Ralph is the most organized and responsive VRBO host we've ever rented from. The condo itself is great - very clean, and very organized. Ralph has thought of everything. The beds and pillows were high quality and very comfortable. The towels and provided toiletries were great. The beach equipment was an added bonus - lots of kids snorkel equipment, boogie boards, pool noodles, beach umbrellas, and a wagon. There is 1 kid size life jacket which was nice to have for my younger snorkeler. The pool is shared with the Ka Milo development to the north but always had lots of chairs and shade. There is a lap pool, a hot tub and a fitness center there. Being able to use the Gem cart is reason enough to book - just a few minutes down the road to the Fairmont Orchid, a few minutes the other direction to the grocery store (be prepared for $7 milk and $10 bread), Tommy Bahama restaurant, and the Island Taproom had good IPAs. The Fairmont Orchid restaurant was underwhelming but we ate one night at Beach Tree at the Four Seasons Hualalai (30 min south) and it was fantastic. The Mauna Lani Beach Club is 5 minutes by cart and had the calmest water and best snorkeling in our time there. Plus beach chairs and a restaurant good for lunch. The neighborhood is very quiet and much more relaxed than Waikaloa to the south. Great for families. Overall this is a fantastic home base to explore the Big Island or just hang out in the resort areas along the Kohala cost. We will definitely be back!

There were so many things to do! Having the cart to drive to the beaches was fantastic. The access to the resort parking was a huge perk! The house was beautiful and we had everything we needed for a great trip!

All the comforts of home and more!
We enjoyed time around the pool, the private beach and evenings at the Fairmont Orchid resort. 20 minutes to some of the best beaches on the Kona coast.
Conveniently located in Mauna Lani and walking distance to restaurants and groceries. But who needs to walk when you have access to a GEM EV cart?
Ralph was the perfect host; available when needed to get us settled in.
We’ll be back!

Everything we wanted and more the accommodations were amazing and Ralph went above and beyond with providing us with suggestions and options while we stayed at his property. I would love to go back again some time in the near future it was that great of a Senior Trip for my Son and our entire Family.

I was on the big island for a conference. This home is close to the beach and an easy drive around the entire island. The home had everything we needed including a GEM cart to get around the resort. Would 100% stay here again!

Everything was great! Loved the condo. The GEM cart was used more than i thought it would be. Great to run to the pool, grocery store, and beach club. We've stayed in this area before, but Ralph makes this condo the best. Perfect size for what we needed and Ralph is great. Will definitely stay again and highly recommend!

If you’re early or lucky enough to book this place because it’s still available, definitely book it.
Ralph’s attention to detail shows and it made our stay just that little bit better because we had everything we could possibly need: from essentials like beach stuff like chairs and umbrellas, to things that would be nice to have - pool noodles, boogie boards, snorklers, to things that was just made the stay a little extra - two sets of beach towels for everyone so you didn’t have to be so vigilant with washing the ones you used that same day and even little mini clips for big chip bags!
The GEM cart was a big plus in making us feel we were really on vacation. It was nice not to have to take the car to the fitness center, tennis courts, grocery shopping or beach club.
A big bonus of staying here was finding out we were able to access Puako Bay from the complex! Although the condo is on the other side of the complex to the beach club, it is less than 5 mins away in the Gem Cart to the Southern part of Puako Bay. This was my favorite beach by far. I saw a turtle swimming and another one sunbathing on multiple days.
Thank you Ralph for making our stay so memorable!!

E Komo Mai is an immaculate but comfortabe condo in a great resort area. Cruising around the property in the electric golf cart and on bikes was a treat. The tennis/pickle ball facility was fantastic and even had peloton bikes. Reserving courts was free. A short drive to the best beaches on the island. And Ralph was a hospitable and attentive host. I highy recommend E Komo Mai. We will definitely stay here again the next time we are on the big island!

We had a wonderful time at this property! The place was spacious and clean. Tons of beach toys/pool toys/snorkel gear in the garage. They had bikes, helmets, pool noodles, beach bag - everything you could think of! We loved riding the GEM cart around. We had access to the Mauna Lani Sport and Fitness center which was a huge plus! The host was very responsive and checked in on us a few times. Excellent! Thanks again!
