The Hula Hula ranch is a fantastic property. It is inside the Kohala Ranch gated compound and has a breathtaking view of the Pacific. The house itself can comfortably house 12 people. We had 10 people and the Ohana which is a separate house was unoccupied. The house is very spacious and the decor is very well done. The kitchen area is the gathering space with outdoor access to a nightly dinner to the stars. There is also an outdoor grill which we did not use. The pool and hot tub were favorites for the kids and us and we spent quite a bit of time in it. The bedrooms are very spacious and have direct outdoor access to the pool area. All the windows are sliding patio doors and you can truly make your bedroom feel like it is outside. The kitchen has other amenities like a Miele coffee grinder and machine which are important for connoisseurs like myself. For beaches, Hapuna Beach is 15 mins which is arguably the best beach on the Big Island. There is a Foodland about 20 mins away in Mauna Lani and very convenient for groceries. We were able to see everything within a few hour drive from the ranch - the longest being Volcanoes National Park at about 2.5 hours. This is a luxury property and if you are planning a family retreat - I would highly recommend it.
