The Mauna Lani Bay Hotel & Bungalows

We enhanced our stay with access to the Francis Brown Club -- a complete bespoke experience with nightly curated cocktails, and premium appetizers that change daily. The food from breakfast to light lunches is high quality and show cases the talents of the culinary team. The club room features breath taking views of the property, a fun candy room with both sweet and savory treats, and finally a library to enjoy an end of day cocktail. The service is top notch more like an upscale private club where the staff knows your wants and desires before you ask. You feel cared for, appreciated, and genuinely welcomed. There isn't a better experience in Hawaii period.

Had an amazing experience with my family. Made our family feel included and special without feeling anywhere like a "kid hotel". I can't think of a more perfect setup for families in Kona area and we'll be planning to come back again soon!

Location is spectacular. We had an ocean front room and we experienced some amazing sunsets with views of a beautiful beach and palm trees. The room was designed very well. The balcony felt very private because you could not see your neighbors next to you. The staff was incredible and made us feel like we were VIP guests. The food and service at the restaurants were spectacular. Was not an inexpensive trip but I feel the money I spent was worth it for the magical experience my wife and I had. We will fondly remember this trip forever and ever.

The Mauna Lani is the best resort we have ever experienced. The staff was courteous, amenities were amazing, and they perfectly prepared every detail. Water and sunscreen available by the pool, excellent menus, gorgeous scenery. The Mauna Lani golf course is breathtaking! Highly recommend the Mauna Lani. Mahalo!

My husband and I came here for our 30th wedding anniversary in March. We had a wonderful time. When we arrived, our room wasn’t ready and they sent us down to the bar and treated us with drinks and food while we waited. A room overlooked the ocean and the pool area. It was clean and we slept very well in the bed. It had a nice little balcony that we could sit out on and watch the sunset in the evening. They offer complementary snorkel gear to walk over to the bay and snorkel on your own. They also have lots of group activities like sunrise, canoeing, snorkel groups, and paddle boards to use. There is a nice 2 mile walking trail on either side of the resort where I saw many sea turtles and even a whale one morning. The Canoe house restaurant has excellent food for a fancy night out. We will definitely come back again as the staff and the amenities were well worth it.
