About this property

Mauna Kea Villas #13 w/AC: Luxurious Oceanview, Serene Lanai & Coastal Views

This stunning property is now accepting longer-term stays at reduced rates. Please inquire for details.

Experience true island luxury in this ocean-view, air conditioned, three-bedroom villa on the Big Island's spectacular Kohala Coast. **Resort amenities are detailed below; please review the planned improvements, as this could impact availability.

The villa's expansive great room includes abundant comfortable seating and a large formal dining area, leading to a beautifully appointed, fully equipped, open-concept kitchen. Two of the spacious and inviting bedrooms feature king beds, while the third provides the flexibility of two twin beds. Amenities such as high-speed wireless internet, cable television, ceiling fans in all rooms, and an in-villa laundry room ensure guests have every convenience during their stay.

Spend your days lounging in sunshine or shade on the sprawling lanai. Take advantage of your barbecue grill and linger over an open-air meal with a breathtaking view of the brilliant blue Pacific. Swaying palm trees and other tropical landscaping also surround your Hawaiian home away from home.

Guests of this gorgeous villa on Hawaii Island's famed Kohala Coast will find the Mauna Kea Beach Hotel within walking distance and the Westin Hapuna Beach Resort just two miles away. Along with access to Mauna Kea Beach and Hapuna Beach, two of the Big Island's most magnificent stretches of sand, guests are able to enjoy the hotels' oceanfront pools, hot tubs, fitness centers, championship golf courses, and tennis courts for a daily resort fee. A stay at Villas at Mauna Kea 13 also entitles guests to resort charging privileges at many of the hotels' restaurants and shops. Snorkeling, stand-up paddling, hiking, manta ray dives, boat tours, horseback riding, coffee farm tours, and a variety of other vacation adventures also await nearby.

Other things to note:
1. There will be a mandatory mid-stay cleaning fee of $300 plus tax applies to all stays of 14 days or longer.
2. Guests wishing to receive charging privileges at the Mauna Kea and Westin Hapuna Beach Hotels (this includes access to both fitness centers, discounted golf and tennis, and reserved chairs and towels at both swimming pools and beaches) may pay an additional $150 per day (through Dec 31, 2022) and an additional $165 per day (Jan 1, 2023 and forward), per family through Mauna Kea Services.

**The Mauna Kea Resort has embarked on an ambitious improvement and renovation plan that impacts several areas of the resort, including but not limited to, the main tower, various restaurants, pools, golf courses and spa services. The renovations are expected to take place from April 2024 through the second quarter of next year (2025). For more information and updates on these renovations, please contact us. We’ll be happy to provide you with real time updates!

Perfect Home Base on the Kohala Coast

This villa was perfect for our group, providing plenty of space for our two families. The views from the lanai were amazing, the house was stocked with everything we could possibly need, and it was in a great location that allowed us to easily access both the Mauna Kea and Westin Resorts. We did not want to leave and would love to come back someday! What a gorgeous house and beautiful location! Amazing!

Views and Whale Watching

Gorgeous views and epic whale watching! The villa was comfortable and luxurious, with great puzzles to put together. the art was a lovely personal touch from the owners. As former Hawai’i residents it felt like an indulgent place to be with the very best beach nearby.

Perfect!

Superb location! 5 minute walk to the Mauna Kea. Spectacular view. My husband said it was by far the cleanest barbecue of any of our past rentals! We noticed that the internet was not working. Eilis replied immediately. She called the company and the whole site was down.When it came back up that evening it still was not working. She sent Dave out the first thing in the morning and resolved the issue. My only slight complaint: A few more bath towels would be nice. It was a wonderful stay. Thank you!

Excellent Location and Resort Access

The size and location of this unit are unbeatable, with amazing ocean views. It is also great having such easy access to the Mauna Kea resort (for an extra fee) - you get the best of both worlds with both resort amenities and the conveniences of staying in a condo. We used the resort beach facilities and fitness center frequently during our stay, and were especially impressed by the tennis center. The Mauna Kea Villas complex is beautiful. The decor in the unit itself is a bit dated, but the online pictures are very accurate so you know exactly what to expect. For our family, the size & location of this unit worked great.

Zen Hawaiian Home

We absolutely loved this residence and would highly recommend to anyone. The graceful layout of this unit and captured the unobstructed view of the Waikoloa coast line and pacific ocean is a memory that will not be forgotten. SO Peaceful and tranquil we felt by being here. It was a perfect place to unwind adjacent to a world class resort. Owner's vintage Hawaiian touches, artwork, high quality bedding, and kitchen amenities provided suited all of our needs and more. We hope to enjoy this unit in the near future and look forward to leisurely strolling through the gorgeous landscaped pathway downhill to Kaunaoa beach. Mahalo.

Hawaiihbg

Nothing quite like the beach/ocean at the Mauna Kea. Our house had a stunning view, plenty of amenities and was spacious. Had problems with the internet/tv which were not resolved until a week into our stay. Scramble for beach chair locations was almost comical as folks would take towels back to their rooms and then return early in the AM to save their spots. All that aside, we've been coming to the Mauna Kea for several decades and always look forward to our returns.
