This was our second stay at this condo, our first being in 2017, and this visit was just as great as the first. The condo itself was well equipped, from kitchen supplies to lots of beach gear (coolers, chairs, snorkel gear, etc.). The condo was clean and comfortable. The pool area is lovely for a quiet afternoon, and never seemed busy. Access to the beach club is great, easy parking, great restaurant, and perfect for a morning walk around the fish ponds. Our family really enjoyed staying here and we hope to visit again soon!

The condo was perfect for my week stay North of Kona. It was very clean and my bed was comfortable. Neighbors were nice, property and pool was nice and close to beaches, shopping and restaurants. Had a lot of extras like box fan, snorkel equipment, beach chairs, beach towels, etc. Some of the electrical outlets didn’t work, but I didn’t have a problem with having enough light and use of kitchen equipment overall. Costs extra if you want to sleep in AC so I decided not to run the AC much, and it ended up being fine. I did get hot sometimes but the ceiling fans took care of cooling the rooms down. Overall I was happy with this condo and would return!

We had a wonderful stay at this location. Steve and Karen were very helpful and available in case anything came up. We loved being so close to the pool, which was great for kids but not noisy at all. Having access to the beach club was also a highlight. The condo was stocked with anything we might need. We hope to stay again in future trips.

I was impressed with the kitchen. Have stayed at other golf villas with less in the way of glasses, cookware etc. Had all we needed and appreciated the beach items in the closet. The location is very nice. Perfect place to stay for a few days.

Great property in a great location but what made the difference here is Steve and Karen. They’re highly communicative with guests before and during the stay. Their local guide is great and they even were giving us a “heads up” about local events pre and during our stay. They really care about their guests. We’ll be back for sure.

We enjoyed our stay. Steve was easy to communicate with. He gave us good tips of the area. The condo has everything you need for the beach.: chairs, snorkel gear, towels, coolers, sand toys. The private beach access is fabulous. You do have to drive a few minutes to get there.
The condo is clean and beds comfortable. We would defiantly stay here again.

This was my family’s second time staying at the Mauna Lani Golf Villas, although the first time in this particular unit. The layout and amenities in both the unit and common areas (fully stocked kitchen, washer/dryer, lanai with outdoor kitchen, beautifully designed pool, proximity to Mauna Lani Beach Club, etc.) are ideal for my husband and me, a long with our 4 year old son. Excellent communication from start to finish with the owner. I am very particular about cleanliness and was pleasantly surprised at how clean the unit was upon check in and how easy it was to keep it that way during our nearly 2 week stay by having access to a great vacuum and cleaning supplies. Thanks, Steve and Karen, for a wonderful stay!

Steve and Karen were amazing to rent through - very communicative and caring. They went out of their way to make sure we knew about local events that could impact rental car bookings etc, and were a call away when issues arose.

We had a wonderful time, great condo complex. Nice and quiet. The only downfall was the AC 3 hour daily limit. It was 85-90 degrees while I was there and I was worried to use the AC because I didn't want to forget it was on and lose any of my deposit. I don't think that info was in the original description.

This property is amazing! Clean, well equipped, amazing amenities, access to a nearby private beach with amazing snorkeling opportunities. And Steve and Karen are top rated hosts. Very responsive and accommodating. Thanks for allowing us to spend a wonderful vacation in your well cared for property. We'll be back for sure!

Our family of four had a wonderful stay at this condo! It had everything we needed - beach towels and chairs were such a nice addition. It was nice and convenient to cool off in the pool, also loved the private beach access and restaurant there. Our only complaint is that we wish there were better walking/running paths to get to beach and water from the villas. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

We've owned a condo on Ohau, and visit ohana on the Big Island several times a year and this is the perfect place to stay! Steve and Karen are a pleasure to deal with, the condo is exactly what you're looking for and what you want, and the location...If you like an uncrowded beach just 2 min away within a quiet safe community, Mauna Lani is dakine! This is our 2nd time staying at this unit and now I've found my home away from home.

The space worked out well for our family of four with two young kids. Everything is a short drive away, and you can literally see the pool from the backyard which we visited often.
The AC and dishwasher were broken when we arrived, but Steve was very proactive about getting things fixed (even installing a new dishwasher), so we were able to enjoy the majority of our vacation with all appliances working.
Plenty of beach chairs, beach towels, sand toys, snorkel gear, and umbrellas as well as a well stocked kitchen. We particularly appreciated how many tupperware containers there were to store leftovers.
Despite the rocky start with the broken appliances, we had a good time, and Steve did a great job to make things as easy for us as possible.

