Recent Mauna Lani Terrace Reviews


The condo was lovely and was really well-stocked. We did by basic groceries, but the kitchen had olive oil, salt, pepper and spices and a full range of kitchen equipment (including baking pans!) and sharp knives! It's a very short walk to the Mauna Lani hotel with its restaurants and to a lovely, sheltered beach. The pool is well set up and everything is very, very clean. There's a Foodland in the complex (2 minute drive) and it's a very short drive to the lovely white sand beach at Hapuna state park. We came in at night and had to search a little to find the right building, but that was the only thing that was trouble.

We love the Mauna Lani Terraces. Amazing views! The new pool /bbq area is terrific. And you can’t beat the beach club. D201 is well located but not our favorite floor plan. Tiny kitchen! But beautiful view and very comfortable furnishings.

We liked this unit. Very complete kitchen. Linens could be refreshed. Bed was comfortable. Overall I’d stay here again but prefer units farther away from Auberge hotel. You can hear hotel events from the lanai.

G201 is such a great fit for us, that we booked it again for 2024. We especially enjoyed the comfortable furniture on the lanai. We had trouble figuring out how to watch Apple TV, but we got it. Property manager was easy to communicate with, I’m sure she would have helped with the TV, if we had needed it. The mattress & sheets were amazingly comfortable. We didn’t see boogie boards or beach chairs anywhere but we didn’t care, and there was a good supply of nice beach towels. This was our second visit to the terraces. We love the location, the walkability to the beach club (& hotel for lunch), the pool is never crowded, the grounds are nicely maintained, and it’s quiet & peaceful.

Very nice 1 bedroom property with plenty of space; well furnished and well appointed; just as presented if not better. Great view and location. Very large lanai that was very enjoyable. Condo buildings are not well marked so a bit of trouble finding our building the first night in the dark. Key pad to enter the complex was also a bit difficult to locate in the dark. Once we were settled, had a great time.

Very much enjoyed the condo at Mauna Lani Terrace. Unit was well equipped and there was a lovely gift basket when we arrived. We walked everyday on the numerous walking trails, swam in the pool and at the beach and enjoyed the lanai morning and evening with coffee or glass of wine. I would highly recommend this unit and we are already talking about a return visit.

We were surprised how spacious the place was. The view was better than the pictures. The location of the condo was convenient to shopping, snorkel rentals, beach, grocery stores and restaurants. The condo had a book with recommendations for anything and everything you want to do. We would definitely rent and stay there again.

Very well-appointed condo with an upgraded kitchen and new appliances. Great new TV as well. Easy walk to the best snorkel beach, tennis/pickle ball and restaurants at the Auberge. Communication with owners/property manager was excellent throughout the process. Would definitely book again for a one-bedroom condo with a view.

We have stayed at many properties in the Mauna Lani area and this is a very close 2nd to the Hyatt Mauna Lani Point. Would have been 1st if it had a bigger / less shallow pool! Loved the location!

We enjoyed our stay at the condo and we’re pleased with the amenities of the property. It is a walk up, so a little difficult with luggage. The beach club and the pool were very nice as was the property for walking around. Condo was well furnished and comfortable. Communication was great with the owner

Many thanks to Joanne and Jasper for their wonderful hospitality. The Unit was perfect in every way. I only wish we could have stayed longer. I'm already preparing for next year's trip. *

It was my bad for not asking the owner how far of a walk the beach was. I assumed property was set up for easy beach access, as they said beachfront. Instead it was a bit of a walk around ponds on an asphalt path, with us carrying all our beach gear. Except for this misunderstanding, we enjoyed our time. The condo is very spacious and has everything you need for a lovely stay. Views are wonderful! A couple of things came up during our stay (because sometimes things happen). Nothing major and nothing that really affected our stay. Jasper and Joanne were quick to alert us and apologetic. Cathy, (the housesitter? on island manager?) stopped by one day as we were told she would. She was a joy to meet! All in all we would recommend, as long as you don't mind a bit of a walk to get to the beach.

