Kumulani at Mauna Kea G2

We spent ten days here recently. We’ve been coming to the Big Island since 2001 but had never stayed in the Mauna Kea area - mostly Mauna Lani and the old Kona Village Resort. We have a new favorite! The condo was roomy and comfortable. We had five people and it was great. Only complaint (minor!) - a few more blankets for the beds would be nice.

Having access to the Mauna Kea Beach and Hapuna Prince Beach made this an incredible stay. Truly the best beaches on the island. Condo is close to Kawaihae and not a bad drive to Hawi and Waimea. Great restaurants in all places. Must go to Kohala Burger and Taco, Sushi Rock in Hawi, and Merrimans in Waimea (splurge!).

This was a beautiful home in a great location. My only difficulty was that the WiFi was slow and did not reach the 2nd bedroom adequately. We had an excellent time there and would definitely stay there again!

The condo is very comfortable and clean. We are a family of 6 (4 kids/2 adults) and it worked out pretty well. We thought that the second bedroom had two single beds in it based on the photos we previewed before booking this condo, so, we were surprised that it only had a full size bed in the second bedroom ... that wasn't the best for our our two girls but they made it work. The two couches (den and family room) worked well for our two boys. I was pleasantly surprised by the well-appointed kitchen. The kitchen had so many wonderful appliances and lots of spices/cooking oils/etc. I think this condo would be ideal for two couples if the second bedroom had a queen sized bed. One negative -- the instructions for locating and getting into the condo were hidden inside some correspondence (via a link within an email) from the management company -- so, I think that the management company could communicate these instructions in a more straight forward/obvious manner. Once we got that figured out, we were all set. We highly recommend this condo and would definitely stay there again. Mahalo

We spent 5 days here and it worked perfectly for our family of five. The kitchen had great amenities and the bedrooms and living areas were very nice. We were always on the go so didn't spent much time there during the daytime and we didn't use the pool area, but it was nice to come "home" in the evenings to a nice comfortable condo instead of a small hotel room. There were beach towels for us to use and beach toys for the kids to use. My daughters used the boogie boards which worked well for them. They also used the buckets and other sand toys at the beach. It was also great to have a washer and dryer in the condo. We would definitely stay here again if we ever get back to the Big Island.

Also, I can't say enough good things about the team at the management company. We got in late and had to check out a little late as well and they were very accommodating. Overall, a great experience from the condo itself to the customer service. Would recommend for a family of 5 or 6 or would also work well for 2 couples.
