This is my 3rd time renting this VRBO. Ron, the owner, has been very easy to communicate with. He responds very quickly. I love the location of this unit at the KoOlina Beach Villas. It has a beautiful sunset view no matter what time of year it is. It is very quiet. I highly recommend.

My family enjoyed our stay at this beautiful property. The communication with the manager was great and our arrival experience was outstanding as we were greeted personally and given a property tour. The unit itself was clean and spacious though could use a little paint refresh in some areas. We loved being right on the beach while still being able to use the pools and amenities. The property is about 25 minutes from Honolulu and less than an hour from most of the island This allowed us to get everywhere we wanted in no time at all whiles avoiding the congestion of the city. The only complaint I had was that the assigned parking spot for this unit is extremely tight between columns making it challenging to get situated. Just a minor thing. All in all, this is an excellent property highly recommended to all.

The room had all the essentials to make for a perfect stay in Ko Olina. The view is beautiful from the patio, where we enjoyed a cup of coffee every morning. There were toys and beach supplies (chairs, mats, snorkel gear, boogie boards) that came in really handy down at the lagoon for the little ones. And the service downstairs at the Makai Hale Bar is great

Being our first time to Hawaii, we were unsure of where to stay. This place was amazing - it had everything we needed plus much more. The pictures and description do not do it justice - it is truly paradise. The staff was so helpful and friendly (Kalei at the front desk went above and beyond to make our stay great - down to having maintenance assist in retrieving a toy that our 3 year old grandson had dropped from the balcony). The complex was clean and well maintained.
The villa was just as described: all the beach items needed - 2 wagons, snorkeling gear galore, beach chairs, toys, etc.; Beds were comfortable; kitchen had everything you need for cooking as well as baby/toddler dishes. Only suggestion would be to maybe replace the cushions in living room chairs as they were flat and not that comfortable.
The views were amazing. The pools and lagoon were incredible (not overcrowded and quiet). We could not have asked for a better home away from home and first experience in Hawaii. Highly recommend this villa!

Great property, would love to return in the future. Beautiful location. The resort pools and beach are perfect for young kids. Live music every night as the sunset. Kitchen and patio were fantastic, large bedrooms & bathrooms. All around perfect.

We enjoyed a special occasion celebration with 7 adults. The unit was nicely equipped with everything needed.
We had two issues however, a bedroom was to have a futon for a 3rd person.The single person sadly slept 2 pads in the master bedroom closet. Also there was a small undisclosed charge for parking a
2nd vehicle. They then placed (a visually seen) an SUV into a compact spot and then complained when one tire was barely on the inside line of the parking spot.

Girls trip. This is a beautiful place to stay. We found everything well appointed, neat and clean. There were so many extras too. Chairs for the beach and snorkel equipment. No guarantee that it will be there when you visit. We liked the beach towels and oscillating fans. We had coffee in the mornings outside on the balcony and watch the sun come up or watch the ocean waves crash. This place is just as described. Nice lagoon, pools, cabana bar. We would definitely stay here again. 5 stars. Host was excellent to us.

The view from the balcony and proximity to the beach lagoon were the best part of the condo. It was so peaceful and beautiful every morning and evening. Being close to the bar area where they have live music at night was great just sitting from the balcony. The only complaint would be the pillows weren’t very comfortable and the two twin beds for adults weren’t very comfortable either, but because the view and balcony were so amazing we overlooked it. We would definitely come again to this same condo

First time VRBO renters here, happy to say great first experience! Owner was wonderful and great at communication. Check-in greeter/host, Shane, was an absolute pleasure to work with. Unit clean and fully-equipped, updated and comfortable. Front desk personnel always pleasant and willing to help. Location gorgeous! Loved the pools and lagoon area - absolute paradise. We were there for our daughter's wedding nearby and loved exploring the area. Fun resorts next door to visit for experiences, dining, shopping (Four Seasons and Disney Aulani), but a pleasure to come back to the quiet, relaxed condo environment. View from the condo patio is spectacular! Adults loved the "quiet pool" (unit overlooks), and granddaughter had a fabulous time in the "lagoon" pool, and she also loved the adventure each day of feeding the fish in the koi pond! Lots of stuff nearby - dining and shopping, and not too far of a drive from local Costco, Safeway, Target and Walmart for necessities. Definitely recommend visiting nearby Roy's for happy hour, and also very much enjoyed our visit to nearby Monkeypod. Local little grocery store has great wine selection, fresh made to order sushi and gelato! It was a wonderful first visit to the Ko Olina area, and we definitely plan to go back and would love to stay in this unit again! Thanks for the memories!

