Wonderful home, fully appointed in a great family friendly location

This was a great place for two families (4 adults, 3 13-16 yo children). Bedrooms have AC and house is completely stocked to make the trip easy. Would rent again.

We are elated that you enjoyed your stay at the Mauna Kea Fairways South 17. Unfortunately, the internet tends to be slow at certain times on Island, of which we have no control over. We always have our feelers out for a better option. We love the binocular idea! Thank you for the feedback! We are happy to host you again anytime. Aloha 🌸

Great view, great location, loved our stay

This house has so much going for it. Just a super location, lots of privacy and fantastic sunset views. The pool and spa were outstanding, and Kris (the property manager) responded to a couple of minor things we needed help with immediately. The property probably could use a little updating, but that didn't impact our visit at all. The availability of two close resorts for a daily fee was well worth it. Outstanding trip!

Big Island

House is beautiful. Check in process needs to be changed as no one went over everything and management could step up their response. Windows and exterior of house could use a cleaning.

Great property that needs some attention

Great house - layout, view pool, etc, but the property needs some attention to be offered at this price point / affiliated with Mauna Kea. Upholstered furniture is very dirty and worn and the house needs a deep clean. (window sills, baseboards, tile) With the exception of some new chairs outside, furnishings are very dated -- and not in a charming old Hawai'i way. Appliances need to be replaced. House manager was fantastic and responsive to things like the AC being out when we arrived and amenities that were low. (detergent, dish towels) Overall great trip. Can't go wrong with a house at Mauna Kea.

Best and the worst

First the land on which this property sits is beautiful. You have amazing views of the resort and the ocean. Sunset is beautiful. This property is all about potential. This home has clearly been “let go.” The mid-century modern feel needs to be freshened up. The home needs a new coat of paint and a deep clean. The air conditioning in the bedrooms is inadequate and the master is a sauna most of the day/night. As for the rest of the home, the valley in which this home sits does not allow for a nice breeze to fill the open air areas that do not have A/C…leaving the living room and kitchen unbearable. No family could gather in these rooms comfortably. This home could be so much…if it was just painted/cleaned/kept up. Kudos to the property management company who after we sent pictures of the home condition relocated us to an amazing property so our vacation was not ruined. I would stay away from this home unless the price is dropped significantly.

Response from VrboOwner on 6 July 2023
I am always working to make my guests happy and so I appreciate any feedback. In this instance, both myself and the home caretaker went to the property multiple times during this guest's stay and confirmed that the bedroom ACs were operating properly, the home was thoroughly cleaned and that nothing was in need of repair or actionable. The home has ACs in all the bedrooms and bathrooms, whereas the living room and kitchen are an open floor-plan design with wall-length glass sliding doors and screens (as well as fans) to capture the fresh tropical air. The home has many repeat renters and 5-star reviews and the AC setup is clearly mentioned in the property description, so it is unfortunate that such an exceptional property would receive a negative review for an open-air living room that most guests enjoy. I am happy this guest was able to enjoy the rest of his stay - the guest experience is always our number one priority.

Paradise

A perfect home for our family with 3 adult “children” for a much needed vacation. Super cool vibe, pool and spa, beautiful view and sunsets, stargazing, WiFi and Sonos speakers.. and comfortable beds for all. Fabulous location… easy check-in…and option for Mauna Kea daily resort fee a huge plus… worth the money. Don’t need to venture far for fun… except Manta Ray night snorkel in Kona. Mahalo!
