Sun-Soaked Waikoloa Retreat w/ Private Lanai!

Reviews

• 2/5

  Great location, awesome views, clean unit but the owner put their profit ahead of our comfort which was unfortunate and which tarnished our 5-night stay. Their listing doesn't mention that they have restricted their AC to 72F daytime/74F nighttime. We thought it was reasonable to expect that we'd be able to adjust the temperature to our own personal comfort so we were disappointed when our request that the restriction be lifted was denied and no remedy was offered. It's also worth nothing that this rental does not include a local professional management company. The owners do provide you contact with their state-mandated on-island-representative, Tiffany, but she is not an employee of Evolve and admits that she is not able to provide services you might expect from a proper management company.

  Manager's Response:

  From the owner:
  “I’m really sorry to hear your stay didn’t feel as comfortable as you’d hoped. I was glad our local contact could help with an early check-in and stop by in person to adjust the ceiling fans for you. As she explained during your visit, the air conditioning can be set as low as 72°F, which is the standard recommendation in Hawaii and was set by our technician after previous system damage from colder settings. This helps keep the system working efficiently and ensures it’s reliable for every guest. With Hawaii’s warm afternoons and the home’s sunny ocean-facing views, keeping the shades drawn and windows closed during the heat of the day can make a big difference in keeping things cool inside. I really appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback — it helps me continue finding the right balance between caring for the home and making sure guests have a relaxing, comfortable experience.”

• The perfect find

  5/5

  We stayed here on our trip to the Big Island in mid June (2025). This place was perfect! Fully stocked kitchen, beach gear, & a nice welcome gift.

  The condo was clean, great furnishings, and well kept. We spent most of our evenings at the resort club eating dinner & watching the sunsets.

  Will be staying here again on our next trip.
