Beautiful views of the golf course with the ocean in the background. Wonderful island breeze kept us cool!

We love waikoloa village and have stayed there several times. The condo was clean and well stocked, thoughtfully laid out and the view is great. Mahalo!

The property was as pictured and described. We were not there much. But, the evenings were cool so the no air-conditioning didn't bother us. The lanai was our favorite. If you have heavy suitcases the stairs to the unit may be an issue.

The property was great and very nice, this place had everything that we needed or could possibly need except we did not know that there was not any Air conditioning. Lots of fans but it was a little on the warm side. Management was over the top accommodating and I would give this place top ratings! Great experience.

We enjoyed our stay very much! The location was great for getting to beaches and it wasn't a super long drive to Kona or Hilo. The property had lots of little touches that we appreciated like boogie boards, snorkeling equipment and cooking seasoning. It's the little things that help! We enjoyed hanging by the pool and hot tub in the evening. I would recommend!

We enjoyed early mornings on the lanai watching the golfers and birds. There were plenty of dishes and flatware to have our whole family over for a couple meals. Overall the condo was very comfortable and with the cross draft was surprisingly cool.

We stayed at Waikoloa Village to participate in an Ironman. The quiet atmosphere was appreciated. However, the welcome book had only the bylaws of the condo association, no details of the pool location or access, no WIFI code. We reported the lack of WIFI and were told to look again! Finally once I was angry the agent relented to give us the code in a text. As for the pool facilities we did not bother calling. On day three we saw an employee who helped us out.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Alles in allem eine gute Unterkunft!Bedingt durch die Bauweise hört man allerdings die Schritte aus der Wohnung darüber. Ohne Klimaanlage war es auch sehr warm.Die Lage und der Blick in den Sonnenuntergang sind sehenswert.Die Ausstattung der Wohnung ist gut.

We flew for 10 1/2 hours from New Jersey another hour at the airport and another half hour to get to the location. Wrong code was given property manager never return my call during trying to call her for the correct code on site property person used his own key to get Us in before nightfall besides that everything was excellent, including the location and the amenities. I only say it the way it is.

The pictures on VRBO did not prepare us for the incredible view from this unit. Due to breathing issues, I can't lie down when sleeping, so I was lucky enough to be able to sleep in one of the comfortable recliners in the living room and wake each morning to the beauty of the Hawaiian sunrise over the ocean. It was magical. And the care with which the unit was furnished, its perfect location near shopping and beaches -- everything made our trip perfect. There was also a fantastic supply of bed linens! Two inconveniences: 1) There were excellent appliances in the kitchen, but we were hampered by a lack of basic cooking supplies. 2) The pool and hot tub are located in what forms a kind of amphitheater that amplifies sound directly to the unit. Even when people were trying to be quiet, we could hear most of what they said. Fortunately for us, most of the residents and visitors were very quiet people. Unfortunately, there were a few who weren't.

Beautifully invested golf course and garden. Well organized condo, which needs major renovation. Cockroaches were present, unfortunately.

May 2024

This property was perfect. Newly renovated with top notch features and was reasonably priced. Very quiet even with the air conditioning on. The harbor view was great with gorgeous sunsets. No fuss checkin and checkout. I highly recommend this vacation rental.

My wife and I stayed in this condo for 3 weeks. Great location on the golf course. The unit had everything we needed for a great holday ... beach chairs, umbrella, insulated cooler bag, boogie boards, snorkel gear and even a decent set of golf clubs. Kitchen had everything that we needed. The king size bed was of good quality providing us with a good rest at the end of our fun filled days. Our host, Kerrie, was responsive and accomodating.

My wife and I usually stay one of the big ocean side resorts, decided to try VRBO. Waikoloa Village is different, quiter and little cooler weather. The condo was awesome, reminded us of our own condo in the mountains. Super clean, all the amenities, everything was easy. Staying at a condo away from resort made us get out and explore more, and we found new things to do even though it was our 6th time on the Big Island. Awesome vacation.

The condo was exactly as pictured which we greatly appreciated. It had everything we needed and the location was perfect for our stay. The pool was wonderful after a long day of exploring and the complex was very quiet. The host was very helpful when I reached out with questions. We would definitely stay here again.

We have stayed in many condos on the Big Island for over 25 years, so have a pretty good idea of what constitutes a nice place. The only pro we could find was the location and the quietness of the unit. All else in condo is in high need of an update. I would not recommend to anyone.
David E.
April 2024

The bathrooms are super tiny. Other than that, I loved how things were available for us to use. Such as floaters and stuff for the kids, a ball, an air fryer, rice cooker, some condiments, a small mirror, pods and dryer sheets to wash clothes. I loved the price and the amount of space it had for us as a family. The loft was my fave and that there were 3 bathrooms. Even with no AC, I'd stay here again. It was windy there and a lot of fans were available.

