Mauna Kea Resort

Mauna Kea Resort encompasses both Mauna Kea Beach Hotel and Hapuna Beach Prince Hotel. These iconic hotel's share 1,839 acres of oceanfront paradise along the sunny Kohala Coast of Hawaii's Big Island. Laurance S. Rockefeller, who founded The Mauna Kea Beach Hotel in 1965 knew the great beach at Kauna'oa bay also deserved spectacular golf and exceptional dining to accompany the most exclusive and expensive resort of its day. Four decades later, following a $150 million repair and renovation, The Mauna Kea once again stands as a landmark of luxury. The second phase in Rockefeller's creation of Mauna Kea Resort, the Hapuna Beach Prince Hotel was created in 1994. This hotel is perfectly nestled into the bluffs above the #1-rated Hapuna Beach. It presents a flowing, contemporary Hawaiian style where guests on vacation experience the true essence of rejuvenation. With a timeless tradition of aloha, Mauna Kea Resort welcomes generations of guests to come and be inspired by the past, embraced by the moment, enchanted by the warm days and exciting possibilities ahead.
