(5 out of 5)
We loved tunnels beach the best. It had the best snorkeling on the island, and we finally found the sea turtles we were missing!
The shaved ice is great and is a must!
Drive to the end of road at the resort in Princeville for the sunset. It was beautiiful.
I thought it was a nice unit, and had enough space for everyone. However, the kitchen utensils were sparse. The deck was a bit unsightly. The kitchen cabinets are too high to use efficiently.
We had a great time and the weather cooperated!
I liked best the size and location of the unit, particularly with 7 of us occupying it. There was never a problem of overcrowding. However, for the benefit of future guests you might like to ensure that all the important items are in working order, for instance the lights in the bedroom on your left as you enter did not work, only 2 gangs of the 4 gang toaster were working and 2 days before the end the remaining 2 gangs became faulty in that only 1 side was toated at a time. I did report this to your office and also that for the last 3 or 4 days the broadband modem failed. These matters did not spoil an enjoyable vacation but I point them out so you can rectify them for others. I had no best retaurants as we did not go out much but probably the Paradise in the village was a good local one. Kind regards and best wishes for the future of your enterprise. John
The unit was absolutely immaculate upon arrival. It was so nice to have everything we needed at our fingertips, dish soap, laundry soap, etc. What was most impressive was that a lot of times you see accommodations on the internet and book the room, but upon arrival it does not look like the picture you saw. This was not the case at all witht he Mauna Kai, what you see is what you get. The other thing that made me nervous about booking this unit on line was not being sure that I would not be a victim of fraud. I did do a BBB check on Hawaiian Vacation Rentals and found they have only had 1 complaint in 3 years, in addition, they are a member of the BBB. My worst nightmare would have been to have my six guests arrive and have no where to stay. The only recommendation I would have is to somehow increase the airflow in the unit, Hanalei is a very humid side of the island. There is one room that has an air conditioner upstairs, all the other rooms have oscillating fans, which more or less recirculates the warm humid air. A NOTE for the UNIT OWNER - you should probably waterseal your wrap around deck as the wood is beginning to rot on the edges. The best food on the island is at "Sone's Deli" in the Kukui Grove Shopping Center. the restaurant is known far and wide for authentic Hawaiian food. I would definitely not eat at "Calypso's" in Hanalei again, my significant other got very bad food poisoning from the Macadamia crusted Onaga.
Though there were no classic beach or mountain views, the open airy second floor deck was a delightful place to simply enjoy the breeze.
Beautiful condo. Great for families because of the 3 bedrooms plus loft bedroom. We loved eating meals out on the lanai. The pool was delightful.
The unit was spacious and wonderfully arranged for use. The deck was immense, surrounding virtually the whole unit on 3 sides. The unit was well-situated with ease of access to the shopping center and main road. We could have stayed for at least 1-2 months!!!
Loved the accomodations!! Lovely and spacious home!! rn
Aloha again,rnThis time it was my daughter and son-in-law and their children who stayed in unit 1B. I did visit with them a few times. The unit was very nice and well furnished. They all enjoyed all the rooms and the TV's, etc. A great time was had by all. Again, I didn't hear any complaints. We all loved the island and will certainly return some day soon. Thank you again.
