AMAZING!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Loved that it was close to the tennis/pickleball courts. Every morning we enjoyed our walk through the fish ponds to a beautiful private beach for those staying on the Mauna Lani Resort grounds. We spent 6 nights in the Condo and then moved to the Mauna Lani Auberge Resort for 4 nights with my husbands company. Don't get me wrong, it's a gorgeous resort but we missed the condo terribly. If I could I would give this property a 10 star review!! Can't wait to go back.

Mains Lani Gem!

Great location and proximity to everything, beach, shopping and pool. It was a bottom floor unit and unfortunately the guests above were not courteous and you could hear them walking loud and playing music at all different times. The AC unit is outside one of the bedroom windows and is very loud for whomever is in that bedroom but overall we had a wonderful time! Mahalo for sharing your home!

Great Condo in Mauni Lani

Very well stocked kitchen, beach towels, beach chairs, umbrellas etc. Spacious and a great view of the gardens and pool. Great location and the use of the beach club is well worth it. Highly recommend this place. We have been to the state of Hawaii about 10 times now and this was the nicest place we have stayed so far. Others have had a view of the ocean but this was a great quiet relaxing spot with the best pool. 3rd time to the Big Island. Mauni Lani is the best place to stay. Snorkeled with the Manta Rays and went to a magic show nearby at the Queens Marketplace, snorkeled 7 days in a row, Beach 49, TwoStep, Capt Cook, and most days at the Beach Club. It was great. We have been snorkeling for 40 years and it never gets old.

Beautiful condo

We had a great time but my husband complaint about the hot tub not working the 4 nights we stayed. That was his only request anywhere i booked a condo. Also, we were a total of 5 and only 4 beach towels were available. We could not take bath towels out. My husband and i had to share a beach towel everytime we went to the beach which was the 4 days.

lovely but...

The floors were dirty. We removed our shoes at the door and then had filthy feet. Within the extensive check in/check out rules and expectations was the indication that there was a discount at the "private" golf course. That was not accurate. The bath towels were old and scratchy. It's a lovely location and the unit is upscale. However the rules are onerous.

Clean and Roomy

Really loved the overall condo and all the supplies provided in the unit. One thing to consider with kids, they are very strict about keeping the pool quiet even during the middle of the day. They kept telling us it was. "quiet pool" and we were not allowed to make noise. I asked about a "loud" pool and they said that none of the pools allowed noise. That can be fairly hard with three active kids.

Incredible Location

We rented the condo over the Christmas break and we were pleasantly surprised by the location and it’s easy access to the beach on Kohanla coast. The condo is furnished with everything you need for a perfect Hawaii getaway, just bring your swim suit and have a great time. With grocery stores, and some incredible restaurants within 5 min drive you can have a great cookout in the lanai or have a dinner with an incredible views at Napua. The condo comes with sand toys for the kids as well as paddle boarding & snorkeling gear for the family. The beach access via lava tubes and fish pond is perfect to start and end your day, and the Petroglyphs park is just a mile away for a fun hike. Although we didn’t golf the location of south course is simply incredible with fairways having Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa on one side while the beautiful Pacific on the other. On a sunny day you might get a glimpse of Maui across the ocean.

Puako

Very nicely landscaped, and quiet property. Heated pool is large, but as others have noted they really want quiet in the pool area, even in the middle of the day, so please be aware of that if you have children. The other thing to be aware of is that the complex insists that you park in the garage. Don't think you can park in a visitors spot for 30 min just to run in and change, as you will find a friendly reminder note on your windshield. The unit itself has coolers, beach toys boogie boards, and snorkel stuff in the garage, beach towels in the 'hidden' closet in the 2nd bathroom, and a very well stocked kitchen. The ocean at the beach club is gentle and the sand perfect for young children. The site is well located with most everything in the area within easy driving distance. We enjoyed our stay! thank you

Mauna Lani

Great location, excellent accommodations and good customer service from the property management group. The only negative was a guy acting as “the police” for the resort. As others have said, he was rude to guests and others, including being rude to my two daughters. He was harassing a young couple with kids as he thought the kids were too noisy…they were not. But aside him, this place is great. Shops, the beach with snorkeling all within walking distance. We would come back again.

Excellent location

The location is excellent, the pool was fantastic, and we used the BBQ, which was clean and of good quality. Typical in older properties the lack of soundproofing insulation is to be expected, you could hear the individuals upstairs like a herd of elephants. The unit had cleaning supplies, a vacuum and a host package with garbage bags, laundry detergent, dishwasher cubes etc.The check-in and support were fantastic, clear and concise. All in all, it is an excellent property.

A solid choice

We enjoyed our stay at this VRBO. The grounds were lovely, the living areas were spacious, and overall we found it to be reasonably clean. The area was fairly walkable given the amenities included: nearby stores and restaurants, walks to the fish pond, the pool and hot tub access, etc. Some of the living quarters needed a little TLC such as burnt out light bulbs in the kitchen, remote control instructions that didn't go with a remote, and an entertainment center that blocked some of the TV views and had doors and drawers that were difficult to open. If you have anything larger than a RAV4 I'd suggest abandoning the idea of parking in the garage and opt for the parking spaces within the property. We had mere inches in front and back of our Jeep Grand Cherokee when parked in the garage. The beach gear provided was in good shape and we used it frequently. The provided instructions by the hosts were very detailed but a little redundant and overwhelming, however, they were responsive and kind in all of our interactions. All in all I found the value for the price to be good.

Family trip

The property was awesome and it was perfect for kids. The pool area was even better than we anticipated and was right across the street from the unit. The location can’t be beat. We would definitely stay here again. The garage is small and really can’t fit a Ford expedition, which is a common large car rental on the island, but using the common parking spots was not an issue. Smaller cars would fit without any problem. Only other thing to be aware of is that it is a bottom unit, so we could hear the group above us at times, but again the space was great and we preferred having access to the very nice grounds and grassy areas from the lanai.

Great Location for a Long Family Weekend

We stayed here for a long weekend with my young adult and teenage children, as well as my brother and sister-in-law. We had plenty to do with access to the beach/beach club and the pool at the condo complex. The snorkeling was great at the beach. It was close enough to Kona to enjoy some activities down then, then it was nice to return to the peace and quiet. I would absolutely stay here again.

Comfortable and Clean Condo with Beautiful views

This was a very clean and comfortable condo with great views of the back lanai. The pool area was beautiful (and close) and the walk to the beach area has plenty to see including lava caves and fish ponds as well as a very nice sand beach. It was great to have snorkel gear in the garage. We definitely took advantage of that. Eating in the resort restaurant was pretty expensive so we grilled a lot of meals at the condo. The grill was right on the lanai so we didn't have to leave to a common area to do so. All in all, a good experience!
