The condo is wonderful, well cared for and very comfortable. January weather is always a gamble and the storms kept the water activities to a minimum, but the location and comfort of the condo made up for it. The surf was high but the whales were close. The spinner dolphins danced daily, the turtles came when they could and the eels were active in the pools. All from the lanai. Well stocked kitchen and extremely nice welcome basket. So nice!

What a fantastic property! This was our first year without our adult children for Thanksgiving and our first extended stay on the “Big Island”! It was a much needed rest from our crazy worlds. We loved the Lāna’i in the mornings and evenings (look for all the fish & turtles), the walking distance to downtown (we never ate at the same place twice), and the central location to either explore north or south. We even got to see Kilauea active lava flow before episode 37.

Where to begin...from the moment you step into the condo, not only does the view take your breath away but the warm welcome gift of fruits and goodies as well as the beautiful style of decor is so welcoming. The condo was spotless and if you so desire, you could cook to your heart's content as there are all sorts of gadgets including a bread machine, all in matching teal color! The hosts' communication was very good via VRBO website or by text. All in all, a wonderful and relaxing place to kick back and relax. Thank you to our hosts', Steven & Jenni

What a gem! Oceanfront condo with amazing views. I could have sat on the lanai all day watching the turtles come in & out and all the colorful fish that were coming in with the waves! Condo was very clean and organized. Everything you needed in the kitchen and more. All the amenities you can think of were provided. Even a bandaid when I needed one. Great location and walking distance to many shops and restaurants. Welcoming treats were a pleasant surprise! The hosts were easy to communicate with. Check in and out was an easy process. I highly recommend staying here. I know I will again!

Bottom line up front: for 2 people, we'd strongly consider staying here, again. The ocean view was fantastic and the location very good to shops and such. The central AC in this unit didn't work, but they provided two portable units that were adequate. The bathroom door is a bit hard to close if you are fairly large in size. The host provided a very nice starter kit of fruits and coffee, giving you some time to plan your days. Did I mention the view was fantastic?

It has everything you need and more. There was a bowl of Island fruits and wine on the counter when we arrived. The sound of the ocean and the reef fish below the lanai are unbeatable. We were able to walk to restaurants and a nearby snorkel beach. A cool place for 2 in a great location. The hosts, Steven Lee and Jenni, are the best. Mahalo!
