Hikialani 🌺 Ocean Views - Pool/Hot Tub - Member of the Club for Access

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 relocated the spa. The resort tells us the renovation will be done in stages and won’t really affect amenities too much.

This beautiful Villa is located on one of the most ideal lots in Wai'Ula'Ula. It features fabulous sunset views and expansive views of the Pacific Ocean, Kohala Mountains, and the Island of Maui; this Villa has a private saltwater pool and spa. The West facing view allows for spectacular sun on the uncovered portion of the lanai, while the covered lanai provides plenty of shade.

The furniture is top of the line with the living room featuring a Kreiss Corniche sectional. Both master suites have Serta Perfect Day California Kings, and the third bedroom is furnished with 2 Serta Perfect Sleeper Queens.

The expansive 650 sf lanai is furnished with the finest grade A teak furniture, this provides an even larger and more comfortable area for morning coffee, afternoon sunbathing, dining and enjoying the evening sunset.

If technology is a priority for you and your family, this is the villa for you. All three bedrooms have 50 inch flat screen TV's. The living room is equipped with a 70 inch 4K flat screen and Sonos Sound Bar. All TV's use the 4K Apple TV platform.

Secure, gated, and nestled on the sprawling 48-acre resort of Wai’ula’ula in the exclusive Mauna Kea Beach Resort, guests have access to two world class resorts; The Mauna Kea Resort, and The Hapuna Beach Prince Hotel.

The spectacular floor plan includes 3 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, all on one level. The sliding glass patio doors and screens disappear into the walls, bringing the lanai, living room, and kitchen together into a combined 3005 SF of indoor & covered outdoor living space; in addition, 650 SF of uncovered, sunny lanai surround the pool & spa area. The wraparound covered portion of the lanai features a built-in Wolf gas BBQ grill, fridge, sink, areas for dining and relaxing, and plenty of shade.

The Villa’s kitchen is equipped with top-of-the-line granite counter tops, Sub-Zero Refrigerator, stainless-steel Wolf and Viking appliances.

Perfect house. Everything worked as you’d hope. Easy and upscale in every way. Access to Mauna Kea and Hapuna resorts was well worth it for us for the relatively quiet beach access.

Slice of heaven

My family and I had a wonderful time at this property, it was clean, it has everything you need, rooms were spacious, beds were very comfy. We love to cook and loved that the kitchen was large and stocked with everything needed. We really enjoyed the outdoor space, the pool and spa were wonderful, plenty of beach toys as well. Donna was a pleasure to coordinate with, very responsive, we would definitely come back and stay here again!

Excellent Escape!

Wonderful home nestled in the hillside. Excellent pool-side sunset view. Loved that the house didn't face the golf course. Appreciated abundance of towels, decently appointed kitchen and comfy furniture. Bedrooms also offered excellent privacy. Fabulous communication from host. Location meant a fair amount of driving for activities and food, but we know this going in and didn't mind. Made a great basecamp for all of our outings. Would definitely stay here again.

Fantastic House in Every Respect!

This house is fantastic in every respect. With each bedroom having its own bath, the ratings go even higher. The house is outfitted with just about everything you could possibly want. The kitchen is incredibly well-stocked with ample pots and pans, dishes, silverware, glasses, hand towels, sponges, detergent, cleaners, bowls, storage containers, plastic bags, paper towels, hot pads, appliances, etc. If you needed it, they had it. The bedrooms were spacious, especially the 2 king bedrooms. Those bathrooms were also enormous. The double queen bedroom was large, but had a smaller bathroom with only 1 sink and a smaller toilet/shower area. This was not a problem but is good to know. The living room was large and extremely comfortable, the huge kitchen was well laid- out, and the dining room was convenient with a very big table. A laundry room was handily located just off the kitchen. The washing machine pods and dryer sheets were all provided. The lanai and pool/jacuzzi were magnificent. The lanai was decked out with 6 large chairs around a huge coffee table, with 4 comfy lounge chairs at the pool. The lanai also had a round table for dining next to a built-in barbecue. The backyard had a beautiful ocean view which provided a great spot to watch the beautiful sunsets. Whatever we lacked or needed, the management company was super quick to respond. Our stay was fabulous and this comfortable, beautifully furnished house was a big reason for that. It deserves a 5+ rating.

