Phenomenal home base for our family of 7 to spend Christmas week on the Big Island. Excellent and prompt communication with the owner leading up to the trip, and a friendly welcome from the host when we arrived.
First off, the home was perfect in size, cleanliness and amenities. Loved the outdoor cooking and eating space, kitchen spacious for family meals, and spaces spread out for everyone to take a break from forced family fun time :D
Access to the beach club was great (and enjoyed walking down there in the mornings through the lava park by the ponds), and the shops at Mauna Lani (especially the grocery store a few steps away) were super convenient for food, coffee, and the extra outdoor clothing/items which teenagers tend to forget to pack.
Location was quiet, peaceful and beautiful, and the short drive access down into town was perfect. Was hard to leave at the end of our trip - amazing property!

This was our first stay on the Big Island. We had originally booked on Maui but then the fire happened and our home was needed to house displaced families so we switched to this island. We were so happy to find this place because it was similar to what we had booked on Maui. We were a family of 6 adults and wanted space to spread out and this was it!
Kathryn was fabulous - we arrived late on Thanksgiving night and she was willing to purchase some frozen pizzas and POG for us to leave in the fridge because everything would be closed and we'd be starving when we arrived. But, there is an upscale Food Land literally next door that opened at 6 am the next day so it as easy to get food for breakfast.
The house was clean and comfortable. We loved that every bedroom was an ensuite. The beds were very comfy and the air conditioning worked great with separate upstairs and downstairs units. The kitchen was very well equipped and after a run to Costco, we cooked a couple of meals a day at the house. We loved the walls of sliding glass. It was lovely to open them in the morning and evening and catch cross breezes. Bonus that they all had screens to keep the critters out but let the breeze in.
We loved this house and the host was the best. I'm a travel agent and will recommend it 100% to anyone looking for a great stay on the Big Island!

Our family of 5 had a terrific stay in this high-end property. We loved its location in the Mauna Lani resort, in direct walking distance to shops and restaurants, and with a great private beach club and pool too. The property itself was well-stocked with all needed amenities and many extras.

We had an amazing stay. Everything was made easy. The house was ready when we arrived, it was stocked with everything you could need, and the owners were simply amazing. When we go on vacation, we want it to be stress free. That’s exactly what we got. Far exceeded our expectations!

This was a nice property for a relaxing time. There were lots of beach accessories in the garage, although not well organized. The pool was a little disappointing in size, but was well kept.

Our first time staying in Mauna Lani and this property was outstanding. Very well stocked and in an excellent location! Access to the beach in Mauna Lani and an outstanding pool for our grandkids were two of the highlights! Kathryn was incredibly responsive and one of the best owners we have every dealt with in all of the years we have rented property in Hawaii and in other parts of the world. We will be back!
