I can’t say enough good things about this rental. It is beautiful, and new looking with high end finishes. Everything about this home says “you and your families are welcome here”. The beds were all very comfortable, and the sheets and towels felt high end. Additionally, the kitchen is extremely well stocked with cookware/bakeware, spices, glass food storage, and so on.
They have thought of not just the big things, but the little things as well. The home was stocked with everything from a folding wagon for the beach/excursions, baby equipment, toiletries, etc.
An additional bonus is that it has a semi-enclosed yard area, which the kids enjoyed playing in.
The property manager is also impressive. They are easily reachable and extremely responsive. We found that two of the beach umbrellas were broken and they delivered two new ones within a half hour of contacting them.
Just a few minor suggestions:
• The three thermostats are set to not go below 72 degrees. This was more than sufficient for the most part, with a small exception. The main area gets a bit warm in the late afternoons so allowing just that thermostat to be set at 71 degrees would be helpful. However, that area is plenty cool outside of the late afternoons (when most aren’t there anyway), so it’s definitely not a deal breaker.
• Having a coffee scoop and a 9 x 9 baking pan in the kitchen would be helpful.
Wonderful stay overall, and we are excited to return!

Listing did not disclose the air conditioning was set at 73 at the lowest. Changed to 75 and to 80 during the day without notice. After a few complaints they allowed us to go down to 72. Still changed to 75 and 80 during the day. We have our home set at 70 due to the heat and humidity which is similar to Hawaii’s weather. Unit has no rice maker. BBQ did not work and was dirty. Maintenance did fix it quickly. Be aware of roaches! Bedding was a joke. Thin blankets with cheap sheets. At the day of arrival, we did not have a code to get in the property, spoke with several people to get access and kept getting disconnected after being on hold for 20 minutes or longer. 2 people told us we didn’t get the welcome package due to an unsigned contract. After several calls we finally had a lady that knew what she was doing and said that contract was signed and the error was with their system. The property is in the Villages. A step above the fairways and that’s about it. Property is overpriced for the location. That’s was my fault, been coming here for 22 years and as a previous owner, should’ve known. Definitely wouldn’t recommend this place.

I stayed here with family to celebrate my Dad's 80th. Robert's communication was excellent and provided us with valuable recommendations for local restaurants and sight seeing. The home provided ample space for 5 of us each with our own bathroom. The kitchen was well stocked for pretty much anything. We were able to walk to the local grocery store, shops, and down to the shore.
My only gripe was that the bathrooms located in the lower portion of the home had dim lighting making it difficult to use the mirror effectively for getting ready for dinner out.
There was a 6 seater EV golf cart that would have been useful for a day or two however the rental rate was a lot more costly than our car rental. It would have been nice to have been offered a discounted rate as it sat there unused but we got by just fine with one vehicle as parking at the Beach Club was never an issue.
Thanks for being a great host, Robert!

Family of four stayed in this lovely home. Very private, quiet and peaceful. Single level home a huge plus over two story homes in the area. We love to cook at home and this is the best stocked kitchen on the Big Island. We’ve stayed on Mauna Lani property for past 18 summers. This has been our most favorite property. Very gracious host and would definitely come back. Thank you.

This thoughtfully decorated townhome is incredibly clean and quiet with comfortable, quality furnishings. The bedrooms, baths and common spaces are spacious. The kitchen is well-equipped with everything you will need to prepare and serve delicious meals. We made good use of the Sonos sound system and found the AC and thermostat easy to adjust—we were always comfortable, day and night. WiFi worked great. We ate all of our meals outdoors on the roomy lanai—and have oodles of breathtaking sunset photos we took from there.
We liked its convenient location: full grocery, shops and restaurants within easy walking distance, access to Mauna Lani beach including nearby parking, and fresh, made-to-order malasadas + a gourmet coffee truck just three miles up the highway. The owners were very helpful prior to our visit and the on-island concierge was also incredibly prompt and thorough. Highly recommend.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The house is immaculate and even more impressive in person than it was online. The living area is spacious and there was more than enough room for our party to enjoy dinner inside or on the wonderful lanai. We loved lounging by the pool, enjoying the view of the beautiful golf course.
The house is within walking distance to Foodland, which made quick provision trips a pleasure. Poke bowls and spam musubi were great to pick up to picnic with! More shopping was easily accessible 7 mins away by car at Queens Marketplace (great for us shopaholics!). We loved having the remote control for the entry gate (easy entry) and it was so fantastic having key card access to the nearby beach club. The restaurant at the beach club was amazing! We loved having bikes at the house made available for our use, though the tires were flat when we got there. A quick call to our host and the bike repairs were covered at the shop and we were on our way! Our host was easy to contact and dealt with issues promptly. Couldn’t have asked for a better vacation. Thanks Buddy!

