Suite, property and location all great. Only complaint we had (and speaking to others they felt the same) is the staff member coming out to quiet people by the pool in the middle of the day(kids having fun in pool). Signs posted about quiet hours between 8am and 9pm but grounds people start working with lawnmowers outside bedroom window before 7am.

Very clean. Supplies needed were all there. Instructions were clear on how to use all appliances, etc. The only suggestion I have is to leave on the outside light so that arriving at night we could see the lock and where it was.

The condo was well located in the Mauni Lani resort area. However, there was confusing information sent to us about where to park, the entry stairs were dirty, the lanai was very dark with surrounding foliage, the sofas were too low for us to sit on them (and get up) comfortably, the air conditioning controls were difficult to reach with a piece of decorative furniture in front of them. The master bedroom closet was small and the shower in the master bath had a pebble floor that was VERY uncomfortable to stand on - and no rubber mat to help. There was no tea kettle for our morning tea and we don’t drink coffee in the morning.The unit offered a number of amenities like dishwashing and clothes washing pods, etc. It would probably be fine for a lot of people, just not a good fit for us.

Beautiful property with access to many amenities. Well stocked kitchen, which is a personal must have. Would stay here again. Only thing I would suggest is a recycling bin - it was tragic how much recycling when into the garbage.

Our stay at Jefferson's home in Mauna Lani was amazing. The unit was clean and spacious, well stocked kitchen, and comfortable beds. The separated master and secondary bedroom "wings" was perfect for two couples to have their own quarters. The lanai was comfortable and a great place to relax after a day of exploring.We will look into staying here again on a Kona visit. The value was great. Thanks!

This property is nicely appointed with comfortable furniture and bed, very important! Kitchen very well stocked with gadgets. Quiet. Open space view of lava field. Beach and pool toys abound. Some of appliances are older and need TLC. The host communicates well and is accommodating.

We loved staying at this property! The pool on site is gorgeous, though be warned it is very cold, which can be a deterrent to use. There is also a hottub by the pool, heated after 12pm, which frequently was in use by others as well given the cold pool. The walk to the beach club is wonderful, as was the wagon, toys, etc. The complex itself is not particularly kid friendly; we heard some other families receive feedback at the pool to quiet down. I would also be aware that this is an upstairs unit if traveling with toddlers or young kids as we learned during our stay that their footsteps generate more noise than that of adults. That being said, the beach was phenomenal and full of other friendly families! The restaurant at the beach is also fabulous. We had lunch there many days. We loved the washer/dryer, and the unit housed us perfectly. The grill and outdoor lanai setup worked well for the rare nights we cooked, and the nearby shopping center grocery (long walk or short drive) was excellent for quick meals. Unit was clean, showers were great, beds were comfortable, and the sunset view was gorgeous. Highly recommend!

Of the many condos we’ve rented, this one had the best supplies and loads of beach equipment. The owners provided spices, condiments, paper supplies, shampoo and conditioner, to name just some things. There were lots of beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards and snorkel gear. The grounds are beautifully landscaped. Sitting on the patio for meals was wonderful. Nearby beaches are great for swimming and snorkeling and are child friendly. The property manager was helpful and responsive. She arranged the loan of infant equipment and was able to give us a delayed checkout time. My only caution would be , if you have boisterous or noisy children, this might not be the place for you. The condo association is very strict about noise control and kids’ activities. We were told our 4 year old granddaughter shouldn’t play ball on the lawn and we were asked to be quieter when she was shouting with excitement in the pool. This was all done very nicely but as we noted, it’s hard to keep little ones quiet when they’re playing. Otherwise a perfect holiday home.

We had a very relaxing time at the Palm Villas. This unit is very well stocked. I have actually never had a kitchen in a rental be so well stocked. I so appreciate having a slow cooker! In addition, they have soap, shampoo, conditioner, dish detergent and laundry detergent. Not just a starter pack, plenty for the whole stay. This is greatly appreciated so that we do not have to rush out to the store on the first day. Thank you for a great trip!

