We very much enjoyed our stay. Fantastic location within the Mauna Kea Resort, we also paid for access to the resort facilities, which was worth it for our family. It was the best of both worlds, comforts of a larger place to stay, while enjoying resort amenities. Beds were very comfortable and the view is amazing. It was a treat to stay here.

Hi Bruce - thank you for the kind review and we're glad you had an enjoyable visit. We trust your feedback was an honest and candid review based on your experience. Our house rules are important, and as we made you aware after your visit, we were presented with evidence by our property manager that there was a serious violation of those rules during your stay. As you were not amenable to the solution we proposed to you, it is very regrettable that we must inform you that our property will not be available to you for accommodation going forward. Only a few times in the nearly 10 years we have owned this property and been renting it out have we had to take such a step. - Eric and Polly
We’ve stayed here twice. Very comfortable and clean. Well stocked kitchen and beautiful view.

Everything was perfect! The views overlooking the golf course and the ocean made for enjoyable cups of coffee and sunset cocktails! It was clean, the kitchen was well stocked with everything you need. We had an Instacart of groceries delivered. Having access to the Mauna Kea property was a plus. Communication with Polly was fantastic. We will definitely be back!
Well equipped unit that offers great access to Gold Coast beaches and resorts while also offering a chance to get away from the rush.

Amazing view, quiet location, close to incredible beaches and snorkeling. We love Mauna Kea!
Well appointed kitchen, spacious living area, comfortable beds. Quiet at night but close enough to Mauna Lani and Waikoloa for shopping and restaurants. We were at Hapuna Beach each day and explored many great snorkeling beaches. Mauna Kea cannot be beat!

About the host
Hosted by Eric and Polly Fox
We are a family in the San Francisco Bay Area who have loved Hawaii and the Mauna Kea our entire lives. Polly spent 5 years growing up on the island of Oahu. Eric's parents honeymooned at the Mauna Kea when it first opened, and the family vacationed there when he was growing up. We look forward to sharing this magical place with you.
Why they chose this property
We bought this property to enjoy a place where families come once and stay for generations. We loved that this unit had a long and successful rental history, with many guests coming back year after year. It was meaningful to us that so many people have felt the same attraction to Hawaii that we feel.
What makes this property unique
We like to imagine our guests experiencing some of our favorite moments - the simple joy of sitting on the lanai with feet kicked up, sharing the company of loved ones and soaking in a stunning view of a Hawaiian sunset as the sound of the palm tree leaves flutter in the breeze. The condo is spacious and relaxing while providing all of the amenities of two first class resorts.
