“Properties like this are so rare to come up. What we find is, people like to come back to where they’re most comfortable and where they have great memories. This home offered Lisa Marie and her family that privacy and that Hawaiiana that they grew up with through her father’s love of the Islands.”

Listed at $17.5 million, the former estate of the late Lisa Marie Presley at Mauna Lani Resort on the Kohala Coast of Hawaiʻi Island has drawn more than a dozen serious inquiries since coming to market in November. Prospective buyers from the U.S. Mainland, Europe, and Japan have scheduled private tours in the weeks ahead. Presley acquired the property in 2005 for $12.9 million and sold it a decade later to Michael and Patricia Splinter, the Silicon Valley philanthropists behind Applied Materials.
The 0.66-acre compound comprises three residences — a primary home, an ʻohana suite, and a guest cottage above the garage — with six bedrooms, seven-and-a-half bathrooms, and 8,187 square feet of living space. The Splinters invested millions in renovations to the kitchen, bathrooms, flooring, and furnishings. The grounds include private waterfalls, koi ponds, a resort-style pool and spa, and panoramic ocean views, with access to the exclusive Mauna Lani Beach Club.
Paul Stukin, founder and CEO of Deep Blue HI, co-lists the property with Yvonne Khouri-Morgan of Corcoran Pacific Properties. The sustained international interest reflects what continues to define the upper tier of the Kohala Coast market: buyers drawn not only to the physical estate but to its provenance — a rare combination of cultural legacy, architectural intimacy, and access to one of Hawaiʻi Island’s most private resort communities.
