We had a great time staying on this property! We especially love the pool, and used it throughout our stay. The kitchen is well stocked with a lot of appliances and dishes. We had a party of eight, and there were plenty of dishes for all of us. The layout is different, with bedrooms all having their own outside entrances. That might be a challenge if you have kids in the group. It worked well for us with couples and grown kids. The property could use some updates in the kitchen and bathrooms, but it was still comfortable. Overall, we were very satisfied with the hosts and the property and would stay again!

This property did not meet expectations based on the listing photos. The home is heavily worn, with uncomfortable couches, broken poolside furniture, and very poor mattress quality—one bed had a large sinkhole with mattress pads stacked on top. One bedroom near the garage had geckos present, and dishes in the cabinets were dirty and required washing before use. The house clearly needs significant updates and improved maintenance. You are paying for the location, not the quality of the accommodations.

The house was perfect for our family. There was a lot of space for each of us to get enjoy time together and apart. We enjoyed the outside and pool the most. It was a little odd accessing the rooms from the outside breezeway but it ended up giving us each our own privacy.

Beautiful and well maintained garden, large clean pool. The owner was very responsive and everything was ready when we arrived : crib, welcome basket, flowers...

Hawaii Family vacation

Our family had a fabulous time staying at Heidi’s gorgeous Mauna Kea home. The view of the ocean is spectacular as you enjoy the warm swimming pool. The house was very well equipped with everything you could think of to make our stay comfortable. We took advantage of the Mauna Kea Residence package and it was well worth it to have easy access to the gorgeous beaches, pools and gym. We would love to come back here in the future.

We really enjoyed our time at this property. Beautiful gardens, fantastic view and the pool was great. Location!! The house could benefit from revised lighting and is due for updates to the bathrooms and kitchen, but these points did not negatively impact the enjoyment of our vacation. Super cool floor plan with private entrances to the suites made it feel like everyone had their own little cabana and each had its own AC unit and ceiling fan so everyone could adjust accordingly.Communication with Heidi was easy and prompt. we hope to return for another stay.

Hawaiian Memories

The Mauna Kea home is great for a family of up to eight. Sleeping quarters are a plus. It has plenty of room for entertaining. The pool is large with room to hang out. The views are amazing from the home. Just a few minutes from the two adjacent hotels. You cannot beat the home and its location. Just about everything you would need is found in the home.

Great house & location

We’ve been coming to the Mauna Kea for many years & decided to rent a house this time. The house was perfect for 2 families w/ 4 teenage boys. The kitchen has everything you need and the washer/dryer was nice too. Lots of space & privacy w/ the separate bedrooms. The pool is nice for the kids to hang out in late afternoon while adults can relax and watch the sunset. The amenities of the resort are all top notch. Beautiful beach w/ reef to snorkel, tennis, and fun golf course. We would definitely rent this house again.

All questions were answered promptly by the owner. The lot is beautiful....sunsets and full moon viewings were spectacular. Access to the Mauna Kea Resort was an added bonus, but a bit costly. Any issue we had was resolved by Heather. Previous reviews stated property decor a bit dated, so that was expected and not an issue for us. A very memorable vacation for our family!

Special location with a pool on the Mauna Kea property

We had a great trip. The owner and her local manager were both a delight to work with. Having a 4BR home with a pool and an ocean view on the Mauna Kea property is a special treat -- and you get the opportunity to obtain resort privileges during your stay which means parking access at both Mauna Kea and Hapuna (makes going to the beach so easy). The photos are accurate -- this home is still in the original style of the Mauna Kea property, so while the bathrooms and kitchen are not recently remodeled, the price is much more affordable than many other homes with a pool in this location.

Mauna Kea

This is a well-kept house is in a lovely gated golf course community. The layout is great, the furniture is solid, the kitchen has everything we needed to cook and BBQ. The bathrooms have lots of thick, high quality towels and there is a supply of beach towels for the pool. The local Manager is friendly and helpful and when we had a request he responded within minutes. Everything was clean and appealing. The one thing that needs updating is the entertainment system; the TV was so old that we were unable to hook up our computer to stream our Netflix etc on it.

Scorpions and leaky roof

The setting and use of Mauna Kea property is the best thing about this rental. The house itself is extremely dated and has issues regarding that. Sliding doors warped and difficult to open, roof leaked in every room with rainstorm and my husband was stung by a scorpion in the bed on the second night. Property manager was quick to respond to issues and provided support but I would not rent this property again

I'm sorry that our home didn't meet your expectations. The photos of our home which are on the website are recent and accurately show its' classic architectural style. We have guests every year who love our home and not only return, but refer their friends and family. One sliding glass door you mentioned in need of repair, had the bottom rollers replaced during your stay. Although the house has monthly pest control service, unfortunately, this can't prevent insects from entering through open doors, as is true of any property in the tropics. During extreme rainfall, there is a leak in one room and roof repairs are in process.
