About this property

Moani Heights Mauna Kea Resort - Huge Pool, Sunsets Perfect for Family & Friends



  • When Laurance S.Rockefeller opened the Mauna Kea Resort in 1965, it was a new level of luxury for its hotel guests and now the guests of residential homeowners. Times have changed! At that time, Trent Jones Sr. was challenged to build a course on lava bluffs, but met that challenge and was honored by his son, Trent Jones Jr. decades later with an update to his father's design. Later, Arnold Palmer and Ed Seay stepped up to the task by creating an 18-hole course at The Hapuna Prince Beach Hotel now known as the Westin Hapuna Beach Resort, a part of the Mauna Kea Resort.


    Welcome to the Mauna Kea Resort!

    Enjoy this beautiful relaxing vacation home in the exclusive gated community of Moani Heights.  It is geared towards kids and family who are wanting to explore the Big Island and perhaps take advantage of purchasing resort access and amenities through the membership of the homeowner.

    This home offers a complete kitchen with updated cabinets, new applicances, granite counter tops, appliances and working desk to page through a local recipe book.  With ocean views from the kitchen, living room, and dining area, the lanai doors open to casual seating, lounge chairs for bathing, a BBQ and rattan dining set all flanked by a huge pool and hot tub. Heated pool and hot tub available at a daily fee.

    This 3 bedroom, 3 bath home is situated on an acre providing a grand presence within the neighborhood. Each master king (2) offers a private full bathroom with shower, soaking tub, private toilet room and walk-in closet. Step outside through the lanai doors where you will have a private lounge area or a straight line to the massive hot tub.

    The 3rd queen bedroom has an adjoining shower bathroom, and overlooks the entrance courtyard lined with plumeria trees. All bedrooms and two bathrooms were recently updated with new flooring.

    The spacious media room with its own stand-alone air conditioning is where the fun will be, leaving the formal living room for those who want quiet while watching the spectacular sun rise and sun sets! The media room sleeps an additional 2 people and is a great place for the kids! High ceilings, tile floors, ceiling fans, and a large flat screen TV with cable is where everyone will want to be at the end of the day. Plenty of books and games for the entire family!

    It is our sincere hope that you will build a tradition through the years, making the Mauna Kea Resort your home away from home through one generation after the other.

    Effective April 2024 to November 2024 the Mauna Kea will be enhancing their hotel. They are still open. Full beach and amenity access still prevails. The Westin Hapuna Golf Course remains open, while the Mauna Kea course is getting a make-over. Daily fees are published under house rules. Rates are updated annuallly.
