You will be centrally located within the Mauna Lani Resort and its amenities. Stroll through historic lava fields to a private beach. Sip a refreshing drink and look over the clear blue water from reserved beachside lounge chairs and cabanas. Surrounded by golf courses, play world class golf at no extra effort. And so much more awaits!
Enjoy your private stay in a beautiful 1,460 square foot, second floor, three bedrooms, two bath condo that sleeps six. You will experience the best that the Palm Villas and Mauna Lani has to offer.
Have a Hawaiian style barbecue on your lanai (balcony) while taking in unparalleled views of Kalahuipua'a historical Park, and catch a peek of the ocean.
Sleep soundly on the king bed in the master bedroom with secluded views of the lava fields, and furnished with a new Smart TV. Have direct access to the lanai and a full sized bathroom with a nice deep tub and separate shower.
The guest bedroom features a comfortable queen bed, smart TV, and classic Hawaiian furnishings.
The loft contains two twin beds with a flat screen Roku® TV along with a couch for those who want a bright and sunny place to read and relax upstairs.
Don't feel like going out every night? No problem. Dine in and cook home-style meals in a full kitchen. Lounge with family and friends in a luxurious living room complete with tall ceilings, impressive views, and a flat-screen smart TV.
If you are visiting for the golf, we don't blame you. It truly is world class with some amazing views of its own! The Mauni Lani Resort boasts two championship golf courses, and the clubhouse is a short drive from your stay.
Splash in the pool or work out in the fitness center, both across the road from your front door. The tropical pool features a waterfall, providing a peaceful atmosphere. Relax poolside in one of many chaise lounge chairs. A large built-in spa (hot tub) can seat up to twelve. Entertaining friends and family at the Palm Villas is easy with a barbecue area located next to the pool. The fitness center is complete with weight room and workout equipment. Play tennis at the Racquet Club with six tennis courts, some lighted!
A short ten to fifteen-minute walk from your front gate at the Palm Villas takes you to Naoua at Manua Lani Beach Club. A premier restaurant and bar situated on a pristine white sand beach. This scenic walk will take you through Kalahuipua'a Lava Field Park, and then through the tranquil Manoku fish ponds. Be sure to keep a sharp eye out for actual historic petroglyphs while on your stroll to the beach!
Don't feel like walking? We've got you covered! Make use of the included private parking access card. Putting you right at the beach club's front door, only yards from the picture-perfect white sandy beach.
On the beach, you will find reserved lounge chairs and covered cabanas free for our Mauna Lani Palm Villa guests. In the water go snorkeling with bright and colorful fish in the clear warm tropical waters of Mauna Lani Hawaii! You will make many discoveries walking or jogging the paths and beach trials. Bring your camera, because here you will find views fit for any magazine sunrises, sunsets, exotic birds and sea-turtles resting on the sand, and many more picturesque scenes.
Before you head for the beach be sure to take a look in the garage. There you will find the gear you need for a beach day! Towels, fins, umbrellas, and Boogie Boards, all included in your stay with us. If that's not enough, you can always rent kayaks, paddleboards, and more right on the beach.
Be sure to take advantage of the local shopping and eateries at the nearby shopping mall at Mauna Lani Circle. There you will find a supermarket with everything you need to fill your full-sized fridge and freezer. A coffee shop featuring local Kona coffee and breakfast. An ice cream shop, and restaurants with American and International cuisines, stores, and art galleries. Keep an eye out for different free events often held at the mall, where you can find traditional Hawaiian dance and crafting fairs.
Make memories for years to come, and who knows this could be a new tradition.

The resort, condo complex, and unit were all fantastic. We had a wonderful visit with our family of four (two teenagers).

We loved our stay at Richard's Mauna Lani condo. The condo is perfectly located - we were a beautiful 15 min walk to the beach, 15 min walk or 3 min drive to FoodLand for reasonably-priced groceries, and with easy access to Kona, Waimea, and Waikoloa. All the amenities you could think of were provided, including beach towels, beach gear, a fully stocked kitchen, and extra sheets and towels. We had a wonderful week and can't wait to come back.
5.0
This is a great place to stay. The house is well accommodated in a beautiful area of the resort. Richard was very responsive before the stay and made it clear he was easily reachable if we had any issues…which we did not. The house and experience exceeded our expectations and we would definitely stay again.

Condo is wonderfully located in a quiet area with easy access to beaches, shopping, etc. having the pool right across the road is very convenient. Condo was well cleaned, stocked, and cared for. Richard is very responsive and accommodating.

My family and I enjoyed staying at this lovely Palm Villa property. Richard and Karee were very responsive to all of our questions and requests. The villa was clean and fully stocked with everything we needed. The property was a short walk to the ocean and the children enjoyed the historic information provided along the way to the beach. We hope to stay here again.
5.0
Great place, very quiet with amazing access to community pool and a short scenic walk to the beach. Richard was great to deal with and the condo was exactly as advertised. Great to have access to coolers, beach umbrella, beach chairs, snorkel gear, etc. There wasn't anything that we needed during our stay that wasn't provided in the unit.
Can't wait to come back!

