Heavenly. Worth every penny. Spotless, smelt fantastic, extremely comfortable, staff members were friendly and helpful, beach is stunning, activities were fun, pool area was excellent, spa services phenomenal. the views and sunset- absolutely stunning. my only critique was the food, which is is hit or miss, depending on where you eat. Halani restaurant is absolutely delicious for breakfast, lunch and dinner- lots to choose from and everything is delicios. Canoe House dinner was incredible for the atmosphere, the wine, the view and appetizers- but mains were a bit of a let down. The cocktails at the beach club are amazing but the food is bad- but you're not going to the beach for food.

From the second you pull up to the moment you step out, you’re in paradise like no other. Everyone is so kind and warm and you can feel that it’s genuine and not a facade. Ocean views, great food, great amenities, even better people.

This place was absolutely beautiful! The snorkeling was fantastic! And Manny on the beach was super attentive. There is a daily resort fee and parking fee. About 35-45 min from Kona but we liked being away from all the hustle and bustle. Everything is just as beautiful in person as it is in pictures.

If you want to place that feels like home, the Mauna Lani is the perfect getaway. Everyone feels like Ohana and the spirit of aloha is felt at this resort. The accommodations are beautiful and everyone from valet to housekeeping to front desk staff and beyond is so welcoming. I am looking forward to my third visit next year to this beautiful resort.
