Hapuna Modern House – Hawaiian Luxury Resort Living

Perched on the highest point in the coveted High Bluffs at the Mauna Kea Resort, Hapuna Modern House is a home like no other in Hawai'i. Unlike the common resort-style architecture of heavy woods and granite finishing's so common in the area, the House takes its simple, modern inspiration from the work of Vladimir Ossipof who brought Hawaiian Modern to the islands in the 1960's. Hapuna Modern House provides each of its residents with the finest, most comfortable accommodation fully outfitted with all comforts anticipated. The goal is to “get the house out of the way” so residents may enjoy the views and natural beauty of the tropical volcanic desert.

As part of the Hapuna Resort at Mauna Kea, residents are a 15-minute walk to world-class golf, tennis and full resort amenities like fine dining, spa services and water sports on either of Conde Nast's “two best beaches in the Western hemisphere.” (*additional fee for full resort access)

*The house next door is also under construction and may create some intermittent building noise. The home's many water features, sound-blocking art wall, and Sonos music system throughout assist in minimizing any audible noise. Construction period subject to change, currently schedule for mid-2023 through 2024.

We had an absolutely perfect week at the hapuna modern house. We had 6 adults and 2 small children (2 and 8 months) and everyone had a blast! This house has everything you could possibly need and more. Pictures don’t even compare to the real thing. We were blown away by the attention to detail and amount of care put into every aspect of this house. David was so quick to respond to any question and recommend a fabulous private chef (big I private chef) as well as as a company to rent every possible baby item you could need (aloha Kona kids). Fantastic experience with all recommendations from the concierge. We are so thankful to the owners for letting us rent this beautiful luxury home. Can’t wait to come back!

Look, my family and I have stayed in really nice rentals over the years and every single member of our group said the same thing - this was the best rental we have ever had the privilege of staying in. There aren't pictures or words that do it justice. You have to stay in it to see. As picture perfect as it is in the listing, it's better in person. Thank you to the homeowners for creating such an incredible place to vacation. We will most certainly be back!

This house was incredible and perfect for a multi-generational family. We each had our private space and family space. The kids stayed in the pool from dawn to dark! It was equipped with everything we needed and then some. Needless to say, it made our trip even more special. Oh, I forgot to mention the view!!!! Spectacular! We will certainly go back, if the opportunity arises.

The house and location were wonderful. We found the activities recommended by the concierge to be lacking. The kayaking trip was a huge group of people with very different ability levels. We spent most of the trip waiting for others who were not as skilled or fit. A group of 17 people in one outing seems like way too many. Same with the horseback riding experience I would not take activity recommendations from the concierge again.

What an amazing stay! We had two families of 4 with teenage children and there was more than enough room. We kept noticing that every one of our needs was met. We used the passes at the local resorts and enjoyed the time at the beaches. We ate at several local restaurants and did shopping at the grocery store - everything was easy and accessible. The kitchen and grill area are amazing for cooking at home. The views are simply spectacular. Thanks to the concierge, David, for all of his help during the trip.

This house was incredible! View is even better than the pictures and that’s saying a lot! The concierge David was also an all star and gave us phenomenal referrals to private chef, musician, hula lessons and excursions. Layout of the house made it perfect for letting kids swim while adults hang out on patio- I think they averaged about 7 hours of swimming a day! Made this family trip of ours very special and can’t thank the home owners enough for all of the details and cleanliness of the property. Mahalo!

This house had everything we needed for the perfect holiday. Our family of 6 stayed for almost 2 weeks and it was so nice to have amazing views from each bedroom (not to mention our own bathrooms!) The house is fully equipped, from the kitchen to beach toys to games at the house, and is exactly as pictured. There is beautiful art everywhere, the beds and seating are comfortable and the outdoor space is wonderful. Many of us made use of the lap pool as well - not just for show! We've stayed in the area before and really enjoy this location, with the proximity to both resorts, and activities on this part of the island. Our contact for the house was incredibly responsive with any issues we had, and we did ask for a cleaning during the stay, which left the house even cleaner than when we'd arrived. Thank you for an amazing vacation!

As described if not better. Great view. Love the fact that each bedroom had a bathroom. Great home for a big family. Pool was fantastic. Appliances, Furnishings and decorations were all top in class. Definitely will return.

The layout of this home is perfect. All bedrooms have huge glass doors that open to the infinity pool and beyond to the ocean. This home has every cooking tool and appliance you could ever need plus games and books. Welcome basket was enjoyed. Loved the aged cheddar cheese. The separate room was a little loud as it backed the air conditioners but probably would have been quieter if we had kept the bathroom door closed at night. We really didn’t notice any excessive road noise. Definitely going to buy a bidet for my home after experiencing these.
