Overall, a great stay. Very spacious, great location. The condo was a bit noisy- it was a downstairs unit and the fans were loud, but we still greatly enjoyed ourselves and would not hesitate to stay here again.
Our family of 6 adults enjoyed our stay. The property had everything we needed and then some. We appreciated the beach chairs, umbrella, and snorkeling equipment. We enjoyed the lovely pool along with the exceptional location. We will definitely stay here again.
We had a wonderful stay. The property is clean, comfortable, well-stocked and in a great location within a gorgeous resort.

First, I must give kudos to Brian and the Reality, they were extremely responsive to the problems encountered. A software changeover caused issues with my final payment and check-in information, but they were able to resolve them with only minor difficulties. The property itself is just “ok”. The carpet in the master is threadbare and stained, the couch cushions have seen better days and one of the bedroom mattresses needs replacing. In addition, the instructions on using the tv and ac were either incorrect or non-existent. It was also a little irritating that I was staying 3 weeks and they only provided 1 week’s worth of dishwasher soap, trash can liners and laundry pods. Overall, the price was right for an “ok” 3 bedroom, but I’ll probably pay a little more next time (and I come every year) for a little better maintained unit
This property was in a perfect location where we were able to walk to and from the Mauna Lani Hotel beach. We enjoyed our time and have already recommended this spot to other people.
Really enjoyed our stay- had everything we needed and made for a very comfortable vacation. Great location with many beaches and shopping close by. Excellent golf courses as well. We would stay here again
If you want a quiet and refreshing stay this is the place. Nice ammenities, attentive host, quality appointed features and comfortable setting.
Would return for sure.
We had a great time and stay at your condo. Appreciate all the beach supplies like coolers, chairs, umbrellas and snorkeling gear.
Grounds and pool are beautifully maintained.
We stayed here for a long weekend with my young adult and teenage children, as well as my brother and sister-in-law. We had plenty to do with access to the beach/beach club and the pool at the condo complex. The snorkeling was great at the beach. It was close enough to Kona to enjoy some activities down then, then it was nice to return to the peace and quiet. I would absolutely stay here again.
The location is excellent, the pool was fantastic, and we used the BBQ, which was clean and of good quality. Typical in older properties the lack of soundproofing insulation is to be expected, you could hear the individuals upstairs like a herd of elephants. The unit had cleaning supplies, a vacuum and a host package with garbage bags, laundry detergent, dishwasher cubes etc.The check-in and support were fantastic, clear and concise. All in all, it is an excellent property.
Great location and proximity to everything, beach, shopping and pool. It was a bottom floor unit and unfortunately the guests above were not courteous and you could hear them walking loud and playing music at all different times. The AC unit is outside one of the bedroom windows and is very loud for whomever is in that bedroom but overall we had a wonderful time! Mahalo for sharing your home!
The property was awesome and it was perfect for kids. The pool area was even better than we anticipated and was right across the street from the unit. The location can’t be beat. We would definitely stay here again. The garage is small and really can’t fit a Ford expedition, which is a common large car rental on the island, but using the common parking spots was not an issue. Smaller cars would fit without any problem. Only other thing to be aware of is that it is a bottom unit, so we could hear the group above us at times, but again the space was great and we preferred having access to the very nice grounds and grassy areas from the lanai.
We enjoyed our stay at this VRBO. The grounds were lovely, the living areas were spacious, and overall we found it to be reasonably clean. The area was fairly walkable given the amenities included: nearby stores and restaurants, walks to the fish pond, the pool and hot tub access, etc. Some of the living quarters needed a little TLC such as burnt out light bulbs in the kitchen, remote control instructions that didn't go with a remote, and an entertainment center that blocked some of the TV views and had doors and drawers that were difficult to open. If you have anything larger than a RAV4 I'd suggest abandoning the idea of parking in the garage and opt for the parking spaces within the property. We had mere inches in front and back of our Jeep Grand Cherokee when parked in the garage. The beach gear provided was in good shape and we used it frequently. The provided instructions by the hosts were very detailed but a little redundant and overwhelming, however, they were responsive and kind in all of our interactions. All in all I found the value for the price to be good.
The unit is great, and the resort is very well maintained. We loved our time here.I stayed here with my 11 month old, wife and parents and it had plenty of space. The beach club access is also a huge perk of this unit and we spent most of our time there. Brian, the contact for the unit is super accommodating and easy to communicate with.
Host was great, Bryon actually met us at the gate. The toaster was very poor and needed to held down during the toasting process.Rugs are a trip hazard, and the master bed frame was apart when we arrived at the head of the bed. This is our 3rd time staying in the Mani Lani condos and the second time in the Palm Villas. This unit needs upgrades and care. Mahalo!
