Home away from home!

Everything was perfect! The views overlooking the golf course and the ocean made for enjoyable cups of coffee and sunset cocktails! It was clean, the kitchen was well stocked with everything you need. We had an Instacart of groceries delivered. Having access to the Mauna Kea property was a plus. Communication with Polly was fantastic. We will definitely be back!

Beautiful location and comfortable stay

We very much enjoyed our stay. Fantastic location within the Mauna Kea Resort, we also paid for access to the resort facilities, which was worth it for our family. It was the best of both worlds, comforts of a larger place to stay, while enjoying resort amenities. Beds were very comfortable and the view is amazing. It was a treat to stay here.

Access to Mauna Kea and Hapuna Beach

We loved our week in Hawaii! We chose to stay in this area because of the resort access pass that we could purchase for Mauna Kea and The Westin Hapuna Beach Resort. It was great being so close to these beaches!The condo was spacious and clean. Beds were comfortable. The property manager checked in with us during our stay and was very responsive. The views from the lanai were stunning.There are no grills in the unit nor on the property anywhere due to new insurance mandates.

Amazing view, quiet location, close to incredible beaches and snorkeling. We love Mauna Kea!

Well appointed kitchen, spacious living area, comfortable beds. Quiet at night but close enough to Mauna Lani and Waikoloa for shopping and restaurants. We were at Hapuna Beach each day and explored many great snorkeling beaches. Mauna Kea cannot be beat!
