Luxury Kolea Golf & Hilton Pass, Partial Ocean View, 2 Min to Beach & Clubhouse

Villa Makai at Kolea, an ocean and beach front resort located on Anaeho’omalu Bay (A Bay), is the perfect spot for a refreshing get-away or the ultimate location for your home-away-from-home! Just a few minutes' walk from A-Bay, the only white sandy beach at Waikoloa Beach Resort, Villa Makai @ Kolea offers a quaint and luxurious escape to the beautiful island of Hawai'i without compromising amenities. Whether you're looking to explore the many adventures across the island or for a luxurious rest & recuperation escape without having to venture far, Villa Makai @ Kolea is your ideal stay for peaceful, serene, and calming evenings to wind down.

Located within the Waikoloa Beach Resort, Kolea is an easy stroll to the many amenities and restaurants that the resort and hotels have to offer. Kolea is approximately a quarter mile from the Marriott and the Kings’ and Queens’ Shops, and less than a mile away from the Hilton Waikoloa Village - a fun, friendly, sprawling 62-acre ocean front property full of culture, poolside relaxation, and a chance to meet marine wildlife up close. Your stay at Villa Makai includes free access to the Hilton pool pass, which comes with self-parking validation. Whether you opt to enjoy day time activities at the Hilton Village or elsewhere on the island or resort, the pleasantly quaint Villa Makai serenely welcomes you home for dinner grilled on the gourmet Viking out on the lanai or at one of the numerous ocean/beachfront dining available within 15 minutes' walk or 10 minute drive. Enjoy the rest of your evening stargazing along a beachfront infinity pool and/or lava rock Jacuzzi at the Kolea Beach Club, a 2 minutes' stroll away from Villa Makai. The Beach Club also boasts a sand-bottom keiki lagoon with a waterfall, and an open-air fitness hale and a shaded and fanned lounging area.

Villa Makai is a well-kept and clean home decorated with Tommy Bahama furniture and top quality electronics, including smart TVs, a laptop computer, printer, Wi-Fi, and home theater system. A wide variety of kitchen appliances are available to make you feel right at home. Wake up to complimentary cups of Keurig, or head to the Coffee belt or a local farmer's market to pick up your preferred beans to make cappuccino or traditional coffee using the cappuccino maker or French press. Beach toys will be waiting for you from snorkeling gear for all ages to boogie boards, beach chairs, coolers, and beach towels. Nothing is forgotten from Scrabble and Big Island Monopoly for those quiet evenings to a high chair and Pac-n-Play for young children. Extras such as binoculars, first aid kit, and night lights to comfort the little ones are all included.

Villa Makai is a Waikoloa King's Club Gold member unit - offering up to 70% discounts off golf rates and more. Hilton pool pass is good for up to 6 people daily. Lost passes will result in damage fees.

The location was also super convenient to the pool and clubhouse as well as the beach.

Lovely Adult Family Vacation

The condo is beautiful and well-equipped. Some ocean views and the sun set in the right spot so we could view it from the second story patio. Close location to the community pool, which has a view of the ocean. Walking distance to restaurants and stores. Also, great selection of beach chairs and toys which we used when we drove to other local beaches. We would happily stay here again.

Perfect family vacation spot

We had an amazing week here! Our family (with 9 & 12 year old kids) loved the Kolea pool, A-bay, exploring the Hilton (the kids loved that we could use the pools and water slides) and visiting local beaches. The condo has towels, beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, snorkel gear (including kid’s size), coolers - everything you need for a fabulous beach day. The condo itself is clean and beautiful, with everything you need to grill or cook. We loved early morning coffee on the deck. The host was welcoming and very easy to work with. We’ll stay here again!

Perfect Getaway Spot

We enjoyed 2 weeks at Chrystal’s well-equipped unit. She has thought of everything to make one’s stay comfortable- coffee to welcome guests, beach towels and beach amenities, snorkel gear and picnic coolers etc. The apartment is beautiful and well appointed. Close to shops and restaurants and to the pool and beach to watch the sunset. Chrystal was very quick to respond with any question we had to ensure we enjoyed our stay to the most. I couldn’t recommend this more.

Beautiful Oceanside Condo

Our stay in this beautiful condo was almost perfect. The unit itself is absolutely beautiful, and is stocked with just about everything you could possibly need. From just about any dish or appliance to fully stocked spices and condiments and bathroom toiletries there really isn’t much left out. The pictures listed are true to life and up to date and there wasn’t a speck of dirt anywhere. Most of the check in instructions and information were absolutely clear and easy to follow - however we had a small issue with the thermostat and it took several days to resolve that. When you’re in the unit you don’t have full control over the temperature- they don’t want the temp to be set below 72 which we were totally fine with, but the settings kept causing the a/c to shut off at night and the temperature would go up and made it very stuffy in there. We tried communicating with the property manager, asking for the temp to be set to 73 degrees from 10 pm until 7 am (we had only limited control of the thermostat), and after more than a few messages back and forth with limited responses, it seemed to be resolved. The pool area was very nice, with an infinity pool and very large hot tub, comfy beach chairs and plenty of big clean towns. It never got too crowded while we were there. Tried leaving more info but apparently there’s a limit on how much I can write! \_(ツ)_/

Fantastic stay in Kolea!

