Beach Villas are beautiful. We loved the lagoon! The mornings sitting on our lanai with the view of the ocean and listening to the birds singing was so relaxing!

First, Ko Olina Villas location is a great family vacation spot. It is a beautiful spot…quiet with calm beaches. Kio Olina Villas lagoon was the least busiest.
Second, the unit was awesome. It was very clean with many cooking tools. The rooms were perfect for our family. Spacious! Loved it!

We recently had the pleasure of staying at Lanelle’s property in Hawaii, and it was nothing short of magical. The rental itself was immaculate, tastefully decorated with a perfect blend of modern luxury and island charm.
The spacious, open-concept living area made us feel right at home with large windows that let in an abundance of natural light. The fully-equipped kitchen had everything we needed to prepare delicious meals, which we enjoyed on the lanai.
In every way, the villa exceeded our expectations. It was a perfect retreat that allowed us to experience the best of Hawaii in luxury and comfort. We can’t wait to return and highly recommend this rental to anyone looking for an unforgettable Hawaiian getaway.

Our Family of 5 adults and our 2 yr old granddaughter could not have asked for a more ideal setting with every amenity one could think of. Being on the ground floor was perfect of our granddaughter with the lawn just off the lanai allowing her to romp to her hearts content. The set up of the condo was also ideal with separate climate controls. Access to the beach and the pools/ grills/ bar were also within steps of our condo. So, so impressed with your condo and the Beach Villas staff and hospitality. This will be our go to Hawaiian destination for years to come.

My family and I stayed for a week and had a wonderful time. With two kids, ages 2 and 5, the property location was ideal, being on the ground floor (little one is a climber). The pools and lagoon are minutes away, making our daily swim sessions super easy. We found the property to be clean, well stocked, and exactly as advertised. The hosts were very responsive and checking in was breeze. We most definitely would love to return here one day, everyone had a great time.

This was a beautiful home to stay in .Lovely garden view and steps from beach. This was more than we expected plenty of space for everyone. We all had our own room and bathroom. Everything we needed in kitchen and we had access to grills and more space and kitchen by the pools. We had such a relaxing time and looking forward to next time.

Beautiful Villa with lovely surroundings and the ocean just steps away. The pool and grounds were amazing and we enjoyed the lagoon, perfect for swimming. The villa had everything we could possibly need. Everything clean and beds comfy. We really enjoyed our stay and definitely would rent here again!

This condo was perfect for our family- we had a toddler and a baby along with grandparents and there was plenty of space for all of us. This is so well set up for kids with a high chair and booster seat, mini crib, tons of beach toys, and so much more! My daughter loved playing in the large grassy area, which is shaded from the sun for most of the day. This means that the condo itself is a little dark inside, but it was a win for us not having to worry about sunscreen every time we stepped outside! The beach is not crowded at all, and many restaurants and shops are easily walkable. We definitely plan to return!

If you were looking for the perfect place in Ko Olina your search is over! Lanelle was amazing to communicate with and quick to answer any and all questions. The unit seriously has everything you need…if you were thinking of packing it, just leave it home because it’s already there! Perfectly situated on the quiet side of the beach villas, and the grassy area was the perfect space for our boys to play. They loved the pool and it’s just steps from Honu Lagoon (the least busy!) Also a most convenient location if you are looking at exploring the rest of the island. Seriously can’t say enough amazing things about our stay in this comfortable unit. We will definitely be back!

Overall great place to stay. This was condo-style with a low key beach and nice pool. A bit “rules-y” like you would expect with an HOA (think “violations” for towels on the patio and car tire 2mm on the white line parking spot), but that was tolerable. I liked it a lot. Good for families but also walking distance to restaurants and nearby hotels.

Being on the main floor was ideal with 2 little ones. Having a patio that extended out to the grass was ideal! It extended the living space 2-fold! And getting to the pool and beach was quick and easy.
The owners have provided so many accommodations too! From a crib to high chair to toys and books/games. As well as ample beach towels and toys!
Lastly the location on the island was ideal to get to all the “must-see sights”!
We would stay there again!

We really enjoyed our stay. The villa was perfect for our group of 6, ranging in age from 1 to 76! The first floor location was really a benefit and we used the lanai a lot. The kitchen and dining/family area was great. The additional amenities including the crib/sand toys/videos were also greatly appreciated. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!

