Property is a resort, so Autograph Collection resort benefits apply.
Confirmed list of benefits for Marriott Platinum Elite (and higher) members:
— Welcome Gift of 1000 Marriott Bonvoy points (per stay) OR continental breakfast at Manta Restaurant for member +1 (per day). See post 595 for a recent report of the elite breakfast benefit.
— Eligible for an upgrade and late check-out, if available.
— High-speed internet
Confirmed list of benefits for ALL Marriott Rewards Members:
— Free wifi (3 devices max, also extends out to the beach area)
— 10% discount on breakfast buffet at Manta Restaurant (3/29/21 unsure what is offered as there is no buffet)
— 10% discount for MKBH's twice-weekly Luau dinner and show
— 2 comp rental club sets with 2 paid rounds for golf
— 2 comp tennis racquet rentals
Maximum # in room is THREE (which is strange for a family property), but multiple calls to property have confirmed this/they're holding to it.
02-02-2024 Website now says 3rd and now 4th adult in room is $95 extra per person
Parking:
— Electric car charging stations: 4, For a fee
— On-site parking, fee: 30 USD daily

I called. Max room occupancy is 3...They will make exceptions for 2 small children with 2 adults, but it needs to be done directly with the hotel (special permission at the time of reservation). Both my children are under 12, but are 11 and 9....the agent I was speaking to said that may be too old to make the exception.
Also, ownership is remaining the same...only change is the addition of the Marriott affiliation (so people can earn/spend Marriott points). I don't get that...how can they be Prince and Marriott at the same time?

The Mauna Kea Beach Hotel is currently managed by Prince Hotels, branded as a Prince hotel, affiliated with Preferred Hotel Group, and a participant in the iPrefer Loyalty Program.
When the Mauna Kea Beach Hotel joins the Autograph Collection next month, there are likely to be other changes, even though there's no change in ownership or management.
Also, hotels can have multiple brands/affiliations. For example, there are at least nine hotels that are members of both the Kessler Collection and the Autograph Collection.

There's already a hotel that's "Prince and Marriott at the same time." It's this one:

Booked a few nights in May - as a MR Plat we're supposed to get a breakfast for member + 1, right? I know it says resorts excluded so that's my only worry...

Website shows it as a Cat 7 property. Also shows that a 1-night deposit is charged at time of booking & the deposit is non-refundable if canceled less than 14 days before arrival.
Cheers.
Cheers.

Regular, non-resort full service properties (Marriott, Renn., JW, and Autograph Collection) provide daily lounge/breakfast benefit to Gold Elite and Platinum Elite (except for a short list of properties that provide daily points instead and are listed in the fine print of the rules).
Resorts are specifically exempt. With a few exceptions, resorts do not have lounges and do not provide breakfast or daily points in lieu of breakfast.
Mauna Kea Beach Hotel Autograph Collection offers Stay for Breakfast rates under "Room Packages." Then, of course, breakfast is included. But it's not because of Marriott Rewards status.
If the Mauna Kea turns out to be an exception to the rule, please let us know.

How do you know, or where do you get this information?
It does not appear to be a resort according to:
https://www.marriott.co.uk/hotel-sea...states.resort/
Alternatively: https://www.marriott.com/hotel-searc...states.resort/
I realize it is strange if it isn't a resort but would be great if it wasn't
