A sprawling Big Island estate once owned by the late Lisa Marie Presley is coming on the market for $17.5 million, offering more than 8,000 square feet of living space inside the ritzy Mauna Lani Resort enclave on Hawai‘i’s coveted Kohala Coast. Known as Hale Ohi‘a, the palatial residence sits on roughly two-thirds of an acre along the resort’s 12th fairway, where views stretch toward the Pacific and the volcanic peaks of Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa.
According to listing agent Paul Stukin of Deep Blue HI, Presley, who died in 2023 at 54, held the property through the Promenade Trust from 2010 to 2015, using it primarily as a private island retreat for friends and family. The estate is now owned by Mike and Patricia Splinter. Mike is the former chairman and CEO of semiconductor giant Applied Materials, and the couple—well known in Silicon Valley philanthropic circles—purchased the property in 2015.

Patricia said she first encountered the home months before they bought it. “Interestingly, the first time I saw the house was eight months before we purchased it, in a video. Even then, I could immediately imagine our entire family there—siblings, children, and eventually grandchildren. The home has a wonderful balance of expansive gathering spaces and quiet private areas where everyone can retreat and recharge.”
Spanning about 8,200 square feet, the home includes six bedrooms, seven full bathrooms, and one half-bath. One of its defining architectural elements is the extensive use of native ‘ōhi‘a wood—more than 250 logs were incorporated into the structure, forming soaring columns that rise through the home’s expansive living areas. Because ‘ōhi‘a harvesting is now heavily restricted, replicating that level of craftsmanship today would be near impossible.
Other traditional Hawaiian materials and high-end finishes include African mahogany cabinetry, kiawe hardwood floors, Italian porcelain, and slabs of onyx and tiger-eye stone. Custom koa furnishings further anchor the home in local design traditions.

A large lanai gives way to koi ponds, waterfalls, and a resort-style pool and spa positioned to capture views toward the ocean. The primary suite features dual lanais and sightlines toward both the Pacific and the island’s volcanic peaks.
Over the past decade, the house has served as a gathering place for the Splinters’ extended family. “The home is magical for hosting family and friends,” Mike told Robb Report. “It was designed for gathering—large, welcoming spaces where everyone naturally comes together. At the same time, it’s equally perfect for quiet moments, like sitting on the lanai with a book and listening to the breeze in the palms.”
“The Hawaiians call it the spirit of Ohana—a sense of family and belonging—and that feeling is very real in this house,” Patricia added.
After more than a decade of ownership, the couple says the timing now feels right to pass the property along. “We’ve enjoyed the home immensely for the past eleven years,” Mike said. “As our children have grown and their lives have become busier, they aren’t able to visit as often as they once did.”

Ownership includes access to the Mauna Lani Beach Club, an oceanfront facility reserved for residents and guests of the resort community.
Stukin said the property’s connection to the Presley family has also drawn global interest. “The history has definitely influenced interest. When you have one of America’s greatest icons of pop culture associated with an important home like this, the phone rings from around the world with qualified buyers who share the same love for the islands as Elvis and his family.”
The property is co-listed with Yvonne Khouri-Morgan of Corcoran Pacific Properties. According to the listing team, rebuilding a home of similar scale and craftsmanship today could easily cost between $25 million and $30 million.
