The home is absolutely beautiful and for our group of 7, it was more than enough room for all of us to have our space if needed. The great room and kitchen provided plenty of seating when we were together to catch up and trade stories about our families and life's adventures. The home owner was quick to reply fo assistance although they weren't many.

Family Holiday
We had a simply terrific time at Mauna Hale. The property is beautiful and easily fit our family group of 10. The kitchen is amazing and you have everything you’d expect from a luxury property. It is spacious and comfortable with modern amenities. Ski in/out works well for experienced skiers. The free shuttle service comes within 10 minutes of calling and takes you right to the mid mountain beginners area. It was perfect either way! If you are looking for a top notch location in Northstar, this is it.

Beautiful Home
Our family absolutely loved this property. The location and convenience are pretty much unbeatable - such close proximity to the Ritz and its amenities, HOA services are wonderful, frequent plowing, and very clear house instructions. We enjoyed working with Jeanette who is extremely responsive. The house is well kept and just cozy enough. We loved that it didn't feel like a rental, but a carefully curated home. Very practical and warm. Thank you!!

Family of 11 from 3 states, AZ,UT, CA
Mauna Halle is a beautiful home. It worked perfectly for our family of 6 adults and 5 children ages 7-12. Ski-in, Ski-out was unavailable due to lack of snow on close run and lift for that run not opperating. Skiers access to lifts via free shuttle.
We would love to come back to this home again!

Two Thumbs Up!!!
Our family of 10 had a fantastic stay at this property. Beautiful decor, spacious, and perfectly located for those interested in skiing.
We especially enjoyed the open kitchen with absolutely everything you need to cook a gourmet meal, and the bubbling jacuzzi. The attention to details such as jacuzzi towels, makeup towels, and flip flops were greatly appreciated. Jeanette was very responsive to our needs, thank you so much for a memorable stay in this exquisite property!

Perfect home for two families
Our family, (2 teens) stayed here with my Brother-in-law’s family (4 kids, ages 6-12). The layout of the home was great for our group. The great room and kitchen offered the perfect setting for us all to come together to play games and eat after a long day of skiing, but the bedrooms offered privacy when a little downtime was needed. The kitchen had everything we needed. The location was nice too but the Timberline lift was not running so we could ski in but not out. The shuttle to the ritz was very convenient though. Access to the village was a little challenging but regardless we loved the house and would absolutely stay here again.

A Godsent amidst blizzard!
The property is beautiful, very clean, and well stocked with everything you need, from kitchen equipment, cooking needs, to bathroom amenities and even hand warmers! Communication with Jeanette and Torrie is also extremely easy and smooth. This trip we met a blizzard which put the entire Northstar in a shutdown and even roads were closed etc. Jeanette and Torrie were extremely helpful and concerned, and made sure that we were all safe with enough food! They coordinated with the different parties to make sure that our driveway is clear of snow, and constantly checked in to make sure we are okay. Being snowed in for 2.5 days, this house is a Godsent. It's beautiful, spacious, and had everything we needed, and we could really enjoy ourselves even if our holiday plans were all turned upside down.
A combination of beautiful property with even more amazing people owning & managing it, that truly shows during a time of crisis like a blizzard! Definitely coming back and highly recommended to everyone!
