The place is perfectly equipped and decorated. It really couldn't get any better. We LOVED it!

The unit was spacious and very well equipped not just with the basics but with many other convenience items. The garage had bikes and beach gear, all perfecting organized. We had a couple minor issues and the management responded very quickly to address them. We will be returning.

Very quiet home with the beauty of Hawaii. Have had the pleasure to stay in the Villa's for many years. Always very clean, amenities are fully supplied. Wayne has been so helpful with accommodating any requests over the years.

Beautiful location and home as advertised. Great amenities, especially enjoyed the beach club. We were 3 couples-lots of space for everyone. Thanks!

Don't be fooled this is more than a nice place to live. The kitchen is better stocked than mine at home. The garage had 4 bikes to use, a tire pup - manual and one that plugs into car, 6 beach chairs, a beach umbrella, snorkel gear - kids sizes too!, boogie boards, paddle boards, paddles, beach toys! WOW that was unexpected and so useful. Plus, you get to use a private beach with lots to do - you can walk/bike there. A black sand beach is a bike ride away! We were traveling with 2 grown children and this place allowed each of us to spread out and have our own rooms and bathrooms. A central pool and a gym was very well maintained. The only thing this place lacked was a private backyard. The community is a private, gated community that was about 50% full - so plenty of privacy. Costco is about 40 min away but a well stocked grocery store is near by. So happy with our vacation.

it was fantastic, loved the condo easy access tot he beaches, pool was wonderful

Great communication with Wayne for last minute booking, perfect location with great amenities, the most comfortable couches and pillows in bed, and everything well kept and clean! Cooking pans and pots were awesome quality and breakfast at home really felt nice, especially when eating out at the lanai. Cool breezes and beautiful view!

We stayed here for 1 week in January and decided part way through to extend for another 3 days. The house is as advertised - spacious for our group of 6 (could have easily housed 8 with our 2 small kids). The house has everything one might need - including beach stuff (snorkels, paddleboards, boogie boards, etc.), baby stuff (pack and play), laundry, etc. The house is best described as comfortable - we really enjoyed hanging out on the back porch every evening. Due to covid, the neighborhood was very quiet- maybe 20% of units were occupied. The only issue we had was with the pool. We arrived Jan 1 and that weekend was reasonably busy with holiday travelers. The pool reservation system (limited to 1 hour each day, no more than 8 people at the pool at any time) was cumbersome and overly restrictive, especially compared to everywhere else we went that had very reasonable policies for limiting crowds. The pool at the complex, is large, could easily be cut into sections that would allow small groups. But instead, they chose to be far more restrictive than anywhere else we went to in Hawaii. Of course, after the crowds subsided, this was no longer an issue, but if you're planning to go to Hawaii on a holiday weekend, this could be an issue if you want to use the pool.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! We were a party of 5 adults. The unit is located on the Mauna Lani golf course. It was very clean and well maintained. Sleeping accommodations were spacious and comfortable. The kitchen had tons of supplies for cooking which was greatly appreciated. Nice outdoor patio with built-in barbecue. There was lots of room for everyone, having the loft with the couch/desk area upstairs and chaise lounge reading area on the main floor definitely helps. The resort property was well maintained. The pool, hot tub and workout room were right across the street from us - would be nice if the workout room was larger. There is a small shopping center (grocery, coffee shop, smoothies, restaurants, shopping) close to the resort which is very handy. The Mauna Lani Beach Club has a great beach, cabanas and chairs are available for resort guests. The water was perfect for swimming, snorkeling and paddle boarding. The unit is very well equipped with paddle boards, surf boards, snorkel gear, boogies boards, beach chairs, towels, cruiser bikes and more. It is walkable to other resort beach areas or go for a longer stroll down to Waikoloa. We had one issue with the front entry keypad - Wayne was very responsive and had it repaired the next day. We would recommend this Villa!

Thank you so much for the use of your villa. Our family really enjoyed our visit!

