Wonderfully spacious home, beautifully decorated, has all supplies that you would need in the kitchen and for the beach. Beautiful sunsets every night that you can see from back patio. The swimming pool and hot tub were so nice to have in the backyard to dip into multiple times a day! So comfortable and we would definitely return. Quiet setting with privacy! Beaches are 5 minutes away. Well worth the price! Our family had a great time!

The Mauna Kea Waiulaula Villa was absolutely amazing. The pool and spa were our favorite amenities. The view is fantastic and the kitchen is very well organized. The house was stocked with everything we needed, including beach equipment. The gas BBQ grill is nice as well, and we made dinner at the house a few evenings. The house is conveniently located near multiple beaches, golf courses and made for easy day trips to Kona and Waimea. Donna was a delight to work with and was extremely helpful. We had to tack on an additional night, and she made the process very easy. There was even a lovely bottle of champagne waiting for us at check-in. We would definitely stay here again.

We had an excellent stay at Donna’s home in Mauna Kea. The house is one of the best-appointed vacation homes we’ve stayed in. Everything felt high quality and thoughtfully set up, from the kitchen equipment and appliances to the furnishings, outdoor areas, and overall amenities. It had everything we needed and made the house very comfortable and easy to enjoy.The location is also fantastic and provided a great base for everything we wanted to do on the Big Island. Donna was wonderful to work with—responsive, helpful, and easy to communicate with throughout our stay.Overall, this was an outstanding rental and exceeded our expectations. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a high-quality home in the Mauna Kea area.

I'm so happy you enjoyed the resort access. It's a big job for them to house non-hotel guests but for sure, the owner's annual fee that allows guests to buy is a gift of appreciation! Mahalo 🌺 Donna

Home was as pictured in the photos. Kitchen had top of the line appliances and was well stocked for at home meals. We spent most of the time outdoors on the lanai and in the pool/hot tub, as well as at the beach and pool at the Mauna Lani. Only downside was Internet was unstable for work, TV.

Beautiful home

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay during our time on the Big Island. The home was absolutely amazing. The two bedroom suites made our stay very comfortable and the home is stocked with almost everything you could possibly need. The home was also very clean. The neighborhood is quiet and the ability to go to the resort on the property to spend time on the beach was an added bonus. Would definitely stay here again. It doesn’t disappoint.

We had an amazing stay at Mauna Kea Waiulaula Villa 329 and couldn’t have been happier with the experience. The home is beautifully furnished with upscale finishes and an incredible ocean view that we enjoyed every day. The location is fantastic, quiet and private, yet super convenient with easy access to the Westin and nearby resort amenities.The kitchen was very well stocked with tons of amenities, which made cooking and spending time at the villa easy and enjoyable. Everything felt thoughtfully set up, comfortable, and welcoming, truly a place you can settle into and relax.Donna was an incredible host; friendly, responsive, and helpful from start to finish. She made the entire stay seamless and stress-free.We loved our time here and would absolutely stay again.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay and truly felt at home from the moment we arrived. We were visiting for our son’s graduation from HPA and the property truly felt like our home away from home. Everything was thoughtfully designed for people who genuinely enjoy spending time together.The beds, sheets, and incredibly soft towels made every night feel like a high-end resort experience. The open-concept living room with the disappearing wall created an amazing indoor-outdoor flow that we used constantly, and the kitchen and BBQ area were beautifully appointed and exceptionally functional.One of our favorite discoveries was the neighborhood infinity pool and gym, which also served as the site for our son’s graduation party. We loved exploring the restaurants throughout the resort. Manta’s seared ahi tuna was truly unforgettable. What stood out most, though, was the feeling that no matter what adventure we went on during the day, we always had an incredibly comfortable place to return to at night. That feeling became the foundation of the entire vacation.The small details elevated everything: bedside charging ports, excellent WiFi, Sonos sound system, powerful AC, outdoor showers, a huge refrigerator, beautiful stemware, cloth napkins, sharp kitchen knives — all of it added up to a home that felt cared for and exceptionally well-appointed . Our host was the best. She was always a text away and super helpful whenever we needed anything. My take - best VRBO to date

The property manager’s communication made a point to reach out to me with any info and return any of my messages promptly.

We also had a bottle of nice wine waiting for us when we arrived (was actually the same wine we had at our wedding <3).

Great place away from it all

This house is very nice. Well appointed, comfortable, etc. On the less favorable side, we could not see the sunset from the backyard, it's 45 minutes to most of the restaurants (main town) and I had to pay extra if I wanted to heat the pool/spa. We enjoyed our stay very much, but might have shopped a little more if I had know the less favorable facts. Aloha!

Response from VrboOwner on Jun 22, 2022
Aloha! I am so sorry! We have tons of restaurants within 10 minutes and something like 10 in the resort. Kona is 45 minutes away but closer towns and resorts have tones of dining! Our concierge could have helped! SO sorry. Yes, there is no natural gas on any of the Hawaii islands. We have gas delivered to the homes. Isn't that crazy? So heating the pool/hot tub is a luxury for sure! You will find that price either built into the nightly rate, not offered at all, or my research has showed twice the price to heat the pools. But we SO appreciated your stay and gosh! I'm one row before your home (I can see the vila) and I have sunsets every night! I will pop over and look tonight! Mahalo for your stay!!!