This is our fourth Big Island stay, and our first at Mauna Lani Villages. We used to stay at Kohala Ranch in the past. The unit is impeccable. In a quiet neighbourhood, minimal noice, closer to Kona and Costco. The Mauna Lani beach club access is a big plus for this unit. We went to the beach club daily in the morning before the crowds and again in the evening to watch the sunset from the fish pond area. Unit is well furnished and well supplied. Having two air conditioners is a plus and made the stay even more enjoyable. Our children used the pool and the small gym almost daily.

Property exceeded my expectations. The condo is in pristine condition, extremely clean and stocked with every amenity. Extremely comfortable and quiet. Hosts and property manager are both very gracious and helpful. Would definitely reserve for another stay!

We spent a wonderful week at this beautiful home and loved everything about the home and the area. As a multi generation group - my mom who is 79, my husband, sister and myself in our 40s and our two teenage daughters, this house seemed made for us. We all had our own space but could come together in the great room/kitchen area and lanai to hang out as a family. We love to cook and the kitchen is superbly equipped for that. We also took full advantage of the grill on the lanai. We also like to have the opportunity to eat out and this location offers this as well. Best of both worlds! The beds and linens are the best of any VRBO we’vestayed in.
3 of us are golfers. They were in heaven with so many world class courses nearby. 3 of us are beach bums. We loved the access to the beach club and black sand beach. The house has all the beach chairs, towels and umbrellas you need. Plus floats and snorkel gear. We found a SCUBA operator that picked up at a boat ramp just north so we didn’t have to drive back to Kona to dive. Highly recommend them. Blue Wilderness. We rented a golf cart for the week and I highly recommend it. It’s great for going to the beach club, grocery store and local restaurants. If you are on the fence about choosing this property, jump off. It’s great. You won’t regret it. But, if you want an ocean view this location is not for you. We did not need that here and it was not advertised as such. The lush landscaping and fragrant plumeria trees are vintage Hawaii.

Beautiful home. Loved the pool. Needs some TLC. garage door opener loud enough to wake the dead, scary it didn't tangle itself up. BBQ flares off your arm hair and eyebrows every time. No outdoor chair cushions, lounge chair cushions falling apart and beat down. 2nd coffee pot broken (reg and decaf). Ice maker broken. BUGS! every morning the floor was crawling. Ate an apple and cockroach joined me - it won. If we had little kids we would not have tolerated it. Manager said it was recently treated and that was that. Hard to locate on arrival, ok after that.

Parking/ access to the beach club was great. House has good space for groups, a pretty view of the course and a nice pool and hot tub. We hope to come back sometime!

It’s been nine years since we last stayed at Mauna Lani Villages and the complex has been maintained to perfection. Harvey and Louise have a lovely unit stocked with everything you might need from spices to cookware. It is so quiet and peaceful that it seems a shame to go out and see the sights but we did. We’ve traveled extensively but if there was only one place we could vacation, it would be here.

The house itself is amazing. The pictures do not do it justice. The location is perfect and the house beautiful. The problem was on check in. Check in time was 3pm and we arrived at that time. When we got there, the house was not ready and the cleaning people were still there along with a rep we assume was from the prop mgmt company. They said it would be ready shortly so we waited outside in our cars. It was over an hour and we didn't get any kind of an update. Just got left in our cars on a hot day. Luckily we hadn't flown in that day or it would have been a lot worse. Once we finally got in the house, you could tell they rushed the cleaning job. Some floors and areas in the bathrooms were still dirty, the beach towells were folded and put away but were still very wet. The dryer was full of more towels that were not put away, just things like that that indicate they did everything in a hurry without attention to detail. We understand that things sometimes happen, but the communication could have been much better and they could have done something for us since our check in was delayed.
Like I said, the house is beautiful and amazing and we would love to stay there again but we would hesitate due to the management company.

This is a great property - very clean, well stocked, and conveniently located in the Mauna Lani Resort area. We had everything we could possibly want. The house is located right by the pool area, so there was sometimes some noise from there, but for us it was never bothersome - just kids having fun. This is very close to the grocery store and the shops at Mauna Lani (highly recommend the coffee shop - great coffee!) This is overall a great resort area and the house really felt like our home away from home. We would definitely stay here again!
April 2023
We absolutely loved this spot. Myself, husband, 2 children and another couple stayed here. Tons of space for everyone with a great outdoor area for eating & relaxing. The pool was only a 2 minute walk away and the beach was a couple of minute drive. Loved that the house had tons of beach toys, a wagon, coolers and chairs. The house was well stocked with beach towels, kids dishes and had the perfect room upstairs for our children with two double beds.

