About this property

FREE Auberge/Mauna Lani Fitness Club Access @ this nearby Palm Villas Condo

E KOMO MAI TO THE PALM VILLAS
This 2BR/2Bath ground-floor Palm Villas unit is private and secluded, surrounded by 6 acres of lush landscaping. As our guest you will have full access to the Auberge/Mauna Lani Fitness Center, located across the street. Play tennis and pickleball, work out, or swim in the 25M pool. You also have access to the private Beach Club and Napua restaurant. A nature trail and ancient fishponds are also steps away. Nearby Foodland Farms offers a gourmet selection of meat, fish, baked goods, liquor and wine.

OUR HOME
Primary Bedroom has a Cal. King bed with Tempur-Pedic mattress, and an "en suite" bathroom with tub and shower. Guest Bedroom has two XL Twin Beds with memory foam mattresses. Fully equipped kitchen with stainless steel appliances, and the fridge has filtered water and makes plenty of ice. The Living Room has a comfortable sofa and armchair to relax and plan your Big Island adventures. Beautiful, lush gardens are off the front and back lanais. Fast WiFi and a 64” LG OLED TV with Netflix, HBO Max, Apple TV, Showtime, Hulu, and Amazon Prime and Spectrum Silver cable channels. Connect your iPhone or Android via Bluetooth to an Amazon Echo to stream your music, or use our free Apple Music account. 100% cotton sheets and towels. Beach chairs, Boogie boards, bamboo mats and snorkel gear available in the garage. There’s a great Delta Heat BBQ outside on our back lanai for grilling your Big Island beef or local fresh fish.

AUBERGE FITNESS CENTER & TENNIS COURTS
A unique privilege just for you. As our guest you will have full access to Auberge Hotel's Fitness Center and Tennis Courts, conveniently located directly across the street from the Palm Villas.

Play tennis and pickleball, swim laps in the beautiful 25 meter 3-lane pool, or work out in the fully equipped gym with machines and free weights. You can use the Club’s new top-of-the-line “Head” tennis rackets and “Selkirk” pickleball paddles.

Currently, we are the only rental condo at Palm Villas that is offering this privilege. Other units may advertise that you have "access" but you would have to pay $700/week for a family of 4. However, if you rent our condo, guest access is included for free. Private tennis lessons, clinics, round-robins, exercise classes and spa treatments are extra.

Please also note that his privilege is only for the renters of our unit and is non-transferable to others. Admission to the Fitness Center is for a maximum of 4 guests only.

MAUNA LANI RESIDENTS BEACH CLUB
Guests will also have a Beach Access Card which allows them to park one vehicle in the private lot at the Mauna Lani Residents Beach Club - making going to the beach most convenient. As our guest you are welcome to use the chaise lounges and cabanas on the beach, and to have lunch and dinner at Napua restaurant overlooking Maka`iwa Bay. (Reservations highly suggested for dinner.)

Maka`iwa beach has easy entry with great snorkeling. From our condo you can also walk to the Beach Club via a paved trail that goes through a nature preserve with lava tubes and petroglyphs, then meanders through shady, ancient fishponds until you end up at Maka`iwa Bay. It takes about 20 minutes and is a very easy hike - it is also a great for an early morning jog or a lovely sunset stroll.

THE SHOPS AT MAUNA LANI
Foodland Farms, Tommy Bahamas and other stores are also about a 20 minute walk up the hill to the Shops at Mauna Lani. Foodland Farms has an excellent wine and liquor selection, prosciutto di Parma and other delicacies, and imported cheeses and pates. They also also offer a good selection of prepared foods, sandwiches and sushi, and the fish and meat counter makes excellent fresh poke every day.

Snorkel Bob's is also a great place to rent snorkeling gear for your stay. We do have some snorkel gear in the garage -- but we strongly recommend that you let Snorkel Bob's properly fit your mask and fins. There is nothing worse than a leaky mask, and fins that are too tight or too loose. They will set you up with high quality gear that fits well so you have a great experience in the ocean.

Everything you need for a relaxing vacation is at your fingertips when you stay at Hale Malino.

