About this apartment rental
New paint, new bathrooms, new floors throughout. Exceptional townhouse condominium in the Colony Villas at Waikoloa Beach Resort, a gated community on the perimeter of the Kings golf course in the sunny crescent of the Big Island with sunshine 350 days a year. Two pools and tennis courts on the property, as well as two golf courses. Shopping, restaurants, and grocery stores are close by--everything you might need you'll be able to find within the resort's many shops and stores or at the nearby Waikoloa Hilton Resort.
Lots of sun. Upstairs and downstairs lanai. Two bedrooms, two bathrooms (renovated 10/22), laundry room, washer/dryer, and full kitchen. High ceilings and island design. Excellent home base for seeing and exploring the island. All carpet and flooring has been replaced in stages since 2018. Entire interior repainted 09/2023. Volcanoe view from upstairs bedroom. Totally quiet. You won't hear a thing.
A-Bay is the nearest beach, located within the resort, a 20 minute walk. Lava Lava is a fantastic open air restaurant right on the beach. Hapuna, Mauna Kea, and Puako beaches are nearby.
Barbecues are located on the property poolside. Excellent grocery store in the resort or nearby in Waikoloa town.
Big Island is full of things to see and do and our condominium is so comfortable to come home to after a day out.
Big Island is rich in history, culture, and natural beauty. From the beaches to the volcanoes, the botanical gardens, and the wonderful farmers' market in Hilo.
We welcome you to the Big Island to enjoy our island home.

Our overall Waikoloa getaway experience was very enjoyable. Property is located at the end of subdivision near to back entrance or exit gate. Which makes it accessible and convenient. Home is very inviting and comfortable. Shopping centers are within distance. Thank you so much for having us!!!

Conveniently located, clean, comfortable.

Great location and amenities. There were a couple of issues.
Chemicals: Mainly an issue since I had young children. A minor recommendation would be to have chemicals stored somewhere other than in easily accessible cupboards, such as under the kitchen sink. My 1 year old daughter grabbed an open container of powdered cleaning product. This obviously was on me for not having my eyes on her at that moment, but given that others may stay with their children there, I thought I would mention it.
The AC: It is controlled by a Nest thermostat, which is locked. The condo temperature was set at 76 degrees on auto mode, which was much warmer than my 1 year old daughter could handle. We are from Hilo and are used to warmer temperatures during the day, but not 76 at night!
I contacted the owner (or manager, not sure) to see if they could turn the temp down. Initially, I was told that they found the temperature comfortable and that energy costs are high. They offered to turn it down to 74, which I said was fine. Within a few hours, the temperature was turned back to 76 F. Since my daughter is young, I again requested they turn it down for her nighttime safety. Since the contact was on mainland, they didn't turn the temperature down till 2 in the morning. We went through the same thing the next day.
It was weird and Orwellian (like big brother) to have someone else control the temperature of a condo you are renting. I understand cost, but we paid a lot to stay here.

We stayed at Puako. It was wonderful and relaxing. The condo is in a very convenient location. It was also nice and quiet.

The condo was just what it said it was, a really nice home feeling with everything you need and more. The host was super easy to deal with, check in and out instructions were super clear. We really enjoyed our stay. Definitely will be back.

Well they spent two whole days working on the back gate but still never got the entry gate to open. Still blocked off with pylons. Also the downstairs toilet is a bit wobbly. If the next occupants could pick up some pepper that would be great. The place has salt but no pepper. The beach chairs are a bit worn but still functional. Other then these things it is a great place to stay and we would definitely come back again.

Large townhouse with everything you could ever need. The kitchen is well organized with labels. The area is really quiet. Would definitely stay there again.

Paul's unit was beautifully appointed. It had everything. A very well stocked kitchen and perfectly located. Only complaint was the blinds in the kitchen...very difficult to use to get out onto the lanai. Paul was easy to deal with and very accommodating. Would highly recommend this unit to anyone.
4.9
This is a very nice place to stay. I was a bit concerned about the check-in ahead of time, but it worked out perfectly.
The unit is beautiful and very upscale. There was an abundance of beach towels which was very much appreciated.
The grounds and facilities available in this complex are very well kept up.
It was too bad that the back entrance gate was not working as this unit is located very near that back gate. Hopefully the complex can get it up to speed in the near future.
I would definitely recommend this unit and hopefully we can stay here when return to the Big Island.

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Waikaloa Colony Villas! The property itself is updated, clean, and had everything we needed for our stay. There was plenty of space for our family of four (kids, ages 15 and 10). There are beach chairs, umbrellas, towels, boogie boards, a cooler, etc. as well. The two pools, hot tub, and workout center in the gated community was a nice touch. The unit could be a little cooler; it was difficult to sleep at night. We messaged Paul around day 4 and he was prompt to knock the temp down a bit for us to make it more comfortable which was wonderful.
The directions on the listing takes you to the back entrance which is coned/blocked off and cannot be accessed, so make sure you enter through the opposite gate.
Overall, it was an amazing trip. Our family would absolutely stay here again!

