One of the classic gems on the Big Island of Hawai’i. I have a detailed review with photos and tips you can read in addition to the video above.
I recommend booking this hotel with a Virtuoso travel agency even if you have enough Bonvoy points or will pay direct for additional VIP perks and benefits. I use Classic Travel which allows me to book online or by phone.

In my opinion, it’s tough to do a place like the Mauna Kea Beach Hotel justice. It has to be seen and felt to be fully appreciated. But you came as close as anyone with this video! Well done.
I totally agree about experiencing this place to fully appreciate it. The design that allows the breeze to pass through and views from just about anywhere on property was really well thought out. Kudos to Edward Charles Bassett the architect and Mr. Rockefeller for having the vision.
No exaggeration; this is my favorite hotel in the world. It’s beautiful, it’s historic, it’s relaxing, and all without being snooty.
Hi Pat, I have hear this exact statement from several other people. During my stay almost everyone I talked to was a multi-time return guest. The vibe is indeed casual cool
