A Perfect Stay in Waikoloa Village – We Might Just Move Here!
My wife and I wanted to bring our whole Ohana to paradise—four adult couples and our grandson—and this home was the perfect place to do it. I've always thought about moving to Maui, but after staying here, I might have to rethink that! The Big Island is incredible, and Waikoloa Village has a special charm of its own.Because of the time change, we took early morning walks through the neighborhood and immediately noticed the welcoming, community feel. Neighbors were out on their front porches, "talking story," which made us feel right at home. One of the most unexpected and delightful surprises was a flock of free-range turkeys that wandered into the front yard!The house itself was fantastic—well-appointed with thoughtful touches like laundry facilities, an ironing board, and even coffee, filters, and creamer stocked for us. Having access to the pool was a huge plus, and the ping-pong table in the garage was a fun bonus. Andy, our host, was outstanding—checking in via email to ensure our stay was perfect.We will absolutely stay here again… unless we end up becoming neighbors!

Wonderful vacation
My three sisters and I spent 8 nights at this wonderful property. The kitchen is well stocked and the house had everything we needed. The backyard is fabulous – very private and beautiful. We enjoyed the large patio and sitting around the pool. There was plenty of lawn furniture and tons of beach gear available to use. The neighborhood is nice and was very quiet. The upstairs did get a bit warm in the late afternoon but cooled off nicely after opening the windows and turning on the ceiling fans. The owner was very responsive to any questions we had. Would highly recommend!

Great place for families
Our family of 5 enjoyed staying at this lovely home from start to finish. The host was very kind, accommodating, and communicative. Check in/out instructions were clear and easy to follow. The home was clean and comfortable with plenty of bed linens, bath towels, and beach towels. The kitchen was nicely stocked with plenty of kitchen pieces and appliances for preparing and eating meals. The upstairs and downstairs living areas allowed our three rambunctious boys to spread out. There were some kids toys and books available that our 5 year old enjoyed. All household appliances worked well, including each AC unit in the bedrooms that we opted in to use. WiFi also worked well, so our oldest could easily connect to Google Classroom account to keep up with school assignments. TV had cable and DVD player with collection of nice movies (one rainy night after dinner we watched Indiana Jones on DVD as a family). No streaming available on TVs but that didn’t bother us…we were too busy doing other things, like enjoying the pool or going on outings, to really watch a lot of TV. The heated pool was nicely kept, and the backyard is surrounded by full foliage (including a lemon tree with huge lemons) that gave the feel of a private oasis. The garage was nicely stocked with beach gear that we found useful on our outings(beach chairs, beach umbrella, cooler, boogie boards). Neighborhood was quiet and felt very safe. Definitely recommend this vacation home!

A great stay, highly recommend
First, he property is just as shown in the pictures if not better.
The house was perfect for our family (2 + 3 teenagers), each kid had their own room upstairs, and we had the master downstairs.
The patio and swimming pool are great. The kids loved it and could spend all day just there.
The house is stacked with kitched items for every need. Moreover, it has all the beach and snorkeling gear you may need, and many to choose from.
The ping pong table was a nice surprise and we loved it.
Andy is great to communicate with and always responses quickly.
The neighborhood is very nice and quiet. There is a bug supermarket less than a mile away, and a dew food options.
We loved every moment and would definitly come back!

We enjoyed the house
This house has plenty of room inside and outside. We had 9 people in our group and there was enough room to get together and enough room to have space when we needed. The pool is nice even though we didn’t use it much. The yard is private and nice. Sunset views are beautiful and everything we wanted to do was within a reasonable distance. The only negative thing I would mention: I asked the owner about air conditioning because it is listed as an amenity and the response was that it would cost extra. I thought that was rather petty especially considering the cost of the rental.

We LOVED this house
This was such a great house for our family. You can’t beat the backyard and the pool. Our kids range from 8-20 and we had two extras with us and the house accommodated our needs so well. It was quiet, off the beaten path yet still close to the beach and a local grocery store. If you are not staying at a resort, the reality is you are always driving somewhere on the island to get places. We loved staying away from the hustle and bustle and the yard felt so nice and private. We ate our meals outside and enjoyed a quick dip in the pool every morning and evening. Our kids thought this place was amazing. The house was well stocked with beach things (snorkel gear, cooler, chairs, umbrellas etc.) and we took full advantage. Kitchen was also well stocked for our needs. While our kids are a little older, we have traveled with our kids when they were very young and this place was also clearly prepared for younger families if needed (pack and play, high chair, toys etc). I would highly recommend!

Fab family reunion
Andrew's house is great for a relaxing family vacation. We had 4 adults and two teens, and really enjoyed the private backyard, grill and gorgeous swimming pool. A rental car is of course essential -- Waikoloa Village does feel a bit remote. But there is a very convenient grocery store close by, and the teens were huge fans of the shave ice at the resort down the hill. Enjoyed evening cocktails on the lanai and watched the sunset. Highly recommend this rental!

Best equipped house I've ever stayed at!
I'm from Kona and return with my family frequently. We tried staying somewhere different this time (instead of in town) and found this place in Waikoloa. The location was convenient for us to access Kona and Waimea to see family and to get the kids down to the beach (when they weren't in the pool).
The nice surprise with this house was how well equipped it was - kitchen stuff, snorkeling gear, beach towels, etc., etc. We usually find that our rentals have the bare minimum or are missing fairly essential items. This one was great and we'd recommend it for families or groups of friends.

Perfect for a large family
We had a group with grandparents, adult children, spouses and grandchildren including a school age child, toddler and infant. This was a perfect place to stay together and venture out for adventures and beach days. It was nice to come back in the afternoons for relaxation, naps and pool play. Quiet neighborhood, not far to beaches and restaurants. Beautiful sunsets enjoyed from the lanai. Room for everyone to have space and enjoy meals together. Lots of equipment to borrow for the beach and ocean fun. Washer and dryer and bbq were greatly appreciated. We loved our experience and time here.

Beautiful!
This home is beautiful. It is big enough to spread out in, you can watch the wild turkeys, and it is in a good place to reach many of the other places you may want to go on the island. It is not in a big city which is nice. We took day trips out to other places, and my dad was very happy to cook in the well-equipped kitchen. It has everything you could possibly need to have a really good vacation on the big island. We were happy to not be in a hotel — this home was clean, and we felt more protected from COVID concerns. I would recommend this home to anyone, easily. It was a beautiful place to spend a couple of weeks in paradise.

Perfect Family-Friendly Rental!
My adult sisters and our families (6 adults and 2 kids) stayed in Andy's rental home for a week in early July. We stayed there while other family members stayed at Hilton Waikoloa Village, which was only a couple of minutes away by car.
What a place! It's important to share that the photos don't do the property justice. Rooms are larger than they appear, the kitchen is wonderfully sized for multiple cooks, and there are two distinct family rooms on each floor. The kitchen was well stocked, beyond what we've come to expect for rentals (pots & pans, spices, food storage, etc.). There was also a wide variety of DVDs, kids toys, pool toys, and beach gear (chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, kids toys, etc.). Everything you could ever want!
Andy was great and super responsive. If we ever happen to be lucky enough to visit the Big Island again, we will definitely try to stay here again!