Spacious and clean. Had all the necessities. Close to pool and gym. The owners/handyman were very responsive. Beautiful development and it was extremely quiet. The only downside was that the unit was a bit warm, however, and it was a bit challenging to cool it down but we did stay there in the summer. Overall, it was a very nice property

Washer dryer didn’t work for first 41/2 weeks toaster didn’t work lights in bathroom above vanity didn’t. Work and the remote for the television was iffy. The guest bedroom was wall to wall beds and the closet was not useable If you like air conditioning I would not recommend
this place. Over all I would not stay at this place. Again. The location was nice but not sure the pot smoking next door was needed

This is a perfect condo to enjoy a relaxing stay on the Big Island. Very close to the beautiful pool, a short drive to the private beach, and close to other wonderful beaches in the area. Communication with host was great and their flexibility was appreciated. I highly recommend families staying here, but not perfect for children under 5 (no stool for sinks, etc.). We will definitely want to book again in the future.

Prior to taking off for our trip The property owners emailed details for flying in to make everything smoother. Without those details we would have had long wait times and a harder time getting to the property from the airport. Checking in was easy and the key process was easy. They even have a motion sensored light to help with getting into the condo. The place was very well cleaned and set up nicely. Every detail has been thought of for staying here down to reusable bags to reduce waste on the island (which we were appreciative of). The communication was immaculate and I knew we were in great hands. The private beach club was fantastic, it was very easy for snorkeling and access to the water. There is a black sand beach on the property you can also visit. There was never a lack of something to do. The foodland grocery shop is withing a 4 min drive and a 20 min walk. This place was everything we were hoping for our holiday. 10/10 on all levels of communication, the property, ease and access of the property and the snorkel and beach gear that was provided. We will be staying here when available for our future trips!

This condo is an ideal property for those looking to capitalize on the beauty and luxury of the Kohala coast.

The property owners Steve and Karen were absolutely amazing in making this visit perfect. The communication was timely, helpful and detailed. The unit was lovely! The unit was steps away from the pool and a short walk/drive to the private beach. Everything one needs was found here for a stay in paradise! Mahalo

My party of 4 stayed at this Golf Villas location for a week. It was stocked with all the beach toys we needed for the adults as well as for my 7-yr old daughter. Access to the private beach was definitely a plus as we were able to stop there after a busy day to unwind. The rental was very clean and super comfortable. Owner Steve was very helpful and prompt with replies to any of my questions. This is a great rental to relax in!

Stop reading the reviews and book this place before someone else does!! This property is the best combination of location, quality, amenities, service and ownership we have ever experienced. Perfectly located in the Mauna Lani grounds near shopping, restaurants, golf and more the condo is both high quality and beautifully appointed. The kitchen has EVERYTHING and the beach toys are endless. A short walk finds you at the pool and the gym. The piece de resistance, however, is access to the private owners beach. Shaded parking, chaise lounges and a perfect crescent of sand awaits. You can rent equipment there, grab a drink or bite at the restaurant, or snorkel off the beach in the clear blue water. Paradise!! This condo is really the whole package with responsive owners who make the stay perfectly memorable. Enjoy!!

Beautiful, beautiful condo and area. Our first time to this island and we weren’t disappointed. Steven and Karen kept in contact asking how our check in went, to suggesting what to do that was coming up while we were here. The condo is so spacious, clean and the kitchen had everything we needed. I loved that the pool and work out area were just across the grassy area. We used that a lot. The private beach is very close and stunning. We had a late flight and they allowed us to stay until we needed to leave! So, so very generous and kind...we didn’t feel homeless the last day and appreciated it so much. All I can say is this is a real gem and our family loved it. Mahalo.

Steve and Karen,
The accommodations were great. The place was very nice. All the kitchen ware was nicely setup and was the best for preparing our meals and barbecuing on the lanai. The beach towels and lounge chairs were also so convenient for the everyday at the ocean.
Thank you very much for making our stay very enjoyable!

