This was our second time to stay at this same property. Excellent experience again. The property is clean and spacious. It is well stocked with beach amenities as well as equipment for snorkeling. Bikes were available for use as well. The beach club pass is very nice feature as well. Communication with the host for a couple of minor issues was very easy and timely, with any concerns quickly addressed. Will definitely stay here again for our next trip to the big island!

We had the best stay at this property. We were there with our large family of 8 kids ( 21, 16, 15, 12, 9, 6, 4, 2) and there was comfortable sleeping arrangements for all of us and my husband and I. I loved having the playpen which we set up in the walk in closet with the baby monitor for the 2 year old. The snorkel gear, life jackets for the littles and bikes were so appreciated. The pool was a delight and the fitness center was used everyday and was just a short 3 minutes walk down the road. Costco delivery was available and super handy. We loved our stay here and would recommend it to anyone!

Our family vacations annually in Hawaii and we have stayed in the Ka’Milo association before. When others were charging an exorbitant amount for high peak season, this condo was appropriately priced. The location is perfect for what we want to do- beach, swim, snorkel, relax. The community pool is just a few minutes walk away and having access to the private beach club is a huge bonus. The condo was clean and kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. We cooked most meals there so having a well stocked kitchen was great. Beach towels, boogie boards, chairs, umbrellas all provided and in good shape. Bikes were a plus and helpful to get around, although all of the bikes could use a good tune up. With our group of 7, there was plenty of room in the condo to spread out. The beds are clean and comfy and having two of the bedrooms with their own private bath was so nice. The lanai is peaceful with a large table and gas grill to enjoy outdoors meals and morning coffee. I really appreciated the attentiveness of the management company, if I emailed them with a question or concern, they responded within an hour to answer my questions. I would stay here again without hesitation and recommend to others.

Our stay on the Big Island will forever be one of our favorite family trips. We were first thinking about staying on a resort. I found this listing and thought that Mauna Lani could be the best (or better) of both worlds - walking distance to a beautiful pool, access to a quieter "private" beach, and lots more space. We loved cooking in the spacious kitchen, enjoying our coffee on the lanai in the morning while listening to the chorus of birds, and the proximity we had to so many things (pool, beach club, Fairmont Orchid, the Auberge, shopping center). I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Scale of 1-10: 7
Maintenance of property below average: holes in walls/ceilings on lower level; exterior obviously meets HOA requirements, but interior shows lack of good periodic investment
Interior furniture dated and inadequate for large group use; sitting area needs more chairs, consideration of different layout, lighting inadequate
Deck furniture good but cushions need to be replaced as lumbar pillows missing and seat cushions are worn out and uncomfortable
Grill broken: starter not functional; knobs don't work ... dangerous; as a result only used one time
Ice maker non-functional
Dishwasher noisy ... sounds like a grinder operating
Kitchen stock: only 2 wine glasses; other items okay
Water sports gear ... some items broken; no life jackets etc. provided as stated; periodic review of these items is not adequate
TV: directions for accessing Netflix/Apple TV inadequate ... multiple remotes make things difficult to say the least
Some promised kitchen ammenities (e.g. popcorn, other minor things) did not exist
Nice neighborhood; pools & exercise room are great; access to beach club a big bonus; home property beautiful

My wife and kids had an incredible experience in Hawaii and booking Jeff and Suzanne’s beautiful home in Mauna Lani was the main reason why.
Home was large with wonderful accommodations. Location was fantastic, walking distance from a beautiful beach, restaurants, grocery store, shops, golf course, a pool and hot tub.
I highly recommend booking Jeff and Suzanne’s villa to anyone with a family looking to visit the Kona area and experience luxury living accommodations.

There were nine of us overnighting in the house, including two super seniors and three teenagers. The house is superb for a mini family reunion with enough comfortable bedding and areas for relaxation to accommodate everyone. Kitchen facilities were adequate for preparation and service of various cuisines, although, because we preplanned menus, we did bring in from home our own rolling pin and K-cup coffee maker. [Our primary residence is on the East side of the Big Island so bringing the extras was easy for us.]

This house if very cozy. Enough room for my entire family who are all adults. It was nice that there is an additional on suite bathroom on the second room and a lanai on the 3 bedrooms downstairs. It was very comfortable and convenient as far as mostly everything a family needs are available especially in the kitchen. There are minor things that need to be updated. The refrigerator ice maker does not produce enough ice which is so badly needed in a hot, humid day. The lint filter on the clothes dryer needs to be cleaned after each renter leave and there’s some gouging on the wall in one of the bedrooms downstairs.. the shower glasses weren’t cleaned very well and couple of beach chairs are broken.
