Nearest Beach : beach at 0.8 Miles
Car: recommended

Before you get too comfortable in this lush resort paradise, don’t forget that the Big Island offers an abundance of adventures found only on this island, such as the very active Kilauea Volcano, the Keck Observatories on Mauna Kea Volcano, the verdant Hamakua coast and the Coffee Plantations of the South Kona Coast. All of these are good day trips from your villa. Within the resort you can hike through ancient petroglyph trails and visit the ancient fish ponds of the Kings of Hawaii. Marlin fishing and whale and dolphin boat tours are at your back door as well as night time Manta Ray viewing. At the end of a busy day treat yourself to the award winning spas at the Mauna Lani Bay Hotel and the Fairmont Orchid Hotel.

If you’re like most people, it’s hard to get organized and learn the lay of the land in the limited time that a vacation often affords. We will, at your request, provide you with some of our favorite day-itineraries and suggestions for activities and restaurants.

Further details for this vacation condo rental in Mauna Lani, Hawaii

Custom furnishings - high style, quality, comfort: We expended a great deal of effort selecting high quality, high style, comfortable furnishings. The works of local island artists and sculptors abound and, of course, there is a beautiful hand crafted 'Hula Lamp'.

Your huge kitchen is well stocked with all the gadgets and equipment that you could want. Miles of granite counters and stainless steel appliances will please the chef. We know you will enjoy the outdoor kitchen with Viking gas BBQ grill, rotisserie, and sink, for 'dining alfresco' after a busy day of island activities. Enjoy the view of the waterfall cliffs, pool and swaying palms.

Hale Hula local Mauna Lani Resort amenities: Settle for 'only the best' on your Big Island getaway. The Mauna Lani resort has long been the choice of those in the know, because of its rich traditions and ties to the Hawaiian royalty. Within the resort are two of the finest hotels on the island (Mauna Lani Bay and the Fairmont Orchid), two of the most acclaimed golf courses (Francis H. I’i Brown North and South Courses), The Mauna Lani Sports and Fitness Club, miles of white sand beaches, nine restaurants, including Tommy Bahama, Ruth's Chris, Canoe House, and Brown's Beach House, two award winning spas, a brand new shopping mall for the discerning shopper, and a well-stocked specialty grocery store, all within a short walking/driving distance from Hale Hula.

Hale Hula Villa is your Home Away From Home: First and foremost, is your choice of a home away from home.

Proximity to the pool is just right to provide soothing views and convenience without the noise.

Simply Breathtaking

Review Submitted: October 1, 2011 Date of Stay: August 2011
Aloha Mike and Cathy

Words cannot describe how we enjoyed our stay at your lovely condo. From the first step in the condo till the last made our stay on Big Island perfect. The condo's decor was exceptional, luxurious and classy. The Fairways complex is well maintained, secure and our children loved the swimming pool. The private beach club was one of the best places to snorkel in our three weeks in Hawaii and we snorkelled nearly every day. The condo's location to all of the amenities, beaches and sightseeing was perfect. When we return to Big Island we will surely give Mike and Cathy a call.

Outstanding vacation

Review Submitted: September 14, 2011 Date of Stay: August 2011
Our second visit to this lovely home was even better than last year. The home is so comfortable. Nothing has been overlooked. Owners have created an ambiance that allowed us to relax and recharge. We enjoyed our morning coffee on the bedroom lanai overlooking beautiful landscape-snorkeling at the beach club-swimming in the pool-and we managed a few new side trips. We look forward to a return visit to this villa.

Highest Possible Recommendation

Review Submitted: September 3, 2011 Date of Stay: August 2011
We have rented over a dozen houses/condos over the last few summers and our stay at the Fairways at Mauna Lani easily ranks among the best. Even before we arrived we felt the "aloha spirit". Mike and Cathy were always responsive and pleasant to converse with.

Hale Hula Villa itself is gorgeous; the perfect base for Big Island adventures. It is instantly apparent that you are staying in a home and not "just" a rental property. Foodland (2 minute drive), the well appointed kitchen and gas grill make eating in convenient. When you are ready to dine out there are good choices right in the villa and great choices less than 30 minutes up the mountain in Waimea.
There are half a dozen world class beaches for swimming and snorkeling within 15 miles of the villa. And when you are ready for more adventure, zip lines, helicopter rides, hiking and more are all short drives away.

Mahalo Mike and Cathy; we will definitely be back!

Wonderful vacation spot

Review Submitted: August 3, 2011 Date of Stay: July 2011
Mauna Lani is an excellent location to enjoy the Kona coast and this villa was beautiful, pristine and comfortable. The photos really don't do it justice. The owners, Mike and Cathy were a pleasure to work with and provided just about every amenity you can imagine. It was great to travel light, knowing there was a washer and dryer available, especially after beach trips. The kitchen was well equipped for any type of cooking. The private beach is gorgeous with great snorkeling and activities such as kayaking and paddle boarding.
We also went to the Luau at the Fairmont, 5 min away and were regular customers at the Farmlands market. We hope to return someday, this was such a relaxing vacation. Highly recommended!
