We’ve stayed in a dozen or so properties and never found one as clean, well maintained, nice kitchen supplied with top notch appliances, comfortable beds and enough pillows to fill a truck. Also great beach equipment.

Do NOT second guess this spot - RUN to book this home!
This home was a dreamy - exactly the vibe I dreamt of walking up in every morning while on the Big Island. If you prefer a home versus a resort then this is the spot. My family adored all of the local and locally-inspired atrwork adorning every nook and cranny. Every detail was thought of

I loved this place. The only suggestion I may have is the lighting in the bathroom. It was hard to put makeup on but otherwise, I loved the place.
We really enjoyed our stay. The home is nicely appointed, kitchen has everything you need, plenty of things for the beach, and perfect location. The community is quiet and the unit is a few minute walk to the pool. The beach is a five minute drive, and there’s also a great coffee shop less than a mile away. Prompt and professional communication with the property manager. Everything was top notch.

Mahalo for leaving us a 5 star review Pamela! We appreciate the feedback and value your input. We aim to provide a truly unique experience and are thrilled that we exceeded your expectations. We hope that you will consider staying with us on your next visit to Hawaii!
Beautifully beach decorated condo which is perfect for a family or two couples to share. Condo is light and comfortable. Each room was huge w large bathrooms attached. I especially enjoyed the outdoor shower after a day at the beach. We also enjoyed the beach club. Unfortunately the pool is unheated and I found it too cool for comfort. We very much enjoyed the location and the neighborhood. We cooked most of our meals at the condo. Kitchen was well stocked for cooking and the grill area worked well. Our family hopes to return and enjoy Hawaii again soon!

It's great to know that you enjoyed the outdoor shower and the beach club, although we understand the pool temperature was a bit cool for your liking.

This rental is well appointed, has plenty of space for a family of four, I would highly recommend and we'll rent again!
If you are looking for a rental that has a lot of amenities, this it.
1. Large living/family room with plenty of sitting.
2. Very nice and equipped kitchen, including 2 refrigerators.
3. The Master and 2nd bedroom bathrooms are very large, with plenty of closet space; and bath & beach towels.
4. Comfortable beds!
5. Pool & Gym are an easy walk and very nice.
6. Mauna Lani Private Beach Access is a huge plus! Lounge chairs on the beach, a restaurant/bar and a good bay for snorkeling, swimming and lounging (5 minute drive). House has plenty of beach accessories (chairs, umbrellas, wagon, cooler, etc.)
7. If you don't have a car, rent a golf cart to drive to beach club, Mauna Lani Hotel, & the Fairmont.
8. Staff and management were very easy to work with and very accommodating. Easy check-in/out.
We really enjoyed our stay and as I mentioned, we will rent again.
