time staying in this condo, for a relaxing 3-week winter escape. Lee, the owner, is great to work with. Everything is as shown in the listing, no surprises. Location was great for us...the lanai is in the shade all day, in a quiet corner of the condo community. High end furnishings and accessories, easy parking, clean, updated, and modern. Good kitchen and entertainment tech. This is a very easy place to settle in and relax.

I've stayed at several units in this complex and keep coming back. The units are spacious, well appointed, and the location cannot be beaten. Best weather on the island, although you do have to get used to the lava rock landscape. Easy drive to several shopping spots for groceries, and the Beach Club beach is a short walk or easy drive if you haul a lot of gear.Close to both Mauna Kea and Hapuna beaches, which are stunning. This unit is perhaps in need of a little refresh, but for a vacation rental, no complaints.

The Terraces F102 was so lovely.... nicely decorated, spacious, right on the pond, sounds, smells, and small view of the ocean from the spacious lanai, access to pool and ocean just a 5 minute walk, as well as easy walk to The Mauna Lani Beach Club one direction down the beach and the hotel the other, right next door. The owner was very kind and responsive. I adored my time here and plan to come again!