Overall we had a wonderful time in this condo. The fitness center access was key, as was the beach club. The condo was stocked with everything we could need for our vacation and was very well maintained. We love staying on the property of the Mauna Lani with the fish ponds and walking paths, and the golf courses are great.

This was our 12th time renting a condo at Mauna Lani, and the personal attention of the owners of this unit set it apart from the rest. The condo itself is wonderfully comfortable - the beds, fully stocked kitchen with abundant dishes and flatware (some rentals have just 6 of each), crisp and soft sheets, a garage stocked with every item needed at the beach (we've stayed in some with just a single frayed beach chair and nothing else), an impressively large living room TV that was easy to use - plus TVs in both bedrooms, an Amazon Echo for music, an honor bar, every supply needed, and a tremendous library. Access to the Auberge fitness center is a big bonus that most rentals don't have. The condo was very clean. The owners' binder is the best of any rental we've stayed in, with photos and detailed descriptions about restaurants and things to do and see, in addition to clear instructions about all aspects of the condo. The owners clearly care about their rental, and it reflects in the guest experience. Thank you! We hope to return.

The location is excellent, the pool was fantastic, and we used the BBQ, which was clean and of good quality. Typical in older properties the lack of soundproofing insulation is to be expected, you could hear the individuals upstairs like a herd of elephants. The unit had cleaning supplies, a vacuum and a host package with garbage bags, laundry detergent, dishwasher cubes etc.The check-in and support were fantastic, clear and concise. All in all, it is an excellent property.

We had a wonderful time here. The location was perfect, beautiful walk through lava rock and fishponds to the private beach. Petroglyph park was super close, and great snorkeling and boogie boarding beaches a short drive away. The condo itself is very well appointed, nice kitchen and outdoor patio/grill area. It's in a very quiet and private area, we felt like we were the only people there even though most of the condos appeared to be occupied. Would highly recommend and hope we can stay there again!

We have stayed several times at this lovely, very clean, spacious condo in the gorgeous and quiet Mauna Lani area. The location of the condo is excellent, just across from the pretty pool and close to the complex entrance. The kitchen is well stocked with plenty of counter space. The condo has very nice furnishings and everything is updated and in good working order. The linens and towels are good quality. There are bikes and beach gear available and each unit comes with two parking spots (the garage and one other parking pass). It’s ideal for a family with three or four older children as there’s a master bedroom and then a bedroom with a queen and one with a trundle bed that can sleep two, with a shared bathroom in between. Nice washer/dryer and BBQ on the lanai. The unit comes with a card to access the gated parking lot at Makaiwa which while a small beach, has a very nice bar and restaurant and good snorkeling. Very short drive or reasonable walk to several shops and good restaurants and other nice beach areas as well as the beautiful Kalahuipuaa fishponds.

This condo was a perfect fit for our family of five. We loved the location (beaches, walking trails, shopping) and the condo had everything we needed (kitchen, beach items, washer/dryer) It was a beautiful space to spend relaxing time together as a family!

Central location near tennis center and a short walk to the beach. We have stayed at this complex 5 times, and are always happy. This condo has everything, complete kitchen, barbecue, garage full of beach items, and a pass to the beautiful beach nearby. The kitchen has everything we needed, and the condo was clean. It is comfortable and spacious as well.

Top shelf condo! Clean and modern. Very well stocked kitchen and the starter package with garbage bags, storage bags and dishwasher laundry tabs was very useful. Also lots of storage containers which was nice. Great selection of equipment including beach chairs, bag, umbrella, cooler and snorkeling gear. Quite and private view from balcony, great BBQ (vent fan needs some work). Great selection of towels for shower, pool and beach. Ice maker was a little slow so grab extra ice if that's important to you. This property is a great spot for adults but would not recommend for kids, lots of rules and lots of signs "do this, don't do that". We were scolded for playing catch in the pool by a lady with a boogie eyed white dog in a stroller which had to be parked right beside the water, painful. The grounds are immaculate and the walk to beach is very convenient as shore access parking is limited in Mauna Lani. Better beaches a short drive at Hapuna, A' bay and Kua bay. Would stay again and recommend.