Everything as advertised. Very clean well appointed and great location close to everything with beach club access.
5.0
our family (2 adults, 3 kids ages 10, 7 and 3) stayed here for the second week of our two-week family trip to Hawaii. the place was beautiful, clean and spacious, with every amenity we could have needed. 10min walk along a fascinating nature path to the nearest beach, although with a 3yo, driving ultimately proved easier.
the host, Richard, was thoughtful and responsive, even extending us a partial refund when the community pool had to temporarily close for maintenance.
the community was delightful, with cheerful neighbors and plenty of restaurants, a small grocery store, and a few retail shops within a couple minutes' drive, and of course the surrounding area is absolutely stunning, with a dozen gorgeous beaches all within a 10-15min car ride.
we'll be returning to the Big Island in the next few years, and this place will definitely be at the top of our short list. highly recommend.

We (3 generations ages almost 2-75) all enjoyed our week. The condo was very clean, comfortable, and quiet with nice appliances, including BBQ, and good central location. It was well equipped with kids toys and beach chairs, beach wagon, snorkels fins, boogie boards and umbrella. The walk to the beach was pleasant and fine with a stroller.
The pool was relaxing and not crowded. The best part was the pass to Mauna Lani Beach Club. It was fabulous for all ages- warm water, nice beach, good snorkeling and access to restaurant and restrooms. Some would go around 9 and get 2 Cabanas, and others would come after morning nap
For our stay early October, Cabanas and parking were no problem by 9 or after 1. We went to 3 of the big resorts for meals and loved the convenience of Palm Villas, and “our” beach.
We hope to return with our sons family too.
5.0
From gorgeous and original photography gracing the walls to the airy lanai to the comfortable furniture and well-stocked beach supplies, this condo was a beautiful haven with everything needed to relax and enjoy the island -including a wide selection of popular books for entertaining reads.
The home is lovingly cared for, with plenty of space to relax, and everything is in great working order, with helpful instructions where needed.
The upstairs loft offers a peek at the sunrise, the airy lanai is a lovely place to watch the sunset, and the open kitchen has plenty of room to cook while chatting with visitors. The kitchen also has good pots, pans, and plenty of flatware, cooking utensils, quality knives, etc.
We only needed the AC a couple of nights, and it was great, but we preferred the breeze when it was around. I loved opening the windows and listening to the breeze through the palms.
The complex pool is divine, and the beach at Makaiwa Bay (the beach club beach) is a beautiful walk through the lava field or short drive. The snorkeling is fantastic, and the waters are usually calm enough and the reef close enough that it makes for a great first (or fiftieth) snorkel experience.
The hosts are kind and very responsive, and I really appreciated the extra trouble that they went to in helping me adjust my arrival times and departure dates. Thank you, Richard, for sharing your beautiful home!

We have stayed at a number of places on the Big Island and this was by far our favorite. The condo had enough room to accommodate four adults and two children. What really made this condo stick out was the access to the Mauna Lani Beach Club and how kid friendly it was.
Every morning we would head over to the Beach Club where there was ample parking and numerous beach chairs. Once at the beach club you could play in the water or snorkel in the bay. In our opinion, this was some of the best snorkeling on the island, and the condo provided a number of snorkeling masks for use.
As discussed before, this condo is very kid friendly. They had plastic food trays, plastic cups, toddler forks, highchair, baby gate, and a pack-n-play. There were also numerous children's toys in the condo and sand toys for use at the beach. Luckily our kids were old enough that they were able to sleep in the two twin beds in the loft.
Beach toys for the adults included beach chairs you could wear on your back, boogie boards, pool noodles, ice chests (medium, and large), a beach umbrella, and a beach wagon.
The kids also loved the pool which was right across from the condo. It was great for kids since the depth was only around 4 feet and there was a waterfall that they can play under. It was a great place to go in the evening.
We tried to think of a negative thing to say but we were not able to think of anything. Would highly recommend it and look forward to returning again!

We loved the location and the access to Napua Beach. The house was perfect for our group of four adults and 2 children. The sunset views from the balcony were stunning and each night we walked over the the Mauna Lani pools to see the fish, eels, herons and cattle egret (including their nests with babies). Wonderful stay! Thank you for everything.
5.0
We had a great stay in this condo for our April spring break. It is clean, the beds are comfortable and it's very quiet. The kitchen is well stocked and the garage has all you need for the beach. You can access both the Mauna Lani Beach Club beach and the Mauni Lani resort by the beautiful path through the lava fields and fish ponds. The parking pass is useful to save time and energy and, as long as you get there early, there is plenty of parking and beach chair access. In our experience, the beach chairs filled up by 9:00 or 10am. The beach at the Mauna Lani Beach Club is calm, sandy, protected and has easy snorkeling with an abundance of fish.
The Mauna Lani area is a wonderful home base for checking out all the gorgeous beaches in the area. The Palm Villas neighborhood is landscaped beautifully and Foodland (which has excellent poke!) is just a minute away. Easy check in/out and very responsive host and owner.
Thanks for a wonderful time!