Everything about the Mauna Lani Lagoon Terrace condo was great. The location allows easy access to the beach (5 minute walk) or pool (60-second walk), along with the rest of the Big Island (Kona, Mauna Kea, Volcanos...). The unit is quiet and comfortable (fans were great, never even thought about the AC), and it basically has every amenity that you could wish for. Everything in the kitchen is top-notch. Everything in the condo is top-notch! The lanai was a perfect space from early mornings through evenings. We'll definitely look for this condo again on our next trip to the Big Island.

Elegantly beautiful. Very comfortable in every way. Could not have been happier (except maybe for the heat wave while we were there!) Walked everywhere and enjoyed the Beach Club. Hope to come back.

This is a nice property with a great view and in a great location to take advantage of the beach club and the dining options at the Mauna Lani. All are within short walking distance.

Beautiful property and unit. Condo was perfectly appointed. Quick walk to the beach and morning walks around the fish ponds and along the ocean were second to none. Sunsets from the beach were fantastic. Hope to come back next year!

The best thing about the property was the view the walking around the fish ponds, the proximity to snorkeling the many fish in the water, It is south facing so AC is a must.

Lovely condo at the Lagoon Terraces at the Mauna Lani resort area. No view of the ocean but nice overlooking the lagoon. Very well stocked, everything you need including beach chairs, ice chest, spices, large washer/dryer, 2 full baths. Access to the beach club was great and easy walk next door to the Mauna Lani resort. Pool area for the condos was wonderful, usually empty. Location was near Waikoloa and Mauna Kea/Hapuna. Unit was exactly as described and communication with the owner could not have been better.

One of best stays we have ever experienced. Every aspect was first class. Enjoyed our stay and we will rent again.

I was very pleased with my stay. The condo was very clean, well appointed and is in a terrific location. Steps to the ocean and an easy walk to the beach club, the hotel and the shops. I did have an issue with the fridge when I arrived. Donna was very responsive and tried her best to resolve the problem. Fortunately it wasn't a big issue. Only a couple of suggestions, have a binder with all the info needed from check-in to check-out as well as suggestions for people not familiar with the area. For anyone interested in cooking stock up on your basic items as what's in the condo is hit or miss, the counter space is limited but workable and the pots and pans a beginning to reach the end of their life. All in all a great place and will definitely be back!!

Don't hesitate to book this condo, it's magnificent. The views, the lanai, the furnishings, all the thoughtful touches. It feels luxurious but friendly. Mike is great at communicating. The location is superb, allowing for 5 star snorkeling without a drive or paying for a boat. Couldn't ask for more.

We loved stayed at this wonderful penthouse flat with an ocean view! The owner was very communicative, friendly, and open to questions about activities. She even had fresh fruit for us upon arrival! The flat is clean and comfortable with a fabulous deck that spans the length of the entire apartment and looks over a fish pond. The location is excellent—it's a short walk to both the historic fish ponds and to Beach Club Beach (a white sand beach with amazing snorkeling and good swimming). There are several places to eat (or get cocktails and ice cream) nearby. The condo is up 2 flights of stairs, which was not a problem for us, but might be a consideration for some. Parking for one car is close by. If you're looking for resort amenities along with the comfort and privacy of your own place, this is it!

We’ve stayed at a number of units in the Mauna Lani Terrace and chose to return to this one. It’s a short walk to the pool and grills and it’s one of the nearest units to the beach club(5 min walk). The unit is well furnished, the kitchen is well equipped and there are plentiful beach towels as well as beach equipment and toys

This is our fifth time back to these condos. First time for this one specifically. Yes, the decor is somewhat dated in many of these condos, but honestly it is just about enjoying a relaxing and super functional condo close to so many potential activities. Would absolutely be back! Thank you !
