Gem of a condo, gem as a golf cart but best of all a GEM of a host. Very clean, comfortable and well equipped kitchen. Lots of extras like loads of toilet paper and paper towels, bathroom towels and shower goodies. Can’t miss on this one. I’m down for January! Enjoy

Great stay with every imaginable amenity included

Great stay in a very well-maintained townhouse. The hosts were super communicative and helpful, check-in was seamless with electronic keys and codes. The house was stocked with everything needed for a great stay ... kitchen pantry basics, beach gear and toys, extra towels, etc. The electric cart is surprisingly useful to get around Mauna Lani. The unit also comes with access to the Mauna Lani Tennis club where you can rent tennis and pickleball courts for free, along with free demo racquets -- just bring your court shoes from home! We never had a problem getting court time. The parking pass to the Mauna Lani Beach Club is also useful, but I think Hapuna Beach is superior and worth the drive. All in all, I would not hesitate to stay here again!

Wonderful stay

We had a lovely time on the Kona side staying at Ralph and Priscilla's property. We rode the GEM cart almost every day to get around the resort and the Mauna Lani Beach Club was beautiful. The unit was very well stocked, and Ralph was very responsive and made sure that we had everything we needed.

Terrific Condo

My wife and I had a terrific week at this property to celebrate her birthday. The property was just as expected from the photos. The location was centrally located on the West side of the island so we could hit the resorts North of us or head towards Kona. It was also close to the new highway to take you to Hilo. The owner was easy to get in contact with and did a brief orientation when we first arrived over the phone.

Great Stay

Kulalani is a beautiful property that is very well kept. It was great having the Gem cart to go to the beach and shops. So convienent. The unit had everything we needed and was clean on arrival. We have stayed at the Kulalani before and chose it again for the wonderful pool areas. Ralph and Pricilla, our hosts, replied quickly to any questions and sent clear entry instructions to the property. We look forward to returning.

Fantastic trip!

My family and I had a wonderful week at Ralph and Priscilla's house in Mana Launi. Ralph made everything so easy, and the house was amazing. Tons of space, all of the appliances we could possibly need, super comfortable beds with quality linens, and so nice to have all of the beach and snorkel gear there to use. We also loved the electric cart- easy to use and lots of fun! We made use of the Rec Center, the nearby and beautiful beach with access to great snorkeling, and the super close pools. We can't wait to return!

Perfect Paradise Getaway

We have been staying at Mauna Lani for over 14 years and have stayed at many different condos and houses. This home has been by far the nicest two bedroom we have ever stayed in. The unit is immaculate and beautifully decorated. Ralph was a joy to work with. The resort cart is an added bonus and the best way to get around the resort. Access to the private beach club and Napua restaurant makes for an amazing week and relaxing vacation. I would highly recommend this home and we will be back.

Everyone is Right!

We stayed in Ralph & Priscilla's condo for a little over 3 weeks, and were very happy with just about everything. Location was great, and we really enjoyed the pool area, which we think is much better than the one at Fairways. Condo was very clean and well-outfitted. We didn't end up using the GEM cart much, but with more people I can see that it could be very handy. The A/C system took a little getting used to but was great once Ralph helped us understand how it operated. It wasn't actually complicated; we just don't need A/C where we live, so it was unfamiliar to us. We've been home a few days, and are definitely missing our "home away from home." Hope to return one day!

Absolutely perfect

We had a fabulous stay at Naupaka@Kulalani Mauna Lani Resort. A lovely appointed property with absolutely everything needed for a perfect Hawaiian vacation. Bikes, coolers, snorkels, beach chairs, beach towels were in excellent condition. The GEM golf cart was an added bonus. We used the GEM to go shopping, out to dinner and to the beach club. There are 2 pools 2 spas and a workout room a short walk from the condo. These are used by the Kulalani complex and were not crowded. The beach at Mauna Lani was absolutely perfect, with chairs in the shade, showers, restrooms and a cafe. A wonderful sand beach with great snorkeling. It was so nice we spent all of our beach days there. Ralph and Pricillia were perfect host, always available to answer any questions about the property or the area. We have already told several friends about this property. I am sure we will be back. Aloha and Mahalo Ralph. All the best Farrar and Cullen

Excellent condo in Mauna Lani resort

Ralph is the most organized and responsive VRBO host we've ever rented from. The condo itself is great - very clean, and very organized. Ralph has thought of everything. The beds and pillows were high quality and very comfortable. The towels and provided toiletries were great. The beach equipment was an added bonus - lots of kids snorkel equipment, boogie boards, pool noodles, beach umbrellas, and a wagon. There is 1 kid size life jacket which was nice to have for my younger snorkeler. The pool is shared with the Ka Milo development to the north but always had lots of chairs and shade. There is a lap pool, a hot tub and a fitness center there. Being able to use the Gem cart is reason enough to book - just a few minutes down the road to the Fairmont Orchid, a few minutes the other direction to the grocery store (be prepared for $7 milk and $10 bread), Tommy Bahama restaurant, and the Island Taproom had good IPAs. The Fairmont Orchid restaurant was underwhelming but we ate one night at Beach Tree at the Four Seasons Hualalai (30 min south) and it was fantastic. The Mauna Lani Beach Club is 5 minutes by cart and had the calmest water and best snorkeling in our time there. Plus beach chairs and a restaurant good for lunch. The neighborhood is very quiet and much more relaxed than Waikaloa to the south. Great for families. Overall this is a fantastic home base to explore the Big Island or just hang out in the resort areas along the Kohala cost. We will definitely be back!

Great host & condo has everything you could want!

We had a great stay at this property. We have stayed in Mauna Lani many times, but this may be my favorite! The pool at Kulalani is lovely, it is a nice morning walk to the "coral beach" near the Fairmont Orchid. The condo itself had EVERYTHING we would possibly need and the Gem cart was just the thing for any of our travels within Mauna Lani. Ralph was a terrific host, giving us a quick telephone orientation upon our arrival and had some good ideas for things to do while there. (Happy Hour at the Mauna Lani was his suggestion! The Surf Shack! Don't miss it!)
