The eight of us had a beautiful vacation here for 10 days and are making plans to go back again. The house was set up beautifully with separate entrances for the different rooms, far enough apart to have plenty of privacy. Comfortable seating throughout the interior & exterior and kitchen is set up to easily prepare meals. Lanai has breathtaking views that almost make you question whether it's real. We stay at a lot of VRBO's and this one's definitely set up the best. Comfortable mattresses as well, which is lacking in a lot of other homes. If I had any negative thing to say it would be that someone calling themselves a "landscape technician" let themselves in unannounced without any advance notice and start taking pictures that included friends and family in the pool. We were later advised that the homeowner did not know they were coming either, which was disconcerting. The guest book does advise that a pool company and landscaper will be coming but they had already been there and they knocked first. This person just came in and started taking pictures and was not professional in how they handled things.
Mahalo for leaving us a review and feedback! I just want to clarify for future guests - the landscaper did not enter the home, they were on property. The homeowner hired the landscape architect to create a more private setting for guests and so this required taking photos. The homeowner did mention she was unaware that the architect was coming because she missed her call from the night before, otherwise, we would have definitely called to let you know. She did introduce herself and explained what she needed to do. We apologize we didn't provide notice and that this affected your stay.

Stayed here for Ironman - just an outstanding location 15 mins from the pier (and south of Palani, which made the roads more accessible on race day). Every amenity that we wanted, lots of room for the five adults, with each of our children having their own space. Views in the morning and at night were exquisite. While running and riding from this spot, meant lots of hill climbs, the resort like quality of the premises was worth it. We used the pool every day. The master bedroom with ensuite was a very large refuge. The appliances were first rate, an excellent stove, fridge and BBQ with dual dishwashers and washer/dryer. We did have a problem with the fridge and while a repair person was dispatched, they weren’t able to fix the problem in the time we were there (a part needed to be ordered). Nice touches included lablelling all of the light switches. Being a gated community, it is very quiet and while we thought that might be challenging to pass through every time we entered, it was a smooth process - even when ordering a cab (we needed one to transport to the airport and Kona Cab easily beat the price of Uber). Overall extremely satisfied with the experience, would stay here if we ever return to the big island.

This property was gorgeous. It has every amenity needed for a great stay. The house was extremely beautiful and clean. The outdoor area was perfect for hanging out and relaxing while watching the sunset. The location of the house was great for seeing all the sites. It was close to all the restaurants, local activities and beaches. We took some drives to the other side of the island to the waterfalls at Hilo and to Volcano national park and they were about 2 hours each way. Overall great trip and we would 100% stay here again!!!

Great family vacation in Kona, HI! Rented two houses for 16 people. 1. One family was in Ohana lea 11: The house is beautiful. The master bedroom is in the main house, and the rest of the rooms are in the guest house. The house was clean, and supplied, some basic needs like toilet paper, dish soap, and so forth. The area were the pool is located is breath taking with the sunset and earlier mornings. Would recommend bring your own beach towels, as the ones there are small. If you have small children, you need to be careful, as pool area and hot tub area is slippery. I would recommend the owners put a mat not to fall. The security staff were nice and we felt safe. I had to call because a couple if things needed fixing. The maintenance staff came the next day. Very nice! There are rules like beach towels cannot be hang outside to be aware if. You need to clean grill before departure which makes sense.. but you are paying a lot of money, and I believe that should be included with the cost. The place was clean - but I think it could of been a littler clean.. put need to be a little cleaner... but then again... my family is extremely clean. The main house is air conditioner, the guest rooms have the air conditioner on the wall. Beautiful Place!
