Why the Owner Chose Villages at Mauna Lani
Mauna Lani is situated in the heart of the sunny Kohala coast. As past renters in The Villages, we like the privacy of the homes, quality of construction and the close proximity to the shops. The Villages' pool has a very nice temperature that is great for kids of all ages! We enjoy hanging out at the beach club and taking walks through the lava caves and fishponds. We love to play golf and tennis in Mauna Lani!
The Unique Benefits at this Condo
We enjoy our home because of the open layout to the lanai and yard. We also like the quick walk to the shops for the newspaper in the morning and the short stroll to the pool. We keep a bin with beach and pool toys for our guests to use.
Wonderful spa services for guests, bike rentals, lap pool, tennis and weightroom.
The warm pool at Mauna Lani! Nice size with whirlpool spa, 4 lounge chairs submerged in 6 inches of water on a pool deck and a nice size kiddie pool great for the little ones. Included in this area is

We were just blown away by how spacious and lovely the house actually is, and especially by the fact that we had exclusive access to the premier snorkeling beach on the island. Wow! Couldn't have been a better home base for our vacation. True luxury and plenty of space for 3 couples. Thanks Kathryn and family!

We traveled to the Big Island with five other couples to have some fun and play golf. We actually rented two places - one of which was Kathryn's. It was very nice - even better than the pictures! The owner, Kathryn, was very easy to deal with - professional and concerned that everything was perfect. The condo is close to shopping and very centrally located within the Mauna Lani Resort. We have traveled to Mauna Lani for the past 18 years and this was our first experience renting a condo there. However we have rented several properties thru VRBO - always successful. We definitely prefer to rent directly from the owner to avoid any problems. I guess the best review I can give is that we will definitely rent this unit again! Thanks Kathryn for everything.

Beautiful Home and an Awesome Vacation

Thanks Kathryn for sharing your beautiful vacation home on the Big Island. We were a group of five (ages 7-72) and all of us had a wonderful vacation. Your home was gorgeous and well-equipped. It was centrally located next to a world-class spa and tennis courts (2 minute drive), Hapuna beach (10 minute drive), Kailua-Kona (30 minute drive), resorts (the Orchid, Mauna Lani, Mauna Kea, Prince Hapuna), shopping, including gourmet groceries (1 minute drive or 3 minute walk), most importantly, the amazing Beach Club (5 minute drive). Not only was it a protected cove with amazing snorkeling, but it had a great restaurant for lunch, dinner and drinks (live Hawaiian music on weekends too). In any event, we all loved your home and can't wait for our next visit. Thanks again! The Greenbergs (from San Francisco and Essex, CT)
Owner response:Thank you for including the proximity to the wonderful amenities and beaches on the Kohala coast in your review- I hope our future guests find it helpful- Mahalo! Kathryn

Great location, excellent value, clean, well maintained, and well stocked. Thank you for exceeding our expectations at every turn. Easy three minute walks to the pool/fitness area or shopping center (with an excellent grocery store,) so with kids ages 9 & 11, the location was perfect. Short five minute drive to the beach club.......great snorkeling, interesting fish ponds, and a terrific dive operator. We did not bring our golf clubs, but the links looked outstanding during my morning walks around the resort and shoreline. All electronics and WiFi worked perfectly. This was my first VRBO "experience". Owner was responsive, friendly, and a pleasure to do business with. Our deposit was returned promptly. Thanks for everything Kathryn........ When I return to the Kona cost, I will check this calendar first for availability!
Owner response:Thank you for your helpful review! We are so glad you had a wonderful time and look forward to your return! Sincerely, Kathryn

We had the pleasure of staying in this wonderful home for a month. The owners have done a wonderful job decorating the home and it is very clean and well kept. The full size washer and dryer and outdoor kitchen were big pluses. Having such a wonderful place to come home to after a day of adventure on the big island made our trip all the more enjoyable. Any requests or questions we had we had were always answered in a timely fashion. We'll be back. Thanks again Kathy!

Dear Kathryn, My family enjoyed staying at your beautiful home. I just wish we had planned on staying longer and hope we can return soon. I will recommend your home to my friends who have heard our stories and are enamored with the concept of bundling a race and a family vacation in Kona.

Thanks again for everything. Your house was amazing - beautiful, so spacious, equipped with everything we could have needed, and in such a convenient location. We loved how close the shops (especially the amazing grocery market!), the pool, and the well-equipped fitness room were. We were on the island for a friend's wedding and we couldn't have picked a better location for meeting up with the larger group for outings to the different beaches and various resorts. I definitely hope to be able to stay at your home again and have and will recommend it to anyone. Also, it was really nice to have the afternoon to get our things organized before our flight Monday evening. We were able to finish just about all of the laundry so hopefully your cleaners didn't mind the change of schedule! Hope all is well in Alaska. Thanks again for all of your time and help. Diane

Hi Kathryn, I hope you are able to use your vacation home often. Mauna Lani is a premier community and your home is extremely comfortable. I forget if I told you... your home was very clean when we arrived, and the task list (a kitchen light) was completed while we were there. You've selected a good crew. I look forward to the day that we can rent your home for a month, Jim
