    My family (spouse, myself and 3 kiddos) - stayed at Janine & Andrew's lovely home for a week and it was perfect for us! From the cleanliness, amenities, well-stocked kitchen, location, and so much more - our stay at Villa Lava was absolute perfection. Janine was incredibly helpful and communicative our entire stay! We hope to be back in the future. Thank you for making our first visit to the Big Island as a family of 5 absolutely seamless!

    This property was perfect for our family of 5. Plenty of room and the best stocked kitchen we've ever seen! Ran into a little hiccup but the owner was quick to respond and solve the issue.

    This was a perfect property to explore Big Island and was exactly described in the listing. The use of the car park at the beach club was a real bonus. I would recommend staying here to anybody.

    This was an amazing place to stay! My wife was participating in the Ironman 70.3, and this place was a 15 minute walk to the location of the race. Another huge positive was having access to the Beach Club down the street. We couldn’t have been happier with this condo during our stay, and we definitely hope to stay here again when my wife races the half Ironman again!

    Look no further- this is the place! When we first booked our flights to Kona, I looked at all the hotels, various locations to stay, and many many many short term rentals. We finally landed on Villa Lava for the location and reviews. I’m excited to add another 5 star review to this property. Everything you need is here: kitchen is fully stocked, beach towels, so much beach gear, snorkels, wagon (perfect to load up for a day at the Mauna Lani beach club), along with small but meaningful things like a working bbq on the lanai, easy walk to the pool, comfy beds and pillows, top grade appliances, and owners that communicate easily. There are many condos in the area but we liked this one best for the close proximity to shops, but a smaller feeling- waking up to the birds, flowers, and trees everyday instead of seeing into our neighbors place is big for us. Having room to spread out, closets to unpack our things, and relaxing amenities is big for us. Receiving custom emails from an owner instead of automated messages is big for us. Communication was easy and the owners provide emails ahead of time to welcome you, prepare you, and help you find your way. We could not have had a better trip, and will absolutely book again.

    Our whole family loved our stay. The villa had everything you would need and was set up amazingly well for young kids - comfortable beds, great pool, good AC and reliable WiFi. The Beach Club down the road was a great place for snorkelling and beach time. Shops are close by for essentials. Janine was a great host and I can’t wait to book again! Thank you for sharing your home with us. O,J,S,M

    Our family of 4 loved this property so much! They do a great job of stocking it with everything you need (beach supplies, appliances, laundry detergent) so it makes it easy to travel light. The house is well maintained and has a lovely view of a garden. It’s also steps away from the community pool which was great for our two young kids. We were also impressed with the communication; the house came with a helpful manual as well as well labeled without being too intense. We would definitely stay here again!
