The Big Island is such a special place and this property allowed us to experience it fully. The views of Mauna Kea at sunrise and the ocean at sunset were priceless. This property was especially great for us because we had the space and flexibility of a home while also having the amenities of the Mauna Kea Beach Hotel within a short walking distance. The Villa had everything we needed and was very well taken care of. Also, Sarah the owner was so accommodating and helpful before and during our stay. We cannot wait to come back!! ##### Katy F.

We always stay at the Four Seasons and we really enjoyed the space this Villa provided us. Definitely purchase the resort pass - my husband played golf twice, we parked at the hotel, enjoyed using the hotels beach chairs and towels. We’ve been going to the Big Island for 25 years and we’ll definitely return the this Villa.

Villa 12 is an exceptional Villa. The Villa is a stunning, and comfortable home. The Villa is very well appointed with everything you might need. The walk to the hotel and beach is 5-7 minutes, very pleasant and a lovely walk. The Villa is perfect for families as well as couples given the layout. The indoor and outdoor furniture are very welcoming and comfortable – perfect for gatherings and enjoying one another’s company. Regardless if you are having a working vacation or a true vacation, there are comfortable seating areas for everyone to achieve the holiday they are looking for. The location is ideal, extremely private and quiet, and the sunsets are right off the deck, and are a perfect way to end the day. We have been to this Villa many times and look forward to returning again. ##### zahra m. Stayed 1 night in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dave M.

Aug 28, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful property, excellent accommodations Very spacious, well appointed, and comfortable 2bd 2 1/2 bath condo with private pool and spa and a lovely view. Mauna Kea resort, a short walk from the condo, is quite beautiful and has one of the best beaches in Hawaii if not the world. Reasonably close (15 min drive) to Waimea for restaurants and in the sunniest part of the island. Having to pick up the (additional fee) parking/resort access pass at the residents service office at the adjoining hotel (Westin Hapuna) was a minor inconvenience but it gives you free run of both properties and you don't have to explain yourself to the guards at the front gate every time you return to the resort. The property manager, Alexis, was very helpful and proactive when Spectrum had a short Internet outage, forwarding the messages from Spectrum about the outage. Highest recommendation and would definitely stay again. ##### David C. Stayed 9 nights in Aug 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### sterling R.

It served as headquarters and Sawyer family home central for our five-week exploration of the Big Island. Sarah, the owner, was always professional and responsive in our talks before we signed our lease. The few times we needed to reach out for a little help, Alexis, the villa manager was likewise professional and responsive. The home itself was beautifully yet comfortably appointed. It exuded a classic Hawaiian spirit of understated elegance, just like the Mauna Kea hotel does. Might it be the ghost of Laurence Rockefeller? The pool was a delight on sunny afternoons when we returned from the beach. It even had a pool table for Minnesota Fats aficionados! If you believe in the mantra “location-location-location,” this is the place to be. We wanted for nothing. ##### Murray S. Stayed 35 nights in Jan 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mary H.

Probably enjoyed all the amenities more than many of your visitors since we had to spend 6 of the 14 days house bound due to the horrendous winds. Beautiful decorations, fully equipped kitchen and a view to end all views. Alexis was extremely helpful and friendly. Only suggestion I have is it would have been nice to have more seating outside. The lounges were comfortable to lie flat on but would have liked to have comfortable chairs to sit out on or lounges that had different positions. All in all a wonderful experience. ##### Mary H.

The layout is excellent with two masters at either end of the unit, each with individual baths. Lots of interesting stereo equipment, but no instructions on how to use this equipment. The unit is dated and there are better villas at more competitive rates. Shop around. The property manager was outstanding and very helpful. ##### Doug C.
