Condo very spacious, very clean, well equipped, and even ocean views, albeit slightly distant. Short walk to shopping. Only slight drawback is second floor without elevator for seniors like us. Otherwise, extremely satisfied and would definitely stay here again!
I rented three condos in this neighborhood. This one by far was the best condo for its price. The area was great and well-maintained. Very close to restaurants and shopping and very close to the beach.
Love The Shores, and this unit is great for a couple get away. Very quite area of Waikoloa Beach. Not really ocean front, but you do have a view from the lanai. Only comment would be access to buggy boards, bikes, and other sports gear. As stated not much in cooking supplies, but I think this has more to do with reaction to Covid, than stocking, so buy your salt and pepper. Hope this turns some VRBOers off so we can always get the unit.
the condo at The Shores has been great. Clean and comfortable. the toilet in the guest bathroom does run for no apparent reason. Other than that it has been a great stay.

This is our third visit to this particular unit. Its location is appealing to us as it is somewhat isolated from the busy areas of WBV. It’s a very spacious unit and always neat and clean when we arrive. We were very pleased with the updated bed. However the unit is dated and could use some upgrades. The toilet in the half bathroom needs maintenance and the freezer side of the refrigerator has limited access, due to the adjacent wall. It would be nice if beach chairs and an umbrella were available for use. Except for the steep rise in rental rates over the last few years we were generally happy with our stay. Thanks, Carl
This condo could be great. Nice location, very spacious, large lanai with really pleasing views over the golf course to the ocean in the distance, even a peak at Mauna Kea from the other side of the lanai. But the kitchen is not in great condition ( the cabinets are gross inside) and it is poorly outfitted for anyone hoping to do any cooking or even nicely serving a meal brought in. The only wine glasses are plastic and there aren’t many dishes, pots/pans or utensils; not to mention virtually nothing nice for serving or even decent placemats to use on the table on the lanai. Sadly, the decor is really lacking as well, very generic. We stayed in an identical unit several years ago and it was stunning. The pool & spa are nice, although they close on the early side. We had a good stay but this unit is nothing special.

The bed in the master bedroom needs to be replaced. The mattress is old enough to have a depression on left side. Very uncomfortable. My back ached after sleeping in this bed for 4 nights. The kitchen cookware unacceptable. Only two old teflon pot/pan for cooking. Unhealthy. Overall, furniture old; outdated. Location:Waikoloa: good, centrall to both souyh and north areas of the island
My husband and I stayed in the property for four nights. It is a large second-floor one bedroom condo with a lovely view. The pictures show the lava field that is adjacent to the condo, but they don't show the golf course that backs up to it and the view of the ocean in the distance. We watched the sunset from the balcony and it was really lovely. The lava field is quite small compared to the expansiveness of the view and that isn't visible in the pictures online. The community is quiet and restful.
The rental group (Maui Condo and Home) made the check-in and check-out process absolutely painless. They provided very detailed instructions via email that made it easy to find the unit even when arriving on a dark night.
My only suggestion would be to equip the kitchen a bit more. The knives were in poor condition and made it very difficult to cut a carrot or apple. There are no basics like salt/pepper/cooking oil provided. The bed and bedding were comfortable. The bathroom was large and easy-to-use.
I definitely recommend this condo!
