Photos and Description of the Mauna Lani vacation townhome rental
Townhome, 2 Bedrooms, 2 Baths, (Sleeps 2-4)

Situated poolside, our luxurious plantation-style, two story, 2 BR/2 BA (1331 Sq Ft) vacation rental villa is the perfect place to enjoy your Hawaii vacation! Because our villa is NOT a full-time rental, you can relax in style while enjoying quality furnishings and decor. The villa is professionally decorated with an elegant tropical island flair that is both comfortable and inviting. Moreover, our vacation home is all about location, location, location! Just steps away to the gate entry are 2 pools, 2 hot tubs, a fully equipped fitness centre and gathering pavilion. Wake up to magnificent sunrises with views of Mauna Kea and the Kohala Coast or enjoy the quiet pools and impeccably maintained gardens!

KITCHEN AND DINING ROOM:

The fully-equipped gourmet kitchen has everything you need to make preparing meals a breeze. The kitchen is accented with sleek granite countertops and features top of the line GE appliances and is fully stocked with full place settings for 12, along with outdoor place settings. Counter stools make conversation easy for guests who enjoy gathering in the kitchen, while the dining room is tastefully furnished with a table that seats 4 adults comfortably.

LIVING ROOM:

The well-appointed living room has an open and airy feeling created by a soaring 20-foot ceiling. Furnished with a large Tahitian sectional sofa, ottoman, home entertainment centre (32' LCD flat screen HDTV w/built-in DVD and free unlimited movies with NETFLIX), and writing/computer desk, the spacious living room is a place for relaxing any time of the day. We have a CD music library of hawaiian artists for your listening enjoyment!

MASTER BEDROOM AND BATH HIGHLIGHTS:

The two bedrooms are located on separate floors and offer the ultimate in privacy. The upstairs master bedroom features a king canopy bed with luxurious bedding, a 26' LCD flat screen HDTV w/DVD and iHome alarm clock w/iPod docking station. Step out on to the lanai where comfortable chairs, ottomans and amazing views of Mauna Kea and the Kohola Mountains await you. The spa-like master bathroom is finished with tile floors, a spacious shower, private water closet and large double vanity with granite countertops. A full-size jetted tub is ideal for soaking after a day of sightseeing, golfing, swimming or relaxing on the beach.

GUEST BEDROOM HIGHLIGHTS:

The main floor bedroom is decorated in a tropical palm motif, and includes a queen size bed, ceiling fan, a 26' LCD flat screen HDTV w/DVD and alarm clock. The adjacent bathroom has tile floors, a single vanity with a granite countertop and a tub with shower.

LANAIS:

Start the day with a cup of freshly brewed Kona coffee and watch the sun rise over the 14,000-ft. snow-capped (in winter) Mauna Kea and Observatory from the main floor or upstairs lanai. The wrap-around main floor lanai is complete with a Viking Gas BBQ and wet bar, granite countertops and elegant, resin wicker furniture. Imagine firing up a Hawaiian BBQ for 'al fresco' dining, or relaxing on the loveseat, reading a book and sipping a Mai Tai while taking in the view of the beautiful pool and gardens!

LAUNDRY ROOM:

The front loading washer and dryer make extended stays a breeze. The full length granite counter top and cabinets provide ample storage space for supplies.

AMENITIES:

We are located in the prestigious Mauna Lani Resort on the Big Island of Hawaii's sunny, South Kohala Coast. Surrounded by the championship Francis H. I'i Brown North Golf Course, Kulalani's luscious, tropical landscaping is a tranquil, green oasis amid nearby lava fields. The setting is intimate, impeccably maintained and gated for privacy. Just steps away from our poolside unit is a lap pool, state of the art fitness centre, generously sized resort style lagoon pool, hot tubs and a pavilion area. The Beach Club boasts a gorgeous white sand beach with fantastic snorkeling, a restaurant and bar. Golfers will be impressed by the picturesque Francis H. I'i Brown North and South courses, where guests are eligible for significant discounts on green fees, advance booking privileges and preferential tee times. Five other golf courses are located within a 10-mile radius.

