Top Mauna Kea Beach Hotel Reviews

Oceanview Mauna Kea Luxury Villa - Private Pool & Spa - In-home Chefs Available

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect family location and the best way to enjoy two world class resorts. Access to Mauna Kea beach is fantastic and what i consider the best beach in the Hawaiian Islands. We'll be back."

Mauna Kea Beach Hotel, Autograph Collection

10/10 Excellent

"This is the best hotel that we have stayed at. The amenities, staff, rooms, the spa, the adult pool, the food, the beach…all 5 stars! Swam with manta rays and did the longest running luau that was well done. Have been coming here since the 80’s and it only keeps getting better. We love the Mauna Kea and the Big Island of Hawaii."

Incredible Oceanfront Family Suite on Hapuna Beach!

10/10 Excellent

"This condo is even more beautiful than the pictures! We were very comfortable in every aspect, and the beach was just a hallway away. We highly recommend every special detail."

Amazing Ocean Views, Wai' Ula Ula of Mauna Kea Resort "Beautiful Ocean Villa"

10/10 Excellent

"The condo was an exceptional place to stay. We only stayed 5 nights. There was a little snag in communication at the end as the cleaner entered the property before we left, and the call tonour phone was a little off-touch, but we were still thankful the host allowed us to extend our check-out due to our special needs. They are very accommodating, which we greatly appreciated. Before arrival, their communication was VERY thorough. Our stay was wonderful, so in the grand scheme it seemed like a very minor miss.As for the condo, the views of the Kohala range are expansive, which is very endearing, and the ocean views were wonderful too. Sunrises and sunsets - incredible!We frequent this side of the island often. Unfortunately, the price of the resort's amenity package continues to rise. I know the price of the condo's in the area are pretty comparable to this one. I just wish the resort would partner more with owners for rental guests on value. However, if you have a party of 5 or 6 it's probably worth it. 150 a day for 2, not so much.Overall, the property was clean and spacious, and the layout was just right. We are making early concessions for next year already. We will gladly stay here again if the ammenity package doesn't increase further. Otherwise, we might decide to look elsewhere to keep the amenities! Again, more than 2 people, this would be a wonderful fit!!"
