Perfect location just a block from the clubhouse with excellent amenities and 10 minutes from the beach. House was spacious and had everything we could need from boogie boards to cooking items. Pool and backyard were the perfect touch. Propert manger was so easy to communicate with and very helpful. Canβt wait to go back.

Thank you so much Alicia, we're so glad that you loved Kauna'oa 8A and would return. We're happy it compared favorably to other homes at the Mauna Kea Resort. You were a joy to host and we hope you can come back soon!
Krish was great throughout reservation answering and supporting my questions every step of the way. The house is fantastic in many ways even better than pictures. The one area that was disappointing and could be improved is bedroom four and the downstairs bathrooms. Bedroom 4 has no dresser and no mirror. No drawers! Occupants of the room were at a real disadvantage. And making the occupants share the bathroom in the en-suite bedroom next door is impractical with the glass window between the bathroom and that bedroom. We made it work but wasnβt easy or appreciated. Definitely not set up for four couples, even if turn twin beds into a king bed. Maybe small children would work. We had twenty year olds using room and proved to be a challenge sharing bath with the couple in the en-suite bedroom.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review Wayne! I'm so glad you enjoyed the home. You make excellent points about the fourth bedroom. I will speak to the owner about adding a dresser. And it's true that there is no shower for that bedroom - only the powder room, and three other bedrooms that have dedicated full bathrooms. A possible solution is to add an outdoor shower to the fourth bedroom, or to add one more bathroom to that bedroom. The owners and I have already discussed this, and I will share your review with them. Thank you again for taking the time to provide such helpful and accurate feedback!
