Amazing! We have been to Hawaii many times and this house is one of the best we stayed in. It was very spacious and we loved that it was a single story home. The house was very clean and in a great, quiet area. The pool and hot tub were also amazing. The house had everything we needed and so much space. One of the best spots of the house was the outdoor shower! We would highly recommend this home!

Another perfect stay at a perfect home

Our family returned to this beautiful Mauna Lani home for another visit to the Big Island, and once again we could not have more happy with the experience from beginning to end. The home and property are better than ever, with impeccable attention to detail inside and out. We love staying near to our favorite beaches and getaway adventures around the island. And the off days spent relaxing at home here were a vacation within a vacation. There's nothing I would ask to change about the property or the quality of the experience overall, and I expect we'll get a chance to visit the Big Island, and this lovely home, again before too long!

Big Island perfection

We stayed at Laura's beautiful Mauna Lani home for an extended vacation on the Big Island and enjoyed every moment of the visit. The home and property are just perfect. Beautifully maintained, exceptionally well-equipped (seriously, among the best we've ever seen), the location up north on the coast was great for us, the amenities and access to the beach club was a nice bonus, and the checkin process and communication was top-notch throughout. We had no problems whatsoever the entire visit, and would gladly stay in Laura's home again on our next return to the Big Island.

This is the second time we have stayed in one of Laura's properties. The house is professionally and beautifully decorated with professional appliances and the lux bedding. I traveled with my two daughters and three grandkids. The layout was perfect as the Master bedroom is separate from the other rooms. The private beach is close and Laura has plenty of gear to take with you. We will definitely be back!

Perfect house for grandparents and kids!

The house was much bigger than we had expected based on the listing. It had absolutely everything that we could have needed for our vacation and more. The beach club was perfect for swimming, snorkeling and lounging. The back patio door which opened completely to create a seemless indoor/outdoor space to enjoy the beautiful weather and read while the kids played in the pool was great. Finally, the master bedroom suite with huge bathroom, bathtub, 2 indoor showers, and an outdoor shower was complete luxury. Thanks for a wonderful Hawaii experience.
