Mauna Lani, Auberge Resorts Collection

Mauna Lani is a holy refuge where generations of families and friends have created memories together on soulful lands previously cherished by the best of Hawaiian monarchy. It is nestled along the spectacular Kohala Coast and in the piko, or center, of five great mountains. From the seat of an outrigger canoe, welcome the morning sun as it rises above the mountain peaks. At the Great Lawn, share a tale with friends both old and new while the sounds of the ocean waves and laughter mingle. At CanoeHouse, where locals have enjoyed the island's abundance for decades, eat in the company of loved ones. You may still feel the same mana, or spiritual force, that initially enthralled historical figures like Francis H. I'i Brown and King Kamehameha I as you stroll along this famed shoreline, breathe the revitalizing salt air, and swim in the clear waters. At Mauna Lani, enduring customs that span several generations of families and friends are established. This holiday season, assemble the 'ohana and travel to the Kohala Coast, where holiday memories are created amid starry nights and sun-kissed sceneries.