The unit was clean and spacious with the conveniences of home. I would definitely stay here again. The beach club was an added bonus.
5.0
My husband and I absolutely loved this apartment. Gorgeous natural light, perfect location for restaurants and bars, and super close to the lake and opera house.
The apartment kitchen was VERY well-equipped with everything you’d need to cook a meal or just enjoy your coffee and wine. The entire apartment was spotless, and we were also relieved to have a washer/dryer and detergent in the middle of a long trip.
The only thing I wished we’d had was a sofa or larger comfortable seating area, but that’s only because we ended up having a friend visit and would have liked all relax on a couch together instead of sitting around the dining table. Absolutely nothing to complain about though, just something to consider if you plan to have any guest join you during your stay.
We’d absolutely stay here again if returning to Zürich. The communication with the rental company was superb, and every question we had was answered very promptly. Lovely apartment in a lovely city!
5.0
Totally enjoyed our stay at Richard's Palm Villas condo. Very well stocked for a family, with toddler friendly items, including a high chair, travel crib and baby gate for the somewhat steep entry stairs. Quality kitchen appliances and dishes, etc. Lanai was wonderful for breakfasts and grilling. Loved the landscaping and the use of a parking pass for the Beach Club. Check out instructions were clear and not overly difficult.

This is the second time staying here and we always love our time at Richard and Karee’s place. The location is perfect with a nice walk to the beach, wonderful pool and hot tub, and easy access to the beach club. The condo is always clean and well stocked. We hope stay again in the future.

This was exactly what we were looking for. A home base for our vacation with all the amenities and necessities to make our stay perfect. This property will not disappoint.
We had 5 in our family with lots of space for all of us to feel comfortable. The pool and beach club are outstanding. A little grocery store down the road so you can cook in or grill on back deck.
We will be returning.

Perfect
Best condo we have stayed in on the big island. Loved the location. Walk through the fish ponds to the private beach was gorgeous. Snorkeling at the beach was excellent. Views from condo were fabulous. Condo was So comfortable and the little touches were excellent - night lights, labels on the light switches, laundry detergent, extra TP, play n pack, high chair, beach towels, beach chairs and boogie boards. Will be first on our list for future stays.

Great location!
This is such a great location! It is close to fun shopping, great restaurants with easy access to the airport and day trips to other locations on the Big Island. We love the pool at Palm Villas and this unit is as close as one can get. The walk to the beach was the perfect start to every day.

Had a wonderful stay here with our toddler! It was a perfect set up for us, with a spacious living area, pool less than 30 seconds walk, and we loved having access to the beach club. Both we and our daughter watching the birds while we ate. Had everything we needed, pack n play, high chair, a few toys etc. Thank you!

Great Condo! Great Neighborhood!
The condo is well stocked, well maintained and very comfortable. The hot tub in the pool area was fabulous. Bird watching from the deck while eating was enjoyed by all. The condo complex was quiet. We really liked the beautiful walk to the beach through the fish ponds.
The condo is every bit as good, if not better, than described.

Fantastic big island vacation spot
We loved our stay at this condo! It’s location is excellent and the Mauna Lani grounds are beautiful. The beach is a little bit of a walk but was easily doable with my 70 year old mom and 7 and 9 year old daughters. It’s really a great value when you consider the prices for properties closer to the beach. Within 10-15 minutes drive of at least 4 other fantastic sandy beaches (Hapuna, Mauna Kea, Beach 69, and A Bay). I should note that this is a quiet community and there are signs posted at the pool asking that you keep the noise level down, which can be a challenge with young kids who are excited to be on vacation. For that reason it may be more ideal for adults and older kids, and less ideal for younger kids and larger groups. Still, we and our kids loved the place and are likely to stay again!

Wonderful stay
This condo was well appointed with more than the standard amenities. Everything we could need was available. The interior was so nicely done with high end quality furnishings without being over the top. Your condo's location was great, with the pool across the drive and the solitude and beauty from the balcony and bedroom. We would highly recommend. Thanks for sharing your home with us!

Lovely Mauna Lani condo!
This VERY clean and comfortable home offered everything we needed and wanted. The kitchen was well-equipped, the master bed quite comfy, and the surrounding area was heaven! This location is lower key than Waikaloa, which we SO APPRECIATED, yet provides fantastic access to all the great spots. Thank you SO much for a wonderful home base! We will be back!!