We stayed in the property in August 23. The location is very convenient to Hapuna beach and Mauna Kai resort. The condo is in excellent condition and has everything you need for the comfortable stay. The AC and the fan are sufficient to cool off the rooms. We enjoyed the stay very much!

We looked for properties in Waikoloa, most required at least 5 nights. We were staying 4 nights in Hilo and needed only 3 nights in Waikoloa. So grateful that we were able to rent this clean, well stocked, condo. The host was attentive and responded to us when we asked that the A/C be turned down a little more. We will return!

This is an amazing VRBO located in the resort area of Waikoloa. It is located next to the posh Hilton resort and close to the Mauna Lani resort as well. Both have beautiful grounds and nice beaches. Paul is very organized (kitchen cabinets label where everything goes) and the place is well stocked. The kitchen has everything you need in case you want to prepare your own meals. There are plenty of beach towels and beach gear.
It is very modern and spacious. There is a nice pool right around the corner. The upstairs bathroom has an awesome double shower. Also, a full bath downstairs as well. Easily accommodates a family of four. Highly recommend this place. Thanks Paul.

We wasn't aware the pool near us was not open for use.

It was a great space to spend with my mother who has a heart condition that interferes with activity. She could easily relax, have everything she needed on one floor. Unfortunately for us our pool was closed for repairs and the other pool was too far for her to walk to. There was also no place to park the car near the other pool that didn't have a 20 minute time limit. She didn't want me to risk getting towed, or have me drop her off, park at our unit and walk back to her. Because I would have to leave her at the unit, I only went to the pool/spa tub twice for a short period during our 1 week stay. I was also uncomfortable drinking the water from the fridge because the filter needed to be changed. My mother also uses the TV to help her fall asleep and the TV in her bedroom didn't work. We messaged the property owner on the TV and the water filter and we were thanked for providing the information.

The condo was beautiful, clean, and well-located. It comes with all the amenities and beach supplies that you'll need :)

We really enjoyed our stay. Paul is great and really responsive to requests.

It all went well once we cleared up the parking pass concern. Condo was comfortable and very clean. The one regret for us was that we would have preferred to turn the air conditional off completely and been able to have windows and doors open a little bit to get fresh air and enjoy the climate there. The set temp was much higher than we prefer but we could not control that at all. But, since we were rarely there except to sleep, it all was okay and the condo had everything we needed in the kitchen, etc.

Pros -
Property was well maintained and very clean.
Nice location in gated community, very close to pool.
Cons-
Thermostat locked on 76. Felt stuffy inside condo at times with no way to adjust.
Hot/Cold water hookups to washer were backwards, making washing clothes difficult as everything was rinsed in hot water.
4.9
We had a great stay in this condo. Check in was very simple. The location within the resort is fantastic, right by the back swimming pool. The condo was very clean and had all the necessary items we needed in the kitchen and for the beach. The bathrooms had both been recently redone and were very nice, however there is no bathtub if you're traveling with an infant. There are removable showerheads in both bathrooms that were helpful for bathing our 3 and 5 year olds. We did have a technical problem (completely out of anyone's control) while in the condo and Paul was very responsive in resolving the issue.
We would definitely stay here again!
4.9
Property was awesome. Only complaint would be not having the tv in the bedroom downstairs and in the living room the tv was only streaming that we could figure out. TV’s too complicated.
4.9
Quiet, Clean, Roomy townhome with beautiful pool and grounds. Great for evening walks to shopping and A bay for sunsets. Centrally located for many restaurants and beaches. The unit has beach gear and a well supplied kitchen. We bought most of our food at Costco and cooked/gas grilled at pool.
4.9
We had been planning this trip for a while, but kept postponing due to COVID-19 restrictions on travel. We were not disappointed at all once we finally arrived at Paul's condo in Waikoloa. Very clean, comfortable, and well situated. Excellent check in and check out process. Paul was attentive the few times we needed to contact him. We have zero complaints. Beautiful bathrooms 😉
4.9
Our family enjoyed the stay at this condo that is clean, convenient to all the great activities including the pool, and has a lot of beach items available to borrow. We enjoyed our stay!

Great property to base out of on Big Island
This property fit our family's needs perfectly. Close to public access beach and it was great to be near a pool and grills. Would suggest clearer directions and how to get into the unit (bit of confusion on duplicate lock boxes) and could have used more basics supplies (paper towels, soap bars) since we stayed for a week. But overall a great property and experience.

This property was clean and well stocked except there was no Kleenex. Check in/out was easy and convenient. We’ve stayed at a few different units before and this one was really good. Would stay again. Kitchen sink faucet was leaking, but other than that, we had an excellent time.
