Lin was at the property when we arrived, and graciously showed us all the amenities. The unit was clean and comfortable, as well as, centrally located for the excursions that we planned. We would love to stay again! Mahalo!

We are leaving today after a four week stay, and we enjoyed the property very much. This is our second time in this condo, and we don't generally repeat. Lin is great to work with, the location is perfect, the development is the best in the Waikoloa area in our opinion, and the condo itself is very comfortable. We would definitely recommend this rental and plan to return ourselves someday soon. Thanks Lin!

The unit was a dated and could use a good cleaning. The living room furniture was worn out and uncomfortable. It was close to the beach and for the price it was acceptable.

We enjoyed the convenient location of this condo for exploring the Kohala Coast. The written instructions for finding it were very detailed and helpful and we appreciated being able to do laundry and borrow beach chairs. As others have noted, the owner left a generous platter of fruit. While this is an expensive area to stay in, our experience felt like a poor value. All the knives were dull, even for cutting a papaya; the fridge light was broken; there was no kettle for boiling water and just one kitchen towel. The toilet makes a loud, high pitched sound every time it gets flushes; the light in the shower is broken; and there are not enough towel bars or hooks for bath and hand towels. The sofa bed in the living room is very soft and saggy. There was no guide with any tips for what to do with the trash, where to buy groceries, etc. While the owner was responsive to specific questions, we had minimal communication with her. We had a much more positive experience in Kona for a fraction of the cost.

Condo was quiet, relaxing and comfortable, especially the bed. Host was friendly and helpful. The only con: the kitchen is old and the unit is in need of deep cleaning.

I was visiting friends but also needed a clean and comfortable space for working while visiting. The condo had good lighting, good internet, and was perfect for what I was looking for. The parking spot is right next to the building. The bed was comfortable. I would definitely stay here again. I was visiting friends so did not try the pool or facilities. I went every day to Island Vintage Coffee and bought myself either a bagel or egg sandwich and a yummy coconut coffee. Also, very convenient to the Kona Airport.

This little gem is well location near beaches(walk to A-bay or short drive to others). Well appointed kitchen and comfortable queen size bed. The trade winds were not blowing during our visit so we need to use the air conditioning while in the unit- it did get a little stuffy but overall comfortable. Lin provided shampoo, body wash, beach towels, boogie board, well used beach chairs, coolers, and snorkeling equipment. We had a wonderful time explore the area. Mahalo!!

Lin is the host of this lovely clean condo. She brought us fruit from her garden. The sweetest orange juice I have ever had! Had a wonderful time! I am always so sad to leave paradise.

This condo is great, and Lin is great too! Place is clean, and well supplied with all needed supplies and linens. Lin had a basket of local fruits waiting for us. Neighborhood is quiet and grounds are nicely kept. For a one bedroom this condo is very spacious. Bed was very comfortable, big refrigerator and nice balcony. Lin even touched base to make sure everything was okay. We were supposed to come last year and paid for the condo, but had to cancel just days before due to Covid, and Lin graciously offered to move the reservation to a time we could come. She could have just kept our money. That says a lot about Lin’s character! If we are in the area again we will definitely look into renting this condo again!

We very much enjoyed our stay at Lin’s. Lin is a very gracious host, providing us with fruit from her farm upon arrival. I’m a stickler for cleanliness, and her place was spotless. Everything we needed was provided: beach towels, beach umbrella, chairs, boogie board, snorkel gear, coolers (we only used the beach umbrella but it’s nice to know the other things were available). Great location and close to some of Big Island’s best white sand beaches. Highly recommend, and would definitely stay here again. Thank you Lin!

The Shores is a wonderful place to stay! It was quiet and peaceful. Dirt walking distance to stores and restaurants! Also, we really enjoyed easy access to all the beautiful golf courses but only in Waikoloa Village but also surrounding area. Will definitely book again!

We spent two weeks in May, 2022 at Lin Tottle’s condo at the Shores. The location of her unit was perfect for all the things we wanted to do on the Big Island. Three unique features of the place that we have not experienced in past VRBO rentals was 1) a huge bowl of fruit awaiting us when we arrived that was from Lin’s farm in Hawi; 2) an invitation to visit the farm which we took advantage of and came back with boxes of fruit and the rare ability to meet the owner of the VRBO. What a treat. 3) The cupboards were absolutely stocked with almost anything you could use. Thanks Lin for a wonderful time!

We very much enjoyed our stay. It’s a lovely, comfortable home-away-from home located in a beautiful gated community. Lin, the owner, greeted us upon arrival and familiarized us with the condo. She provided a large basket of fresh fruits and avocados fresh from her farm. What a treat! The bed is comfortable, the lanai is wonderful and the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. The condo itself is well stocked with items that made our stay stress free- beach chairs, beach towels, even laundry soap and fabric softener for the washer and dryer located within the condo. We cooked fresh fish one day and there was even dill for it located in the cupboard. The stay could not have been nicer, and we definitely want to come back!
