Great condo, lots of space, quiet area
Myself, husband, and 2 teens enjoyed our stay. The teens were happy to each have their own sleeping area. The kitchen was great for making breakfast each morning. It was well stocked with dishes, pots & pans, spices, etc. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub area after long days sightseeing, hiking, and at the beach. The quiet pool area is very relaxing. We did not go to the resort beach, there are a few other really nice beaches close by that we choose to go to so the beach chairs, umbrella, towels, and snorkeling equipment that were provided were a really nice option for us.

Fabulous Vacation Rental
Aside from being too short, our stay at Palm Villas B23 was perfect in every way! The unit was immaculate, quiet, comfortable, and one of the best equipped vacation rentals we’ve had. We especially loved having all the beach gear (towels, chairs, umbrella, snorkeling equipment, and boogie boards) right in the garage ready for us. Palm Villas location is ideal, within easy walking distance of the shops and restaurants, and a pleasant 15-minute walk from the beach club. We used the pool and hot tub two afternoons; both were well maintained and uncrowded. The next door neighbor and her little dog were kind and welcoming, and the rental was even more spacious than it appears in photos. Mahalo, and hopefully we will be lucky enough to return for another stay someday!

Excellent location!
The condo’s location in Palm Villas is excellent, close to tennis, and the unit has lovely views of foliage and the pool. It was quiet and comfortably sleeps 6. We really appreciated the beach gear for guest use in the garage and loved spending time at the beach club. I would give 4.5 stars overall if I could. We had issues with some of the appliances not working properly including washer/dryer, and while it sleeps 6, the 2 tables each had 4 chairs. Kitchen has the basics. Parking is oddly in the unit next door. Property management was responsive, which we appreciated.

Great family trip
This condo is in a great location. We had everything we needed to cook and it was very easy to get to everything around the island. We used the private beach access one day, but there are so many beautiful beaches nearby that we ended up visiting a different beach every morning. Overall, we were very happy with the condo and the location and the hosts were very quick to respond to any questions. My only suggestion would be to add a day bed in the upstairs loft. There is plenty of space for it.

Peaceful retreat
The condo provided a restful and beautiful stay at Mauna Lani. This lovingly-cared for and sparking clean unit has a captivating view to Mauna Kea from the loft, super comfy furniture, and is thoughtfully surrounded by lush greenery that affords a sense of privacy between the unit and the pool across the lawn. The greenery, including a divine plumeria, and orientation also keep the house cooler. This time of year, the tradewinds provided most of the air conditioning needed. The kitchen has a good assortment of tools with plenty of working space, and the lanai bar appointments in addition a beautiful looking grill that I failed to take advantage of. The loft has a bed and a nicely-sized desk, which provided a work area with a gorgeous view. It's just a 20-25 min walk to the beach at Makaiwa Bay, and the tennis courts and fitness center are a 2 minute walk. All the communication from the owners and management was timely and helpful. Thank you for a relaxing and productive stay!

Quiet and Relaxing
We love Palm Villas because the property is beautiful, quiet close to the beaches and many restaurant choices. B23 is as described in the listing...pretty much everything you need for your stay. The master bedroom and bath are lovely, great king bed, plenty of hot water for your shower or bath. Lot of spices, condiments and kitchen accessories if you care to cook. We met the nice lady downstairs who "thanked" us for being so quiet. We told her that we appreciated her efforts in asking "boisterous" people to keep down the noise. We highly recommend Building B for anyone who enjoys a peaceful place when coming back home after a sun filled day!

Great Unit in Quiet Neighborhood
We initially choose this unit for it's access to private Mani Lani Beach Club and couldn't be happier. We spent the majority of our time at the beach and the rest of our time in the pool. The only thing that put a damper in our stay was getting yelled at when we were playing in the pool because the our kids were being 'too loud' while playing Marco Polo. To be fair, it does ask that you try to be quiet and courteous since residences are close to the pool. We did our best to keep it down in the pool area after that point, but it would have been nice to have some consistency as we frequently heard other kids screaming at the pool from within our unit throughout our stay. Other than that everything was fantastic. The kitchen was stocked with spices which was nice, and having in unit laundry was a great feature as well. If you get a chance, take the short walk from this unit over to the Petroglyph park and take the trail down through the lava and fish ponds to the beach. This was one of our kiddos favorite things to do as they loved the Egret tree and looking for Eels in the ponds.