April 2024

This location is probably the quietest place I've stayed in Hawaii. The plants outside the lanai on the ground floor make it feel like you're living outside. There isn't any air conditioning or heat in the unit, but we stayed comfortable in April with the ceiling fan. It was probably about 75 degrees in the unit most of the time. There are only windows on one side, so you can't get a cross breeze to help cool it off. We left the louvered windows open at night. You may wake up to the sound of sprinklers in the middle of the night if you do that though. The bed was comfortable and we slept well. We would stay here again.

Surface cleaning was acceptable but the unit needs a deep spring clean; lights, fans, upholstery and carpet on stairs to loft. The local Vacasa agent was helpful and responsive to my texts.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My stay in this condo was great! The area was beautiful and the condo was very clean & well equipped with normal household items (pots & pans, linens, etc). It was very enjoyable to wake up with such a view every morning. It was also very peaceful. I can’t wait to stay again!!

Stayed 6 nights with family. Quiet neighborhood but close enough to all the beaches and attractions while still providing space for kids to have their space. Golf club pool is also very nice

This condo was exactly as described! Beds were very comfortable, it had EVERYTHING you could ever need or want in the kitchen, the outdoor locker was stocked with beach supplies, parking was convenient and the complex (while older) worked for my family… pools were clean, warm and unbusy! Golf was close, there is a local grocery store close and the location is only a short drive from the beach!!!
Toby M.
April 2024

We were very happy with our stay in this home! The house was very clean and cozy, and I really appreciated how well stocked it was with any useful items one might need! They had beach gear, plenty of towels, including beach towels, blankets, pillows, kitchen essentials, you name it! The host was easy to work with, and very responsive. Check-out procedures were very simple. The home was only about a 15 minute drive to the nearest beaches, and it was on a nice, quaint, golf course with nearby grocery, and a couple of restaurants, if you don’t want to make the 30 minute drive to Kona. There is a shared community pool in the backyard, with a hot tub and nice covered area with community BBQ grills, refrigerator, sink, and counter space, and tables to enjoy dinner outdoors/pool time together with the family.

This condo isn’t fancy but has all the essentials. We appreciated how clean it was. Sunsets were nice. Nice calm neighborhood too.

April 2024

We were extremely happy with the rental!! The check-in process was so easy and check out was absolutely fantastic. Contact with the owner was perfect! Easy, fast, friendly It had absolutely everything we needed, all the beach equipment was so huge for us and so so nice. The house is stocked with everything you need which cuts down on spending so much money with the cost of eating out. The place felt like home super comfortable Grocery store is super close nearby which is so very convenient. The most amazing beaches on the island were just 15 to 25 minutes away. The rental was really central to so many locations under an hour to go to Mount Loa sunset and star gazing, and up the north coast to the Pololu hike, or drive to Captain Cook Monument to do the hike to the snorkelling. And 40 minutes to the night manta ray snorkeling boat launch. And only 30 minutes to the airport We highly recommend it and would definitely come back.

I typically spend a month each year escaping the Alaska winter to dive in Hawaii. Jon's condo was very nice and a convenient location for shopping, eating and diving. I loved being on the ground floor and the lanai was a great place to relax.

We stayed a week in February 2024. The condo was great. Very spacious, backing onto golf course. A bit dated but the price is totally worth it! Everything you need is there. Beaches are a short drive away.

April 2024

Our visit to the Big Island was great. The place was super. We had only one suggestion and that was to do a quick clean before new arrivals. It felt like the dust and floor grit was just because the place may have been empty for a while before we arrived. One other suggestion provide a swiffer or some floor mop for the patio. We wanted to clean it but there wasn’t an easy way. Mahalo and many thanks, Christie

Overall this property is great, especially the particular location of this unit- quick walk to the pool (outdoor bbqs and a fridge are there), as well as a beautiful view of the golf course. This ground floor unit is great for small children, they would run around the golf course during sunset and loved watching for the wild turkeys and goats. The location means you have to drive a lot (beaches, ice cream etc) but it is certainly a beautiful spot. The unit is well stocked with everything you need. We really appreciated having sand toys and chairs so we didn’t need to buy these items when we arrived. Only complaint is that there was no pack and play, and the cost to rent was quite high (I could have bought a new one for the cost of 9 days).

The location was exactly as described and depicted in the listing. Cleaning was very impeccable. The location and complex and amenities were wonderful. The unit itself is dated as seen in the photos. Cleaning was great. However every morning there were cockroaches in the dishwasher. And there were only fans provided for cooling the condo Down. And signs one the main sliding glass Door not to use the screen due to mice problems. So the condo was very warm and uncomfortable. But the condo is exactly as advertised. And Pleased.
