I’d consider Mauna Kea Beach Hotel, Autograph Collection if you want a stay right by the beach. The spa is a nice bonus.

More about this place

Mauna Kea Beach Hotel, Autograph Collection is a landmark Kohala Coast resort fronting a sheltered crescent of white sand. Its mid-century character, art collection and refined service suit travelers seeking a distinctive luxury stay rather than a generic large resort.

Rooms, pools, golf, tennis, spa facilities and restaurants are arranged around the beach and landscaped slopes. Calm-day swimming, sunset walks and evening manta viewing make the shoreline central to the experience.

Choose Mauna Kea for heritage, beach access and a quieter sense of place. The remote setting rewards travelers who plan deliberate resort time and keep a car for wider island outings.
