We loved the property as it was easy to find and lovely location. Views and sunsets were amazing and made us feel humbled to be in this location. Even when it rained we were able to sit on the upper deck and take in the sights and sounds. Lots of birds singing at night and we would laugh at the clapping palm tree. We will be back.

Good stay overall. It seems like furniture, especially the couch needs some cleaning, as you can see stains on the edges. The bedsheets did not look like they were washed between visits. Everything else looked clean. The house does get really hot during the day, extending into the night, and the fans are not enough, but this is clearly stated in the description.

Property was wonderful with an excellent view and everything we needed. Pool was so nice. Neighborhood was quiet. In & Out process was straight forward and simple.

8 family members stayed at the property and we all really enjoyed it. Some reviews stated that the layout was odd but we didn’t get that feeling. Each room has a bathroom (one room has only an outdoor shower and an indoor tub) so we really liked that feature. One thing we noticed was that the QR code (on the door) and departure email I was sent differed in requirements when leaving the property. I didn’t notice the QR code until we were loading the car so we were unable to strip the beds as it said in the QR code. The email for departure didn’t mention it. So, making sure both the QR code and email match would help guests in the future. We had a really good time at this house. We’d stay again.

The house was very clean and spacious - good for a big family or two families. Well appointed kitchen. Deck and pool area were great. Loved the outdoor shower. There are no stores/restaurants within walking distance, but the house isn't a far drive from town.

Lovely common areas, pool and ocean view. Enjoyed our stay!

This property would be perfect for a winter trip to the big island. Our mid-October visit was quite humid and one of our family members was not happy that there wasn’t air conditioning. The rest of us were fine without, especially since we could cool off in the pool. The only negatives were there were only two beach towels (we asked for more and got something akin to beach towels) and the fact that in order to get to the pool, you have to walk through either bedroom or walk out the front and down the stairs to the back. And some stepping stones over the lava rocks would be preferable from the second downstairs bedroom. The sun does beat down on the back portion of the house and heats it up but it offers great sunsets.

We loved every thing

This house was big enough for my whole family. It was so relaxing and a great home while we were in Hawaii.

The kids love the pool and the mango tree very spacious and clean and comfortable. Easy access to downtown, grocery shopping and local restaurants

We loved our stay at this house. The house was clean, spacious, and just as advertised. The kitchen was well-equipped with complimentary water and coffee. The beds and furniture were comfortable. There were beach supplies available for a day at the beach. The outdoor deck and unobstructed views of the water were made for morning coffee and meals. We were concerned about there not being air conditioning, but it was not needed even on warm days. We were sad to leave and definitely would come back.

This property did not disappoint. We had plenty of room. Everything we could have needed was located at the property. We ate most of our meals in. Kitchen was a great place to cook and be together as family. The view was amazing. You can't just get that view anywhere. The Lani is very large, and the ocean view is in breath taking. The pool was a bit chilly, but we still used it. Amazing home. Stacey

We booked this house for Thanksgiving week to spend with family since we all live far apart. The house was big enough for all 8 of us with plenty of extra room. Overall great house.

Zero complaints... it was perfect the house has everything you need! It’s a beautiful house and most beautiful view of the sunset.

We had a great visit to Holualoa! The property was just as described in the listing and previous reviews. Check in was easy with a code on the door, and we found the house to be comfortable and well-appointed. PROS: * The view - as pictured, sweeping ocean views from the decks, the pool, and several rooms inside the house * The location - easy to get to downtown Kailua, with lots of restaurants & grocery stores and fairly central to all the other places we wanted to visit on the island. * The space - plenty of room for our family of 5 to spread out * The beds - we all slept very comfortably. The master bedroom mattress was maybe the most comfortable I’ve had at a rental home! * The garage - full use of the garage and garage door opener was a huge plus THE CONS * No air conditioning - this is as advertised, and we were comfortable most of the time, but did have a couple of days and nights that were warm and humid. The many fans were a big help, though. * Master bath layout - The master bath is large with a big shower, two sinks, and a separate toilet area with a door, but privacy is lacking. The space is wide open to the master bedroom, and there’s a window into another room. That window has a shade, but it isn’t a blackout shade, so privacy is limited. * Other layout issues - the lower level bedrooms are the main path to the pool area, one lower level bathroom has a bath but now shower, and the light switches are low and can be difficult to find Overall, a very nice place to stay. We would absolutely go back!

Home worked well for the 6 of us (family of 4 + family of 2). Helpful notes about area: Easy drive to Safeway, Walmart, marina, downtown, etc. Airport is about 20 min. away (but has very limited food options inside). House is in a neat, quiet neighborhood in the hills; enjoyable area for walking, but be prepared for steep streets. At night the coqui frogs are pretty loud -- especially with windows open because of no A/C (the house did stay cool overnight however during our March stay). Not all luaus were running because of covid, but we did see the one at the Sheraton and enjoyed it very much. Highly recommend the night snorkel with manta rays. ABC stores are mostly a glorified gift shop and you can find fun items there. If tourist shopping in Kona, public restrooms can be tough to find. WHAT WE LIKED: Nice kitchen size and amenities; outdoor spaces comfy & roomy; amazing views from upper deck and pool; lots of counter space in master bathroom; roomy laundry/mud room by the garage entrance; more "starter supplies" than expected (laundry detergent, TP, paper towels, soap; also had mini shampoos, etc. -- but no Kleenex provided; plenty of towels/beach towels and linens; every room had ceiling fans; floor fans available in closets; nice neighborhood; coolers, beach chairs/items in garage; outdoor shower was fun; home was clean and comfortable.ODDITIES/INCONVENIENCES: Pool was not heated and never naturally warmed up during our stay (in March) - very disappointing; moldy cushions on 2 pool chaises, plus one wood chaise was broken (when reported, we were told it was supposed to have been thrown away before our arrival); privacy issue between master bathroom and the adjacent bedroom (the 2 "windows" in master bath looked directly into the adjoining bedroom; also had to cover the peekaboo window in the master shower with towels, as the blind did not offer enough privacy); master bathroom is not walled in -- just a half wall between the bathroom and bedroom area; the other main floor "bedroom" is roomy but has no closet and no glass windows -- just screens and metal blinds (one of the screens had a 2-inch hole, which we had to tape up with a sandwich bag to keep bugs out); no blinds on the big windows in the living room (house could get pretty hot in the afternoon); bottom dishwasher tray did not slide properly -- very difficult to align when full of dishes; only way to access the pool inside house is through bedroom downstairs - FYI.

Wonderful view and location! Only suggestions would be to stock hairdryers in bathrooms! Thank you!

Fixing ice maker not so much Ordered new ice maker but not replaced while we were here. Ice from store bag placed in ice bin but cubes too big to fit through the dispenser outlet. Stuck together and froze Part of ice outside the freezer melted onto floor Not a big deal

Absolutely wonderful! If you are looking for a property in the heart of Kona, with easy access to so much going on in the neighborhood and access to get to the highways for day trips...this is the place! But the best part I think was every evening ensuring we are home for the sunset! We were fortunate to have WONDERFUL sunsets, each andevery night we were there. We sat with our cocktails and phones ready....snapping every picture we could. The property is so spacious with an an exceptionally well stocked kitchen. I really could not have asked for a better location to spend my birthday with my amazing friends. Well done Ho'o Maluhia!!