Lovely unit great for family vacation
We loved staying here with our family including our 9 month old! The unit was well provisioned and included crucial things for traveling with small kids like a pack and play, high chair, and even beach toys and floaties! It really made it feel as if we were staying in our own home. We would enthusiastically stay here again next time we come to the Big Island!

Perfect Relaxing Stay
We were looking just to relax and enjoy a low key Hawaiian vacation. This condo provided everything for that. The condo is very clean and well kept and furnished and was always an enjoyable place to return to after going to the beach. The complex is well maintained and quiet which is what we wanted. The pool and hot tub were FABULOUS. We did use the private beach access and enjoyed our day there as well. The condo comes with everything you need for the beach as we did also venture out to some surrounding beaches as well. You'll find a great market near by and Tommy Bahama's happy hour and can catch the sunset at the Fairmont. We were a mix of three adults and two teens and we never felt crowded. We all agreed we'd like to return next year as the big island is our favorite. The only thing is the garage is on the smaller side so backing in a larger rental can be tricky for some. I'm used to bigger cars. We had a mini van. If that is the case you can request a parking placard to park on the street. I wish I was there now. Check in was a breeze by the way. We had no trouble with the below neighbor mentioned in other reviews. Thank you.

Very nice condo and community that is well maintained. Pleasantly surprised by how nice the pool was. Would have been nice to have umbrellas at the pool. Just a suggestion for the hoa. I also enjoyed the shoreline trail that was right outside of the gate. Only complaint about the condo is the remote was missing for the large ceiling fan so we had to run the ac more than usual.

We loved our stay here. The place was super clean and all the furniture (including the beds) were very comfortable. It was also very quiet. We loved seeing the sunset rise through the kitchen window every morning as well as sitting out on the lanai. The location was great and having access to the beach club was awesome.

Relaxing resort away from the crowd
We very much enjoyed our stay and were very comfortable in the unit. The pool and surrounding gardens are perfect. We are planning to return to Palm Villas in March but will only need a smaller unit as it will be just the two of us. The location is great. We like to walk and do not rent a car, so walking to the beach and grocery store are good exercise. I did look at the many reviews and was surprised that some of the concerns of previous renters had not been addressed. The carpet on the stairs is badly stained (not a good first impression) and the 2 mats on the kitchen floor and the one on the lanai have not been replaced as the owners had said they would do. A previous renter mentioned the there were some standard kitchen items missing. There were no measurisng cups and just a couple of measuring spoons. I contacted Scott and he had the items delivered within hours. We also had to call him about a few maintenance problems and he was quick to address the problems and very pleasant to deal with. The oven was filthy so I did turn on the oven cleaning option. A few items that would have been helpful with all the cooking we did would be a griddle for pancakes (we had to use a frying pan), a colander and a bin to spin lettuce. The woman below us (an owner) was so hostile. On our second day, as we were on our lanai, she came out on the lawn and in a nasty tone told us to "tell the kids to stop running around" We had only one kid...a 10 year old granddaughter who does not run around. We also heard her husband in a loud voice be very rude to a woman (who kept her cool) who came by to discuss some painting. And their dog was never on a leash, as required by the rule book. As a prevous owner of a vaccation home that we rented through VRBO in a resort, I hope you will not take offene at my suggestions. They would be easy fixes (except for the neighbor). I know personally that it isn't easy to maintain a rental when it is not close and I always appreciated a renters' suggestions.

Great location to begin our trip!
We enjoy staying a few nights on the Kohala coast before staying in Volcano Village for a week and then back to the Kohala coast for the remainder of our stay. This year we brought our two grandchildren to the Big Island. The condo was a perfect spot to acclimate them to snorkeling at Makaiwa Bay. It was convenient having the parking pass for the beach club. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub after a full day of snorkeling and walking around the fish ponds. The area is very quiet and peaceful. The condo is well equipped and tastefully decorated. The only drawback we found was that the lanai furniture quite large and heavy/noisy to move to use. We would stay here again.
