What others have said about their stay at the Island Dreams Villa:

"Mahalo for making your fabulous villa available to others -- we loved it from the minute we walked in the door. Well-appointed, spacious, thoughtfully decorated yet family friendly for parents who showed up with a wide-eyed two-year old (thanks for all the items that made this a truly "kid-friendly" home). It was a perfect location for enjoying the wonderful Kohala coast. Loved the access to the private beach (great snorkeling), the easy drive to the white sands of Hapuna beach, and proximity to shops, restaurants, and wonderful resort amenities. Our combo anniversary/Hawaii 5-0 birthday trip was a great success, and this was one of the most positive experiences we've had renting a vacation home." The Akers family, Redwood City, CA September 2009

"Julie, We had a perfect vacation. Your home is everything we hoped for: extra clean,great location to walk everywhere. Very quiet . All was organized for our comfort. We BBq'd on the lani, and enjoyed evenings with tropical breezes. THANK YOU . We will be back!" Rich and Judy Bruno, August 2009

"We have stayed in a variety of rental homes for our
vacations, and this one is definitely one of the best.
The quiet location was wonderful- a feature that is
extremely important to me. A rental home is so
much more relaxing than a hotel room. Although
we ate dinner out almost every night, having a meal
on your own is also a great option. The home itself
was incredibly clean and well organized. The
binder was a dream resource. Even though I have
been to the Big Island twice before, I found the
suggestions very helpful, especially for snorkelling.
The Big Island has so much to offer. We spent a
day on the Hilo side too. After all of our hiking &
snorkelling, we thoroughly enjoyed getting one of
those cabanas at the Fairmont Orchid for our last
day. Well worth the money for such a plush setup." Patricia Jones, CA

The nearest airport is Kona International at Keahole Airport (airport code is KOA.) Kona Airport is a 25 minute drive from the Mauna Lani. You can also fly into the opposite side of the island to Hilo International Airport (code ITO), but this airport is 75 miles away (about an hour and 45 minute drive.)