The property didn’t quite meet our expectation. Number one was the outdated showers. The picture shows up to date new showers . The water stream strikes onto the wall and I had to lean on the wall to catch the water. Tried to adjust the shower head - no use.
Number two- refrigerators. The doors are so hard to open , need to use both hands to pull it open. Always opened it from the second attempt.
We caught 4 cockroaches which was disgusting .
The chairs on the lanai are dirty ( fabric) of overuse.I put the towel to sit on and got a warning I am doing it. Must give a credit to the chairs - very comfortable,
The receptionist was rude on the day of our arrival .I asked her why I am filling out the form and checking the car information but we don’t have a car, she gave me a dirty look and replied “ just fill it out”. Never saw any smile on her face.
Lastly, it would be nice to have a mop to wipe the floors. I like to keep it clean all the time. For me cleanliness is number one thing!
The resort itself is beautiful. Always a lot of empty chairs.

The villa was amazing and accurate. Our baby enjoyed the safety of the kiddie pool and lagoon. Our in-laws enjoyed coffee every morning on the lanai. The villa itself was very spacious and we appreciated all the thought put into providing essentials for vacationers. We would definitely book again and Sherry was wonderful with communications and helping us get formula for our baby upon arrival. We love a more private experience and previously stayed at Turtle Bay's Bungalows but in a heartbeat would book this unit again.

We spent 2 weeks at the property and it had everything we needed for a wonderful time. It's convenient to the Beach Villas private lagoon and an easy walk to restaurants at Aulani, the Four Seasons, and the Marriott resorts. It's not quite as big as it appears in the pictures, but that's typical. A party of four should be just fine. The owner is very responsive; but, fortunately, we didn't have to bother him because everything went smoothly. Highly recommend. Air conditioning and garage parking is a bonus.

Beautiful, beautiful view. Truly a slice of paradise sipping Vanilla Macadamia Nut coffee mornings on the huge lanai. Unit was spacious for my husband and I and our 2 college aged kiddos. Communication/responses from the host was easy/quick. The unit could have been better cleaned and kitchen utensils could probably get switched out but really quite minor. I would still recommend staying here for that amazing view and very private lagoon, it was never crowded. Loved being able to enjoy the live music from that nice large lanai. We really enjoyed our stay here.

Love Ko Olina! It’s near enough to everything yet far enough away to make you feel like it’s your island….. with just a few people. The Beach Villas are perfect for a larger family or just a few friends. After walking to the neighboring hotels it was decided they were all too crowded with people and we liked our smaller more intimate Beach Villas!

Great place to stay. Wonderful pools, beach and lagoons. Not a complaint but I do wish they had a few more services. This property you do everything your self.

Amazing condo with all the amenities of an hotel without the hoopla. We simply loved this condo and the location. Upon entering into the condo we were greatly surprised by the cleanliness of the unit, amazing kitchen and best views ever of the ocean. Wow! The only issue we had was of having to leave. We could've spent an entire month here. The proerty manger and owners were great to resound and great to work with. We are already checking on availability for next year. So amazing!

If you need more room and are tired of hotels this is the place for you. Ko Olina is my happy place and the Ko Olina Beach Villas was the perfect choice for a stay. There are two amazing pools and an on site bar (limited food). The Condo has a full kitchen big bathrooms and we spent every morning and evening on the big lanai. Staff are wonderful too! Don’t forget to feed the koi in the beautiful center garden.

The view and peacefulness of the southwest side of Oahu was better than expected. Accommodations were as described and our host Cherie, even made arrangements for a late check out time for our party of five. The kitchen is set up so that you have everything at hand to prepare meals in the condo which we took advantage of. The owner has taken in account for anything a guest might need on hand and we were only steps away from a pristine beach. We will definitely look forward to staying again.

