Sun Cottage
Nestled in the heart of Mauna Lani on the Big Island, offers an idyllic retreat for up to six guests. This three-bedroom, three-bathroom, single-story home captures the essence of sophisticated island living, with no shared walls or stairs, providing both privacy and ease. Its modern Polynesian design is complemented by an open floor plan and luxurious travertine flooring throughout. The gourmet kitchen, complete with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, invites guests to prepare island-inspired meals, while the great room seamlessly extends onto the lanai through a stunning sliding glass wall, creating an indoor-outdoor oasis. The backyard lanai, surrounded by lush tropical landscaping, provides a tranquil space to relax or dine alfresco with stylish seating and a high-end BBQ grill. Two airy master suites with King beds and spa-like ensuite bathrooms ensure a restful stay, while a third bedroom with Twin XL beds (convertible to a King) also features its own private bath. Luxurious linens, premium toiletries, and thoughtful amenities enhance the experience, the perfect home away from home for your Big Island adventure.

Location
Inside the destination
Neighborhood: Mauna Lani Resort - Sun Cottage is within the Mauna Lani resort, close to both Auberge and Fairmont Hotels. A short drive away are six of the most spectacular beaches in Hawaii, including Beach 69, Hapuna beach and the breathtaking Mauna Kea Beach. - The Kohala coast is a golfer's paradise with seven challenging courses all within seven miles of our villa. - Minutes down the street is the Shops at Mauna Lani where you can find supermarket, coffee shops, restaurants, clothing and accessory stores, art, and free weekly entertainment in the evenings. There are three wonderful shopping areas in the resorts: Shops at Mauna Lani, King Shops and Queens Shops. They include groceries, restaurants and retail stores. They are within walking or biking distance from most of our vacation homes. - The resorts were designed to avoid overcrowding the beaches with condo towers and other developments. The gated communities are all set back from the beaches a bit to make sure the beach experience is amazing. From many of the homes you can walk to a beach in 15 minutes or bike ride. - The Kilauea volcano is 90 miles away behind two 13,000 foot mountains and has been very quiet for the last year. Even during the eruption event in 2018 it did not affect our side of the Island. The National Park is open and it is fascinating to explore, go for a hike or take an aerial tour. It is part of what makes the Big Island unique and should not be missed. - The Kona (KOA) airport is the closest to the resorts. It is a 25-35 min drive to the vacation rentals. It is an international airport with direct flights from LA, SF, San Diego, Sacramento, Portland, Seattle, Denver, Dallas, Phoenix, San Jose, Oakland, Anchorage, Vancouver and Tokyo. There are also direct flights to Oahu, Kauai, and Maui.