This was our second time renting from Lanelle. We love her unit because it well stocked with kitchen items, bedding, beach toys, just to name a few. We also love the ground unit and quick access to the pool and beach. Lanelle was super quick to respond to any questions we had.
We had 14 people in our family staying in the Beach Villas. Three adults and 3 kids in our unit and next door were the grandparents and cousins and other family in another unit. The Beach Villas are very family friendly. The pool is great for the kids and the lagoons are safe for kids to swim in. We were able to get professional pictures taken just right outside the Villas by the beach. Everything was so amazing about this vacation. We will definitely be coming back to rent with Lanelle!

Our family loved Lanelle’s property. We felt like we were staying at an exclusive resort! Everything was immaculate. The proximity to the lagoon and pool made it possible for us to dip our toes in the water daily! We also loved that it was on the main floor, with a nearby parking space. After a long day of hiking waterfall trails, it was nice to get to the air conditioning quickly and easily. Lanelle and her team were responsive to every question and were gracious enough to return some items my husband left in a dresser after we checked out (including his car keys!) Thank you!

We loved our stay in Oahu. The room was very clean and had everything you could think of. We didn’t need to bring sand toys, beach stuff, crib, high chair, or even a stroller. We were very impressed. The location also can’t be beat. Just walking distance to the beach! Will definitely be back.

We loved this splendid set up, with lagoons for swimming and snorkeling. Villa very lovely, quality in most aspects. Enjoyed music in the late afternoons by the bar area.
We had issues with appliances however. Wine cooler was broken, dishwasher also broke down. Maintenance people came often to fix things. I think all appliances need to be gone over so they are functional. We had to hand wash dishes for 8 people which kept us busy.
Mahalo!

My husband and I were celebrating our 20 year wedding anniversary with our 4 children (ages 8,11,14, and 16). The Beach Villas at Ko Olina was the perfect location!! The Lagoon was a short walking distance and the perfect place for our kids to play on the beautiful beach and in the clear water. The neighborhood was incredible safe while being walking distance to Roy's, Monkeypod, Paradise Cove Luau, Island Vintage Coffee, etc. We loved being on the ground floor so our kids could play outside while we cooked dinner. We used the lanai everyday to enjoy the beautiful Hawaiian weather. Everyone at the resort was incredibly friendly and helpful. The lagoon and resort were quiet and not over crowded at all. Would highly recommend staying here!

We had an incredible time at this condo! It’s location and proximity to the pool and lagoon was so convenient. It is also great that it was walking distance to the Marriott, Four Seasons, and Aulani resorts and the other lagoons. The condo had everything we needed for the trip with a baby and two young children- a crib (which we kept in the large primary bedroom closet), high chair, beach necessities, and even dominos to play. All the kids loved playing in the beautiful green space right outside the sliding doors. Lanelle was very responsive and we had the best time. Highly recommend!

This was such a great place to stay with extended family. We were there to celebrate my dad's 75th birthday and there was plenty of room for everyone. The condo was very clean. We generally tend not to wear shoes at home and the condo passed our white sock test (socks were not dirty after walking through the condo)! All in all, it was a lovely stay!

We loved our family getaway in this well-appointed condo. The facilities are gorgeous and the condo was roomy and clean with high-end appliances. There were beach towels, chairs, and toys for the best part of this location, the lagoons. My children snorkeled almost every day in the safe lagoons and we even rented paddleboards. My favorite part was waking up early to have coffee on the patio and then going for a two-mile walk where I wandered along with all the other resorts in Ko Olina. I even saw a Hawaiian Monk Seal one day (he was on the beach resting). I loved being able to walk out to everything directly through our patio (ground floor). However, because it's on the ground floor you aren't able to directly see the ocean from the unit (if that is important to you). However, the ocean is very close and you can hear it! I preferred the easy access and having the green lawn as an extension of our unit for my boys to play soccer and catch.
We were able to travel to all of the other sites on the island easily and Costco, Target, etc. were just one exit up on the highway. Parking was super easy in the below-ground structure. We had an issue with the laundry machine, but the local contact was very helpful and made sure we had extra towels until it was fixed.
We would absolutely return to this beautiful home!

We had the best family vacation we've ever had thanks to this perfect family condo. Parents, Grandparents, a teen, a kid, a toddler and an infant were all comfortable. The beach, the pools, the room, the location, the wifi, washer and dryer, instapot, rice cooker, high chair, crib, snorkels, beach chairs, beach towels, parking, location to the trash chute and elevators. All of these conveniences made a difference. The pool was quite cold but everything else was second to none.
We never wanted to leave and will definitely return.