This place had everything our family of 5 needed for the perfect vacation rental. Karen and Steve made it very comfortable for our stay! It was the perfect distance to some of the most beautiful beaches and snorkeling we have seen. The owners have thought of everything and have the place packed full of "extras." (beach towels, boogie boards, beach bags, coolers, hair dryer) It was nice having local Kona coffee waiting for us on our arrival. Such a nice treat! The Figgins are what make this place truly special. They were always wonderful with their communication and are in contact with you almost immediately when you email or phone them. Rest easy if you decide to rent from them! They will make sure you have everything you need. This was the perfect place to stay and we hope to be back soon to explore more of this great island!

We just returned from enjoying a wonderful 13 night stay at this property and we could not have been happier with the condo. It was a perfect home away from home. We traveled with our two daughters, one a teenager and one a preteen. They loved having their own beds in their bedroom, as well as their own television and bathroom. We all had plenty of space to spread out when we were hanging out in the condo. The nearby grocery store had a wonderful selection of items that were perfect for bringing back and throwing on the condo's grill. The owner's beach was a great facility that we enjoyed on more than one occasion. When we ventured out to other nearby beaches, the condo's beach gear was incredibly handy. The condo pool and hot tub were absolutely wonderful in the evenings... a perfect place to unwind.
My husband and I played the South Course at Mauna Lani and it was positively our best golf outing ever! The views just can't be beat and the course is wonderfully manicured.
The Big Island had so many beautiful and amazing adventures to offer our family. On several occasions, my husband remarked that we could not have picked a better place to stay. We all loved everything the condo had to offer and would recommend this location to anyone looking to enjoy a stay on the Big Island. Steve and Karen were an absolute dream to work with and were more than accommodating.

Our family of 2 adults and 2 adult children enjoyed every aspect of this condo! Great layout, tastefully and comfortably decorated, pristinely maintained, all top appliances and tv's, internet, well stocked kitchen and bathrooms... everything that we needed. Loved the convenient location. The owner has taken care of every detail. Pool and workout room were right out the back door. We couldn't be happier! Thanks owners for sharing your beautiful luxurious spot with us! Look forward to going back again soon!

We had a great time at the Figgins' condo at the Golf Villas. The rental process was very smooth and communication was great. The unit was very well furnished and had everything needed to cook and barbecue. There were lots of spices as well that really helped with our meals. In addition, everything needed for the beach was there also ... beach chairs, boogie boards and even Steve's new snorkel set. Our kids realy enjoyed everything, especially the pool that was just a 1 minute walk across the backyard. The private beach was also amazing for safe water fun and a comfortable cabana. We had a great time and everything was super clean and comfortable. You can't go wrong in staying here.

We thoroughly enjoyed our 10 nights in this beautiful condo. It was very comfortable and accommodating. The complex was beautifully maintained and very quiet. Plenty of parking, quick and easy access to the golf, shops, food.
We LOVED swimming and snorkeling at the private beach. The water was so clear!
The full functional kitchen made it easy to cook and eat-in during our stay.
The owners were fantastic to deal with.
Thank you for opening your home to us! We will definitely recommend it to others.

Hello Steve and Karen -
We wanted to thank you for a wonderful 10 days in your lovely condo. The accommodations were perfect, weather was gorgeous and we were able to completely relax. The location of your unit was perfect for us to be able to go to the pool and come easily back to the condo. The patio was lovely in the evening to enjoy a nice bbq'd meal on the built in unit, listen to the birds and enjoy the full moon that was ordered for the week. The staff on the grounds were friendly and so helpful with any of our questions. The private beach was the best we have found. We have always enjoyed the Mauna Lani resort and have stayed at the Orchid, The Bungalows and other condo properties but staying in your condo and on the Golf Villa property was truly a fabulous experience for us and we definitely will be going back. Thank you again for making this all available to us. Jaynee and Gary

Our family of five just spent a week at the Figgins' condo in Mauna Lani and it was wonderful. The condo was comfotable, well kept and equipped, and located in a beautiful resort. We grilled and ate outside every day, used the exercise room and pool a quick walk out the back door, and enjoyed wonderful food and drinks at the Na Pua restaurant on the beach. We can't wait to go back. Thanks Steve and Karen!
May 2011
Thank you for a wonderful experience at your condo. From the stainless steel appliances down to the comfortable beds, it was truly an unforgettable time. The landscaping was beautifully maintained and the pool was awesome. We will certainly recommend staying at the Golf Villas to our friends.