Beautiful property and fantastic property manager

This beautiful home is equipped with everything you need. Every kitchen item you could need is there (and high quality too). (A keurig would be a nice addition - the current single serve coffee maker doesn't fit standard pods.). The pool and hot tub are wonderful and great spots to watch the sunset. The outdoor bbq area is fabulous. Donna is fantastic, super responsive and helpful. Notes about the development where this property is located: Obtaining privileges at the resorts is recommended. There is a nice pool at the close amenity center but the resort access is worth it just to have easy access to Mauna Key and Hapuna beaches. (We saw cars getting turned away often from the public access points because they were full.) The Seaside Tennis Club at the Mauna Key is spectacular. We had a few tee times at the renowned golf course but unfortunately they were cancelled due to the wind. Both resorts are an easy five minute drive away, so a rental car is necessary. Otherwise a 40 minute walk and pedestrians are discouraged. It can be windy. During our 8 day stay no beach umbrellas were allowed. Just something to consider, we're told this is typical for that side of the Big Island. On the flip side, little rain. Lots of options for groceries, all 20+ minutes away. Take half a day and go to the Costco in Kona if you can. Overall a wonderful time and we can't say enough about Donna!

So good we literally CRIED when we had to say goodbye!

Our stay in late summer 2023 was first-class. The home is beautifully appointed with original art and comfortable furniture. We were greeted with an adorable welcome gift from Donna, the fantastic host. Here’s what I think will be useful to future guests: The central air conditioning worked really well, but the mornings and evenings were cool enough to enjoy fresh air through the enormous sliding screen 'wall' that borders the lanai. The kitchen had everything we needed in terms of pans and tools, and the appliances are all best in class. The amazing shower stall that exits to the private outdoor courtyard feels straight out of Architectural Digest. Practically every light switch has a dimmer, so you can really set the mood. And of course, this home has a wonderful pool and spa. The spa is surprisingly private given the expansive views, and it was unforgettable being in the water under the stars. Other highlights were watching the sun set over the horizon and the backyard’s gorgeous plants. The community was very quiet. There aren’t really any cons, though be aware that the home is in a quiet part of the island. It’s about 40 minutes of highway driving away from Kailua-Kona, the nearest town with the most stuff to do on the island's west side. Fortunately, smaller but cute Waimea is only about 20 minutes away, and has numerous restaurants, grocery stores, etc. Highly recommended!

Perfect for family travel

We’ve stayed in the Wai’ula’ula community before and this house was wonderful! Well equipped, clean, and the ocean views are beautiful. Bedrooms were comfortable and quiet, and having our own pool and hot tub was such a bonus. It was also nice having smart tv’s for quieter evenings. Easy to get to and from the Mauna Kea, and purchasing the resort privileges was absolutely worth it!

Spectacular Property

This is a spectacular property. It exceeded every expectation and is exceptionally well-equipped. It is ideally located to reach every major Big Island site. We chose to forego the resort membership and we’re glad we did. We were on the move every day. Also, all the resorts allow limited parking and beach access on their properties, so you can enjoy a resort beach with an early start to your day. This home’s neighborhood also has a stunning pool and credible gym just a 5-minute walk away.

The perfect week!

We are returning guests to this property and already can’t wait to come back! First stay was just my husband and I, second included our 1 year old son and my parents. Everything was just perfect, it felt like a luxury vacation but with all of the comforts of home (especially important having a 1 year old!) combination of resort access plus ease of renting a home was perfect for a family vacation. We are already planning our next trip back and are so thankful. Double master is perfect for 2 couples, my little one slept so well in his comfy room in a pack and play. What an incredible week!

Felt like home

A very beutiful property that has all the amenities needed for a fun stay. The property has the necessaties you would find in your own home from cooking utensils to iPhone chargers. I would strongly recommend leveraging the properties at Mauna Kea as they are two of the nicest beaches on the island. It was great to break up the days we spent at the beach and used the pool in the afternoons. The villa is on one of the best locations in all of the Big Island as you are close to many great restaurants at Mauna Lani, Manua Kea, Waikoloa and The Fairmont. Donna was responsive and also available to answer questions during our stay. A great quiet and comfortable stay!!!

Wonderful place for a family

The unit is laid out great for a couple of families to stay together. The rooms are huuuge, each bedroom has an en suite bath, and finishes are high-end. The small pool at the unit is perfect for young kids. We also enjoyed having the options of the community pool (about a 10min walk or 2min drive) and the two hotel beaches+pools (~5min drive). Resort amenity includes complementary valet, so process of popping down to the hotels to swim or eat breakfast was super quick and easy. I wish there was a grocery or market nearby, but otherwise it was just about perfect. Highly recommended.
