Nestled within the gated Wai'ula'ula enclave of the Mauna Kea Resort, this three-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath luxury villa seamlessly blends island ease with refined design. After several years of private ownership, this beloved villa has been lovingly refreshed, making its return to our exclusive portfolio.

Great Vacation on the Big Island
This is a great house, we really enjoyed our vacation and we would stay there again. The property management people were easy to work with. We had them deliver groceries ahead of time and that was done flawlessly. The house is great for a larger group - you get the benefit of being together in a house with the amenities of the Mauna Kea. We really enjoyed the plunge pool and the view from the backyard was nice - the golf course, but not too close and the ocean in the distance.
