"A true feeling of being on vacation. The food is EXCELLENT! The room is comfortable, quiet, and had everything we needed and more including little unexpected touches. The staff was incredible and attentive. The excursions were truly wonderful and meaningfully curated. The only complaint is that many of the activities were filled and we couldn’t participate in a few we wanted. We booked the trip about a week before coming and they seem to fill up fast. Other than that disappointment I really have no complaints. Even if there is a hiccup which there always will be anywhere you stay their response time to things is on point and I never felt not relaxed and pampered while there. Wish I could have stayed another week. Highly recommend the botanical dying classes with Sara, one word, MAGICAL✨✨✨ and DO NOT miss out on the morning canoe experience. The people who run the canoe excursion are very knowledgable about the Hawaiian culture and passionate about passing on the history. It was a spectacular experience. There are many luxury hotels but the Mauna Lani Auberge just takes it to the next level. I can’t wait to go back."

"Loved everything about this place!One request, a new mattress in the master bedroom, so soft, hard on the back."

"We loved Fairmont Orchid! The service was immaculate. Barbie, the manager, took care of an issue we had and made us very happy with our stay! We would stay at this Fairmont anytime we have an opportunity to return to the Big Island. And we would not hesitate to recommend it to friends and family."

"We loved staying at the Mauna Lani Golf Villas! Kimby & Ken were amazing hosts and super responsive with recommendations and info. We were grateful they made it possible for us to have a late check-out. The space was perfect for my husband, 5 kids and me. We loved having access to the beach club. The condo was well stocked with everything we needed. We especially loved having beach chairs, towels, boogie boards, sand toys and snorkel gear available in the condo. We had a blast paddle boarding to the captain cook monument to snorkel, doing the manta ray night snorkel, and taking the van tour down into the Waipio Valley. I'd highly recommend all of those activities. We can't wait to come back."

"This is our third year in a row that we have stayed at Hale Aloha and it is amazing every time. There is nothing fancy about his place but the purity of the experience is so great that we couldn't be happier having been there for another week. The sound of the ocean, the proximity of the water, the sense of privacy, the beauty of the sky, and the centrality of the location make this an unbeatable place to stay. We can't wait to return. Mahalo"

"The property was really a home away from home: clean, spacious, quiet, well equipped. Checking in and out was super easy, help, if needed, a phone call away. Bikes, beach equipment, coolers available for use free of charge and stored in the garage. Overall seamless, very pleasant experience. "

"Communication from owners was superb. Good location. Very comfortable and clean. Private grill with outdoor sink was fantastic. Short drive to the beach. It was a wonderful home base for a Big Island adventure. "

"Loved the decor and very comfortable bed. Everything you need was there for ease. Great host and location "