The resort offers miles of hiking trails through ancient Hawaiian fish ponds and Honu (sea turtle) nurseries or take a helicopter tour over the Kilauea Volcano from the nearby heliport. Explore waterfalls, rainforests, horse ranches and the historic towns of Waimea, Hawi, Kona and Hilo. Take a tour of a coffee farm. Go horseback riding at Parker Ranch. Hawaii's beaches come in all different colours: white, black, green, salt and pepper. Scuba, snorkel, surf or boogie board in clear, turquoise water. Go deep sea fishing. Watch the whales. Swim with dolphins. Snorkel or scuba with manta rays.

Our villa is the ideal setting for your Hawaii vacation. For serious inquiries only, please email or call us. Please, no monthly inquiries (as monthly rates are not offered).

About The Owner

We live in Vancouver, British Columbia (Canada). We are avid travelers and discovered the Hawaiian islands during a cruise a few years ago. After we tendered in Kona, we toured a coffee farm, visited 'The Place of Refuge' and had an amazing snorkeling experience at Kahalu'u ... all in one day! The people we met on our tour were genuine and friendly, and we soon fell in love with the 'Big Island and its authentic 'Aloha' culture. It was a dream come true for us when we purchased our vacation home at the Mauna Lani Resort in 2008. With each visit we feel more part of the 'aloha' spirit and community.

Nina and Richard

The Owner purchased this townhome in 2008
Why The Owner chose Mauna Lani

We chose the Mauna Lani Resort because of the fabulous beaches and the abundance of sunshine on Hawai'i's South Kohala Coast (an attractive feature for those who live in a coastal rain forest!). When we initially toured the Mana Lani resort community, we loved the the fact that there was a gourmet supermarket right down the road, a private beach club, a spa and a fabulous fitness centre all within the resort community. Although we are not avid golfers, we also liked the fact that there are two championship golf courses within the resort. We choose the Kulalani complex because it was brand new and immediately felt like home. The villas were spacious and well laid out. As well, the amenities (2 pools and fitness center) were among the best complex amenities in the resort community.

The only regret we had about our stay is that it wasn't longer! Nina and Richard were very helpful with suggestions when we were planning our trip. The property was gorgeous and peaceful. It's 5-minute walk to the Fairmont Orchid Hotel which is the host hotel for the Hawaii Half Ironman. Would definitely stay here again!

This was our second time staying at this property and it was just as perfect as we remembered. Once again Richard and Nina were always prompt with handling any questions we had. They are completely trustworthy and honest which is so nice when dealing with VRBO properties. The villa is always kept in prestine condition and there really is not one thing that they have not thought of. The kitchen is stocked with every possible utencil and appliance. The beds are also very comfortable. This time we brought another couple with us and we really enjoyed making our own breakfasts and eating outside on the lanai. We also BBQ'd a couple of times and just enjoyed a relaxing evening staying in the villa. We used the beach club often and I learned to "Stand Up Paddle" by renting a surf board right there on the beach which included a quick lesson. My new icecream obsession became "toasted coconut" icecream which was easily purchased at the icecream shop behind Foodland which is about a 10 minute walk. We saw whales jumping every single day we were there and also hiked to Kiholo Bay where we saw about 30 turtles just hanging out. Enjoyed taking an ATV tour along the North Shore as well. There is just not a thing to complain about when you stay here and we will definitely be back. If you are thinking about choosing to stay here please take special care of this villa. It is a special place and needs to stay that way!!

We had a great stay at this condo. The condo was beautiful, well appointed and in pristine condition. The Mauna Lani resort is a lovely area and the Kululani development is the best. Richard and Nina were great to work with and we would definitely recommend this property to any one.

Luxurious townhome in excellent location for getting around Big Island

This townhome is extremely well maintained and beautifully decorated. Great access to the pools, hot tub and exercise area. Very quiet and private. The snorkeling at the Mauna Lani beach club was one of best on islands and we did most of them including Captain Cook and Two step. We also enjoyed watching the sunset from one of the restaurants at the Fairmont Orchid, Easy to use as a base for day trips such as Pololu Valley, Mauna Kea and Kona coast. I would highly recommend this condo to anyone and look forward to my return visit.