We had a 70th Birthday celebration for our family of 9, including 2 infants under one, a 3 yr old and 6 adults. It was FABULOUS! The kitchen was decked out with all the dishes we needed as well as baggies for storage, trash bags, olive oil, hot sauce, spices, mayo, catsup and more. Lots of space for storage in the kitchen and bedrooms. Great showers, both inside and outside near pool and hot tub which were used daily, sometimes more than once. We were close to several beaches that were great. It was better than I could have dreamed.

There was SO much space to spread out in this gorgeous property. We stayed at a second location on a different part of the island the second half of the week, and my kids kept asking to return to our first house! Beds were comfortable, bathrooms and lanai were all gorgeous. Amenities were great - kids loved the community pool. The gear available for use on our beach days was utilized and very appreciated. Communication was prompt, friendly and helpful. Would Highly recommend this property.

Grocery store is just next store and the pool is small but clean and well taken care of. Would definitely stay here again.
April 2023
This home exceeded all of my expectations. The property looked incredible in the photos online, and was even better in person.
Unlike rentals homes that come with average quality furniture, appliances, and kitchenware, this home offered top-notch amenities. Everything, from the water faucets to the mattresses, was spectacular.
The property had it all, even items you wouldn't typically find in a rental. We had access to everything from small (and obscure) things such as a lemon zester and melon baller, to large (and helpful) things such as a cooler and beach wagon. We didn't need to purchase anything other than food.
The nearby beach club great. We spent a good amount of time snorkeling, using the equipment provided at the home. We also liked having the Foodland grocery store within walking distance, perfect for picking up odds and ends.
I also appreciated the multiple patios, outdoor barbecue, beach towels and high-speed internet.
I must mention the excellent customer service provided by the owner, Harvey, and his local property manager, Lissette. They were both responsive and accommodating. Lissette went above and beyond by picking up a small grocery order I placed online (as our flight arrived very late), ensuring my kids had snacks that night and a light breakfast the next morning (pre-Costco).
This property and our entire experience deserve a perfect score of 5 out of 5. I highly recommend this home for anyone looking for a picture perfect vacation.
April 2023
This stay exceeded all of our expectations.
Communication with the owners/property managers was second to none, with timely and informative answers to all our questions. The check-in process was seamless, and we were made to feel very welcome upon arrival. The housekeeping staff were friendly, welcoming, and extremely diligent when cleaning and stocking supplies.
Speaking of supplies... laundry detergent was provided, along with dishwashing detergent, coffee and accoutrements, etc. We were very grateful for this. I can't say enough about the property. The condo was even better than the pictures. Cleanliness was exemplary. Rooms/spaces wee large and airy., extremely comfortable bed and pillows, large and modern bathroom, and the couch was luxurious. We could live here quite happily. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything needed when staying in to cook and dine. Shopping is driveable, or a short cab ride if you do not have a vehicle. We enjoyed some quieter times spent in the condo as well. Thank you Laura Lee!

We stayed a week here with daughter and teen grandchildren. This lovely home is spacious with a gorgeous and very functional kitchen. The teens could walk a short distance to Maina Lani Shops for snacks. Beach fun was so easy because the owner stocks a wonderful assortment of boogie boards, beach chairs, and picnic coolers. We've come to this area annually for several years and this was absolutely the best home we've stayed in. The owner was amazing in his quick response to questions about check in and his binder of information about using the house facilities answered every question. Best Hawaii trip ever!

This location was absolutely amazing. Great location with our favorite snorkeling site right off the beach at the beach club and everything we could possibly need for a day at the beach was in the garage (boogie boards, snorkelers gear, beach chairs, umbrella, cooler...). The kitchen had everything we needed to cook including a rice cooker. And to top it all off the unit is beautifully furnished and so comfortable and the owner and property manager were both so pleasant and helpful. Having coffee on the lanai in the morning was such a treat. I cannot recommend this enough, we'll be back!

Our family enjoyed our week long stay here for Spring Break. The home is spacious, well-equipped and cozy for relaxing after fun days of exploring. The kids enjoyed the 2 minute walk to the pool. We spent a few days packing up the car for the 5 minute drive to private beach. The house has all the beach gear to make your day enjoyable. It was very nice to have a 2 minute walk to Foodland so we could dine-in when we felt like relaxing. The hosts were very friendly and helpful for our stay. We will definitely return and stay at this property again. Thank you Luba and Randy!!

