This property was even better than advertised. Spacious, clean and well-appointed. We loved the beach toys, chairs, snorkel gear, etc. The air conditioning was nice to cool off after long days in the sun- great location for day trips to other parts of the island.
This was likely the nicest VRBO in which we've ever stayed. The property was immaculate and exactly as described in the listing. Martin & Rachelle were great hosts and provided lots of tips on dining, shopping, and things to do. There was a gift basket upon our arrival with beers, chocolates, and chips! Everything in the property was well organized with labels and the beach chairs/towels were a nice perk. There were a few check out duties, but that is pretty typical with most VRBO's. We would strongly recommend!
We enjoyed our stay. Martin was very helpful. Location was great for what we wanted to do. Close to island gourmet for groceries. No issues being on the ground floor. Weâd stay here again.
This place was awesome! We felt so fortunate to stay in this place because it was beautiful. It was well maintained and the stickers were found in some places were good reminders how to use things. This place was also well stocked. The kitchen had everything we needed. The bedroom and bathrooms had enough towels and linens. The bed! It was firm which my back really appreciated. There were a lot of beach and pool things that were got to enjoy. They even had a cart to take to go to to the beach. The pool we enjoyed it very much. Lanai was a nice place to stay but had enough privacy. Location was great. It was near 2 plazas and just a drive to beautiful beaches and food. Martin was a great host. Definitely recommend to this place. Would love to come back.
Such a lovely relaxing condo. So well appointed and has absolutely everything one could need. I loved the homey feel of the place - not a sterile rental condo feel. The condo was exquisitely clean, quiet and perfect to unwind from a day of sightseeing; sipping wine on the lanai, planning our next day was heaven. We will absolutely stay here again.
My teen son, tween daughter and I spent seven days at this home at Shores at Waikaloa. The location was easy to access and very quiet. We opted for this property over a hotel because my son wanted some degree of separation which it definitely provides.Everything worked well â Door locks, HVAC, laundry, shower, coffee maker, DW. The bed was comfortable the towels were soft. The property had nearly everything we needed except for Kleenix and Qtips, but seriously everything else. There was a water filter in the fridge and fresh ice in the freezer. I really appreciated all the labels for the towels, sheets, laundry â so many of my questions were answered by having these little touches. There was also a thoughtful Welcome Gift with a great map of the local beaches. I felt like a lot of thought and care went into providing the best possible home away from home. Thank you for sharing your home with us, weâd gladly go back!
We had an amazing stay at this condo. It was clean, new, spacious and had all the amenities we needed. The location was excellent as the grounds were beautifully manicured with close access to the pool, exercise room, and walking distance to the beaches. The hosts were most helpful giving great ideas of activities, beaches to visit and places to eat. They also were prompt to any questions we had before and during our stay. This is a place we would stay in the future for how smoothly it all went.
Great location and the gated community is pristine. Kitchen was very well equipped. There were plenty of towels and bathroom necessities. Martin (owner) and Jennifer (local contact) were both very responsive to all our needs. The welcome basket was great. Nice and clean with so much attention to detail. A very positive experience!
This was our first time to the big island, and we loved where we stayed. Itâs a great location. Lots of things to do nearby a great starting point to see the island, very clean and well-stocked.
As described . Perfect for our family of four. Had to contact the property manager once and received instant response . Really appreciated . Would come back without hesitation .
We loved staying here and especially loved the lovely touches provided by the owner/manager: A welcome basket, plenty of beach gear and recommendations for fun. Would definitely stay here again! Mahalo!
Great owner communication on property details. Excellent location in relation to beach/hotels/shops. Peaceful property, very private. Excellent amenities. Will rent again
Communication was incredible and the owner was beyond helpful!! He gave us multiple recommendations for the island and we loved everything! The restaurants and activities were all great! This has by far been the best home we have stayed it. They made sure everything was perfect!
This place is beautiful, decor is upscale, furniture is comfortable, clean, high end cook ware, bath towels extra fluffy and soft. Great place and location. We would defininitely recommend this condo to friends and family and would love to stay here again.
We enjoyed our week at The Shores. This unit is very comfortably furnished and also well equipped, with pretty much everything anyone would need. The landscaping outside the lanai is beautiful. Easy walk to shops and restaurants.
My wife Rachelle and I fell in love with the Big Island 7 years ago. We wanted to make our condo a home. Everything from the decor to the amenities was carefully thought out so you could experience a vacation that would set it apart from any place you have ever stayed before. We love our home and try to stay there as often as possible. When we can't be there, we wanted our guests to have the same wonderful feeling of the paradise we are so blessed to have.
The location of "The Shores" is by far the most beautiful we have seen.The people are so warm and friendly.The beaches are amazing! There are countless things to do and explore.Great hikes to spectacular snorkeling.There is so much to see on the rest of the island from volcanoes, lava tubes to mushroom farms.
The location of our condo is perfect. It is a corner ground floor unit just steps away from the barbecue area and tennis courts. The pool, Jacuzzi ,fitness center and golf are about a 3 minute walk,while are spectacular beach is about a 10 minute walk. Of course you can always drive and its only a 2 minute drive.The unit has new hardwood floors,and furnishings. The high ceilings give it a very spacious feeling while the decor adds a lot of warmth. All to make you feel that you are home to enjoy some leisure time.
