About this property
Summary:
Pack the beach chairs and umbrellas, make the five-minute drive to Pauoa Bay, then come home to a generous lanai and the quiet of gated Kulalani. This two-story, three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath townhome sleeps six and gives a family real room to spread out across 1,913 square feet. Your stay includes access to the private Mauna Lani Beach Club, plus the community's all-ages pool, adults-only pool, and covered gathering building. The Mauna Lani Resort is nearby for championship golf, a spa day, and the Shops at Mauna Lani. Bicycles, beach toys, chairs, umbrellas, and water gear help you make the most of the Kohala Coast. Back home, gather around the grill on the expansive lanai after dinner from the renovated kitchen. This is the Big Island stay for a family or friends who want beach access, resort amenities, and a comfortable place to truly settle in. Air conditioning is provided.
The Space:
Towering ceilings and updated floors make this 1,913-square-foot townhome feel airy and relaxed. The renovated kitchen has granite counters, a tile backsplash, a dining table for six, and a bar for two. Three bedrooms and two and a half baths sleep six, with a desk nook for catching up if needed. The private lanai and outdoor grill create a natural second living space for long Kohala Coast evenings.
Guest Access:
Guests at Kulalani at Mauna Lani enjoy access to the gated community's shared pool and hot tub, along with a garage and bikes available for exploring the grounds. The beach is close by, and a garden or backyard area adds room to relax outside. It is a well-equipped, peaceful base on the Big Island's Kohala Coast.
The Neighborhood:
Kulalani is inside the Mauna Lani Resort on the Kohala Coast, where pale sand, black lava landscapes, and wide-open sunny weather set a slower Big Island rhythm. Pauoa Bay is about five minutes away for a beach day, and Mauna Lani Beach Club access adds another easy shoreline option. The Shops at Mauna Lani cover groceries, dining, and errands, while nearby golf and spa offerings give adults plenty of ways to recharge. It is a polished but family-friendly resort area with space to breathe.
Getting Around:
Kona International Airport is about 30 to 40 minutes away, depending on traffic. A rental car is recommended for reaching Mauna Lani's beaches, shops, golf, and restaurants, as well as exploring the Kohala Coast. The community has parking, and the Shops at Mauna Lani are a short drive from the home.
Other Things to Note:
Parking: one vehicle space is provided (additional parking is available throughout the complex).

Overall the place lived up to the billing.Very convenient location. Amenities are superb.Enjoyed our stay.
Spacious, clean, all in order.
Everything about this property exceeded expectation. There were 3 of us staying at the home and we all had to work in the mornings. Plenty of space to work and the wi fi worked daily. Everything we needed was provided. The hair dryer in the master did not work and a replacement was delivered so quickly. Fabulous patio space was very comfortable.
This was a beautiful, clean and very spacious townhome. We had a wonderful stay! The pool area was very nice and very close to this unit. It was a short drive to the Mauna Lani beach club area which had chairs for use and a nice restaurant. There were plenty of beach supplies in the townhome including snorkeling equipment , boogie boards, ice chest and beach towels. There was also a grocery store and restaurants about a mile away which was convenient.
Well appointed quiet townhouse, very much appreciated the responsiveness and flexibility of the Vacasa team!
Beautiful home in a wonderful location! Close to the pool and work out facility. Nicely furnished with additional beach supplies! Loved our time!
We had a great stay, easy walk to the pool and only 0.5 mile walk to the store. Gym facility was really nice.
I don't normally write reviews but wanted to comment on this property. Pros: Location near the pool (nice pools), gated community, snorkel gear and beach chairs in the garage. Cons: Check in. After a long day of travel, the gate code did not work. We called and were given 4 different codes over several hours. Finally, got one to work. Ice maker and water in fridge did not work. BBQ ignitor did not work. Garage door did not work on multiple occasions. Several lightbulbs out. Towels were in the dryer when we arrived. Owners closet left open. Only 2 dish towels. No cleaning products (such as Windex) for quick cleans as we stayed 9 days. Way too much patio furniture, it was hard to even get to the BBQ. Too many artificial plants and nick nacks collecting dust. No smart TV in the main living area to watch Netflix, etc. Old pillows, thin comforters and a very dated quilt on the master bed (we had to remove it as it didn't appear to be washed). Overall, a very dated place and the service to get a hold of someone was a long process. We would stay at the community again, but not at this unit.
The unit was clean, well appointed and perfect for the 5 of us but the real bonuses were the proximity to the 2 outdoor pools and access to the nearby private beach.
Everything was great!
