Private Kona Villa, Pano Ocean Views! Walk to Magic Sands, Private Pool & Spa

Aloha T & P, We just received your 3-Star guest review regarding your August stay, and, thank you for all of the great highlights you mentioned about Falling Waters Kona ... as we make every effort to prepare our villa home so to exceed our guests most common expectations and more ... In regards, to your remarks about the extraordinary Tropical Heat Wave, and unusual Hurricane and Typhoon weather patterns, caused by El Nino, that has continued into this month of October ... has set new records in Hawaii, with the latest weather projections indicating that it will continue forward ... We, agree with you that the high heat and humidity was relentless, and we all suffered especially at night. This 2026 Tropical Heat Wave, Hurricane and Typhoon weather patterns, has been extraordinary unusual, compared to the past 15 to 20 years; and may be considered “an act of God” event. Thus, we have no control over any type of weather patterns. In regards, to your remarks about our villa home not having air conditioning (A/C), well, that is/was covered in our Vrbo landing page, in the description titled, “About This Property”, as discussed specifically in the “our 2025 TOP 3 most popular traveler Q&A’s” section, as noted below. ◉ Does the home have central A/C? About 90% of VR's in Kona do Not offer central A/C, for a number of good reasons. So, it’s also possible that you may have simply overlooked this 2025 TOP 3 most popular traveler Q&A's section. However, you did have from June 2025 to August 2026 to ask for more detail’s, clarifications, or, new information. Our motto has always been - Please feel free to ask any questions, or, to request any additional hosting or travel information. MGM

Aloha Russ, zunächst einmal ein dickes Kahuna. Herzlichen Glückwunsch zu deiner Leistung beim Kona IronMan Race ... Du und deine Familie sind hier jederzeit herzlich willkommen. Darüber hinaus danken wir dir und deiner Familie sehr dafür, dass du dich so hervorragend um unsere Villa und unser Grundstück gekümmert hast. Wir freuen uns, dass du mit FWK, unserer Nähe zum Dorf Kona, dem Einkaufszentrum Keauhou, Restaurants, den Stränden Magic Sands und Kahalu’u sowie den Parks zufrieden warst, und freuen uns auf deine Rückkehr im Jahr 2026. Michael

Aloha L, thank you for taking the time to provide us with such happy feedback. We are also delighted to hear that we exceeded your expectations, as did our centralized location ... Our central Kona-Keauhou location of our villa home is one of our key features, and with an overall feeling of a Sanctuary is really tough to beat. We are thrilled that you enjoyed a slice of Paradise ... with super easy access to Magic Sands beaches and parks. As far as our Pre-Arrival Check-In processing, it is a Formal Process, as stated in our Property Description, with updated Guests home and property policy’s, rental agreement, Guest Internet access, Parking detail’s, local activity's, etc. Your feedback is important to us, and, we are currently testing several methods so to streamline our check-in processing further. Our Regular Check-out process - is straight-forward for those who are leaving before 12 noon, with just some minor household tasks requested, if possible. There are no fee's, if you contact us on same day to request some additional time, or, there was a flight delay, etc. Our Late Check-out process - our brochure on-site describes in more detail, which household tasks are required, since a Pre-approved late check-out request extends into a whole day, and, up to 9 PM. Maintaining communication with your Local Host is an essential cornerstone, without question. This is most likely what you were referring to in your review, but, it did not apply to you, since you had a Regular Check-out time frame, and you did not request a late check-out time. Communication - between Guest’s and your Local Host, is a 24/7 open channel, that most of our former guests have taken advantage of, and we encourage it, before, during, and after your stay ... In regards, to your remarks about the extraordinary Tropical Heat Wave, (and unusual Hurricane and Typhoon weather patterns), caused by El Nino, that has continued into this month of October ... has set new records in Hawaii, with the latest weather projections indicating that it will continue forward ... We, agree with you that the high heat and humidity was relentless, and we all suffered especially at night. This 2026 Tropical Heat Wave, Hurricane and Typhoon weather patterns, has been extraordinary unusual, compared to the past 15 to 20 years; thus, we have no control over any type of weather patterns. However, your feedback about our Villa is important to us, and we thank you for listing your favorite highlights ... We strive to provide more of a Sanctuary ambience, that offers a Comfortable, Peaceful, and Quality experience. There's nothing better than hearing we have succeeded. Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience with us ... We hope we have the opportunity to host your next trip to the Big Island ... Mahalo, MGM

Ja, diese unterhaltsame Gruppe von Reisenden war ...

