We loved the room accommodations, but due to construction renovations the self parking was limited. Our golf view room would have been great, if not for the eyesore caused by valet parking all over the front of the hotel.

This is the nicest hotel I’ve ever stayed in. Understated and tasteful elegance. Fantastic rooms with amazing balconies, world class beach, impeccable service, excellent grounds, fine dining at Manta, but also a beachfront casual bar/restaurant, and Copper Bar in between and our favorite. They have an Asian Art Collection worthy of a museum. This was out of our usual price range, a big splurge, and worth every penny. We are already trying to figure out how to swing it to go back next winter.

Amazing stay at the Mauna Kea as always, the entire staff was kind and helpful and provided everything needed for a fantastic vacation. Small service details like two luggage holders, ample towels, water bottles, morning coffee stations etc. made us feel at home. The beach crew was exceptional, Victor went above and beyond to help us get started with the SUPs and enjoy all the beach amenities. The beach equipment being free now is a huge plus for us, it really made it carefree to enjoy whatever activities we wanted, whenever we felt like it. We knew about the construction in advance and it didn't affect our stay too much. Yes the un-renovated room was showing its age but still clean and comfortable. Food was ok but the menus need updating with more fresh/healthy and grab/go options like the Westin. All in all the Mauna Kea remains our favorite hotel on our favorite beach in Hawaii and we can't wait to return!

Probably the best beach on the big island and perfect relaxing oasis for big island excursions. This resort when fully operational is probably the epitome of discrete luxury with an eco sensibility. Manta was delicious. The staff were kind and went above and beyond to meet guest demands. The Manta moonlight excursion was magical. Sad that the pool was closed but as an ocean oriented family with a beautiful bay at our doorstep we didn't miss it. Banana bread is exceptional.
