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.

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.

Definitely recommend for family stay

We had a great stay. This unit is at the Palm Villas in Mauna Lani which is a very nice condo complex. It’s close to the beach club — you can walk but it’s a bit far if you’re hauling beach chairs, etc., so it’s nice there’s a parking option. Also close to the shopping area with Foodland grocery store. Definitely recommend for a family stay. Unit was clean and well-kept.

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.
