We loved this place! It’s huge, stunning, spotless and very well equipped. The location is so convenient for the Kohala beaches, groceries and shops. And the beach club access is AMAZING! The snorkeling, restaurant and facilities there are terrific. Smooth communication too. Highly recommended for sure.

We were traveling with our 3 teenage grandsons and it was wonderful for them to have the downstairs at times and us to be upstairs. They LOVED the workout/gym area and used it every night. Great to have such beautiful bathrooms! Laura Lee was so nice to communicate with at any time. Mahalo! Laurel

Wow is all I can say!. I have been to many beaches in the Hawaiin Islands and the private beach is the most family friendly beach I have ever been to. The property is located in a quiet gated community. We really liked the feeling of being away from crowds. If you want to experience a slice of Hawaii this is the place to bring your family.

The home was very nice. Communication with owner excellent. Pool close by as well as coffee shop!
Small negatives - ice maker did not work, upstairs was difficult to cool down and most of the scheduled activities were only in Kona, A bit of a drive.

Group of us stayed here for the Honu Half Ironman. The house is beautiful & was clean upon our arrival. Laura and Ray are great and responsive hosts and unfortunately had to deal with multiple maintenance issues during our stay. The AC unit was not working efficiently upon our arrival and the hosts dropped down the temp virtually. Couple days later the AC unit fully stopped working and a service man had to come the following day during our dinner to fix it. Unfortunately this was a temporary fix as the AC unit broke again a day and a half later. During our 12 day stay we had 4 service calls to our property. We had requested a partial refund for the stay which the hosts denied but offered a discount on future stays. Unfortunately we have no plans on returning to the Island as a group. Laura and Ray were great and responsive throughout the issues but disappointing on their refund stance as we didn't receive the comfort and amenities that we paid for. Lesson learned to all is if you have any issues or troubles with your stay, make VRBO aware right away to start a ticket as doing it directly with the host after the fact won't work.

We really enjoyed this property, the hosts do a great job of having all the amenities you could ever need for your stay include everything you may need to cook at home. Top of the line appliances, bikes and beach equipment were nice but really the private beach has chairs for guests to use if arrive early can use the cabana’s. There is a black sand beach nearby as well, again limited parking arrive early. Snorkeling off both beaches was fabulous enjoyed it as much as at Captain Cook. Communication with the host was amazing she was very quick to get back to us with any questions we had. The location here was great for us and do plan on returning thank you so much.

The house is in a wonderful location. The host was very attractive. Anything needed they were on it. Walking distance to beaches, pool, exercise room, store, and golf. Beautiful home. Will stay again.

Our family, 5 adults &1 child stayed at the property in Oct '23-loved everything about it! Communication with owner was great before and during our visit. The neighborhood was beautiful, clean and quiet. Home was spacious, very clean, beautifully decorated, and provided so many little things which made our stay comfortable. Highly recommend reading the Welcome Booklet when you arrive as it will answer many of your questions and let you know of important rules for the neighborhood. They also provide great information for the area.
We had planned to eat in often and decided to use Instacart to order groceries ahead of time from Costco & Target. They were delivered a few hours after we arrived, which was so nice as we had a long day of travel. Recommend preparing your order a few days ahead so you have time to make changes. Also, you'll want to check with the owner about which gate code to give the delivery person. Nearby there is a very nice Foodland grocery store which had the extra things that we needed later.
The private beach at the Mauna Lani Beach Club was excellent! We traveled around the island and our family thought the private beach was the best of them all. It was quiet, clean, plenty of shade and chairs with calm waters which was great for our preschooler. But the best part was the snorkeling! We saw more sea life there than on any other beach!!
Overall, we can highly recommend this property. If we every make it back to the Big Island, we'll be using it again!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay with our family and infant! The house was spacious, comfortable, the lanai was so beautiful and the house was equipped with everything we need. The location also couldn't be beat, with the mauna lani shops nearby and easy access to the Beach Club!

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.

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 had a great vaccation at this condo it was perfect for our family of 6. The decor was beautifly Hawaiian themed and it was great to see the ocean out in the distance form the patio. They had beach chairs and umbrellas for us to use and we loved that the VIP Beach we had Access to had the best snorkeling around.

We had a wonderful week at our Mauna Lani vacation home. Our family of 5 adults spent a week enjoying the Big Island. The house was great in so many ways. We were centrally located near many great beaches, restaurants, and things to do. The home was decorated with lovely Hawaiian décor, and each bedroom had comfortable beds, large screen tv, and en-suite bathrooms. As mentioned in other reviews, the home had everything we needed. Pots, pans, spices, and kitchenware and all kitchen equipment (blender, coffee grinder, French press, etc.).
Additionally, the home is large- with an open kitchen, dining room, living room, and a small bathroom off the kitchen. The hot tub at the pool club was a favorite place for all of us to end up after a busy day at the beach or hiking. Your beautiful home allowed our family to reconnect and explore the Big Island!

There were 3 couples on our trip and the house was perfect for us. The couple that stayed in the room with the 2 beds said the beds were very uncomfortable but that was the only complaint we had about the property. The outdoor kitchen was fabulous! We grilled most nights and thanks to the terrific cooks in our party they were better meals than when we went out to eat. The kitchen was stocked well. The only thing I thought was missing were some oven mitts.
