Perfection at its finest!

The house was exceptionally clean had everything you could think of to cook with or need. It is located right next to a grocery store that has absolutely everything you could possibly need as well. The pool and hot tub is right off the porch! The private beaches are a extra bonus. We would stay here again!

Exactly as advertised

Very nice and comfortable property, Perfect for a family. It is a very quiet and low key community. It was nice to enjoy some quiet time away from the larger resorts. The private beach area was wonderful and we never had an issue getting chairs. Jim’s condo is fully stocked with all the necessary kitchen and beach items.

Awesome property

Our group of 7 had an awesome time while in Big Island. Jim's condo is big, spacious, well equipped with pretty much everything you will need during your vacation stay and situated in a very good location. The interaction with Jim via Homeway email was fast and clear. Highly recommended!

Better than advertised!

This facility is very beautiful and meticulously maintained and the villa feels like home immediately. The host has done an incredible job of making everything super simple and more than accommodating. We were able to visit the entire island on various day trips with zero difficulties and spent several days just hanging out at the local beach a short walk away. I can highly recommend this property and this host without reservation.

Wonderful place to stay!!

Our family of 3 adults, 4 kids and a baby had a wonderful stay here! We thought the location was nice and central. It was only 30-40 min to Kailua and a little over an hour to Hilo. Hapuna and Mauna Kea beaches were just down the road. It is so close to the pool you can watch people play from the patio. Everything was just as described and Jim was very quick to answer all my questions. There was a pull out couch but our boys decided to use the really nice air mattress instead. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook many meals. There was even some spices and oils left from other guests that were nice to not have to purchase. There was an abundance of items to use for the beach—chairs, umbrellas, toys, snorkel stuff, and boogie boards. The house is in a very lovely quiet area. A small but well stocked grocery store is 5 min away. The Mauna Lani beach club was lovely and the water was nice and calm. The walk through the fishponds was beautiful. I would definitely stay here again with my family!

Even better than we expected!

Finding a 3 bedroom within a reasonable budget is not an easy task in Hawaii and we are so lucky we found this place! Our group was two couples and our young children 6mo to 3 years and we couldn’t have been more happy with our stay. The bedrooms, closets, and bathrooms are spacious and the house was well stocked with beach gear, a cooler on wheels, washer/dryer, pack n play, and high chair! We did have to buy a few baby gates due to the stairs. The pool area is right in back of the patio and it features gorgeous waterfalls, a hot tub, a large pool AND connected shallow kids pool! The neighborhood is quiet and the neighbors were so kind and sweet to us. Jim and his team made our stay easy, when we had questions or concerns they were quick to respond and help. The Fairmont Orchid is also 1 min away by car or a 10 min walk - they have free valet parking during the day for easy access to the beach or a day at the spa. Thank you for a wonderful trip!! We hope to be back!

Exceptional Value

It would not be an exaggeration to state that we were blown away with this property. Everything you would need to make use of the onsite facilities and more! Everything you need for the beach? Check Kitchen utensils? Check Clean and nicely appointed? Check Plenty of room so you're not constantly bumping into people? Check Access to resort facilities? Check Washer and Dryer? Check Good communications? Check I could go on and on. This is the property we'll be measuring future Vrbo properties against. Our only wish was that we could stay longer. Maybe next time! Thanks Jim!

No hot water

The unit was spacious and the resort very nice. However, we did not have hot water for five and a half days of our 11 day stay. I was in contact with the on island property manager several times (after leaving voicemails, as they never answered the calls) and they always advised me they would get back to me and let me know what was happening. This did not happen at all. There were several other deficiencies (lanai door didn't lock, front door didn't latch, fan in upstairs bathroom didn't work, dryer had a terrible squeal, some blinds didn't work, minimal linens and dishes, etc) that I could have been okay with if we had hot water. After our stay I was in contact with the owner and requested a bit of a refund - given that I would never rent a place without hot water, but no refund was given. We left the place in great condition and received a five star rating so there was no reason not to consider a partial refund.