At check-in we found the property was not cleaned well. We found hairs, dust, and food crumbs in multiple places and lots of mold on the washer's gasket...all of which we ended up cleaning ourselves. Next, the carpets in both bedrooms were dirty, with dirt accumulation & stains in several areas. Next, there were maintenance issues in the bathrooms. I wish I was at least asked to delay check in, so they could get the carpets cleaned etc. I contacted the manager with videos & pictures of issues, but received NO response for the entirety of our stay. I contacted the host with a list of issues and pictures of dirty carpets. He simply refunded the cleaning fee but chose not to acknowledge or address the dirty carpets or other issues. I never got any real apology. In his last email, the host suggested that next time I should stay at "the Four Seasons because their suites are maintained at a higher standard". Denying, deflecting and making sarcastic comments, especially when faced with pic/vid evidence of problems, is not a good way to do business.
Had I been made aware prior to booking, that the host doesn't have "high standards" or that the management team is irresponsible & irresponsive, I would have booked any other condo in the area.
Other issues: constant noise blasted from shows at adjacent resorts every night, so you can't enjoy a quiet evening out on the lanai. Then more noise every night at 12 AM from supply trucks. The TVs are old and don't have streaming functionality.

Me and my family and our cousin and his family stayed at this property. It was beautiful with absolutely amazing views. The check in process was straightforward. But the house rules are definitely strictly enforced. Be prepared to go to bed by 9pm if you stay at this resort. We were out on the balcony and had a few noise complaints. There was also a friendly reminder about clothes on the lanai. All in all it was good. But definitely on the quieter side.

Ko’Olina is a beautiful property! The condo had everything you could possibly need! Kitchen was fully stocked with everything needed for preparing meals. View is as advertised. Beds were very comfortable. We enjoyed everything! A few minor glitches with washer and dryer which couldn’t be fixed and a glitch with the air conditioning which was serviced immediately. Carpets were a little stained but I’m sure with as many people that come through this is to be expected. All in all this is a beautiful condo and we would not hesitate to stay here again! Everyone was so pleasant and helpful.

I live on Oahu and was looking for a good place to have a staycation while also hosting my in-laws who were visiting. Growing up, Ko’olina was always one of my favorite beaches so I was familiar with the area. Who knew these properties are so beautiful!
The unit was very clean! I gave wiped down all the counters and tables with sanitizing wires after checking in, and there was no dirt to be found on the wipes :)
The kitchen was beautiful and I enjoyed cooking in it everyday AND it was stocked with basically anything you need!
All beds were comfy, including the couch bed, and we appreciated how all the tvs had Netflix, on demand, etc. the unit was also furnished with beach towels, beach chairs, a cooler, etc.
We did see a couple huge roaches during our stay, but not bad considering we were only on the second floor and I know this part of the island has lots of roaches. As I said before, this unit was very clean :)
Also, Shane was so nice and he was always responsive when we messaged him, thanks Shane!
As others have said, you need a car when staying here. No restaurants or stores on the property, but the pools/hot tubs/beach are perfect, and Costco, target, Walmart, lots of restaurants, etc is literally only a 5-10 minute drive. There is also a bar between the pool and beach which has delicious cocktails and live music everyday around sunset time (except Sunday)
We can’t wait to come back, and this may become our “home away from home” when we do staycations.

My family (five adults and one 3-yr-old) were so impressed by the Beach Villas but specifically this condo! The unit was comfortable and clean, with all the amenities in the kitchen we could want! We thoroughly enjoyed the closet full of beach supplies and kid amenities (two umbrellas, multiple beach chairs, noodles, inflatable water loungers, sand toys, pack-and-play, high chair, and an umbrella stroller). The two lanais had gorgeous views that we lived on--there's just something about sipping coffee watching the beach wake up or watching football with a view of the ocean that just says vacation for me! The Beach Resort itself was also the perfect place to stay for our group with such fun daily koi fish feeding, two beautiful pools, a beach bar, restaurants within walking distance, and beautiful spaces for lounging and playing. Can't wait to come back!

We were there for second time so we knew the place. I thought we‘ll see the same facility but little bit worn after 8 years. Surprisingly the place including the apartment remained in the same condition as we left the last time. Photos are exactly real. Everything is clean, everything works. The surroundings are excellent. Lagoon is superbly clean due to the “wave pump” built there. We rented the car so we didn’t need any other transportation.
Two drops of poison into 5 stars review:
- bed mattress and topper are too soft for me. I’m sinking in it
- sofa is of good leather but feels a bit pressed in, but not a trouble for couple of weeks.
And in the end the cherry on a cake: we had a late evening flight and were generously granted with 10 hours late checkout. Thanks Cherie!
Highly likely we’ll be there again.

The view, community, staff, and pools are amazing!! The master bedroom mattress is old, worn, and really really uncomfortable. Both my wife and i ( in our 40s by the way) couldn’t sleep because of the shape of the mattress. When you are paying for 6 nights and go home more tired than you came not good. I really really really recommend you immediately triage it so this doesn’t happen to someone else!!!
