The villa was extremely clean, well stocked with pantry staples and appliances (rice cooker, four choices for making coffee, plenty of pots and pans and cooking utensils, and a beautiful outdoor grill). The unit is nicely maintained and was extremely comfortable for the three of us. Kolea is a very nice resort with a lovely pool and hot tub and a path to the beach. This particular villa is well situated - an easy walk to the pool and to the shops, etc., but not on the main road. The host was right there when we needed help. High winds knocked the wifi out in the area, and I contacted the host, not knowing whether or not it was just our unit, and she quickly learned that it was an area-wide outage and sent me regular updates from Spectrum about the status of the repair. She also answered my questions before we arrived. We did not take advantage of the Hilton pass because the Kolea resort is much nicer, but it is available for those who want it. Highly recommend.
The condo was as described- clean, full amenities (washer/dryer, stocked kitchen devices/utensils, parking, etc) and perfect for our 1 week stay. The pool access across the road in the complex and beach access through the pool gate were wonderful. The Hilton pass was a plus- a 15 minute walk or parking with free validation lets you use all outdoor areas at the Hilton. Great stay!
Great place. Clean, comfortable, easy access to pool, beach, shops. The complex pool is nice and a good alternative to busier, noisier resort pools and has a view of A-Bay.We also used the included Hilton pool pass and it worked with no issues.Included towels and beach supplies were super convenient.
This unit is absolutely perfect for a epic Hawai'i vacation. High end in every way. Spacious and impeccably clean and organized. Kolea is our favorite place stay in Kona. Gorgeous pool and and you walk out to the beach and which is rareKona. Thank you for all the appreciated extras like passes to the Hilton. Beach chairs an boogie boards and many other items that saved us money. Thank you for sharing your home. We can't wait to come back soon!
This property absolutely lives up to the beautiful photos and 5 star reviews - spacious, clean, very well located within the Kolea community and the Waikoloa area. We loved it and will recommend it to family and friends!
Amazing location and condo. We had everything we needed for our family and easy access to the beach. The Hilton pass was perfect for us to meet up with family at the hotel. Overall an amazing stay and would come back again in a heartbeat.
There are plenty of other places in the area to stay: I wouldn’t stay here. The host was awful for us. Unless you wanna be charged money and not even know it . Yes the property was nice but not worth dealing with this hostS
Great property - excellent unit. The Condo had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. We took advantage of the Hilton pass and visited the property pool and beaches daily. Close to everything. Would definitely consider returning for a future stay. Mahalo!
We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this beautiful Kolea condo. The location is excellent, so close to A Bay and Lava Lava Beach Club and a short drive from Hapuna Beach. Chrystal was great to communicate with. We would love to come back!

We would love to have you back for a longer stay to enjoy all that Waikoloa and the Kohala Coast have to offer!
We loved this home and the location. Chrystal was so responsive and helpful. The location was perfect and the space had everything we needed. We loved sunsets on the porch and the accessibility to the beach. We can’t wait to return!
Wonderful property! It is everything and more than in the listing. We had 2 couples and the location was perfect with access to the only sandy beach in the area and walking distance to stores, restaurants and the Hilton. Beautiful condo with everything you need. Will stay there again!
Thank you.
We enjoyed tour stay thoroughly. The new owner is very communicative and was available when needed. The condo is beautiful, well stocked, and the surrounding grounds are beautiful. Highly recommend.
We stayed for a week for our honeymoon and it was the perfect location! Almost directly on the beach and right next to the pool. Short walk/drive to shops and food and various beaches on the Kona coast. Not to mention being a high end place in and of itself. Highly recommend!

Thank you for picking Villa Makai for this special occasion! We are so glad you enjoyed it. Congrats!!!
I stayed in the condo with my husband and friend. It was perfect. Each bedroom had its own bathroom and the lanai had a partial view of the beach. It was clean, spacious, comfortable and perfect in every way. The host was communicative and quick to respond with any questions. The beach is so close to the condo and there were great food options which were also walkable. And it was also super close to Hapuna Beach and many great towns on the northwest part of the island. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.
We have nothing but positive things to say about our experience. Location was great - loved the beach and pool as well as the natural ponds. Loved having access to golf and the Hilton. Everything you need is right there- restaurants, groceries and shopping. The condo was perfect. Nice size, well maintained and had everything you needed.
Such a beautiful & clean resort grounds & condo. Lovely view from this condo’s lanai, Kolea’s beach club & down at the beach at A Bay as well. We stayed in a different condo & loved this complex so much last year. We could not wait to return this year.We still had a lovely two week stay this year; however, because of the vog that drifted here to Waikoloa (from the smoldering volcano, Kilauea), I was disappointed I could not enjoy being outside as much at Kolea this year.
This condo was beautiful, clean, spacious and had all the amenities (and more) that we needed. The host exceeded my expectations for responses to my questions before and during our stay. I appreciate places like this that have recycling available. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.
