Reviews
We had an amazing stay near the Mauna Lani resort. The house is well equipped with everything you need for the beach, and has the best equipped kitchen I have ever seen in an VRBO. The hosts are very responsive, there is a nice reading library, and some fun Easter eggs throughout the house. It is in a comfortable golf course community with many birds, we even saw a gaggle of turkeys one morning while we were having breakfast!
Sorry for the overdue review. We came home and got busy with Xmas and New Year. Our stay at Sara’s home was excellent! There was only one positive review at the time of my booking so I decided to take a chance. It turned out perfect! The house was so clean and new. It has EVERYTHING you need to make our stay so enjoyable. We ended up cooking 3 dinner at the condo and the kids love it. There is a nearby market where we can bought food to prepare our meals. I am a runner so I would get up early to do my run around the area. The beach at the club is enjoyable and calm. We also enjoyed the 49 black beach near by. We used the bikes to get to the beach club. The house has snorkeling gears, beach bag, beach chairs, beach towels, surf boards, beach umbrellas (I love it so much I ordered one for myself:)) I am Asian so I love the fact that she even have nice and rice cooker in the kitchen!.I had two grown kids so I wish the bed downstairs is a king instead of a queen but that is our personal need not important. Sara is very good with responding to my questions and text. We would highly recommend Sara’s home for your next stay on the Big Island. Thank you
