Rooms will be unavailable until completion which is targeted for spring 2025.
-new construction of a spa and adult pool area behind the Buddha statue
-upgrading the existing pool area and relocation of hot tub once the adult pool area is finished
-upgrades to the Hau Tree bar, restaurant, and kitchen. Kitchen will be closed for a period of time but other onsite cooking facilities will be utilized.
-closure of the Mauna Kea golf course with remodel focusing on the greens and bunkers.
-relocation of fitness center around the lower courtyard of the hotel

We will provide updates as they become available.

Good oprion for Mauna Kea beach
We choose the location for the resort access, loved the Mauna Kea beach. The price is high compared to other locations but less expensive than the hotel. Must have a car, it is over 1 mile drive to the beach. The ocean views from this 2nd floor condo are excellent, beautiful sunsets. It is on a golf course, so expect some noise from the landscape maintenance. Inside the unit not so good. Aged furniture. Cheap mattress. Very short beds in the second bedroom. Our friends are 5'3"-5'6", if you are tall expect your feet to go over the edge. Several things that need repairs that were not done before our check in: kitchen window screen bended, chips in the kitchen pocelain floor, scratches on the kitchen sink. Cleanliness- kitchen countertop tiles grout need deeper cleaning, balcony floor had some marks, balcony ceiling fans were not wiped probably ever. If the owners take care of these issues I would return in a heartbeat.

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.

Perfect Stay in Paradise at this Awesome Property
We loved this property! The hosts clearly have pride of ownership and strive to provide a memorable experience for their guests. First, there is an absolutely beautiful ocean view. So nice to enjoy it on the patio with a glass of wine. The home is very nicely decorated, with high quality mattresses. The kitchen was quite well stocked with an abundance of cutlery, dishware, pans, glassware. There was even a waffle iron! The furniture inside and outside was very comfortable, and the air conditioning worked like a dream. We elected to purchase the Mauna Kea guest membership and used it at the Westin almost every day. We enjoyed our last dinner at Mauna Kea and saw the manta rays down by the beach afterwards. I would give this property my highest recommendation.

Best Beach in the World!
Some say Mauna Kea is the best beach in Hawaii - maybe the world! The stay was amazing, and having access to the Mauna Kea beach club was so fun! All the activities are included with the beach club fee, so all of us were able to snorkel, paddle board, kayak and more! It was fantastic to have access to the 6 restaurants at the two connected hotels, and the new wellness center at the Hapuna was amazing! The condo was fantastic and had everything we needed. It is on the top (2nd) floor so it has great ocean and golf course views. The home was very cozy and had everything you need. We cooked a few nights and there is a grill and great deck. It was so much better than staying at the hotel because we had space to hang out, but still had access to both hotels.

The most fabulous vacation rental ever!
We just returned from a weeklong stay at this beautiful condo. We have stayed in many nice vacation rentals over the years and this is hands-down the best one we have ever rented. The photos do not begin to do it justice. It is beautifully furnished, has absolutely stunning views, has a huge lanai with beautiful, high-quality furniture, and no detail is overlooked. The kitchen is incredibly well stocked and there are other thoughtful items like beach towels & boogie boards to use. And the beds are so comfortable! Its also incredibly spacious & there was more than enough space for my husband, teenage son, & myself. We felt so fortunate to stay and Eric and Polly’s beautiful home. And we cannot wait to come back!

Family Gathering in Paradise!
Our family group of five adults had a fantastic stay at Eric and Polly’s condo. Everything was as described and shown in the pictures— except that nothing could capture the beautiful peace and quiet of the spot. We loved having the kitchen and space to relax, the lanai was dreamy, and the access to our favorite resorts worked as well as we’d hoped. Eric, Polly and Wendee were all very responsive though we never had any problems, as everything worked perfectly and all instructions were clear. A beautifully cared for condo in a fantastic spot. Very highly recommended!

Beautiful but aging
The setting of this condo is wonderful with expansive views and a quiet area adjoining a golf course. The unit, however is showing signs of aging with old carpet, aging furniture and beds. The second bedroom is hardly fit to be a bedroom with a closet jammed with junk making it almost impossible to use and the twin beds were just pushed together without support resulting in the beds just sliding apart. Although listed as a two bedroom unit it is really only a one bedroom functionally unless little children are using the second bedroom. I would happily stay in this complex again but would not choose this unit unless it was renovated and added cable TV. It’s just not worth it.

Great views and quiet.
The title sums it up... great views to enjoy morning coffee or sunset cocktails on the covered lanai, very quiet, nicely appointed. One note about the "communication with the property manager", the systems wouldn't let me leave it blank, so I gave it 5 stars. Truth of the matter... we never spoke with the property manager because we never had too. Aloha

Our Home on the Kohala Coast
We spent a lovely and relaxing two weeks at Polly & Eric’s stylishly furnished and comfortable condo. There was more than enough seating on the lanai and the living/dining areas which allowed each of us to have our own space when needed. The kitchen is well equipped with enough cookware and dinnerware to host a dinner party (which we did a few times with family and local friends). This is our third time renting a unit in The Kumulani. We love the location with its access to the Mauna Kea and Hapuna resorts, as well as the proximity to our favorite dive operator in Kawaihae Harbor. We hope to be able to rent this unit again. It really did become our home on the Kohala Coast!