PLEASE NOTE: The pool & spa inside the Palm Villas will be CLOSED from September 27 - 30, 2026 for maintenance.

Wonderful time at Palm Villas

Overall we had a wonderful time in this condo. The fitness center access was key, as was the beach club. The condo was stocked with everything we could need for our vacation and was very well maintained. We love staying on the property of the Mauna Lani with the fish ponds and walking paths, and the golf courses are great.

Airy and comfortable condo outfitted with everything you need. Full kitchen, pool and beach access, garage space, in addition to beach items, bathroom and kitchen basics. I was in town for a conference at the Fairmont and this was a 20-25min walk or several minute drive away. Less than 30 minute drive to Waimea for great food in the evenings, and we had awesome recommendations from Greg and Jeff, who are friendly and responsive hosts!!

Beautiful Palm Villas

We had an excellent Hawaii vacation at Palm Villas. The location was perfect for our family reunion. (Our children and grandkids stayed at a larger unit across the street) Our condo and the grounds were exactly as depicted. The pool is beautiful and close by. The condo was wonderfully decorated, spotlessly clean, and well equipped. Our hosts, Greg and Jeff, were attentive and welcoming thru the whole process.

Great spot - Attentive Owners

I rented the unit for some friends, so while I saw the until, I did not actually stay there. It's clean, well equipped and a great central location on the resort. Gregory and Jeff are great hosts. Always got right back to me with answers and tried to help wherever they could. They know the Island well and have many great recommendations. We'd certainly use this space again.

A Private Oasis

Our stay was perfect! Greg and Jeff’s condo was beautifully furnished and well kept. They were very responsive to any questions we had and always very friendly and informative. The Palm Villas was quiet and beautiful. There were times we had the pool all to ourselves. On our first night there a neighbour brought us some fresh fruit from the trees growing on the property. Having access to the beach club and the fitness centre was an added bonus. We loved every moment and would not hesitate to rebook!

Great condo and very well stocked and equipped with everything you need.

The property and location are PERFECT!!! We LOVED having access to the fitness center and played LOTS of pickle ball. Some furnishings could be upgraded due to lots of wear, as well as one of the single mattresses. However, honestly, it was all still great!!! The cleaning crew could get in the corners/along floor trim a bit better but again, it did not take away from a GREAT, GREAT, GREAT day. Gregg was GREAT to communicate with!!!

A joy to return

What a joy it was to return to Hale Malino this year. Honestly, I don’t know how it could be better than my first experience, but the hosts have been busy adding more and more thoughtful touches and upgrades. The tv is even bigger, and the fitness center membership was really easy to use and fun. Everything was spotless, well-organized, and we lacked for nothing. The kitchen is so well stocked, and I appreciated the spices and fresh, well curated condiments. It saved money, made it fun to cook, and reduced food waste. The hosts are welcoming, kind, and very responsive, and their communication is top notch. Mahalo!

Standout Mauna Lani Rental

This was our 12th time renting a condo at Mauna Lani, and the personal attention of the owners of this unit set it apart from the rest. The condo itself is wonderfully comfortable - the beds, fully stocked kitchen with abundant dishes and flatware (some rentals have just 6 of each), crisp and soft sheets, a garage stocked with every item needed at the beach (we've stayed in some with just a single frayed beach chair and nothing else), an impressively large living room TV that was easy to use - plus TVs in both bedrooms, an Amazon Echo for music, an honor bar, every supply needed, and a tremendous library. Access to the Auberge fitness center is a big bonus that most rentals don't have. The condo was very clean. The owners' binder is the best of any rental we've stayed in, with photos and detailed descriptions about restaurants and things to do and see, in addition to clear instructions about all aspects of the condo. The owners clearly care about their rental, and it reflects in the guest experience. Thank you! We hope to return.

An amazing place to stay while exploring an amazing place!

