The beachfront units, which range from studios to four-bedroom units, are managed by Prince Resorts Hawaii’s Mauna Kea Residences in partnership with East West Hospitality of Colorado, with rates ranging from $700 per night to $4,000 per night.

“East West Hospitality is thrilled to be able to add these thoughtfully designed residences to our growing inventory of luxury vacation rentals,” East West Hospitality CEO & President Colleen Weiss-Hanen, said in a statement. “The Hapuna Beach Residences offer a truly private & exclusive vacation experience in this coveted destination.”

Sales of the Hapuna Beach Residences — 68 luxury condo units in a former tower of what is now the Westin Hapuna Beach Resort — began in 2018. Sales of 24 of the units have closed in 2020 and 2021 for prices ranging from $1.5 million to $7.99 million, according to public records.

The developer, La Jolla, California-based West Point Investment Corp., is using the remaining units for the vacation rental pool.

West Point Investment Corp., and financial partner Angelo, Gordon & Co. of New York bought the hotel’s beachfront tower and 8,000-square-foot Hapuna Beach Villa, which the hotel had marketed as its presidential suite, in 2016 for $65 million.
