The Mauna Kea Beach hotel made the difficult decision to close the hotel for an indefinite
period for repairs due to the damage incurred in the October 15th earthquake for the safety
and well being of our guests and staff. For the time being we have closed the hotel in all
electronic booking channels through 2007 and are working hard to contact guests to help them
change their travel plans. We truly appreciate your understanding and patience during this
challenging time, and thank you for your continuing support of Prince Resorts Hawaii. Just
down Kohalas Lava coast, the Mauna Kea Beach Hotel is the kind of place families return to
year after year. Children of long-time guests bring their children, wanting the same room, the
same art on the wall, the same smiling staff. They may admit sheepishly, that once in a while
they try someplace else, but for them, nothing else quite measures up. And small wonder. This
is the elegant, world-class hotel that Laurance Rockefeller built over 30 years ago as the
ultimate family retreat. Today the Mauna Kea Beach Hotel has been restored to its original
splendor and continues to attract sophisticated clientele the world over. The world-renowned
Mauna Kea Beach Hotel is located on beautiful Kauna oa Bay, considered by many to be the
islands single most picturesque beach. Crescent-shaped with pure white sands and shimmering
aqua waters, it is perfect for water sports including swimming, snorkeling, scuba diving,
sailing, kayaking, catamaran riding, whale watching and deep-sea fishing. Even at night,
guests step onto a circular lava outcropping overlooking the Bay, to watch the manta rays swim
beneath. Designed by Robert Trent Jones, SR., the Mauna Kea golf Course remains the standard by
which all other island courses are judged. Utell Superior Selection - Offers the traveler
quality rooms and facilities making their stay, whether business or leisure, relaxing and
comfortable.