We had a lovely stay in Mauna Lani. This was our second vacation in Kona. Both times we stayed in this beautiful complex. The condo was wonderful and quiet. The only concern we had was that the beds didn’t have real comforters. They were thin like sheets. Each room came with an extra blanket, but it still wasn’t warm enough. We spoke to the property management company and asked for extra blankets. They didn’t get them to us for 2 1/2 days. It made for an uncomfortable sleeping experience this time around. Otherwise, everything was great.

This was a beautiful home - very comfortable. The only small bit of constructive criticism I would give is that it is terribly warm at night. I completely understand this is someone’s home and don’t want people taking advantage of air-conditioning, but with the air conditioning going no lower than 72 and plastic mattress protectors, it was nearly impossible to get a good nights sleep. The fan wasn’t very helpful - couldn’t feel the breeze and was wondering if it might be rotating the wrong way (noisy but I got used to it a few nights in - and it’s gorgeous !). Other than that slightly minor complaint -fantastic!!!! Thank you for letting us stay on your beautiful home.

Great house for 3 couples and 2 children. Each bedroom has an awesome en suite. Lots of room for everyone to be together as a group or to take some down time. Great kitchen, perfect layout etc. 5 minute walk to the pool which was never busy. Short drive to the beach club. Close to area attractions. Short walk to shopping, grocery store and Tommy’s. Lots of pool / beach toys, chairs and coolers in the garage. The only thing that could be improved upon would be the deck furniture. The outside kitchen was great
Marisa was excellent to work with and all of our requests were well looked after. Highly recommend her!

The property was pretty accurately described as advertised.
However the VRBO description that the owner holds any position to apply for any golfing discounts in behalf of rental guests, at Mauna Lani North/South Courses is misleading, come to find out thru prior arrival conversations with owner, the HOA for Mauna Lani , no longer allows home owner's to share this particular HO amenity. Unless home owner is part of the twosome/foursome playing. Big disappointment, since it states in house description it is possible. Even though we were prepared to pay full course prices.
Some of the snorkeling equipment failed but my husband was able to take parts from one set and use on another. This resulted in only one person at a time use.
There was six adults.
We all certainly had a great time staying in this lovely home. The bedrooms allowed three couples to have their own bedroom suites. Linens were comfortable, definitely not disappointing.
Many bbqs! Quiet local, backyard message worthy. Easy access to pool and fitness. Easy grocery shopping local.
Easy local to great restaurants.
Would stay here again. Will gladly refer other's looking for rental properties.
Thank you , Robert for making the six of us welcomed to your island home.

This is a fantastic condo on the Big Island. The location is terrific - right in the midst of the Mauna Lani resort area on the northwest coast. Good private and public sandy beaches and many restaurants and stores close by. The condo is beautiful decorated, looks new inside and impeccable clean. Beds are comfortable. Gated, quiet Villages neighborhood. Nice community pool well equipped workout gym within walking distance. The patio and balconies are nicely furnished and comfortable although the views are are of other neighbors’ condo and the garden-like landscape - not bad but not big views. I highly recommend it and would happily stay there again. It is the nicest VRBO I have ever rented.

We had a wonderful stay in the Villages at Mauna Lani. This is a gated property located within the greater Mauna Lani Resort. We utilized many of the amenities of the resort and enjoyed the closeness of the property to many other attractions along the west side of the island. The beach club was awesome, and we also did the Black Sand Beach within the community as well (Note - you have to pay $20 for parking, but it was well worth it!).
The home itself was very well maintained and stocked with everything from salt/pepper, condiments, bedding & towels, beach supplies, etc. We had my parents in the upstairs master, my wife and I in the downstairs master, and our kids (3.5 and 1.5 years old) in the other bedroom downstairs. It was the perfect set-up for us. We spent many mornings and evenings on the outside porch/lanai. The neighborhood pool and fitness center were an easy 8-minute walk from the house. The community is very nice and kept in impeccable condition.
We would definitely stay again. Thanks to Lex and Cheri for being uber-responsive and helpful during our visit!

In all, it was a massive disappointment upon arrival, and way below expectations, especially given the price which in more in keeping with high end luxury accommodation.

Comfortable house with plenty of space for 6 adults. Very clean with private Mauni Lani beach club access about 1+ mile away, or Hapuna Beach, about 10 min drive north. Excellent dining options at the nearby resorts including Napua (at the beach club), Canoe House at Auberge, Brown's at the Fairmont Resort. A short walk to Foodland supermarket for groceries and great Poke.
Easy check in and check out. Would definitely recommend this property to family & friends.

