We invite you to stay in our beautiful slice of Hawaii! Our home is located in THE VILLAGES, a private, gated community near everything! The Villages offers guests maximum comfort and convenience. Our home is walking distance to all of Mauna Lani's amenities and cardkey access is provided to the newly updated Private Beach Club during your stay.

Our 2,200 sq. ft. home (plus over 600 ft of private balconies and lanai's) was built in the first stage of The Villages.

The unique features of this home compared to other homes in The Villages are:

*Only unit with lava rock wall from driveway to front door.
*Next to and behind one story units versus two story units means complete privacy with the added perk of afternoon/evening sun on the lanai!
*Beautiful mountain views from the front on a quiet side street with only 5 homes.
*All upgrades possible during construction of the unit
*New lounge chairs on the patio and a wonderful outdoor living room updates the lanai space! Pictures on fb

Enjoy the best of both worlds as you are shielded from the two main roads leading into The Villages by an expansive, raised, tropically landscaped island- Peace of mind with smaller children as only a handful of homes sit on our quiet little street. It's a short 124 yard stroll to The Shops (Farmland Foods gourmet grocery store, Tommy Bahama Cafe, Oasis and more)

The 'Lehua' layout has a great room concept that extends through a large window-wall pocket door, to a spacious lanai and yard creating a fun, entertaining space.

All kitchen items are top of the line and you will find nothing missing for any size meal you choose to prepare including, stainless steel appliances, GE dishwasher, island with double sink, large Sub-Zero refrigerator, coffee maker, coffee grinder, toaster.

Upstairs, a long private hallway leads to the Cal king ensuite with it's own balcony. You'll find the entrance to the walk-in closet with built-ins and large bathroom with spacious soaking tub along this hall. The Twin ensuite bedroom has two twin XL beds (can be converted to a king bed upon request) plus a twin size daybed. The main floor Queen bedroom is a private suite with access to an adjoining bathroom with a walk or roll-in shower. A pocket door off the 1/2 bath reveals a large laundry room with Fisher Paykel w/d and is stocked with complementary laundry soap and beach towels during your stay. Flat screen t.v.'s in all rooms along with high speed "WHOLE house/lanai COVERAGE" WIFI.

The lanai has a beautiful refinished teak wood table and lounge chairs seating 6-8 people. The outside kitchen includes a built-in barbecue, refrigerator, and sink. In addition, a separate private patio off the kitchen awaits for sunbathing, morning coffee or a quiet reading spot.

Private Beach club access, The Villages amenity center is walking distance from our place (The Villages has THE WARM POOL in Mauna Lani!)

Indoor living space- 2,174 sq. ft. plus over 600 sq. ft. of balconies lanai's...Mahalo for looking at our listing!

Big Island Christmas Week with a perfect home base
Phenomenal home base for our family of 7 to spend Christmas week on the Big Island. Excellent and prompt communication with the owner leading up to the trip, and a friendly welcome from the host when we arrived. First off, the home was perfect in size, cleanliness and amenities. Loved the outdoor cooking and eating space, kitchen spacious for family meals, and spaces spread out for everyone to take a break from forced family fun time :D Access to the beach club was great (and enjoyed walking down there in the mornings through the lava park by the ponds), and the shops at Mauna Lani (especially the grocery store a few steps away) were super convenient for food, coffee, and the extra outdoor clothing/items which teenagers tend to forget to pack. Location was quiet, peaceful and beautiful, and the short drive access down into town was perfect. Was hard to leave at the end of our trip - amazing property!

Absolute Perfection!
This was our first stay on the Big Island. We had originally booked on Maui but then the fire happened and our home was needed to house displaced families so we switched to this island. We were so happy to find this place because it was similar to what we had booked on Maui. We were a family of 6 adults and wanted space to spread out and this was it! Kathryn was fabulous - we arrived late on Thanksgiving night and she was willing to purchase some frozen pizzas and POG for us to leave in the fridge because everything would be closed and we'd be starving when we arrived. But, there is an upscale Food Land literally next door that opened at 6 am the next day so it as easy to get food for breakfast. The house was clean and comfortable. We loved that every bedroom was an ensuite. The beds were very comfy and the air conditioning worked great with separate upstairs and downstairs units. The kitchen was very well equipped and after a run to Costco, we cooked a couple of meals a day at the house. We loved the walls of sliding glass. It was lovely to open them in the morning and evening and catch cross breezes. Bonus that they all had screens to keep the critters out but let the breeze in. We loved this house and the host was the best. I'm a travel agent and will recommend it 100% to anyone looking for a great stay on the Big Island!

Wonderful stay at a great property and perfect location in paradise
Our family of 5 had a terrific stay in this high-end property. We loved its location in the Mauna Lani resort, in direct walking distance to shops and restaurants, and with a great private beach club and pool too. The property itself was well-stocked with all needed amenities and many extras.

Why they chose this property

RECENT UPDATES as of 11/23 :
**Brand new quartzite countertops with an expanded island in gourmet kitchen.
**All new LED lighting with LED dimmer switches.
**Brand new custom ordered sectional with all the options to ensure comfort when settling into movie night!

Mauna Lani is situated in the heart of the sunny Kohala coast. As past renters in Mauna Lani we found the The Villages to be the perfect combination of resort living (with easy access to it's amenities) yet peaceful and relaxing. The expansive lanais at The Villages invite you to live outside!

We like the privacy of the homes, quality of construction and close proximity to the shops. The Villages' pool has a very nice temperature that is great for kids of all ages!

We enjoy hanging out at the beach club and taking walks through the lava caves and fishponds. We love to play golf and tennis in Mauna Lani!

What makes this property unique

Returning guests to The Villages are pleasantly surprised by how private our unit is. There are no homes looking into our backyard. During the initial phase of construction, a lava wall was built between our unit and the next. We have been told that the cost of this wall became too expensive to replicate throughout the development so it is unique to our place! In addition, we think you'll love our home because of the open layout to the large private lanai and yard. Our home is professionally decorated with Tommy Bahama furniture and soothing paint colors- Resort furniture can be aesthetic but uncomfortable, we have the perfect mix of aloha with the added benefit of the most comfortable sectional couch you will ever lounge on! We want you to feel at home while on your vacation in paradise!

We also want to make sure you have the fasted WIFI possible. We have upgraded to 12 volt Ruckus AP power supplies around the house to ensure the best signal everywhere in addition to a fancy self healing modem.

You'll enjoy the quick walk to the shops for the newspaper in the morning and the short stroll to the pool. We provide Tommy Bahama beach chairs, 2 cruiser bikes and beach/pool toys for our guests to use.
