Rental Details
Property Overview
This stunning home offers the best of both worlds: the comfort of a spacious, private home and access to all of the facilities of the Mauna Kea and Hapuna resorts. All four bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms.
We have not furnished and equipped this as a "rental property", we've set it up to be the place we would want to stay in and not have to run to the store or wing it because we don't have a needed utensil, appliance etc.
Our kitchen features professional grade Viking stainless steel appliances, plenty of dishes, glasses, flatware, serving pieces etc., and a wine refrigerator. We have board games, books, beach towels and toys, coolers, snorkel gear, fast internet, and flat screen TVs with AppleTV in every room.
In addition, you will have access to private concierge services to facilitate every aspect of your trip, from purchasing groceries to stock the refrigerator before your arrival, to restaurant recommendations and reservations, and helping arrange activities throughout the island. Our local property manager is available to you 24x7 for any needs that might arise.
Staying in this house entitles you to full use of the amenities of the Mauna Kea resort for an additional fee set by the resort (currently $240/day which covers all guests, details below).
Championship golf, tennis, beaches, heated pools, restaurants, spas, fitness centers, shops, business center and valet parking are just some of the options available to you at both the Mauna Kea Beach Hotel and the Westin Hapuna Hotel with full signing privileges. The beautiful white sand beaches are consistently rated the best beaches in all of the Hawaiian islands. Swim, snorkel, boogie board, paddle surf, play in the sand, or relax on the hotel-provided lounge chairs under beach umbrellas. Or just hang out by the wonderful heated pool. Scuba diving, whale watching, shopping and farmer’s markets are all close.
Outside, enjoy the incredible views of the ocean, Maui, and breathtaking sunsets over the foreground golf course from the spacious lanai. Our pool is a 40’ saline infinity pool, which is heated *at no additional cost*, as is our hot tub.
If you are ready to leave the resort, great restaurants and shopping in Mauna Lani, Waikoloa, and Waimea are close by. Call me, I'd be happy to fill you in on our experience with the wonderful mix of luxury stores, stores, boutiques, art galleries, dining, farmers markets, dive spots, and the off-the-beaten-path local gems.

Guest Reviews
Reviews
The place was totally amazing. Great environment. Memorable views. Great location. Conveniences were perfect both within the house and in the area - especially with accesses to the Mauna Kea Resort/Westin Hapuna privileges. The hosts were great to work with. Diana and Kathleen were accessible, communicative, informative, helpful, pleasant, and accomodating from start to finish. They made it easy and delightful. Check in was simple and quick. The hosts met us at the home and walked us thru everything. The home was well provisioned with appliances and was very beautifully appointed. We had everything we needed from plates/dishes to beach/pool items including towels. The laundry and daily washing was easy given 2 washers and 2 dryers. Grounds were well maintained (mostly). We bought some items that we needed like an umbrella for the backyard (which we left for whomever comes here going forward). The home has modern entertainment in every room, books, tons of games, toys, and - as mentioned before - is loaded with every amenity. WiFi was speedy & strong everywhere.The 3 bedrooms Ohana suite 4 bathrooms were immaculate. The ample space accomodated 6 adults and 3 grandkids (ages 4-6) with zero problems and plenty of space. 2 indoor 1 outdoor eating areas... 3 gathering areas (1 outdoor) 6 outdoor lounge chairs... wonderful pool... made the stay easy and fun for all. Everyone loved the stay. Highly recommended this listing. WORTH IT!!!
Exceptional. What a lovely property. Check-in was a breeze. Beautiful pool with views and the house and kitchen is fully stocked with essentials. We were a party of 9 and each would be so happy to return to this property. I cannot say enough good things. Diana was easy to communicate with and Kathleen, the property manager, went above and beyond. We thoroughly enjoyed the sunset views every evening. It was a perfect family vacation.
Best VRBO we’ve ever had—beautiful house, pool, neighborhood.etc. Owner/managers were terrific, would stay here again in a heartbeat!
This is a great vacation rental. The house has everything necessary for a great holiday. The kitchen is really well equipped for cooking meals. The pool and sunset views are wonderful. The manager was very responsive and helpful in ensuring we had a great holiday.
This is a beautiful home with an absolutely stunning view. Well furnished and equipped. Owners/ property managers were extremely responsive and easy to work with. My family’s new favorite vacation spot.
Our extended family rented two homes in the Mauna Kea Residences for our recent December vacation, and it was a wonderful stay in all ways. This home was so comfortable and inviting; it was well-stocked, the pool was a highlight for grandparents all the way down to our youngest 3 year old, and the suite with separate entrance was very convenient for the family with young children. We enjoyed use of both the Hapuna and Mauna Kea resorts as well. There is so much to do and see on the big island, but you wouldn't need to leave this home or the resort to have a beautifully complete vacation.
It’s hard to overstate what a great property this is. We’ve stayed at other residences at Mauna Kea, but this was by far the best. The location of the house within the Mauna Kea resort allows for easy access to activities, but much needed privacy at the end of the day for our family to enjoy preparing a meal together then enjoying it on the lanai. If you like to cook, the property is well stocked with both cooking appliances/utensils and basic spices. There were also beach chairs for day trips to the beach, and lounge chairs to float in the pool. Diana, the owner, and Kathleen, the property manager, were incredibly responsive during the weeks leading up to the stay and during the stay itself. I use the word ‘experience’ in the title because this turned out to be more than just a vacation stay at a house. They sought feedback about what we needed after arriving, and asked for our ideas to improve the experience for future guests. Our party of 7 could not come up with a single thing we would change. We are big fans of adding the Mauna Kea Resort access option, but this property will make us rethink that for future stays since there is plenty of beach gear and the infinity pool was so inviting.
Excellent property with wonderful host. We would definitely stay here again.
This was one of the nicest houses we have stayed at on the big island. The pool/patio area was laid out very nice with plenty of move for everyone. The kitchen was well organized and stocked with items. House was very clean. Towels and bedding were very nice. We would definitely stay here again. Kathleen the property manager was a great help to us and even did some grocery shopping so we had a good start when we arrived.
Beautiful setting. Completely functional home. We had a retirement celebration with family.
