Rental Details
Rental Overview
Welcome to Wai‘ula‘ula at Mauna Kea---a private, gated community on the Hapuna Golf Course.
Relax in our 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom, 2,100 sqft. condominium and enjoy the many upgrades we’ve added to our home, including hardwood floors, new bedroom carpeting, an updated outdoor kitchen, and more.
As original owners, we selected our 1st floor condo during Wai’ula’ula’s pre-build phase for its 650 sqft. wrap-around lanai, its preferred orientation during Kohala’s windiest days, and its proximity to the community’s recreation center. Our lanai’s northwestern exposure offers views of the ocean, the Kohala coast and, on clear days, the magnificence of Maui’s Haleakala across the channel.
We’ve spared little expense furnishing our home for family and friends, and trust that it will offer you the warmest aloha during your stay on the Big Island. Our unit offers: kitchen bar stools; an indoor dining table; two master suites with king size beds, dual sink bathrooms with a tub and walk-in shower; internet access; multiple 60”+ web-based HDTVs; Polynesian-inspired furnishings, a third bedroom with twin beds and a futon; a Bluetooth sound bar; two Tropitone outdoor tables/chairs on our lanai; an outdoor kitchen with sink, six-burner Weber Summit grill and refrigerator; and finally a wide variety of pool/beach extras, including towels, toys, and boogie boards, etc. We also ensure that our kitchen and laundry are equipped with virtually every necessity to accommodate you during your stay.
As one of the closest units to the community recreation center, you are steps away from a saline infinity pool, hot tub, outdoor showers, indoor lounge with HDTV, BBQ pavilion, toddler’s pool and fitness center. You’re also just a short drive from two of Hawaii's most beautiful white sand beaches at the Hapuna Prince and Mauna Kea resorts.
Should you wish to participate in the resorts’ (Mauna Kea and Westin Hapuna Prince) Amenity Package, a resort fee offers you charging privileges, preferential resort parking, as well as access to each resort’s fitness center, pool, beach towels, chaises and umbrellas. The 2026 base rate fee per household is $225 per day for the entire length of stay. The peak rate fee is $330 per day. Peak rate ($330 per day) dates are as follows:
Spring Break: March 21, 2026 - April 11, 2026
Thanksgiving: November 21, 2026 - November 27, 2026
Festive Season: December 19, 2026 - January 2, 2027
Days pass quickly with: sunrise and Kona coffee; a workout at the gym; a jog to either of the resorts; aerobic/yoga classes; breakfast on our griddle; paddle boarding; snorkeling; swimming; boogie boarding; golf; tennis; lounging on the beach; lunch at Mauna Kea’s Hau Tree beach restaurant; reading on our lanai; exploring the island; drinks, music, and sunsets at Mauna Kea’s Copper Terrace; grilling on our BBQ; dinner on our lanai; a movie on our 65” HDTV; and star gazing into an amazing night sky.
Should you have an interest in our home, we would enjoy setting the stage for you to build your own lasting memories with family and friends at the Mauna Kea!

Reviews
We had a wonderful time. The facilities in the home were all that we needed. Those in the development and the greater community were more than adequate. Things were so good that we found ourselves every day asking ourselves which choice we make today. We will return and definitely advise others to consider it as a place for a vacation. Thank you.
Awesome property, clean, nice, super comfortable. Very easy to access the pool, golf, and beaches. Clean and spacious with all the comforts of home. Having full laundry and a stocked kitchen made things super convenient. Erika the owner and Hilary the on site manager were both available as needed, but not overbearing.Would definitely recommend to friends and we hope to return soon!
Perfect place for our holiday season vacation!
A perfect family getaway!
Wonderful! Close 10 min drive to Hapuna and Mauna Kea resorts/beaches!Appreciate portable cooler for outingsWell stocked kitchenRecommend daily resort access/pass
We absolutely love Wai’ula’ula. This unit is perfect for our family of 8 with plenty of room for all. Well stocked with everything we need. Easy seamless and timely communication with the owner was greatly appreciated. We hope to return soon!
Everything from the communication through the stay was just wonderful! We look forward to coming back.
Loved our stay! Great location and house. Amazing communication from the host.
We have stayed in the Mauna Kea residences before. This is a truly lovely condo. We would love to return again!
Erika is great. Location is convenient. Great place for a family
Very quiet gated area, we enjoyed pool and spa to get away, close to everything
This was our second stay at this property. We are a family of 6 and had my parents join us. This property is perfect for our needs. Had everything and more we could want and is wonderfully maintained. Kitchen well stocked, plenty of towels, and a pack and play for our toddler. The owners were super responsive and when we did have one small issue, the property manager was prompt to respond and made himself available in no time. We absolutely love this location and the amenities and our favorite part is taking advantage of the hotels nearby. We get to enjoy the beaches, beautiful pool but also have plenty of space to relax. Thank you again for another memorable trip to the Big Island, we cannot wait to return once more!
We had a great stay - loved the location right by the pool. Condo has everything you need!
We spent a week at Erika's condo on the Big Island in early April. Great access to Mauna Kea and Hapuna resorts (we got the package allowing full access) and beaches! Tons of space in the condo for our family of 4. Easy drive to a few towns, many restaurants, and grocery store...all with 20 mins.
We loved staying at this property. It's conveniently located across from the Mauna Kea and Hapuna properties. We went to the Mauna Kea daily and loved it. We've stayed in this development before and were familiar with the layout. This property was decorated very nicely and located right by the communal pool/gym. The decor was great and we had everything we needed in the kitchen. Lots of utensils, wine glasses, etc. Erica and the property manager were in contact if we needed it, but we only had a few questions otherwise all the information given prior to arrival was easy to follow. We were traveling with a family of five including three teens kids. Two other families that had nearby properties which made it super fun for the teens and parents to hang out. Highly recommend would definitely stay again!
It was a very relaxing visit with all the amenities very accessible
We just spent our second stay at this great place. Close to amenity center w pool and gym. Quiet, clean. We just love it. Owner and property manager are fantastic.
