Founded in 1965, the Mauna Kea Beach Hotel was once the most exclusive and expensive resorts of its day and, following extensive renovations nearly 50 years on, the hotel remains a landmark on the Kohala Coast, the golf capital of Hawaii.
The Mauna Kea has its own par-72 golf course in addition to the Seaside Tennis Club, a fitness centre, spa, kids' club, boutiques, outdoor swimming pool and a wide array of water sports. The resort features a number of restaurants where international cuisine is combined with locally-sourced Kohala Coast ingredients, from Lu'au and Clambake to Monettes and Manta.
The Copper Terrace and Pavilion Wine Bar also provide attractive settings for pre- and post-dinner drinks. Each featuring a private lanai, the 258 bright and airy guest rooms overlook either the ocean or golf course and amenities include a flat screen HDTV, iPod clock radio, Wi-Fi, mini-fridge and coffee maker.
