Reviews for The Mauna Lani Bay Hotel & Bungalows
Mauna Lani helped us create special family memories - despite the storm!
Our timing was unfortunate and a big storm hit for our entire stay but the Mauna Lani staff made any disappointment disappear! They provided activities to escape the rain and were also ready to set up furniture and lounge chairs at early little pocket of sun came through. The restaurants on property were outstanding, the decor is beautiful, and everyone greeted us with a smile. The kids club was a huge hit and Monica was great at keeping the kids entertained even though they had to stay indoors all day. I almost canceled our trip because of the weather and I am so glad I didn't. It was an incredibly special visit and we are already planning our trip back. Couldn't recommend this resort enough - mostly to families with young kids.

The Right Decision
It would be very difficult to find a negative about this resort. All of the employees were outstanding and courteous throughout our stay. They made us feel welcomed from the moment we stepped foot in the hotel. It’s a BEAUTIFUL hotel but a hotel can only be as beautiful as their staff. Their staff is the reason this place is a 5 star resort in my eyes. Book them!

Loved the Mauna Lani
Beautiful open air property that beckons you in with great design and wonderful pool and beach areas. Staff was genuinely welcoming and friendly; made you feel important at every interaction. We had gorgeous 3rd floor ocean view room. Well thought out bathroom area with 2 vanities on opposite sides so 2 people can have sink and mirrors at same time. Comfortable beds. Loved the Surf Shack for lunch. Did the sunrise outrigger canoe trip and it was outstanding. The resort amenities package (was included with our Costco purchase) included unlimited use of rental clubs and driving range, which was fantastic morning activity (The greens fees were $275 for hotel guests) Several dining options; would pass on the HaLani casual restaurant (expensive fort what you get). Good snorkeling at the property's Beach Club which is short walk away. Overall, a great resort that makes it tough to leave the property but easy come home to.

Never disappoints. Always superb.
I haven't found a beach resort that beats the Mauna Lani. I want to try some new places, but I know I can depend on this one to be excellent, so I keep going back every year. This is the most gorgeous lobby I've seen in Hawaii (maybe anywhere).

Outstanding beachfront resort!
Overall, an excellent resort with beautiful beach and super amenities. Friendly and welcoming staff, excellent reservations assistance from Shirley on the reservations team. Beautiful golf courses and access to a great tennis facility!
