Very nice home! Loved the sunsets at night and the private pool and hot tub. Lots of room for everyone. Nice appliances and well furnished kitchen. Recommended!!

We contacted management & also spoke with workers 2nd day there & daily after BUT still no jacuzzi heat until Friday, 6 days into our 8 day stay (we were looking forward to the therapeutic effect after golf, etc), every morning large 15 foot high outside water leakage approx 4:20 am that lasted for 1/2 hour & woke us up every am, annoying door alarms to pool (state required), guest toilet was unsteady/rocking & had to be fixed, they need to have clear instructions regarding how to use TVs with multiple remote controls that worked even differently in master bdrm, a dish drying rack would have been appreciated, 1 burner on BBQ not working, 2 of the bikes had flat tires, 1 bike was rubbing on something, shifters were sl off (minor bike maintainance needed), the electronic door locks need to be lit so you can see what #s you are punching in. I include all this because many times the owners are unaware of all the issues & problems the enters encounter thus they can make the needed changes or not. The house itself was superb, 1 story which our knees appreciated! The Ohana is almost a 2nd master bdrm. A great supply of spices, cooking utensils, knives, pots & pans, dishes, a BBQ, etc but a little light on wine glasses, the welcoming coffee supply was minor (1 day), . Beds were comfortable & clean. I may sound a little harsh but we stayed here in 2019 with a local owner & everything was excellent which is why we returned. If we had any questions or problems he took care of them immediately. The owners also let us use the 6 passenger electric cart for use around the Mauna Lani resort (it's still in the garage but not for renter use, which is a shame). We been coming to the islands every year for 30+ years & would enjoy being able to stay here again if these problems can be resolved

We stayed for a week at Christmas - 2 families and 1 grandparent. Plenty of room for everyone. The home is beautiful and well equipped with everything you can need. Tons of pool/beach equipment/bikes/snorkel etc. the beach club is wonderful with a restaurant and bar. The association pool is great - hardly anyone there, bbq grills/fridge/ comfy furniture. The pool at the house is nice but not heated. Hot tub is great for adults and kids. Location is easy to airport/beaches/shopping. Perfect Christmas home! Highly recommend.

Overall, the property was just what a family with small children needed. The only issue was that the Beach Equipment (umbrellas) were not in good repair. Otherwise, we had a great time! Thanks!!

The house was very nice along pool at home and community pool and beach!! We did not like the alarms on the door to the pool. There is no question that safety for children is a priority. However it does not make sense to not be able to have an open indoor/outdoor space and a alarm. There were NO children that could not swim with us. Require the tenant to sign off on those liability’s. The starter on the grill does not work and needs to be repaired.

We were here with family (4 adult couples) and found the house everything we expected and more. Was very clean and updated. Kitchen was well stocked. Had some problem with the pool and hot tub not heating but issue was taken the same day! Would highly recommend this home!

This property was everything and more! The rental had everything we needed or forgot. There were TONS of amenities and this house was extremely clean and relaxing and the neighborhood was beautiful. Management was easy to get a hold of and everything was pretty easy to use in the house. We would definitely stay again.

This was our 4th trip to the Big Island and to Mauna Lani. We love staying in KaMilo! We were a bit disappointed with this house though. When we arrived we noticed the backyard area hadn't been cleaned at all. There were kids toys in the grass, and dirty BBQ utensils left on the grill. We also realized that many of the larger bowls and casserole dishes were dirty with food. I would expect to arrive to a clean property. I texted, emailed and finally called the property management company to let them know. We also asked, more than once,, about the light in the pool. We never got an answer as to why it wasn't on. So unfortunately we were not able to use the pool after sunset as it was too dark. A bit disappointing as we would've like to unwind in the back patio after a beach day. We will return to Mauna Lani and KaMilo, but will find a different house for our next trip. Hopefully they'll be more thorough in their future cleanings.

