About this property

Mauna Kea Resort - Single Family Home Stunning Sunset Views - Member of the Club


This home is the place for you and your family. Relax in our lovely private home with fabulous 180 degree sweeping ocean and mountain views. We are located in the famous Mauna Kea Resort on the Westin Hapuna Resort side.

Situated in a gated cul-du-sac with only 2 homes, it provides a quiet environment for your visit. Two sides of the house are surrounded by a green belt of native plants behind which is part of the golf course. There is a 2 car attached garage for quick access going straight into the laundry room and kitchen. Great for unloading.

This home offers three bedrooms comprising of two king master suites with lanai access and an Ohana (meaning family) which is a large separate bedroom with two twins that convert to a king upon request. The Ohana with its separate entry inside the court yard has a game table, mini refrigerator, sink, microwave and cable TV. Each bedroom has its own private full bath with an additional dedicated 1/4 bathroom for guests and family. Our home comfortably sleeps six people, but we can squeeze in another with our blow up bed.

All bedrooms have cable TV. A separate media room contains a 47 inch flat screen TV, home entertainment system with Blu ray/DVD player for those who love that. There is free wireless high speed internet. Please let us know if you plan to zoom as Spectrum on our island can have it's challenges.

We have a newly re-modeled private solar heated pool and a separate heating source (small fee for 5 hours a night use) for the large spa both facing the ocean to enjoy at beautiful sunsets year round and for laps as well.

The kitchen features granite counter tops, brand new microwave, oven and dishwasher. The ceiling fan will keep things cool in the kitchen especially if using the built in desk to flip through local recipes. Relax at the high top counter bar while all the prep work is being done!

Being a member of THE CLUB guests have an option to purchase their own access enjoying both the Mauna Kea Resort and the Westin Hapuna Resort for a daily fee that covers the entire household. Look for a flyer to down load about the program.

Please check out the renovation section of the Mauna Kea as they head towards the completion of the new Spa, gym & pool. Exciting

Ideal property for Big Island family vacation

We cannot say enough positive things about this property and this island. This was our 3rd visit to the Hawaii islands and the Big Island has become our favorite. This property is in the perfect location - beautiful weather and spectacular views. We had the best of both worlds - house where we could cook most of our meals but also access to amazing resorts with beautiful beaches and pools. The property manager is top-notch and very responsive. The house itself is spacious, clean and beautifully decorated. The sunset views are like no other. The Big Island has so much to offer - fun adventures and relaxing days at the beach. We will definitely be back - to this island and this property!

Fantastic house & pool near the resorts

The house, pool and yard were beautiful, modern, well-maintained, and perfectly located. Great views!! Our 12 yr old enjoyed the pool and hot tub, and there was plenty of outdoor furniture for morning coffee, lounging and dining. The property manager was proactive and helpful in communicating about all aspects of our stay. It was easy to get to both Mauna Kea and Hapuna resorts and ideal to use both beach and pool areas. We couldn't ask for a better vacation and would love to return.

Fabulous Home!

The four of us just absolutely loved our stay at this 3 bedroom, 3 bath property with the pool and spa just steps away from the long shaded patio . We had an ocean view and the property was private. There was lots of room to spread out, inside and out. The outside set up was excellent, We especially loved the 4 padded lounge chairs. The house was clean, well equipped and the beds comfy. We didn’t use the 3rd bedroom which was totally furnished and entry was just outside the front door. We would highly recommend this beautiful home, It was perfect.

Good stay, accommodations a little misleading

This is a well-appointed house in a beautiful spot. The listing is a little misleading as the 3rd room isn’t accessed from within the house. You need a separate key to access the outside door. This did not work for us as we were planning to put our 9 year old in that room. We were also disappointed that the pool floor was quite dirty when we arrived but it was cleaned the next day, thankfully. Perhaps they come on a scheduled time each week but it does seem appropriate to do an extra cleaning if guests are arriving. Donna was communicative and responded quickly to questions.

Total Paradise

I looked at a lot of properties when I was planning this trip. I decided on this house because of the pool and hot tub. They did not disappoint. House is furnished with everything you would need (from a-z). The kitchen has everything for a culinary delight. Bedroom suites are spacious and comfortable. The outdoor furniture is perfect for hanging out, having dinner and star gazing. It is very quiet and peaceful.. House is beautifully landscaped! We would totally return.

