Absolutely wonderful condo, with amenities not found elsewhere, great workout area and pool. Definitely not for families with active kids who might be a bit loud. Kitchen well stocked and lanai perfect. The check in instructions are way too confusing and could be made much more simple (BTW happy to help!).We will be back.

The condo was beautiful and spacious. The community with nice and quiet. It seemed to be mostly older folks. This unit is upstairs, so we had to be extra careful to be quiet enough, which is tough with 3 young kids. We had a lovely stay!

The condo was well located in the Mauni Lani resort area. However, there was confusing information sent to us about where to park, the entry stairs were dirty, the lanai was very dark with surrounding foliage, the sofas were too low for us to sit on them (and get up) comfortably, the air conditioning controls were difficult to reach with a piece of decorative furniture in front of them. The master bedroom closet was small and the shower in the master bath had a pebble floor that was VERY uncomfortable to stand on - and no rubber mat to help. There was no tea kettle for our morning tea and we don’t drink coffee in the morning.The unit offered a number of amenities like dishwashing and clothes washing pods, etc. It would probably be fine for a lot of people, just not a good fit for us.

Central location near tennis center and a short walk to the beach. We have stayed at this complex 5 times, and are always happy. This condo has everything, complete kitchen, barbecue, garage full of beach items, and a pass to the beautiful beach nearby. The kitchen has everything we needed, and the condo was clean. It is comfortable and spacious as well.

Myself, husband, and 2 teens enjoyed our stay. The teens were happy to each have their own sleeping area. The kitchen was great for making breakfast each morning. It was well stocked with dishes, pots & pans, spices, etc. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub area after long days sightseeing, hiking, and at the beach. The quiet pool area is very relaxing. We did not go to the resort beach, there are a few other really nice beaches close by that we choose to go to so the beach chairs, umbrella, towels, and snorkeling equipment that were provided were a really nice option for us.

Aside from being too short, our stay at Palm Villas B23 was perfect in every way! The unit was immaculate, quiet, comfortable, and one of the best equipped vacation rentals we’ve had. We especially loved having all the beach gear (towels, chairs, umbrella, snorkeling equipment, and boogie boards) right in the garage ready for us.
Palm Villas location is ideal, within easy walking distance of the shops and restaurants, and a pleasant 15-minute walk from the beach club. We used the pool and hot tub two afternoons; both were well maintained and uncrowded. The next door neighbor and her little dog were kind and welcoming, and the rental was even more spacious than it appears in photos.
Mahalo, and hopefully we will be lucky enough to return for another stay someday!

The condo’s location in Palm Villas is excellent, close to tennis, and the unit has lovely views of foliage and the pool. It was quiet and comfortably sleeps 6. We really appreciated the beach gear for guest use in the garage and loved spending time at the beach club. I would give 4.5 stars overall if I could. We had issues with some of the appliances not working properly including washer/dryer, and while it sleeps 6, the 2 tables each had 4 chairs. Kitchen has the basics. Parking is oddly in the unit next door. Property management was responsive, which we appreciated.

This condo is in a great location. We had everything we needed to cook and it was very easy to get to everything around the island. We used the private beach access one day, but there are so many beautiful beaches nearby that we ended up visiting a different beach every morning. Overall, we were very happy with the condo and the location and the hosts were very quick to respond to any questions.
My only suggestion would be to add a day bed in the upstairs loft. There is plenty of space for it.

The condo provided a restful and beautiful stay at Mauna Lani. This lovingly-cared for and sparking clean unit has a captivating view to Mauna Kea from the loft, super comfy furniture, and is thoughtfully surrounded by lush greenery that affords a sense of privacy between the unit and the pool across the lawn. The greenery, including a divine plumeria, and orientation also keep the house cooler. This time of year, the tradewinds provided most of the air conditioning needed.
The kitchen has a good assortment of tools with plenty of working space, and the lanai bar appointments in addition a beautiful looking grill that I failed to take advantage of. The loft has a bed and a nicely-sized desk, which provided a work area with a gorgeous view.
It's just a 20-25 min walk to the beach at Makaiwa Bay, and the tennis courts and fitness center are a 2 minute walk.
All the communication from the owners and management was timely and helpful. Thank you for a relaxing and productive stay!

We love Palm Villas because the property is beautiful, quiet close to the beaches and many restaurant choices. B23 is as described in the listing...pretty much everything you need for your stay. The master bedroom and bath are lovely, great king bed, plenty of hot water for your shower or bath. Lot of spices, condiments and kitchen accessories if you care to cook. We met the nice lady downstairs who "thanked" us for being so quiet. We told her that we appreciated her efforts in asking "boisterous" people to keep down the noise. We highly recommend Building B for anyone who enjoys a peaceful place when coming back home after a sun filled day!
