Current Awesome News! Mauna Kea Resort announces a $180-million renovation with no rollout plans as of yet, other than the April - November 2024 closure of the Mauna Kea golf course under the direction of Robert Trent Jones Jr. with visionary work of Robert Trent Jones Sr. and both sons Reese and Bobby Jr. Other plans include 252 hotel rooms, new spa, and dining venues. Resort pool will close for a short time as they relocate the spa. The resort tells us the renovation will be done in stages with minimum affect on guest amenities. We will update this site with new updates as the are released.

Welcome to one of the most beautiful properties within the private gated community of Wai’Ula’Ula at Mauna Kea resort!

This upstairs unit, facing out onto the west coast of Hawaii affords a true 180 degree of the Kona coast. One of the most stunning views within the property; gorgeous views of the ocean during the day and especially at sunset from the west facing lanai. The entire design of the property “pulls” you out onto the lanai where you can enjoy everything from your own “happy hour”, a sunset dinner, or just to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the North Kohala coast!

Beautifully decorated and appointed, this three-bedroom, three-bathroom unit (two master king suites and one dual queen room) has a true Hawaiian “feel”, along with granite counter tops and Wolf & SubZero appliances.

Staying here you have access to all the amenities of the Wai’Ula’ Ula property: a clubhouse and amenity center with its own fitness center, infinity pool, keiki (children’s) pool, spa, recreational pavilion with meeting room and an outdoor BBQ area.

Beaches close to the Wai’Ula’Ula property (Mauna Kea & Hapuna) are two of the most beautiful beaches in all of the Hawaii Islands, being frequently written up in Conde Nast & Travel & Leisure. By staying at the Wai’Ula’Ula at Mauna Kea property, you also have the ability to purchase access to both the Mauna Kea and Westin Hapuna resorts, and their respective golf courses. Access to a truly remarkable time on the big island of Hawaii!!

This condo was absolutely perfect. The property manager was extremely responsive and made the check in/out process seamless. This location cannot be beat and the house was equipped with everything we needed. Very comfortable beds, fully stocked kitchen to make meals every day, along with beach toys for the kids. We will definitely be back and will stay at this condo again. Thank you!

The condo was by far the nicest and most well appointed property we have experienced. The kitchen was so well equipped that it reminded us of home. Communication with Donna was excellent. The fantastic view was icing on the cake.

We visited Kona for the 2023 IronMan. Although the location is a bit of a drive to get to the town of Kona, it was a welcome reprieve to come back to after a busy day sightseeing. The Kitchen has everything you could possibly need to make a meal. Beautiful sunsets on the Lanai. We enjoyed the pool, and workout room. They were just a short walk away from the condo. We would defiently book this condo again!

Stayed a week with family and friends ( 6 of us). We have stayed many times at the Mauna Kea Hotel and this was just perfect for our small group to enjoy all of the amenities of the hotel yet be able to cook some of our meals as well. The condo was spotless and decorated beautifully, with Comfortable beds and furniture. I love it when there are condiments ,etc. in the kitchen as well extra bonus. We already plan to come back and hopefully for a longer stay. We will miss the beautiful sunsets from the lanai. Thank You!

Everything was great. This is a beautiful property and was set up so thoughtfully. The condo had everything needed that make our stay enjoyable and efficient and everything was in good condition. Very close driving distance to Hapuna Bay and Mauna Kea Resort. Grocery stores are about a 15 minute drive. I would totally stay here again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our well appointed villa that overlooked the Kona Coast and Pacific Ocean. This peaceful retreat is great for adults or families; close to the ocean and to great golfing. Would absolutely stay here again.

The online pictures of this property looked too good to be true, but this unit, and its views were even better in person. The kitchen had everything you could possibly need to cook family-size meals. It really was a home-away-from-home. There wasn’t one thing about our stay that I would critique.

