The Mauna Lani Bay Hotel & Bungalows

Fantastic overall experience. Every detail of check-in, room, and dining were personalized to our family and vacation intentions. Loved the various pools and beachfront relaxation spots. Great on-site restaurants and services. Took advantage of several experiences such as the included beachfront yoga and tennis courts, house-car to other spots on the resort, as well as the add-on outrigger canoe paddle. Wonderful natural setting that included great sunsets, a lagoon trail, and snorkeling with tropical fish and sea turtles! Definitely would return again!

Beautiful location with a friendly staff. The rooms were clean, well stocked with amenities and the staff got us anything we were in need of, like extra hangers or ice.

Stayed at Mauna Lani, Auberge Collection and it absolutely lived up to the hype. Stunning property, beautiful rooms, incredible ocean views, and the staff made everything feel effortless. The perfect mix of luxury, relaxation, and authentic aloha spirit.The food was amazing !

Our stay at the Mauna Lani was wonderful! The hotel is stunning and we felt welcomed as soon as we arrived. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel like Ohana. Our room was clean, beautifully decorated and we watched the sunrise from our bed each day. Don't be mistaken - the mountain view is amazing! We ate in all the restaurants which individually have their own vibe and delicious menu. The best part of our trip was the Sunrise Canoe, which was much more than just a ride in a boat. Our Hawaiian guides passionately shared the island's history and it was the most memorable experience of our vacation. I highly recommend the resort.

We stayed at Mauna Lani in May and it genuinely exceeded expectations. The resort has this rare combination of being completely relaxed while still feeling elevated. Nothing feels stuffy, but everything feels intentional. If you're debating whether it's worth it, it is. The staff is the real differentiator. Every single department, the adult pool team, both bars, housekeeping, even the pickleball coach, was warm, attentive, and clearly took pride in what they do. Our pickleball coach in particular was so personable he made that afternoon one of the most memorable parts of the trip. Don't skip the courts. Food and drinks are excellent. Make a reservation at HaLani before you arrive. The food was a highlight and the drinks matched. The pool bar and main bar were both consistently good throughout the stay. Take advantage of the complimentary shuttle service. They pick you up in clean, new vehicles and will take you anywhere on property including the fitness center, but also off property for dinner. We had a reservation at Brown's Beach House about 10 minutes away and they took us door to door. That kind of convenience at no extra cost is a nice touch that adds up over a few days. One honest tip: avoid the coffee shop. On our first morning my wife and I each ordered an iced latte and neither one was drinkable. We left them on the table and didn't go back for the rest of the trip. For a resort operating at this level it stood out, and not in a good way. On the room temperature, we kept the AC and fan on max the entire stay and still needed the balcony door open to stay comfortable. In May it was manageable. I'd think twice about a summer trip until that gets sorted. Neither of those things would stop us from coming back. Mauna Lani is a 10/10 resort with a couple of areas still catching up to the rest of the experience.
