The hotel's $46 million refurbishment includes new rooms, restaurants, bars, adults only pool & spa, due for completion In February 2018.Situated on 32 oceanfront acres, the hotel is nestled in natural bluffs overlooking the silky white sands of Hapuna Beach. In ancient times on the resort site, freshwater springs bubbled to the surface during heavy rainfall. These artesian fountains provided respite and renewal for travellers along the Kohala Coast, hence, the area is named Hāpuna or “spring” (“Spring of life”) in the Hawaiian language.
Your accommodation has been reserved in ocean view rooms and daily breakfast is included.
Two of the great courses you will play during the tournament are located within Mauna Kea Resort.
The 18-hole championship Hapuna Golf Course designed by Arnold Palmer and Ed Seay features stunning ocean views from almost every hole. Next door is the course that set the bench mark of golf in Hawaii, the Robert Trent Jones, Sr.-designed masterpiece Mauna Kea is still considered by many as the best in Hawaii.
