Excellent home for four adults and two kids. Well stocked and incredible sunsets every night. I liked the location, up a bit on the mountain but close to everything - 5 min drive to Mauna Kea resort and the Westin. I recommend paying the fee to have the option to use the resorts - Mauna Kea resort beach exceeded expectations, not overcrowded. I would definitely stay again. Thank you!
Beautiful home with great location. Property management was great and very responsive.
Situated on a golf course above the ocean with a great view. Beautiful home with well equipped kitchen and small pool and jacuzzi. Beds comfortable and large smart tv in living room but standard tv in bedrooms. Air conditioning control in each bedroom worked well. Shower in master bedroom required 5 minutes for hot water. Garage contained owners car and could not be used. Property well maintained. Adriana responsive to questions.
Stayed for 21 nights in Jan 25. Very clean and well equipped property. Fantastic views!
The location can not be beat!
This home is beautiful and very well equipped with everything that we needed. We loved that we had access to the beach club at The Mauna Kea. However, be aware that The Mauna Kea is undergoing a huge renovation and there is a lot of noise during the day. The kitchen is very large, we were able to have a chef come in and cook for us a few nights while there. The backyard is very nice with a beautiful pool. I highly recommend.
We loved the home and all the amenities!
Our daughters loved the home. It was a beautiful experience seeing them get ready for the wedding. Everyone loved the home. We will be back!
This was a great property. It was clean and very comfortable. The beds, often a problem at places, were amazing and everyone woke up refreshed. The views from the lanai are amazing and we were treated to stunning sunsets every evening. To make it even better, Adriana was able to provide quick answers to our questions. Overall, I highly recommend this property. Mahalo!
The property is clean and very comfortable. The beds, often a problem with rentals, were really great. The views of the sunset here are simply amazing. On top of that, Adriana was extremely responsive to any questions or requests.
This is a beautiful property inside and out! The views of the sunsets and golf course are lovely. Fun seeing the goats on the course. Pool and Jacuzzi were a plus and access to the 2 resorts kept us all busy and relaxing. All 9 of us loved this property!
