The location and surroundings were so perfect, I would book this hotel again despite being less impressed by the accommodations and staff. We loved being able to walk out the hotel and be on a beautiful beach with clear water, soft sand, and plenty of chairs. The hotel itself felt outdated. The rooms were not what I'd expect based on...

I used to love this hotel. It's location is still nice because it is quiet, and somewhat less accessible than the nearby resorts (Hitlon, Mauna Kea & Hapuna) and thus not as crowded. Despite being a perennial favorite of mine for 17years, it is difficult to note that this hotel is not what it used to be. The accommodations are... More

I rarely write trip adviser reviews, but since I've just come back from The Mauna Lani Bay Hotel and wish I was still there - I feel moved to share my passion with others who may be considering this resort. Where to start? For starters, The Big Island of Hawaii is my favorite because it's the most pristine and less... More

We have been staying at the Mauna Lani on and off for almost 25 years. We had a wonderful time as usual, but I sadly need to report that it is in desperate need of a COMPLETE re do.It is old tired and looks un kept. The pool coping is falling off with black mold all over the coping. The... More

What an amazing place. We got married on the grounds and couldn't be happier. Our 9 year old hasn't stopped talking about the Mauna Launi since. The customer service from the time you drop your luggage off to the time you leave is top notch. They literally treat you like a king or queen. All staff were very friendly and... More

Our son and daughter-in-law treated us to a 13 day four island tour. We stayed at some fantastic Hyatt Hotels on the other three islands but, this property was by far the most awesome. From the time you arrive to the moment that you have to leave, you are treated like royalty. We were lucky to have a ocean front... More

Located on the site of ancient Hawaiian royalty fish ponds that are still maintained now as then, the Mauna Lani Bay Hotel is the crown jewel of the Kona coast. Not a huge mega-resort that has to rely on gimmicky things to get you there, the Mauna Lani is a place of peace and refuge and soul-restorative qualities. Some room... More

An unbelievable weekend at this amazing hotel while enjoying the jazz festival at the Mauna Kea resort. Can't say enough great things about this property. And the second annual jazz fest with JR "volcano" Choy and other Grammy winners!! What an amazing few (3) days. Only 1 thing I would change was that at 10 am I couldn't get a... More

The service and friendliness of the staff were top-notch. On arrival they greet you with ice-cold facecloths to cool you down and a cold glass of a mixture of tropical juices. We had an ocean-front room with a great view. It is so picturesque on the beach in front of our room that this is where they serve dinner to... More