Great house. Very clean. Nice layout. Lots of toys provided. Very good Internet and TVs. Pool and hot tub were very clean and well maintained. Walking distance to Fairmont beach access. Much better location than the map implies. We rented an electric cart and that was ideal. An amazing trip. Absolutely recommend.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Paradise Awaits. The home is beautiful, clean, and has everything you could need. The backyard lanai was our favorite place to be, and the best spot to view the sunset each evening. We had trouble initially getting into the home due to a problem with the entry keypad. Also, we were disappointed that the spa was not working. It took a few days for the staff to respond to our problems, but then they did their best to fix the issues.

Beautiful home, beautiful location! We enjoyed our stay here. The home was equipped with everything we needed and more. Loved having all the beach toys, snorkel gear, swimming toys, bikes, scooters & helmets right at our finger tips. Also, there’s a grocery store 2 minutes away. The neighborhood is well cared for and very peaceful. Beautiful walks along the coast are just minutes away where we enjoyed watching the sunset and saw tons of turtles! Great find!

Great as always!

Easy access to our event at the Mauna Lani Resort. Great having the electric resort car.

The home was lovely, perfectly furnished and in the best location to enjoy the west side of the Big Island. We will definitely be going back.

THANK YOU for an amazing place to host our family in Hawaii!! Etienne- was so helpful - mahalo. The house was perfect for our family! Part of us stayed the the Fairmont and we enjoyed the Christmas Eve Luau - Christmas Day dinner and New Years Eve dinner and party all at the Fairmont which was very convenient. We hit all the beaches and even had a wedding on beach 69 for our son. We highly recommend Ettienne in his place and can’t wait till the next time!

The.house is amazing. Close to beaches shopping and restaurants but away from hustle and bustle. The pool and jacuzzi were excellent and offered hours of fun for the kids. We loved our stay here.

Great location, very well taken care of, and lots of extras for kids and the beach. The EV was really handy too. The property manager was very friendly and responsive. Hope to visit again soon!

It was very comfortable for the 8 of us.

This home was AMAZING with a super location and beautiful sunsets every night!!! Lynn and Etienne were so accommodating! They were always available with any questions. There was more than enough room for all of us and the home was Very Well Equipped with all the beds, toys, and water toys for the whole family for a Great Beach outing! They even recommended the Best Luau we've ever been to and restaurants to try! We all had a Very Comfortable and Fun vacation. Would not hesitate to do this again!!! Thank You So Very Much!!!

Lynn and Etienne are wonderful owners/managers, quick to respond and very accommodating. Their home and ohana were beautiful and outfitted with every amenity possible! The "extras" such as bikes,toys, paddle boards, beach chairs, umbrellas and especially the neighborhood electric vehicle were wonderful! Loved the pool, hot tub, beach club and community pool too. Our whole family of 6 adults and 5 kids had a fantastic vacation!

I grew up on Big Island. This home is Perfect for bringing our Sons and their families to visit and connect again to our Island Life. The Owners living nearby allow quick response to any questions. I loved that they offer Concierge services; like arriving with my grocery list items, already in the fridge for our hungry group of nine. The house has everything you could need. The activity Toys and NEV vehicle were such a Bonus to our daily plans. We love the Access to the Private Mauna Lani Beach and Na’pua Restaurant. Location is great. We were even able to watch July 4 th fireworks in Waikaloa from the backyard pool. We will definitely plan another Big Island Ohana Vacay at Pakele Lani again. Mahalo Nui Loa, RSE

The owners of the property were very helpful upon check-in and when we had an issue with the garage door. The property is lovely and spacious with so many toys for children as well as beach equipment for adults. Having the NEV in addition to our van was helpful for getting our large group to the beach or the grocery store, especially if everyone wasn't headed to the same place! The beds are very comfortable and the pillows are as well. Some of the main living areas could have used a bit more detailed cleaning, something that the owners may not have known was being missed. This property has so many options for swimming and touring about, with public beaches being about 10-15 minutes away. We truly enjoyed our stay and appreciate the hospitality of E and L!

This home had literally everything you could ever need to make your vacation a wonderful memory. I was very lucky to find this rental

Already booked for next year!