We cannot say enough good things about this property. It was above our expectations and everything was perfect. The place made us feel at home with all the comforts and then some. We felt special staying there, and felt lucky to be able call it home for a few days. Not only is the condo perfect, the grounds and the common areas are just as nice. The pool area was amazing, with the rocks and water falls. Also having access to the fitness centre was an unexpected perk. We had access to the Pickle Ball and tennis courts and made the most of it one evening. The exclusive beach club was also unexpected. A beautiful beach on a calm bay with snorkeling and swimming in the warm water. The restaurant there was delicious and the drinks were incredible (get the Pina Colada with the dark rum pour over! But you may not be able to get out of your beach chair after!!) If you are thinking about renting this place, do not hesitate, it made for a truly spectacular vacation to the Big Island and we hope to be back again one day!

Attention to detail in a gorgeous setting

You can stop surfing now and just book this unit in the Palm Villas. The location, the hosts, and the attention to detail make this unit a perfect spot. This spotlessly clean modern first-floor unit is a 20 minute walk from a gorgeous beach or a quick drive. The lush landscaping makes it feel like you are the only ones in the area, even though the pool and fitness center are steps away. The decor is modern, and all of the furniture is comfortable. And there are books! From helpful travel guides to multiple field guides (everything from trees to fish) in which you can learn more about the island and what you see. Like to cook? The lanai has a fan, light, and modern gas grill. The kitchen is stocked with all manner of cookware and barware, and the fridge and pantry have a thoughtfully curated selection of basics, condiments, and spices. Nothing expired here. It's one of the best stocked VRBOs I've stayed in (soy sauce, kewpie mayo, plenty of Ziplocs, a tea ball, and more and more and more) The hosts genuinely care about the guests' experience and are very communicative and organized. It felt like staying in the home of a friend, and I cannot wait to go back.

Best Rental Ever

Gregory has created a superb condo and vacation experience at the Palm Villas. Everything exceeded our expectations. Beds and linens were comfortable, kitchen was more than well stocked, if you end up watching TV even though you should be enjoying Hawaii like we did--the World Cup was happening!--the little living room space has a giant new TV and cozy coach and chair. ALL supplies are stocked with backups ready and waiting should you run out. The internet was fast enough for both my husband and I to work, including video meetings. It has a secluded lanai and great BBQ, and to top it all off, a well stocked bar! A lot of love and thought went into this rental and you can tell. Gregory has also put together a helpful guidebook that's informative and hilarious. I will admit I took pictures of it so I could refer back to it after we left. The placement of his unit within the Plam Villas complex, we thought, was the best, surrounded by quiet gardens vs a window into your neighbors place. The Palm Villas itself is a cute, smaller, well-maintained complex, across the street from the Mauna Lani fitness club, for which Gregory provides free guest passes. They have a 25 meter pool, workout facility and tennis and pickleball courts. Need I say more? We will for sure be returning! Thank you!

About the host

Hosted by Gregory Keller

Host profile image
I'm a theater and opera director who has worked at the Metropolitan Opera for over 27 years. I have semi-retired, and now live with my husband at Mauna Lani and we enjoy tennis, paddle boarding, canoeing and Scuba diving.

Why they chose this property

The Palm Villas are located in the center of Mauna Lani resort. You can walk to the beach in 20 minutes, or you can drive and park in the private lot at the Beach Club. Our condo is tucked away in the corner of the Palm Villas, making it feel very private and secluded. Our building's "front yard" has beautiful apple-banana, mango and papaya trees, and we share the organic, pesticide-free fruit with our guests when it's ripe.

What makes this property unique

Mauna Lani is one of the most beautiful, elegant and understated resorts on the Kohala Coast. Waikoloa Beach resort, 2 miles south, has a large shopping mall, movie theaters and is very crowded with large families. Mauna Kea resort to the north is beautiful, but the resort is split across the Queen K highway and offers little sense of community and feels like a big hotel. Mauna Lani is a true community of residents and guests, where people walk on the street, ride bikes and bump into each other at the Beach Club or the gourmet market. The ancient fishponds are one of the most magical spots on this island. And if you want to visit some of the world's most beautiful beaches, there are numerous ones with 20 minutes north and south of Mauna Lani.
