great family place
no soap in the showers or bathrooms but the host was very nice we didn't ask for anything some things were broken like the BBQ , pillows sheets and bedding were worn out. Once again the host couldn't be nicer and felt she did all she could.

Super Lanai with incredible views
Family of 8 (6 adults + children 9 & 11) enjoyed week stay at this large and inviting house with swimming pool, lots of parking and space for kids to play. Spent most of our time on the upper level with large & well equipped kitchen, large sitting room (TV worked well) and master suite. Ate family meals on the huge, wrap-around, screened lanai that also had lots of lounging areas plus bar fridge that was convenient. Overall an excellent choice for our family. Would mention, though, that lower-level bathrooms were tired (water pressure could be improved too) and in need of upgrade to match rest of house. Small disappointment was condition of pingpong paddles - only 3 were serviceable so we purchased a new one.

10 days of paradise
4 couples in this trip. The property is perfect for this kind of group. Each of the 4 bedrooms has its own bathroom and shower. The kitchen and living area is large and open creating a great meeting area. The screened in deck makes a relaxing area with plenty of furniture on all sides making a book reading get away easy. The pool in the midst of a beautiful landscaped yard was the icing on the cake. Candi was great checking in on us and letting us know we could call if anything was needed.

Spectacular
Unbelievable views! The house and grounds are immaculate. Candi and Jed are exceptional hosts. Manini Beach is just minutes away by car and offers good snorkeling access to Kealakekua Bay. This house has everything and is precisely as described in the listing information. Our party of 7 adults and 2 teens had a memorable vacation stay!

Wonderful house and trip!
The Maka Nui felt like home away from home. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back. As others have mentioned, Candi is great, very friendly and laid back. I would highly recommend this house.

Beautiful property…Perfect
Wonderful home and owners. Candi and her family are awesome and available when needed! Great place for large groups. Nice, spacious and comfortable common areas in main house. Everything you could possibly need in kitchen is available. Bedrooms are big with comfortable beds! Our group of 9 appreciated each bedroom having a full bath…really helped getting everyone ready and out the door quickly to enjoy Hawaii! Plus there is a bathroom in the common area of home. The lanai (patio) is enclosed by screen so you can enjoy the outdoors bug free and the view wowzer…fantastic. Great pool area for those times when you just wanna relax or enjoy a swim. The grounds are gorgeous and very private. We loved it.

Wonderful place to relax
We visited Hawaii with our family of 5 and a group of friends. The space was perfect for us! The rooms are huge and there's plenty of living space to hang out together, or spread out and read quietly on your own. The lanai boasts a gorgeous view - perfect for drinking coffee in the morning, catching a sunset, or practicing yoga if that’s your thing. We had a wonderful stay.