There's a very good reason that the Figgins' condo has nothing but 5-star reviews - it's a terrific value in a tranquil condo nestled amidst the priciest and most gorgeous resorts on the Big Island. The property is immaculately maintained, the unit thoughtfully decorated, and location absolutely perfect - whether you prefer lounging at the private beach club, grilling up local produce on your lanai, or just having a comfy home base from which to explore Hawai'i.
We were here for the Kona-side portion of our honeymoon and couldn't have been happier. Even after enjoying the fabulously opulent (and walkable) Fairmont and Mauna Lani -- and many of the terrific area restaurants -- we were always happy to return to the unit each evening for peace, quiet, and stargazing. Steve and Karen went out of their way to provide activity recommendations, restaurant wisdom, and email updates (even after booking!) about special events going on during the week of our stay.
With a gorgeous (and nearly private) pool just steps from your lanai, complementary Kona coffee, terrific golf, and easy access to countless beaches, you really wouldn't have to leave the area if you didn't want to. But, should you decide to get out and explore (do it!), the location is superb - quaint villages, coffee plantations, historic sites, and all manner of outdoor adventures are easy scenic day trips.
One bit of wisdom if you're planning on cooking: while there are smallish supermarkets located very close by at the Mauna Lani complex and the Queen's Marketplace, you'll do much better with selection and pricing by hitting one of the Kona-area big-store supermarkets just south of the airport.
Also, even if you're appalled by chain hotels, you have to at least stop in for a sunset drink and peek at the nearby Hilton Waikoloa, with landscaping that would put Disneyland to shame and a world-class Asian art collection liberally scattered around the property. Man-made but jaw-dropping amazing.
Steve and Karen were wonderful hosts and textbook examples of how rental properties should be properly managed. Book this unit - you will not regret it!
February 2011
The unit was great with a excellent bed. Our big decision each day was Beach or Pool of which both were wonderful. Quiet area and very relaxing. Great BBQ area also. Would go back!

Hi Steve, We had a great time at your condo. We never asked ourselves the entire time we were there, "Oh I wish we had this", or "I wish we had that", everything was well stocked for cooking and for the beach. The condo is in a prime location, we thought out of all the mega resorts the Mauna Lani was the best. It is also so close to all of the other great resorts. Hapuna was a dream beach only 5 minutes away and lots of quaint shopping close by. Thanks again for working with us on our early arrival you were a pleasure to deal with. When we come back to the Big Island I will not even hesitate to stay here again. I say this after seeing most of what the island has to offer. Oh I almost forgot the pool and courtyard was so peaceful and relaxing. I only wished the pool was a little warmer, but Betsy seemed to think it was just fine. The weather was 82 every day and sunny and only 1 hour of rain at night. Thanks again Steve and Karen for sharing your little slice of heaven on earth.

My Hubby and I just stayed at the Figgnin's condo and can't say enough good things about it. From the luxurious condo to the amazing private beach club it was all grand! It is located in the Mauna Lani Resort area which is a great location on the Big Island. We will definately be returning when we can. Thank you for your friendly and helpful hospitality.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Figgin's Golf Villa. The place is new and clean with upscale appliances. Everything is there that you might need, and several markets are in the vicinity to buy groceries and yummy dinners to cook out on the BBQ right on the lanai. The grounds are exquisite, the pool area quite lovely with several private seating areas. The owners provided a great sheet with directions and recommendations for shopping/gas/food stores/beaches. The Kings Shops and Queens Shops are only 2 miles away, with upscale stores and a market and Roy's restaurant and Merrimans Cafe. You are close to Kona and stroll down Alii Drive. The Volcanos Natl Park is awesome, only a few hours drive away. A large sandy beach is nearby, as is a smaller one (Puako) hidden in the pine trees for shade. The photos of this Golf Villa says it all...you will love staying here.

We loved all of the amenities of this condo. Well appointed and very clean. It is so nice to be close to the pool. We started a couple of mornings off with a hot tub in the pool complex which is close enough to be very convenient and far away enough that there is no noise at the condo. The pool area is beautifully designed.
The private Beach Club is a great amenity. A lovely beach and well maintained grass area. Plenty of beach chairs and even chairs with beautiful blue shades make a place for everyone. The beach is super and we enjoyed walking along the coastline through fish beds and onto other hotel properties Mauna Lani and Fairmont Orchid. Five turtles that "hang" out at the dock were such a delight to see and we were treated to a whale playing just off shore on our last day. This is a little slice of paradise.
