The condo was great. The location and the option to use the resort amenities made the stay very special. The best thing was the view, it was gorgeous and very peaceful.
We very much enjoyed our stay. Fantastic location within the Mauna Kea Resort, we also paid for access to the resort facilities, which was worth it for our family. It was the best of both worlds, comforts of a larger place to stay, while enjoying resort amenities. Beds were very comfortable and the view is amazing. It was a treat to stay here.
This condo was perfect for our family of four. It had a stunning view and everything my family of four needed to spend 12 days in paradise! We are already planning to return in 2025!
We had a wonderful trip! We have been coming to Mauna Kea for over 10 years and it never disappoints. This was our first time staying in the Kumulani and it was so nice! Quiet and tons of space. Beautiful views .. and the property manager was so nice! We would love to stay here again any time!
The Mauna Kea resort holds a special place in our family’s hearts, and this unit really helped solidify those sentiments. Kumulani has an amazing location, including sweeping views of the ocean and Maui, a pool in the property grounds and a very short drive to the beach, and beautiful walks anytime of day. The unit itself had all of the amenities that we needed, and while it may be ready for a few updates, there is nothing needed right now and everything is in good working order.
Some say Mauna Kea is the best beach in Hawaii - maybe the world! The stay was amazing, and having access to the Mauna Kea beach club was so fun! All the activities are included with the beach club fee, so all of us were able to snorkel, paddle board, kayak and more! It was fantastic to have access to the 6 restaurants at the two connected hotels, and the new wellness center at the Hapuna was amazing! The condo was fantastic and had everything we needed. It is on the top (2nd) floor so it has great ocean and golf course views. The home was very cozy and had everything you need. We cooked a few nights and there is a grill and great deck. It was so much better than staying at the hotel because we had space to hang out, but still had access to both hotels.
We loved this property! The hosts clearly have pride of ownership and strive to provide a memorable experience for their guests. First, there is an absolutely beautiful ocean view. So nice to enjoy it on the patio with a glass of wine. The home is very nicely decorated, with high quality mattresses. The kitchen was quite well stocked with an abundance of cutlery, dishware, pans, glassware. There was even a waffle iron! The furniture inside and outside was very comfortable, and the air conditioning worked like a dream. We elected to purchase the Mauna Kea guest membership and used it at the Westin almost every day. We enjoyed our last dinner at Mauna Kea and saw the manta rays down by the beach afterwards. I would give this property my highest recommendation.
We choose the location for the resort access, loved the Mauna Kea beach. The price is high compared to other locations but less expensive than the hotel. Must have a car, it is over 1 mile
drive to the beach. The ocean views from this 2nd floor condo are excellent, beautiful sunsets. It is on a golf course, so expect some noise from the landscape maintenance.
Inside the unit not so good. Aged furniture. Cheap mattress. Very short beds in the second bedroom. Our friends are 5'3"-5'6", if you are tall expect your feet to go over the edge. Several things that need repairs that were not done before our check in: kitchen window screen bended, chips in the kitchen pocelain floor, scratches on the kitchen sink. Cleanliness- kitchen countertop tiles grout need deeper cleaning, balcony floor had some marks, balcony ceiling fans were not wiped probably ever.
If the owners take care of these issues I would return in a heartbeat.
My wife and I visited for our Honeymoon and had a great time! The condo was incredible and definitely exceeded our expectations. We hope to be back in the future!
We had a fabulous time, this condo is incredibly well stocked and nicely furnished! The property manager, Hillary , is super nice and extremely responsive. I would rent this unit every time.
We had a great time staying in this lovely condo. We enjoyed using the amenities at the Mauna Kea and Hapuna resorts. We would definitely go back again!
