Elegant Wai'ula'ula Villa - Designer Furnishings and Double Lanai!

the grounds-well kept We could not have been more pleased with the accommodations. Every minute detail concerning daily life seemed at our fingertips! The home was fantastic in every way. The views…breathtaking…the pool…the spa…wonderful…the grounds-well kept. The perfect experience in all aspects!!

Just back from a wonderful three week stay. Our villa was perfect for the four of us. Really appreciated the two master bedrooms which provided all the amenities, but also welcomed privacy. Spent the bulk of our time outside by the pool & hot tub with wonderful views of the Pacific. Unit was well stocked with everything required, most especially the kitchen. It was nice to have access to both nearby hotels (albeit a fairly pricy add-on). The management company was super helpful, offering a painless checkin and clear instructions. We very much look forward to a return visit in the near future.

The property was splendid! It had everything- beautiful views, quiet, beautiful well appointed home, easy access to the Westin. We loved it!

On the plus side, the home is beautifully designed on the inside with a spacious family room/living room/kitchen with a large subzero freezer/refrigerator and huge central island --- perfect for a family that enjoys cooking, eating and being together. The two master bedrooms and adjoining bathrooms are also spacious and comfortable. The lanai with hot tub and adjoining pool enjoy great privacy, beautiful views, and the outdoor television is a real plus. The gated community is also very safe, secure and well maintained by a large number of gardening staff. There is a terrific community club house that includes a modern gym and nice pool. A golf course winds its way through and around the gated community and provides much of the nearby scenery. Unfortunately, there were minuses. When we arrived on day 1 following our long flight, car rental and drive, we could not enter the gated community because we had been given the wrong passcode to the gate. This was enormously frustrating because no one answered the phone at property management and we had to sit in our car for several hours before we were able to persuade a homeowner to let us in. The home itself is not free-standing but rather it is a part of a duplex that shares a wall and driveway with another home. Advertised as having 3,500 sq feet, but in fact, it’s closer to 2,500 sq feet (indoors) and this should be corrected. The garage was locked and inaccessible, so we had to park our car in the driveway, and there was no room to turn around. In fact, there were several occasions when we could not move our car in or out because of parked cars from the neighbor! The internet was strong in the living/dining room but spotty in the bedrooms. Perhaps the most disruptive and anxiety-provoking problem we encountered was on the morning of day #4 when all of a sudden all 4 toilets wouldn’t/couldn’t flush and two started overflowing. We contacted the property manager who reached RotoRooter, and although it took 4-5 hours for the truck to arrive, the serviceman was able to fix the problem by clearing out the outside drainage line, which he speculated may have been invaded by plant roots. Despite these problems, overall we still had a great time in a home with many positives but a few negatives.