Unit is beautifully decorated, clean and spacious for our family of 6 adults and 2 young children. Parking is easy. Unit has option to pay $165 more per day to have access to both Hapuna and Mauna Kea resort facilities, beach and pool chairs, golf discounts, parking at resorts etc. It is worth that for our family. We enjoy using both resorts chairs, golf discount and parking. Plus you get charging privileges at resorts for drinks, food, retail which makes things easy or too easy lol. Unit has own community pool and workout room which are very nice if you do not want to buy into the resort package.

What a perfect place! This was our second year staying within the Wai’ula’ula complex and this unit has to be one of the best. The furnishings were immaculate and tasteful, the kitchen was completely stocked with everything we could need, the art was fantastic, and the view was epic and unobstructed. More than enough linens, which were very comfortable. The smart TVs and garage full of sand toys and boogie boards was a nice bonus. Donna was a fanatic facilitator. We will definitely be back!

Excellent location and amenities (as described in listing) and a very functional high quality kitchen, which is often not the case in these kind of properties (which is weird but true - they often look good but are't really functional) . Overall, this property was perfect for our family vacation.

Annual Big Island vacationer. This unit was just a described with an exceptional location, quality furnishings and great amenities. It is by far the best equipped kitchen we’ve ever had in a VRBO. I’m sure others agree with me the frustration of not having simple things that you prefer not to purchase and this is an over that has finally figured it out ! Will stay again for sure.

The condo itself was as nice of a condo as we've ever rented on VRBO. The location was the best we've ever incurred, seeing the ocean out our back sliding glass doors every morning and night. We always judge accommodations by the quality of the beds, the showers and the kitchen, and the view. This condo had 5 stars in all these areas.

We loved this home, great views, classy interior furnishings, everything you need in the kitchen and lanai. Beds are comfortable with enough room for everyone. ( we were a party of 6) Will definitely keep it mind for our next visit. Having access to The Westin and Mauna Kea Resorts really exceeded expectations and made the trip exceptional.

Five of us celebrating assorted milestones this year. The condo was well-stocked, clean and spacious. We had room to socialize and retreat as needed. The neighborhood was quiet and amenities centre was never over-crowded. Everything was in good repair and the views and environment were exceptional. A very good home base for big island adventures. Highly recommend. Thanks Donna for being so attentive every step of the way.

We had a great time at this property. It was big and clean with everything you need. Love watching the sunset from the lanai. We did not get access to the resort because we wanted to go to other beaches in this beautiful island. The rental have umbrellas, towels, boards, sand toys for kids and beach chairs. Would stay here again!

Really enjoyed our stay at this condo and all the amenities that were provided. It came with everything you need to use in the house and also for the beach, and it was so nice to have all these options. The sunset view every night was so beautiful, we enjoyed having dinners out on the deck every night. The house itself is so beautifully decorated and every room and bathroom is very nice. This place is definitely on our list to come back to in the future!

This was the perfect place for our family vacation (rescheduled from 2020). The condo was beautiful, clean, spacious, and was the best stocked kitchen in terms of utensils, appliances, miscellaneous items, etc. that I've ever stayed at. One note: There is a pool and workout center in the area where the condo is but resort access (aka beach, towels, chairs, umbrellas etc.) is an additional cost that Donna helps to set up for you if you're interested. We hope to be able to stay here again if we come back to the Big Island!

We love having access to the hotels with the membership but then also having the flexibility to eat in with the full kitchen the condo has. Great experience all around:,

Such a quiet and peaceful setting. Beautiful view of the ocean and mountains. Great floor plan with privacy between bedrooms and comfortable beds, linens and pillows. Bathrooms spacious and beautiful. Great tub to soak in. Plenty of closets with ample hangers and drawers. We really appreciated the kitchen. Excellent appliances and everything u need for gourmet cooking. Tv was giant and fun to watch football in well designed living space. Enjoyed the art and interior design. This is obviously a loved property and we felt blessed to be able to spend special time with friends here. Thank you!! Would love to return.
