The house was just perfect from layout, location to facilities and amenities. The host provided enough amenities and pool/beach items for a large group. Will definitely stay here again.

Fantastic time at Mauna Lani - we used our stay to 'beach' and explore the northern end of the Island. This house is REALLY well equipped with beach and street toys - no need to buy or rent. Very well thought out offering.

Good townhouse with very thin floor and bad acoustics, obviously rented a lot - not a huge attention to detail and inflexible management on items such as check out - given steep Xmas pricing, I expected a little more from house. Also bbq is old and worked so so

Great place. Location a little isolated from lots of other places but very nice if you don’t want to travel to southern part of the island. Distance to anywhere outside the immediate village was at least 30 minutes. One must understand this is the BIG island. Shortcomings: snorkel gear was either broken or is disarray and except for one adult set was basically unusable. When alerted, the property manager did bring one new adult set and two sets for small children. Didn’t really help us much as we had 8 adults and 2 teens, both of whom were larger than some adults. The bicycles had flat tires except for one. When alerted, the property manager came and pumped up the tires of the one good bike, leaving the other two flat. Tip for the next travelers: If something isn’t working or is broken, alert manager immediately. That way you can at least enjoy the equipment while there. We waited, and by the time we alerted the manager, we lost out because the hurricane winds closed all the beaches. All things considered, we enjoyed the island, enjoyed the sights and national parks, and marveled at the difference in rugged beauty from the other islands we’ve visited. Just know, this island isn’t like the others. The beaches are small, rockier, and therefore crowded.

We came with all 19 of us, children and grandchildren, and booked two houses. They are the same floor plan, very family friendly! They are clean and well stocked-port a crib, high chair, toiletries, spices and cookware! The sand castle villa even has a motorized spit for the grill to roast pineapple (it was delicious!) We realized on our first day, a Sunday, that the washing machine in one of the homes wasn’t working, so I texted the management company and they sent someone out that day. When they said the washer couldn’t be fixed, they offered us the use of an empty property until it could be replaced. They came out and replaced it the next day! They responded quickly to every question or request. The grounds are beautiful, the pools are nice, and the mauna lani beach club is perfect for the little kids, and awesome for snorkelers! We saw sharks, eels, octopus…honestly some of the best and easiest snorkeling I’ve done in Hawaii! And for the older kids, Hapuna beach is just a few minutes away, great for boogie boarding, body surfing, and jumping in the waves! Close to shopping and restaurants, far from the noise and crowds of downtown! We loved our stay and can’t wait to book again!

Wonderful location. Well-stocked with all the things you need - wagon, boogie boards, floaties and sand toys. They even have a monitor for our kids room. Nice, quiet location. The mauna lani beach club is amazing too.

House is centrally located to numerous outstanding golf courses. We played three courses in four days, and had a great time! Plenty of room at the house, well stocked with the basics, and tons of beach gear to borrow!

We enjoyed a family reunion at this wonder house. Five adults and 4 children and there was lots of privacy, with 2 master suites and 2 other bedrooms, all big and beautifully furnished. Very big kitchen with everything one needs for cooking, plus a great bbq grill right on the lanai. Kids had a blast going to the pool just a few steps away. Our vacation was wonderful and we will certainly recommend this home to others. We will be back!