We had a truly fantastic stay at Peggy's property at Kolea -- it was so great that we booked our return visit before we left! Peggy's service was 5-star from the very beginning. She sent access information several days before our visit, and called me to ensure we'd received them and that the condo would be set up to suit our preferences. When we arrived, the condo was exactly as advertised, if not better. It is a short walk from A-Bay beach and very close to the complex's pool. The location is great -- you have everything you need within a short walk. The condo itself is as clean and comfortable as a hotel (e.g., comfortable beds, top-quality linens, spotless cleaning), with all the additional comforts you expect from a condo (every appliance, utensil, laundry, etc.). We made great use of the well-stocked activity closet -- with beach toys for the kids, coolers, beach towels, everything you could need -- and appreciated the extra touches like beer in the fridge upon arrival. We've stayed in many VRBOs and this one was top-notch. Mahalo, Peggy! We look forward to our next stay on the Big Island in 9E!

Fantastic stay in Kolea!

What a beautiful week we had in Kolea! The property was amazing- clean, well stocked and comfortable. It was great to have toilet paper, shampoo, conditioner and soap all included! The kitchen had everything you could want to cook any meal. The beds were incredibly comfortable including the sofa bed! We were a little leery about booking an entire week for 5 in a two bedroom condo but the space was plenty! The pool had a malfunction halfway through our trip but it wasn’t even a problem since the beach was so close and we had access to the Hilton which we went to twice and the kids enjoyed thoroughly! Close to shops and a fantastic coffee shop! Peggy answered all our questions quickly. We had a little snafu w vrbo not getting us the check-in info but a call to Peggy solved it immediately and didn’t hold us back for a second. We arrived early and we’re directed to talk to Lindsay (cleaning crew) about checking in early. She let us drop our bags and even got us in to the condo an hour early! Definitely a week to remember!

Best rental possible

This property has it all. It is beautifully decorated, fully equipped, and a 2 minute walk to the pool and to A Bay. We have stayed in many VRBO rentals and this one is by far in a class all by itself. The owner had everything we could possibly need. She has plenty of dishwasher detergent, soap, paper products, plastic ziplock bags, service ware, kitchen appliances, basically anything you need. K cups were provided but there is also a Cuisinart coffee maker and expresso maker. There are 4 beach chairs, a collapsible wagon, two beach umbrellas, and plenty of wave boards and snorkeling equipment. In reality all you need to bring is food and clothes. The owner was quick to respond to my questions. The complex is gated and a 5-10 minute walk to shops, restaurants, and the Hilton. Access to the Hilton was a definite plus but we only used it one day because there is so much of the island to see. This rental is a 10 minute drive to Hapuna Beach. There is a black sand beach nearby. Golf is also close. The airport was 20 min away. I cannot give this place enough accolades other than to say we will stay here again when we return to Hawaii. If this review doesn’t convince you to rent this unit then you are missing a truly amazing place. Mahalo!

Wonderful stay in Waikoloa Beach

Overall we had a great stay. The property was very nice--spacious and clean with all the amenities promised in the listing. The beach club has a nice pool and beach access, which we used. We also took advantage of the included passes for the neighboring Hilton resort pool: this sprawling complex is impressive and the kids loved it. I loved being able to enjoy it for a few hours then leave the crowds and noise behind to return to my quiet condo! A few negatives: Communication with the owner was sketchy. Her email with the check-in instructions landed (unbeknownst to me) in my junk folder. Not knowing this I tried messaging her through VRBO and calling her number (listed on VRBO) the morning we were going to arrive. No response. As I'm writing this almost a week later, she hasn't responded. Fortunately, I found the email while waiting at the airport in Maui, so no harm there. I also messaged her about the location of the condo's beach chairs and boogie boards. Again, no response. Finally, it took me a solid three days to memorize the seven-digit code to open our front door. Does it really need to be seven digits? Nevertheless, I'd stay at this condo again in a heartbeat.

Beautiful, large condo near beach with many amenities

We had a weird situation with renting this condo, but it all worked out in the end. I had reserved this condo when it was under the ownership of the previous owner (some of my questions went unanswered several months ago). About a week before we were supposed to check in, my reservation was cancelled since the property was being sold to a new owner and I was instructed to rebook under the listing for the new owner. There were some complications with getting rebooked, but in the end, it all worked out. Once I had the info from the new owner, everything went smoothly. The new owner and the property manager promptly responded to my questions. In the end, we had a really wonderful time (though I sure had some stress about a week before we got there). The condo is really large, has very nice furnishings, and had virtually everything we needed for our stay there. There were plenty of towels, paper products, laundry detergent, and dishwasher detergent. There were two coffee makers (with coffee) and spices (but no condiments, so buy those if you want some). It also is really well-equipped with everything you need for the beach (6 beach towels, beach chairs, snorkels and masks, beach bags, and some other toys). We had trouble getting the gas grill to work, but the owner said she'd look into it. We loved sitting out on the lanai for our meals and coffee in the morning. Overall, once the reservation situation was resolved, we had a really wonderful time and would definitely come back.
