About this house rental

Honu House, your Hawaiian retreat in KaMilo at Mauna Lani Resort — one of the best places on the Kohala Coast to spend your vacation.

Enter this Makani floor plan, and enjoy a fabulous panoramic view as the Kohala Mountains peel down from the sky and into the ocean to the north, with Maui in the distance. Now you know you have reached your home away from home.

On the main floor you will find an open floor-plan, kitchen, living-room, dining area, powder room and one of the guest bedrooms with ensuite bathroom. Open up the large pocket door to the outside lanai and enjoy the indoor-outdoor living style that we are so famous for on the islands.

The kitchen is exceptionally equipped with chef quality equipment and table settings for 12. The living area, just off of the kitchen boasts a 60” wall mounted 4K TV. The dining table accommodates eight comfortably with four additional seats at the oversized kitchen island. In the evening cook up some fresh catch on the "Lynx" gas grill and enjoy your dinner outside when the air is just right.

Towards the back portion of the upstairs you will find a small office nook, powder-room and then a generously sized guest bedroom with its own full sized bathroom, large closet and wall mounted 4K TV.

Heading downstairs and to the back we start with another large guest bedroom boasting two queen sized beds and a large walk-in closet, and another wall mounted 4K TV. This room even opens up onto a large downstairs lanai perfect for having a nice quiet cup of coffee in the morning. Just outside of this room is your detached guest bathroom, tiled, with elegant vanity and a tub-shower.

Also downstairs is the smaller guest bedroom with closet, currently decorated as a sitting-room with wall mounted 50” HD TV. The queen size couch folds out to make even more room to sleep if your group requires the space.

The master bedroom takes the cake of course, featuring a king-sized bed, wall mounted 4K TV and elegant en suite with travertine floor, glass and travertine shower, a double vanity and separate soaking tub. Whomever needs the most relaxing, peace and quiet gets the master bedroom!

Downstairs you will also find a full sized washer and dryer for all of your laundry needs. Detergent provided.

Condo is fully equipped with baby equipment, including two “pack and play” cribs, two baby gates, bed rails, and a high chair.

There is a two-car garage provides storage for all of the beach toys, chairs and umbrellas, boogie boards, putting-green gear, two OHM bikes, and a four-seater electric GEM. You will have one space inside and two parking spaces outside if needed.

We loved this home and location. The e-bikes and golf cart were soo helpful to have. Easy check in check out. The only thing was the bbq was not working properly and we had to pivot last minute with our bbq steak dinner plans. Would definitely stay here again.

This was our second stay at Kamilo 423, and it was just as good as our first. Kai is quick to respond and always helpful. Property is well equipped with everything you should need. Golf cart is great for getting to the beach or pool. E-assist bikes are a very nice addition. No complaints.

We had a multigenerational group of 7. This home was perfect! The kitchen is well stocked (kitchenware and cooking staples), the rooms are spacious, the home location in the complex is convenient to the pool (lovely!), the area is walkable but we sure enjoyed the golf cart and e-bikes! The garage also comes stocked with beach gear - boogie boards, snorkle gear, beach chairs, etc. I would love to stay here again!

This house delivered everything it promised. We were a multi-generational family of 8 and this was an ideal setup. Lovely, well-equipped kitchen and spacious bedrooms. Close to everything -- Hapuna Beach, shops, restaurants, pools and exercise area, Kona, Waimea, etc. Golf cart and e-bikes got a lot of use. We would definitely return!

The house is lovely. The kitchen really is a cooks dream and the whole main floor is a great gathering space for food and games. The Lanai was also really enjoyed but it is on the small size for 6-8 guests if all are out there together. Also, it is a neighborhood so it was noisy at times but also fun to see other families. The 4th "guest room" has a pull out sofa that is very uncomfortable for any adult. We padded the mattress with padding from the portable crib that we didn't need to use and also added a few blankets on top of that but it still wasn't very comfortable for our adult daughter ( she didn't complain but we laid on the mattress and knew the truth). So if that is going to be used for a young child it might be okay but don't really count it as a 4th bedroom. The main bedroom was roomy and the bathroom was large but mold on the tiles. We didn't have use of the 2nd bike until a few days before we left as it didn't arrive until then but there are 2 e-bikes now that were great for fun rides and quick errands. Golf cart was useful and fun!! My biggest word of caution was to be aware that the beach access is over 3 miles away. That means you have to pack up everyone headed there, park, unload and be coordinated. The Mani Lani beach area is pretty and sandy but relatively small for the number of people using that space. Not great snorkeling. You can walk the Fisherman's trail and find other coves that were stunning but another added distance and not easy for children ( we didn't have any but even us adults needed water shoes and had to navigate the coves carefully). There is a walkway near the Fairmont Orchid that takes you onto Fisherman's trail but it too is about a mile and lots of the trail is lava rock and coral. It is a beautiful walk but if you want to plop down on a sandy beach this isn't the place you are looking to stay. Great beach chairs and pool noodles in the garage. Overall it was a nice stay but not quite what we expected for the price. Read the fine print and ask questions.

We truly enjoyed our stay at Honu House! The house was very comfortable and a great location for a wide variety of activities around the island. We especially enjoyed the kitchen and lanai for chill time and early morning coffee! Highly recommend.

Everything you need and more! Love how everything was labeled throughout the unit and there were extras of everything (towels, etc). Great stay and look forward to staying here again!

The house was very well stocked with a wonderful kitchen and enough space for a large group to connect easily. The location was close to the pool and not far from the other resort amenities. The electric car was used every day and we really enjoyed it. I highly recommend this property for extended family gatherings.