We spent 10 nights in this place late March 2019, we were a two family party with four adults and three kids aged 7, 4 and 1. There was plenty of space and privacy for everyone.We never met with the owner/manager during our stay but check-in instructions were easy to follow and everything we needed to know about the property was provided.We've stayed on the island a few times before and this was one of the nicest place we've stayed in. The unit is furnished incredibly well with comfortable furniture and beds, it was nice to stay in a place that had something other than wicker. There was plenty of beach amenities including snorkel gear (flippers and masks), beach chairs, beach umbrella, beach towels, cooler, stand-up paddle boards, there were also three bicycles. Inside the unit the amenities were equally abundant with everything required to make a great home cooked meal, including fully functional appliances and newer pots and pans. Travelling with a baby was easy at this place with pack and play cribs (two) and a feeding chair that attaches to the table chair. The house is equipped with AC as well as ceiling fans in each bedroom which made for comfortably cool sleeping.While the house was clean I can't say it was spotless. In the bathrooms there was considerable water staining on all the glass shower surfaces. We enjoyed our stay and I would recommend this property to anyone looking for a 3 bedroom place in the Waikoloa area of the big island.

Golf Villas (G2) is a great family location that is stocked with everything you need for a beach vacation on the big island. My kids loved the bikes, boogie boards and snorkel gear. Great snorkel beach close by and the pool is right across from G2 villa. Wayne the owner responds quickly and is very thoughtful. My family hopes to go back one day and I would highly recomend this villa. I normally dont write reviews but for G2 Villa I thought I should.

My family absolutely loves this condo! The unit has everything one could need and is beautifully decorated. It is in a prime location within the complex, which has one of the best communal pool designs I have ever seen. I highly recommend zip lining at Botanical World on the Hamuku Coast! The Forbes Family generously shares all the bikes, surfboards, chairs, umbrellas, etc in the garage (although the nearby private beach club is my favorite). Kona Sunsets Vacation Rentals is very professional and it feels like walking into your own home. Thank you Wayne & The Forbes Family for another fantastic vacation!

We really enjoyed the condo. It is large, extremely well furnished, clean, and has many beach accessories

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! We were a party of 8, 1 couple, 3 teens, 3 other adults. Sleeping accommodations were very good and comfortable. The kitchen had tons of supplies for cooking, which we did every day. Everything is really accessible and in great condition. We had to use the bar and outdoor seating for mealtime, but it was no problem. Plenty of space for everyone to sit, relax, watch tv or whatever inside and outside. The house was very clean, well maintained and very pleasant to be in. We all felt right at home. The resort was super quiet, we barely saw other people. We couldn't hear any outside noise from inside the house. The pool, hot tub and workout room were right across the street from us. All of which were very nice. We did checkout the main resort rec area (lap pool, tennis courts, lg workout room, fitness classes) but it was a bit of a drive and cost extra. There is a small shopping center (grocery, coffee shop, smoothies, restaurants, shopping) on the resort which we utilized multiple times and it was great to have it so close! We loved the beach resort probably best of all. Cabanas and chairs available for resort guests. The water was perfect for swimming, floating, snorkeling, paddle boarding, whatever you felt like. Even had a place to rent gear on the beach. The beach was clean and the water was crystal clear. The house provided paddle boards, surf boards, snorkel gear (although there were only 3), boogies boards, beach chairs, towels, beach toys, coolers, backpack, bikes and more. You can walk the beach down for a long way to other resorts, we did this and saw several sea turtles and other ocean creatures. The maintenance guy, Pete, was very nice and other than the wi-fi, quickly fixed the minor issues we had. Wayne was very responsive via phone, but not so much on email. We all agree we would stay here again! Loved it! Thank you for sharing your house!!

We were very pleased with all aspects of the condo. It is in a beautiful location with sweeping views of the golf course, mountains, and sunsets. With 3 bedrooms and three baths it worked out very well for my wife and I and our adult children. The condo is very well furnished and includes many items to use at the beach. Wayne, the property manager was very easy to work with and responded immediately to any correspondence we had. Our best recommendation is that we are returning next year to stay in the same unit.

It was a wonderful experience from beginning to end. The property was clean and well-maintained. There were 5 of us in the 3 bedroom condo and we all had plenty of room! It was great to have 3 bedrooms as well. The pool and hot tub were right across the street and the fitness room had everything we needed. Access to the Beach Club was easy too. I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a family Hawaiian getaway!

This condo was beautiful and in great condition. It feels like an upscale hotel. The whole resort is gorgeous. You have to drive to the beach area, but it's not far and we were able to see sea turtles as we snorkeled. The pool is right across the road from the condo and it is super nice. The grocery store at the resort is nice and the prices are no higher than other grocery stores on the island. Wayne was so nice to work with. We liked this place so much my husband keeps talking about buying a place here!

