The ambiance and overall property is truly amazing and beautiful. It has the best vibe of an older era of resorts, which we loved for our honeymoon. Views and sunsets are epic. Food and service is great. Plantings inside the hotel need an upgrade and a few things in our room needed fixing otherwise a perfect week. Best of all, it has the best beach on the big island in my view.

Top notch service at this island resort
Everything was amazing…from check-in, beach staff, Hau Tree & Manta staff, valets. Only negative was the hours for the Copper Bar. No food until late in the day so we never got to eat there. Sad to leave, will definitely return, and highly recommend!

The best keeps getting better
This is one of my favorite places to stay. MK is a vintage hotel from the 50s that is meticulously maintained. The beach is unparalleled if you’re looking for a serene setting. Thanks to its vintage status, the beach is just steps away. Service is always terrific and friendly. I’ve also noticed that the quality of food seems to be improving which was one area I wasn’t as crazy about in past stays.
Mauna Kea beach is pristine and typically calm.