Aloha Gina & Dave, thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback, from during your 11-night/12-day stay. We're delighted to hear that we exceeded your expectations, as did our centralized Kona-Keauhou location. One of the traditions that we have maintained over the years since 2000, is a "meet n' greet" upon our new guests arrival, and prior to the COVID-19 Pandemic, it was a much more easier process in 2019, than during 2021 and beyond. We were so glad that one of our driveways that had been undergoing a major re-construction phase, was just completed upon your arrival, so you and your family were the very first guest family to utilize this new feature. Our Villa's Amenities - we currently list over 100 item's and features, and we certainly appreciate whenever our guest's go out of their way to replace a beach or pool item, although not necessary, it's still a 'Live Aloha' gesture. Again, we're happy your 2 families were pleased with the property and look forward to your return. Aloha nui loa!

Hallo Michael und Familie, wir freuen uns, dass Sie und Ihre Familie Ihren Aufenthalt bei uns genossen haben. Und ein großes Dankeschön an Sie alle, dass Sie so freundlich und geduldig waren, als es in letzter Minute ein Problem mit Küchengeräten gab, und wir entschuldigen uns für diese und alle anderen Unannehmlichkeiten. Die zentrale Lage unserer Villa ist kaum zu übertreffen ... mit super einfachem Zugang zu den Stränden, Parks und dem Keauhou-Einkaufszentrum von Magic Sands. Ihr Feedback zu unserer Villa ist uns wichtig und wir danken Ihnen für die Auflistung Ihrer Lieblingshighlights ... Wir hoffen, dass Sie und Ihre Familie wiederkommen ... denn Ihre Familie ist bei uns jederzeit herzlich willkommen. MGM.

E’ Komo’ Mai’ ... A Big Welcome to our Canadian friends, and especially those who traveled all the way from Nova Scotia!

For the benefit to all future guests, prior to this review it should be noted that within the past year of 2022 January to April 2023 cycle, we received all UN-solicited 5-Star guest reviews; from across different demographic groups and State locations. During this cycle, we have also appreciated receiving friends and family referral’s, Hello L.Karen, when you stated that you lived in Napa valley, had homes in Eureka, and also owned three home rental’s, we thought that you would appreciate our owner and PM fiduciary VR responsibilities, while navigating the ever growing and new Hospitality Legislative standards, set by the county, and state of Hawaii. Bi-lateral communication is a cornerstone in our VR business model, and it’s obvious that one-way communication is a sign of failure usually on the one side with flexing. Our total number of guests policy, is that upon check-in the same number should match your initial booking up to the maximum of ten. It goes without saying that if you booked eight, but, add two or three people; there will be extra fee's. No one should feel confused , nor, surprised by it, since it's listed in our property description, and in other documents. Sometimes, an inappropriate display of projected entitlement is the most simple explanation for an event or situation. Lastly, the evidence that your family left on departure day, markedly contradicts your one-line review as by your lovely remarks in your hand-written letter, and in the Thank You card, that was left in our beautiful Villa. Your Happy exclamatory remark’s about your stay in the letter and Thank You card that included the following ... “Mahalo for your beautiful home ❤️” , “Thanks for allowing our family to enjoy your Kona paradise home” ❤️ , “Thank you” , “We appreciate your gracious accommodations & idea’s”. Signed by the K & M families ... Compared to our past happy, exuberant guest families, there are times when we will absolutely dismiss any conduct of gross disrespectful of our Hawaiian traditions. Aloha, MGM .