We had a great stay in this condo! We changed plans when the home we were going to stay at sold and couldn’t have had a better stay!
You never know exactly what to buy/bring and this condo had it all! A beach bag, beach towels, species, paper towels, toilet paper, beach chairs, snorkel masks and so much more!
Our stay was so comfortable with 4 adults and an 11 year old.
The location of the unit is great, while we didn’t have an ocean view, we had the bottom floor location and a short walk to the beach. Birds singing outside the sliding glass door to wake us up in song every morning.
The pools and girls were easy to get to and easy to use. We divided our time between the pool and the lagoon.
We took walks everyday around Ko Olina, the condo location is a perfect getaway!

Loved staying here. The communication was great and any questions I had prior to arriving were quickly responded to. Having a little one, it was nice that there was also a crib, AND a pack-n-play. They also had sand toys for her to play with, as well as a stroller for walks to the restaurants and stores. The unit itself was clean and seemed to be well taken care of! Everything was labeled and organized for where things go. Would easily stay here again!

My family (4 adults, 1 toddler and 1 infant) and I rented this condo in December for a little pre Christmas vacation. Lanelle could not have been nicer and more communicative with all of my questions about the condo. The listing was perfectly described and well photographed, tastefully decorated with ample storage space and every amenity you could ask for, down to children's plates and silverware and two storage boxes full of sand toys! We had a blast with the open floor plan and open doors to the lawn area! We were so impressed with the Ko Olina area and calm beach lagoons for the kids. Loved the proximity to the Aulani Resort and their amenities (including stand up paddleboard rentals, which was fabulous!) and being just far enough away from the crowds of Honolulu. Highly recommend this location!! Thank you again!!

We stayed here for a week with our a 1.5 year old and friends of ours who have a 2.5 year old. This vacation rental could not have been more perfect for us. The unit is beautiful. It had the luxury of a nice hotel with the comforts of home. This was a perfect place for more than one family (tons of room and great communal space) and for children. I am sure it would be enjoyable without children too, but as any parent knows vacation can be stressful with a small child. Both of our little ones did so well because of the amazing space, location, and all of the toys provided. We barely had to bring any toddler gear, the owner thought of everything! The kiddie pool and lagoon/beach were fantastic. Being on the ground floor was really convenient for trips to the pool and beach and the ground floor lanai space was great for the little ones to play in the morning or afternoon while the grown ups sat and drank coffee or took a break. So relaxing.
Also, the location is really convenient. We had a rental van so we did do some traveling around the island for various things. However, that was only a few times and once you are here I think you could get away with not using a car during your stay (depending on what you wanted to do). We were able to attend a luau, the disney character breakfast and the spa, and dinner out at some nice restaurants without any driving.
Also, the owner had excellent communication and responded promptly to all questions that I had and provided great information to make our stay smooth and enjoyable.
We were so happy we chose this particular vacation rental and would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Our three generation family spent seven wonderful nights in this beach villa. It was beyond our expectations. This is a very nice, well maintained villa in an outstanding resort. It was convenient to the lagoon, pools, and beach walk. This villa & resort made our stay in Hawaii a true visit to paradise. We plan to return and will definitely stay at this villa.

We visited Lanelle's condo in June with our 3 boys (ages 15, 13, 7). It was the best of all worlds. We benefited from a hotel-resort feel with access to 24-hour concierge, beach towel service, fitness room, pool bar, etc. The grounds were fabulous -- we could want for nothing as far as pools, hot tubs, amenities, proximity to the beach, all while maintaining a sophisticated & luxurious atmosphere. The condo is on the 1st floor, making it easy for our family to meander to the pool or the beach without traipsing through a lobby or elevator. The condo was appointed beautifully. We used the kitchen only for breakfast & lunch prep, but it would have been more than adequate for full dinners as well. Grills & tables around the pool were notable, although we did not take advantage of the perk (we'll need to come back to do so!). We had plenty of room. Our 2 youngest sons shared a room and guest bath, while our oldest son had his own bed/bath suite. Our master suite was spacious, with doors to the lanai. The Beach Villas at Ko'Olina are situated amongst the biggest & most posh resorts. IMHO, the lagoon on which it is situated is the best of the 4 lagoons. In walking between resorts, from lagoon to lagoon, we were so glad to be at an appreciably uncrowded beach/lagoon. The view to the ocean is a side view from the lanai, but is lovely, with the sunset clearly visible each night. And, the lush spread of green grass alongside the lanai and en route to the pool/beach was like having a beautiful private yard (we rarely saw anyone on the grass). The only odd occurrence during our stay concerned the grass/grounds. Strangely, about 4 days into our stay, we left early AM for an excursion. When we returned, the ENTIRE lawn was brown. Even small patches of grass around the landscaped pool areas were brown & dead. Lawn maintenance had been ongoing, and I assume they aerated &/or thrashed, leaving the lawn looking (temporarily?) dead. We were astounded in the overnight change from green to brown! Upon query, the concierge was oblivious. Being on the ground floor made the change quite dramatic versus a condo on a higher floor, I presume. We would have been somewhat disappointed if the lawn had been brown at the outset. That emerald green grass made a magical impact on arrival. We remained puzzled for our last few days, but it did not dampen our overall experience. I assume the grass is back to normal, & the change was due to maintenance coinciding with our stay.

