Property Description
Aloha!!
Why stay in a hotel when you can stay in a spacious, beautiful, comfortable and convenient golf-front condominium at the Fairway Villas at Waikoloa Beach Resort?
Our condominium home sleeps 6. It has 2 bedrooms, 2 full baths, plus a loft configured as follows:
Master bedroom - king bed
2nd bedroom - 2 twin beds
Loft - 2 twin beds
Our unit is very spacious with 1300 square feet of living space, plus a covered lanai which overlooks the Kings’ golf course and has an unobstructed view of the Kohala Mountains and Mauna Kea volcano. Our unit is quiet, as it is located on the third (top) floor, yet is easily accessible via elevator or stairs. Vaulted ceilings lend a feeling of openness and light. Beautiful bamboo hardwood flooring feels cool and smooth under your feet. There is central air-conditioning, and there are ceiling fans in each room and the loft for those tropical Hawaiian days.
Staying in our condo is a convenient alternative to staying in a hotel. You can save money by cooking at home, as little or as much as you wish (There is a Costco within 20 minutes drive). The kitchen is fully equipped! It has a smooth-top range, stainless microwave, refrigerator with in-door ice/filtered water, and dishwasher.
A full-size stacking washer/dryer is also located within the unit for your convenience.
Cable TV (living room), Wi-Fi Internet, local and (nationwide + Canada) long distance phone calls are all included. We have flat screen TV's in each room, plus loft. There is also a Bluetooth speaker in the living room. There is an (original) Wii system in the living room with some games.

Our unit features dramatic mountain views of the Kohala Mountains, as well as Mauna Kea.

We had an amazing family vacation to the Big Island and enjoyed our condo as per usual. We’ve rented at the Fairway Villas many times and you can’t beat the location. The condo was well equipped and very quiet.Communication with the owner was easy and the check in process was seamless. We would absolutely stay here again. Thanks for the great stay!

We came to Fairway Villa’s second time. This tine for Ironman race. Like first time, location is perfect for us. Close by beaches and services and within driving distance to Kona. This Villa type easily accommodates our family of five. Six persons would fit in well.

We booked quiet, comfortably spacious and conveniently located condo because we were going to a wedding with 80 other people in Puako and wanted to be close to the wedding and the other guests, staying nearby.
The check-in was easy. We actually got to the place early and everything was ready. We were able to get the temperature to a good state very quickly and enjoy Hawaii.
The condo has loads of things like beach chairs and umbrellas, boogie boards and other toys for the beach.
The kitchen had lots of condiments so we didn't have to buy a lot of extras that end up going to waste.
For location, it is only a few minute walk to Queens and Kings Markets which was great for morning walks.
Thanks for the lovely stay.

Every morning was a burst of excitement for the day as we drank our coffee on the balcony soaking up the most beautiful sunrises breaking through the clouds alongside Mauna Kea overlooking the beautiful green golf course.
This condo is equipped with all the amenities of being home and on vacation, so much we didn't want to leave. There was plenty of room for my 2 older children, husband and parents.
Geoffrey has put a lot of thought into the decorating of the condo to make it feel like paradise. It embodies all things Hawaiian, from the paintings, furnishings, right down to the bedspreads.
Thank you for opening your condo to enjoy our vacation!
Location: 10 min walk or 3 min drive to the beach. There you can rent a paddleboard or jump on a glassbottom tour or just enjoy the beautiful serene beach (or even sunsets). Plenty of sea life, we saw a manta ray swim by, fish and a turtle relaxing on the sand.
Also a 5 min walk from the condo is amazing shaved ice, delicious coffee shops (even a Starbucks, but Island Vintage Coffee was delicious) and acai bowls, as well as a general market for immediate needs.
A 25 min drive into Kona you have costco, walmart, target, all the big names.
A 10 min drive toward Waikoloa Village toward 49 Black Sand Beach, you'll find Manuelas Malasadas (some of the best we had!)
A short drive to Mountain Thunder Coffee in what is considered Cloud Forest.
Overall, if we ever revisit Big aisland, this place would be our pick time and time again!

Apartment was clean, spacious, and had everything we needed. Location was very close to markets and beach. The patio had great views of mauna kea in the morning, and if you get lucky on a clear night you can see a good bit of stars. One note was that the wifi was spotty which made it difficult to work, but otherwise we had a fantastic stay.

Easy walk to shops, restaurants, and beach. Loved being entertained watching the golfers from the lanai. Kitchen has all appliances and tools needed for meal and drink prep. Used the air conditioning the first evening just to get the condo cooled off, but the breezes were perfect the rest of the time.

If you chose to rent this property, I’d recommend documenting some video and photo evidence of the place at check in. We had a nice stay but after we got home we were charged hundreds of dollars for a damaged cooktop. We used the cooktop one time to warm up frozen vegetables. The irony of the situation was that because of flight delays and rescheduling, we were actually only in the unit 4 out of the 7 days we had it rented. When you add in the charges after we got home, it ended up being a VERY expensive 4 day stay. We had no recourse other than to pay the charge because we had nothing to prove we didn’t cause the damage. Fairway Villas is lovely and we’ve rented atleast 5-6 units here over the years and will be back in the future. We will chose another option next time.

Nice condo in prime location with a beautiful view of golf course and mountains. Needs some minor repairs which didn't affect our stay at all. Gym and pool were great, and walking distance to shops, groceries and restaurants was a plus!

On arrival, we discovered the AC was set at 88 degrees with window blinds left open. Outside temperature was about 90 degrees. Condo felt like a sweat lodge and was not fit for habitation.
We didn’t know how to adjust the temperature setting on the AC. It was a Nest thermostat we knew the owner could control remotely. I called the owner and left an urgent message. I also called the VRBO help desk. They tried but could not help. They left messages for the owner via text and phone.
3 hours later, I received a cryptic text from the owner. I called the owner who complained he had multiple messages from VRBO. He had not listened to my voicemail. I explained the situation.
The owner did not express concern or regret. He was concerned with how expensive his electric bills were and the difficulty of managing a vacation rental. He was not responsible for setting the thermostat or for his cleaning crew’s actions! He did not feel it necessary to check the AC setting before a new guest arrived. There was no concern for our comfort. The owner was condescending, patronizing and insulting. Eventually, I told him he was not helpful and hung up.
Through trial and error, I changed the temperature setting. After reducing it to 74 degrees it took 10 hours to cool down. Our first day and night were a dreadful experience.
The owner doesn’t understand property management or customer service. If VRBO continues this property listing, they should require local property management by professionals.
