The previous reviews were spot on. We had a wonderful stay in a place that is not your typical VRBO in that you truly feel like a guest in someone's home. Tasteful artwork decorates the walls, and the property has well stocked books, games, dishes and condiments and other extras. A very thick binder outlines everything you need to know. Upscale appliances (ex, stove, coffee maker, etc) and just an all around classy property at a great price. Some nitty gritty comments:1) this place is NOT for messy people, partiers, or folks who don't care for a property. The property provides lots of extras with the understanding that you'll take care of it all.2) make sure and get your parking pass right away at the management office (you can do it off hours, but just do it).3) access to the Mauna Lani Beach Club is a huge plus and was the icing on the cake (a 5 min drive away). It has a nice restaurant and is a very exclusive club in a picturesque bay and was just spectacular.4) If you are comparing locations between Mauna Lani and Waikoloa Beach area, Mauna Lani is quieter, more upscale and just 10 minutes from Waikoloa area. I think Mauna Lani is classier with a grocery store, brewery, beach gear rental and other amenities that you need for a nice vacation.5) Nice breezy fans and good A/C upstairs make for a comfortable sleep. The downstairs master bedroom is massive and the upstairs is very comfortable, too, with even colder A/C. I ran out of characters but stay there!
Everything we could have asked for and more! This was the perfect location to cheer on my husband during the Ironman triathlon. Our two teens had their own beds to sleep in, my parents had their own room as well. The kitchen was fully stocked so we could prepare, cook or grill all of our food, and we enjoyed sitting outside each night watching the sunset. Having access to a pool and a private beach was amazing. The home was impeccably clean and Jan has thought of everything you could possibly need. If you have a family member participating in next year’s Ironman, this is the ideal location for proximity and comfort. We loved staying here. Highly recommend!
Had a wonderful time at Mauna Lani, stayed at the property for a week. Highly recommended.
An absolutely lovely home, perfectly appointed. The furniture was comfortable, the kitchen amazing. We grilled and cooked in most nights. It was surprisingly private and quiet for being in a sixplex, and the view was out back away from other units. Beautiful grounds, with a great pool, and we were a very short drive from anything we needed. There were lots of opportunities around for hikes, beach visits, and shopping. Thank you for hosting us!
We loved everything about this property! The location was perfect- tucked in at the back of the complex, facing the ocean (just beyond the golf course, but you know it’s there ;), in between the Fairmont and Auberge, so you can enjoy a drink or dinner easily at either breathtaking resort, and close to some of the best beaches on the island. Having a beach pass to the Mauna Lani Beach Club was a must! It was a gem of a beach and so perfect for little kids. The house was immaculate and fully stocked, which we so appreciated if you’re planning on doing some cooking. We really hope to stay here again. It had more than everything we needed for our Hawaiian dream vacation. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us, Jan!
This home is outstanding. It was truly the highlight of our trip on Big Island. With two kids, we pretty much stayed in one place, watercolor painting on the beautiful lanai, swimming in the resort pool, and enjoying meals at home. This home feels like your best friend invited you to their house and made sure you had everything you needed and more to feel at home. Jan, this is obviously a passion of yours! We couldn’t even find a speck of dirt in any forgotten corner. Plentiful supplies abounded, and we slept like angels on the beds. Garage had tons of extra gear for swimming snorkeling beach days and kids play.
We had a wonderful time at the villa. Everything was as stated in the VRBO listing We enjoyed the beautiful property grounds and private beach was such an added bonus very easy yo work remotely in the upstairs office That is set up very nicely the quiet of surrounding neighborhood was appreciated and kitchen had working appliances and plenty of dishes amd laundry room had great washer and dryer we definetly would love to stay again in future
Thank you for your hospitality
Our family had a wonderful second visit to this townhome. Great location, excellent facilities and pool, clean, well cared for and basics in the cupboard make everything easy breezy!
This is our second visit to Mauna Lani Fairways and first time in Jan’s condo and it was a truly exceptional property. There is true pride in ownership that is reflected in the quality of furniture, decor, linens, kitchen ware & beach gear. The owners thought of absolutely everything and were generous with amenities and starters such as coffee pods, Mac nuts and condiments. The private beach club is perfect with cabanas and chaise and great snorkeling. We personally love Hapuna and the Shave Ice truck and shops in Kawaihae. We will most certainly be back. Thank you so much for a wonderful spring break!
Great place. Enjoyed our stay. Would stay again. Quiet location. Nice view from lanai. Pool and spa good. Well stocked kitchen with everything you need. Maker short walk. Nice big unit.
This property had amenities and views of a 4-star hotel with all the comforts of home. Very well supplied. Jan and Michael thought of almost everything you can possibly need. Our family enjoyed our stay here.