This villa was fantastic. Lanelle was a pleasure to work with. She helped in everyday possible way and answered e-mails in a timely manner.
The villa is equipped with everything you need for the pool, beach or water activities. The kitchen has all the amenities needed. All you need to bring is the food which is close by. The villa is very spacious. We visited with 6 adults, four being in their early 20's. We had a wonderful time at the villa and hope to rent again in the future.

We spent the Holidays at Lanelle's lovely condo with our entire family. Another bunch stayed in the Ocean Towers at another condo, but we chose to return to this unit so that we would have a place for us all to gather. This is our third visit and we had as much fun and enjoyed the luxury just as much as our previous visits. The entire resort area is fantastic, with new restaurants and shops opening each time we return. The lagoons are beautiful and a great place to swim. Both pools at the Beach Villas are fantastic. My husband swims laps every morning in the lap pool and we all walk the 3 mile path each morning. Great Sunsets, the staff was very nice and I just can't imagine a better place to relax. Don't miss Roy's for a great meal. We hope to return again soon.
September 2012
We loved our stay at this vacation home. Everything we needed was already in the home. It was very comfortable and relaxing. The rooms were nice and clean. It was no different than staying at a five star hotel except it was bigger and closer to the beach. We hope to come back real soon. We highly recommend this vacation home.

We have been to Honolulu a number of times, but this was our first visit to Ko Olina and we absolutely loved the resort and the beach villas. We traveled with a total of 4 adults and 2 children. The villa was very spacious and our kids (4 yrs & 22 mths old) especially loved the nearby lagoon and running around in the grassy lawn area just beyond our lanai. It was like having a giant backyard and it was comforting to know that the lawn area was secure. The unit was very kid-friendly, which made it the perfect place for us. Lanelle was a wonderful host and she was very helpful in answering any questions we had while planning our vacation. Our family would definitely stay here again and we are already looking forward to our next visit!

Just returned from a wonderful week in this great condo. It was perfect for our needs -- a family gathering including a 4 year old, teenagers and the grandparents. This unit was ideal and well-suited for our various individual interests. The pools, lanai, grassy area, beach access were all so convenient and our days were completely stress-free. We walked along the beachwalk daily and enjoyed some of the restaurants at the neighboring resorts. Other nights we stayed in and cooked in the condo's well-equipped kitchen.
Ko Olina is a lovely development; very family friendly. We will undoubtedly return to this "home away from home" in paradise.
Mahalo, Lanelle, for making this process so easy, as well as your attentive and timely customer service throughout.
February 2012
Our three-generation family (including two boys - six and three) spent eight days in this beautiful, well-appointed, and well-maintained condo. We all loved the layout, particularly being on the ground floor with wide doors opening to a roomy patio, then lots of grass used by the boys to 'play' soccer and frisbee, and to take the scenic route to the beach, pools, hot tubs, or BBQ grills. The beach toys, snorkeling gear, mats, and chairs were much used and appreciated. When the three-year-old got tired on a walk, we were glad to have the umbrella stroller.
The four lagoons, each with a fine beach, are beautiful and so accessible (in fact, the whole area is fairly low density, which is nice). Our six-year-old saw two turtles while lagoon snorkeling! We left the area only one day, a car trip to the North Shore.
The owner was very helpful and prompt in answering questions a number of times.
All of us are really jonesing to come again to this condo.