Will miss the morning breakfasts with birdsongs surrounded by the tropical plants on the terrace

Very, very nice place to base our Kona vacation at. Everything in the description (written and photos) is as promised. It was definitely a place I would stay at again and again. While a bit heavy-handed on the reminder notes and photos of the owners, this strategy must work well as the place was in excellent shape. Most anyone will find the number and variety of kitchen appliances mind-numbing. Definitely will miss the morning breakfasts just outside the kitchen surrounded by the local birds and tropical landscaping! If you can, go to Waimea, check out Merriman's for an excellent dinner!

This two bedroom unit for 4 people is exceptional! Beautiful decor, well-appointed kitchen, quiet neighborhood, two lovely swimming pools very close by. We enjoyed the beach club every day, and also spent a lot of time at the Mauna Lani Racquet Club playing tennis. A perfect place (there are stairs up to the master bedroom) for thoughtful and considerate guests.

Luxury in Kulalani 2006

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Dec 17, 2012
  • Stayed: Dec 2012
Being vacation condo owners ourselves, we were blown away with how nice Kulalani 2006 is. This vacation rental is not your typical vacation rental. Nina and Richard have gone out of their way to create a 5 star condo to share with those who are fortunate enough to book it for their Big Island stay. The pictures of this condo do not do it justice. The condo is absolutely beautiful, from the furniture to the decor, to the lovely dishes and pretty plastic ware. The starter bath soaps and shampoos were a treat. Papaya scented. Nina also supplies plenty of cleaning items. I have been at some condos that don't even supply you with 1 bottle of cleaner.

Nina and Richard supply everything you need for your pool trips and beach visits. Speaking of the pool, this condo's location is really great. The pool is practically in your back yard. Wonderful for those ice filled Mai Tai and snackie runs. There is also a fridge at the pool, so you can keep your supplies there if you choose. We visited mid December and practically had the pool to ourselves. The restrooms at the pool were modern, clean and always well stocked. The gym is located at the pool. A short walk from 2006. The machines and free weights are clean. You also have control of the air conditioning.

Nina and Richard were always available to answer any questions that we had. They are a pleasure to deal with. We had such a great time that we are booking the condo again for 2013 and 2014. Do take time to read the white information binder. Nina supplies great information about the beaches, activities and dining around the Island.

If you decide to book this lovely condo please take care of it as you would your own home. Treat it with respect so we can all continue to enjoy this wonderful place.

Thank You Nina and Richard for sharing your special vacation home with us.

My husband and I just recently stayed at Richard and Nina's beautiful townhome at Kulalani. This was our 2nd visit- and even better than the first!

The unit is gorgeous and it's location overlooking the pool cannot be beat. We so enjoyed the outdoor patio area and would have an afternoon mai tai on the couches.

The bedroom is beautiful and we love the spa like features of the bath!

The kitchen is better stocked than mine at home! Next time we plan to use the margarita maker!

Thanks so much!

We had another wonderful vacation at this very well appointed condo. The owner's are very detail oriented and all you need to do is show up with beach clothes and one dinner outfit. We celebrated my husband's 65th birthday and rented 2 condos at Kulalani: this one for us and the other for our children. Although the other was great, this condo was definitely much nicer. We love the common area with the 2 pools and the large barbecue pavilion, but what brings us back to Kulalani is the beach club ( beautiful white sand beach with wonderful snorkeling. We will stay again and again in this condo. Can't wait for our next visit!

This was our second time staying at Richard & Nina's paradise home. It is close to the pool and exercise area but is very quiet and restful. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you could want or need it was just like home. We enjoyed the outdoor grill. Both times it was very clean and comfortable. We especially enjoy using the beachclub and cabanas and having lunch at the restaurant at the beach. Even though we recommend this home to others we would like to keep it our own little secret!