We enjoyed our stay at this VRBO. The grounds were lovely, the living areas were spacious, and overall we found it to be reasonably clean. The area was fairly walkable given the amenities included: nearby stores and restaurants, walks to the fish pond, the pool and hot tub access, etc. Some of the living quarters needed a little TLC such as burnt out light bulbs in the kitchen, remote control instructions that didn't go with a remote, and an entertainment center that blocked some of the TV views and had doors and drawers that were difficult to open. If you have anything larger than a RAV4 I'd suggest abandoning the idea of parking in the garage and opt for the parking spaces within the property. We had mere inches in front and back of our Jeep Grand Cherokee when parked in the garage. The beach gear provided was in good shape and we used it frequently. The provided instructions by the hosts were very detailed but a little redundant and overwhelming, however, they were responsive and kind in all of our interactions. All in all I found the value for the price to be good.

Overall we were extremely happy with our 10 night stay and would definitely stay here again. The main bed was the most comfortable rental bed I have ever slept on. The guest bed was a bit uneven but manageable and we didn't use the twin beds but they seemed like they would be fine for kids. The hosts were very fast and responsive with questions. Everything was as pictured and we had everything needed during our stay and the property is so quiet, it was amazing. The pool and fitness center just behind the building were very nice and clean and barely used by others during our stay. We did not use the actual sports fitness club or pool. Our main reason for always staying in Mauna Lani is to have access to the private beach club, having the key card so you can park at the beach is definitely worth it.

Our group of 5 adults had a wonderful time at this condo! It was thoughtfully supplied with everything we needed for a week's stay: plenty of laundry and dishwasher detergents, paper products, even zip lock plastic bags! There were plenty towels and beach towels, and the kitchen was well supplied for meals in. Included in the rental were four sets of snorkeling equipment, as well as boogie boards, beach chairs, beach umbrellas and toys.There is a shopping mall as you enter the Mauna Lani Resort that had a nice grocery store (and coffee shop!). It was nice to have parking included, and we drove all over the island. I recommend this condo!

Fantastic fun place to stay, very comfortable. The easy beach access - short drive - was wonderful, and the beach was perfect! A beautiful way to while away the day, with a lovely restaurant and beautiful walks.
Due to some confusion, all on our part, about the booking we had to switch condos in the middle of our stay, but Meredith and Brian and the whole staff couldn't have been nicer and made everything so easy. We can't wait to come back!

Perfect Mauna Lani location, short walk to the beach on lava trail, close to restaurants, hotel amenities and the pool is just outside the patio door.
The unit is great for a couple or family with a few children. Everything is provided for cooking in the unit or for the beach. Hosts responded immediately when needed.
Would choose this location if we return to Mauna Lani.

Family of 5 all adults stayed for a week.
It was spacious enough.
Lots of light with all the windows.
nice views into the mature garden and lava rock. Being on the corner gave us more privacy and more garden views.
Kitchen had most of things one would need. There electric kettle was broken so we had to boil water for coffee each morning. They have a coffee maker but we like to grind and do our on drip coffee thing.
We grilled a few times on the patio and this was nice.
The beds and bedding were comfortable.
The bath linens were ok a little hard, could be nicer.
They provided beach towels. And this unit had coolers, chairs, and umbrellas, plus other things. Very quiet and secure area. We walked to the fish ponds in the mornings and evening and enjoyed the access the beach club.

Great condo…we were very surprised that that had shampoo, conditioner, body wash, soap and a lot more in the condo for convenience. That came in very handy, because our luggage didn’t come until the next day. The only issue we had was the day before check in we were asked to keep the air conditioner set to 80 degrees while we were out and 78 degrees while in the condo. If we had known before booking, we may not have booked it. I truly understand that everyone Hawaii is very expensive…including electricity. But 78 degrees was not a pleasurable temperature for us. Other than that, it was one of our best stays in a VRBO condo.