Stunning

We absolutely loved our stay at this property! Stunning ocean view and having access to the hotel properties was wonderful. We couldn’t believe how private it was, too. Only 1 other house in the gated community and complete privacy in the backyard unlike many other houses on the golf course. Perfect location for daily beach trips and afternoons by the house pool! The pool is raised above ground, which we loved because we had a toddler with us. The kitchen is well stocked (we cooked every night) and they have great pool and beach toys for kids. Even a pack n play! The jacuzzi was lovely. Heated so quickly. Beds are very comfortable and there’s enough space for three couples or two couples with kiddos. We’ll be back and thank you Donna for all your help in coordination!

Stunning View!!!

Everything about this property was amazing! The location was very private and there were only two houses located within the gated area. The view of the ocean was incredible and made for the best dinners outside, watching the sunset. The kitchen was so well stocked and had everything we needed. There was even a cooler for the days we wanted to pack a lunch and explore the island. One thing to note- if you have kids, they will probably not want to stay in the Ohana. I know it is stated in the description, but it does have it's own entrance from the courtyard. Awesome for multiple families. Donna was also very helpful whenever we had any questions. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. It was so quiet and peaceful!

If it's free, book it

Our favorite VRBO Property we've ever stayed at. The location is amazing, the home is beautiful, clean and well-stocked. Mattresses, linens, everything is top notch. Donna is an awesome communicator and worked with us to make sure all of our COVID requirements were complete. The fact that the home is connected with The Westin & The Mauna Kea gives you the best of both worlds-space and privacy and access to lovely resorts and great beaches. We will definitely try to return to this property! Great for our family of 4.

Perfect house in a perfect location for our family

Everything about this house is top notch . It’s a beautifully built high quality home that is fully stocked with comfy beds , everything you could want in a kitchen and a spectacular view . We were at the Westin daily and having the space of the home plus the hotel and beach access was just perfect ! We didn’t realize how gorgeous this hotel was and that Hapuna is the most beautiful beach on the Big Island when we booked it ! It was just fabulous ! Only minor downside is that we couldn’t figure out how to get the hot tub warm . We tried warming it for an hour but that wasn’t long enough to warm up , so that was a minor bummer . Did not stop us from having the most fabulous vacation week ! Donna is amazing and totally responsive - even to my constant Covid test questions on our way in . Don’t forget to post both trips on the safe travels app if you are connecting through another island and also our family that wasn’t vaccinated had to get tested at the airport again . Despite the testing anxiety , once we arrived , this week was pure magic . The beauty and peacefulness of this location and the spectacular views were over the top . Highly recommend ! We’ll be coming back for sure .

Amazing house for all ages

We loved our two weeks in the big island at Hapuna and this house is a gem. We have a two and four year old who shared the second master - plenty of room for a pack n play, and then my parents came up for a few days and used the casita which was great for them to have their own space. The pool and views are magnificent. I was a little nervous with my two year old and the pool but we got a system down and all of the doors and screens lock which is a plus. The kitchen is very well equipped and labeled. We had fun looking at all of the fruit in the yard with my daughter. We used the hot tub and pool at least twice a day and went to Mauna Kea or Hapuna each day as well. This house is also a great starting point for Waimea which has two great grocery stores and a playground for kids. We hope to come back!

About the host

Hosted by Donna Brucato

Host profile image
We live on the mainland but love to come to our home as often as we can. It has such a quiet wonderful feel.

Why they chose this property

We have vacationed at Mauna Kea and Hapuna Beach for years and love this part of Hawaii best. We have always wanted to own a home here and finally had the opportunity to purchase this beautiful home.

What makes this property unique

This home is very private, with only one other house on the north side. Two sides of the house have a green belt of native plants. Wonderful sweeping views of the ocean and coast line both to the north and south. We grow organic papaya and banana trees bearing fruit most of the year for our clients. There are also a variety of citrus and pineapple in season. Lovely lanai along entire west side of the house with teak lounges and tables and chairs. Nice gas grill for outdoor meals. Enjoy the sunsets from the great room, lanai or swimming pool and spa.
If you choose the amenity package, you can enjoy the same amenities we do at both hotels--including reduced fees for golf at both Mauna Kea and Westin Hapuna, tennis at the seaside courts at Mauna Kea, beach and pool access at both hotels (including beach towels, lounge chairs and umbrellas).