I took my daughter and 6 of her BFF's to Hawaii for a graduation present. I was so pleased with the size of the condo. All the bedrooms were a good size. The bathrooms were new and clean. The decor was lovely and the furniture was very comfortable. 8 of us in the condo for 8 days and I could have stayed longer. Wonderful accomodations

Wayne was on top of everything! The Condo was big and beautiful and very clean. The location was great and we were very comfortable here! Top Notch :)

My family and I just returned from an amazing and relaxing stay at the Forbes' Golf Villa at Mauna Lani Resort on the Big island of Hawaii. The Mauna Lani is a fantastic resort with every amenity. The Golf Villas are in a convenient location and offer the privacy of having your own home rather than staying in a hotel. This particular villa is perfectly located across from the pool and is outfitted with every amenity. From the beach and pool toys in the garage to the beautifully decorated three bedroom and baths, no detail is left wanting. I will definitely stay here again and recommend renting this villa to anyone looking to stay on the Kohala Coast but prefers a kitchen,BBQ,w/d to room service!

We had a very nice 5 night stay at Golf Villas. The condo was spacious, clean and well equipped. Great location across the street from nice pool, hot tub and small gym. It was a 2 minute car ride to the Mauna Lani beach club which is a nice calm cove for kids, also good for snorkeling right off shore. We were very pleased and would stay there again. Good value too.

Our entire family spent 8 fabulous days at Golf Villas in a lovely and beautifully outfitted home. There was every amenity possible, including snorkels, paddle boards, and children's sand toys, as well as a accommodations (like crib and high chair) for our grandchild! We had a blissful time being all together in this spacious, well-cared for, and obviously well-loved home, and will be sure to make another trip soon!

I had stayed at the Mauna Lani resort itself twice but was coming with 6 family members and found this economical vacation rental on the Mauna Lani golf course. My expectations were beyond exceeded. Still got to enjoy the amazing Mauna Lani pool, poolside bar, and Beach Club (you must snorkel there). The Villas were pretty chill and we only saw a few other parties while we were there. Amazing flora and fauna and your own pool and jacuzzi right across the street. Immaculate and spacious property outfitted with everything you need and I would stay again in a heartbeat.

This is a beautifully decorated villa complete with every amenity and conveniently located within the Mauna Lani property. My family absolutely LOVES vacationing in Kona and I prefer this villa over properties (like the Mauna Lani Point or hotel itself) because its larger and has nicer amenities. If you prefer condos/houses to hotels, this rental is the way to go!!

We had a terrific experience with this property. The location was out of the main traffic flow with great golf course and mountain views. The furnishings were good and the kitchen was well equipped. The rental agency was quick to respond to some minor needs when we first arrived. About the only negative was the beach equipment. We had only 4 inexpensive beach chairs which were low to the ground and difficult to get in and out of. There was also no beach umbrella and only one small, soft sided cooler available.

My family and I had an amazing time at this unit in the Golf Villas at Mauna Lani. The pictures don't do the property justice. It is a wonderful home with plenty of space for the whole family. We had a great time and will definitely be coming back in the future.

Pros & Cons: Condo not so clean: soiled carpets & walls; windows & shower doors not clean. Obvious cleaning items that should have been addressed. Having said that, when I called the property manager the house cleaners returned and made property adequate in terms of cleanliness. Extremely nice location & condo layout. Good amenities. Outstanding property manager who could not have nicer or more responsive. And, when I fell ill with the flue, they assisted me in finding a doctor, which was very much appreciated. I would absolutely return if I were assured the condo would be spiffed up in terms of the things noted.

everything worked well at the home. The deco in the house is very tasteful.

I reacently stayed at one of the Mauna Lani Golf Villas. The landscaping and beautiful flowers around the grounds were very inviting and beautiful. The condo was very clean and well put together. There was absolutely everything you need inside the condo to make you feel right at home and have a very pleasant experience. The kitchen and barbeque was fully stocked with everything you could possible need to put together any type of meal. There was a TV in every room with top of the line comfortable beds. I would recommend this condo to any person who wants a first class, comfortable Hawaiian vacation.

This rental is perfectly located on the big island and in a very exclusive development. It is very quiet and close to a private beach for area home owners. We didn't use the pool facilities but it was beautifully designed and very private.

The condo surpassed our expectations in every way. The bedrooms and living areas are large and beautifully decorated. The kitchen was huge and had everything you need for cooking and was augmented by a very upscale bbq and cooking area in the patio. Everything from first rate bath towels and bed linens to beach towels and toys are available to renters.

Finally, the condo is managed by a very professional vacation service so the reservation process and check in were smooth and pleasant. They also helped us resolve a problem with the AC quickly.

Everything about this place is first rate. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.