We really enjoyed staying at this property at Mauna Lani. We stayed here for two weeks and felt right at home the entire time. The kitchen was fully equipped and all appliances were functioning properly. The pool area and the entire resort is well maintained. We really enjoyed the quiet mornings and evenings on the lanai. The property manager was attentive to us during our stay. I would stay here again and highly recommend this property. Great value!

We had a wonderful stay in this beautifully appointed condo. Beautiful furniture, comfortable beds, nice bedding. Clearly designed and outfitted with adults in mind. Two master suites, each on a different floor, great for two couples. Responsive owners and local concierge. Highly recommend.
Bonuses for the sustainability minded: solar panels, zonal temperature controls, and ceiling fans. Bikes to easily travel around Mauna Lani resort.

We had an amazing stay at this property. Lisette was incredibly responsive to all of our questions/needs. The home is well stocked and had lots of toys for kids of all ages. The beach club was also incredibly convenient for a little one (8months old). We would love to come back and stay here again!

I would suggest that New larger beach towels be replaced with new larger ones. Only had 2 beach chairs for guests. Kitchen could definitely use more Pyrex dishes for baking meals. I think that a basic review of what guests needs in the kitchen would be helpful. Overall it’s a clean property and I would recommend it

The home was well stocked, immaculately clean and the host was super responsive. The layout was perfect for our 2 small families. The en suite in every bedroom was great and the rooms our super spacious. The only thing missing was a good supply of beach accessories and bikes that we’ve had in previous properties in HI. You can rent most anything though so it didn’t diminish our trip in the slightest but something to keep in mind and prepare for. We would definitely stay here again!

This was our first time staying in the Villages, and we found it be a great location on the Mauna Lani Resort. This property is extremely well appointed, with top-of-the-line furnishings and appliances.

Great space for our family to spread out and have our own privacy. Easy walk to the resort shops. Having access to the property's beach parking was great and the kids loved being at the pool. It was helpful to have a vehicle to drive to different locations. The townhome area was clean and quiet. Perfect for a chill vacation.

We rented this luxury residence for my wife and me and give family guests. It was our return to the Big Island after 30 years ! We could not have asked for a better place to stay. Located on the Mauna Lani Resort grounds, this beautiful home in a gated community served us very well. The home was beautifully decorated and well maintained. The owners keep a well stocked kitchen which made meals easy to prepare, a significant means to keep daily expenses down.
The Village private pool was well used as was access to the private beach club. The owners provided beach towels and beach gear which were used dail

The house is beautiful - just as advertised! It was well equipped, spacious and everything worked beautifully. Nice and quiet but walking distance to the pool, gym and groceries! We highly recommend it!

The location was great close to beautiful beaches, the Market, pool, and Tommy Bahamas restaurant made it easy to walk or use the golf cart.
The house was wonderful It was spacious, clean and was well stocked in the kitchen and the garage with all the items we need to enjoy the beach and pool. The home was in a quiet gated home community. Our family made wonderful memories of an e-bike ride in the Volcano National Park, a Luau on New Year’s Eve and Catamaran snorkeling trip where we saw whales breaching and dolphins.

Great house for 3 couples! Just as advertised. Great location for local stores and restaurants and golf! The host was great and made everything easy. Highly recommend this property!

The layout of the home allowed our family to enjoy time together, or time alone. It is located next door to the small mall so that you can grab a coffee, or groceries. It is further north than the Waikoloa area, but only by 10 minutes so it was not an issue for us.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Seabreeze property. It was very clean, well stocked, and the check in and out process was a breeze. The on-site pool and spa were a favorite of the kids and adults and the private beach just down the street was the perfect spot to snorkel and have a great lunch. With a store just around the corner and plenty of shopping down the street it was the perfect spot for everyone’s likes. We would definitely recommend Seabreeze to anyone looking for a fantastic family vacation.

This is a fabulous option for a 3-bedroom property in Mauna Lani. Of all the houses we have stayed in around this resort, this layout was our favourite. We loved the elevated lanai, the spacious rooms (all three) and the fact that each had an ensuite. Very reasonably priced. Highly recommend!

Nice home located within walking distance to The Shops but not really close enough to walk to the beach. The bed rooms are all ample except the twin bed room. Barry was a responsive and accommodating host.

This property is worth every penny ! We’ve stayed at many a short term rental and this one is far superior to all. Believe the pictures! We stayed for almost 4 weeks and let at home from the moment we walked in the house. The kitchen is top notch with anything amd everything available for those who love to cook. The layout of the house is perfect, the deck and grill and table are perfect for outdoor eating. Best of all are the nano doors that make the entire living area expansive and open air.
The access for the Muana Lani beach was a bonus- don’t miss the great snorkeling !