Neglected Condo

This place did not live up to our expectations! The carpets were stained and filthy. Throw rugs used to hide the worst parts. Refrigerator light burnt out and missing interior freezer light. Thru-door ice maker didn't work. We were told not to use the sink disposal. Master bath shower had mold stains and showerhead didn't work well at all. Several bathroom light bulbs burnt out in down stairs bathroom. The lanai was right next to the pool so virtually no privacy and only a dining table and chairs, nothing to relax on and read a book. The nest thermostat kept making life difficult, it appeared to have a pre-set program by the owner and under his control. Temperatures we set would only stay for about two hours and then revert to 86 degrees. In the middle of the night it would re-set the temp to 86 and we would have go all the way upstairs to reset it. We were staying on the 1st floor, so it was a real pain! There was an issue with the billing fee with VRBO. Our dates of stay were changed due to the pool being closed during part of our original reservation. VRBO would not credit their portion of the fee for cancelled days. VRBO told me the owner had to cancel the reservation and the owner told me I had to cancel the reservation. Neither VRBO or the owner would budge so I didn't do either because I didn't trust either one of them. All that said, I do believe this could be a pretty nice place to stay if the owner would spring for a little TLC and some investments in flooring, garbage disposal and refrigerator.

The photos of the place were accurate and although not clearly stated, the pass to the private beach at Mauna Lani is included. The kitchen is well stocked which was amazing and laundry detergent and dryer sheets were provided for the entire time of our stay---none of the other Mauna Lani properties weve stayed at were as well stocked at this villa! The owner was very responsive and attended immediately to all our communications with him. Great pool and hot tub and if you have younger children, this place is awesome as the pool is just across the unit. Although our time there was short -- 4 nights--- we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Will definitely come back again.

Well Stocked Condo

Our group of 7 enjoyed our stay at this condo. It is backed up against the pool area which was very convenient. Pool area hours 8a-9p. Hot tub/spa for those ages 8 and older. Short walk to Holoholokai Beach Park for sunsets and walking along the beach.Per the Fairmont Villas property, only 1 parking spot allowed per condo (garage not available for use). Our group of 8 had rented 2 cars and we ended up getting warnings on our cars, despite only about 30% of parking spaces being occupied. Lock pad at front door would be a great upgrade to the unit instead of 1 key.We had communication problems with the condo owner, but it was a glitch on VRBO and not the owners fault.The hallway walls going upstairs could use a good scrub or paint job.Overall we found this VRBO to be a great value and thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

A fabulous place to stay!

This is a wonderful place to stay! We were celebrating our 25th anniversary. The villa is sparkling clean! Lots of kitchen items, beach towels and a CLOSET FULL of beach items! Snorkeling equipment, boogie boards, beach chairs, umbrellas, and even a cooler. There is a high chair and pack and play for babies. We utilized the beach club area in the resort and it was wonderful! Great place for kids and for snorkeling. This is located in the Gated community in the Mauna Lani resort. Short distance to a small grocery store and shopping. We enjoyed this Villa so much! The ONLY downside is that we couldn’t rent a golf cart due to not having access to the garage and a vehicle can’t park in the driveway overnight. We already had a rental car and couldn’t take up another parking spot. That was the neighborhood rule, not the owners. The swimming pool is directly behind the villa and listening to the waterfall of water into the hot tub was so relaxing! 10/10 recommend this villa. It is a great, quiet place to stay and will likely return!

Perfect spot!

This condo is in the perfect spot! It is beside the pool, on the gate side, such that we could let the kids use the pool and still watch them from our lanai. And because we needed the key to get both in and out of the pool area, we could just throw it over the fence to whoever needed it at the moment. The HOA folks are friendly and accommodating, and there is easy parking. The one downside is the gym room, which is very small, has to be booked in advance, and can only accommodate one person or family at a time.

About the host

Hosted by Jim Freitas

Host profile image
We love having this villa as our home-away-from-home. We enjoy the variety of beaches on the Big Island and cannot get enough of exploring new places and hidden beaches. We love to cook, so you'll find everything in our kitchen that you need to create fantastic island inspired meals. Our villa has boogie boards, snorkels & beach gear, tennis rackets, movies, and all kinds of games. We welcome you as our guests.

Why they chose this property

We like this Fairway Villa for its spaciousness (much larger than the 2 bedroom units), award winning architectural design, and lush tropical landscaping. The Mauna Lani Resort has a convenient central location for exploring the Island, with one of the best beaches on the Kohala Coast. We love the natural beauty of the island and the consistently warm weather.

What makes this property unique

With multiple pools, tennis courts, fantastic Mauna Lani Spa, walking paths, air conditioned exercise room, and meeting room, the Fairway Villas is a wonderful complex for families, couples, singles, young and old. This newer complex is close to the Fairmont Hotel and the Marketplace of the Mauna Lani Resort. We also enjoy the close proximity to many of the best beaches in Hawaii.
