Perfect for a small family. Had everything we needed. Short walk to the beach. Nice to have the all the beach toys. We made use of the snorkel gear. Host was responsive and accommodating. Lava Lava Beach Club was super fun too!

We stayed here in March 2026 and were super happy! The unit is in a great location and has amazing views. The unit was just as described, was perfectly clean, and had everything that we needed. Check in and stay instructions were great. It's really hard to beat the Kolea condos for location, views, and amenities.
Wide angle view from the patio.

The penthouse was beautiful, so well appointed in both rooms were spacious with en suite bathrooms. We loved how close it was to everything… A few steps to the pool, to the beach and to several great restaurants, the condo had all the things that you needed from chairs and towels for the beach to great kitchen appliances and amenities. You’re very grateful to stay in such a beautiful home.

We have stayed at this property before, different unit. The landscaping and maintenance on the property is unmatched. Absolutely stunning quiet and peace full to say the least . Great pool, hot tub, and mini gym. Beach access does not disappoint. This unit is beautiful and big, kitchen and cookware are all on point. So many cooking utensils and equipment to host any type of meal. Ac is 10 and great air movement from the ceiling fans. We would stay here over and over again. The activity toys, goggles, flippers, ice chest and fold out chairs! All ready for you to enjoy. Absolutely love this spot! 10/10

Great location, great space

This was a great spot for our family, we had so much to do within walking distance (thanks so much to the property for having a wagon to use to get to the beach), and we loved the toddler pool and big pool at the property. Lots of space, laundry, and a great kitchen with all the basics for cooking some fish or steak on the grill.

Wonderful Stay

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful place. The condo itself is just as described - even better. The condition upon our arrival showed great attention to detail. The community area with pool, spa, etc. was outstanding! We loved the tiki torches and the beauty of the entire facility.

The unit is very clean. The location is truly outstanding. It’s walking distance to the beach, walking distance to multiple restaurants and supermarkets. Everything you need for a great vacation is just few minutes away. The area was very quiet which was important to us. Wendee was also prompt in every communication. We had great time!

Can't Beat the Location

Kolea is perfectly located in the Waikoloa area, close to the beach, shopping and dining (all within easy walking distance). We've stayed in several units in Kolea and this particular unit was the best stocked, by far. Every kitchen amenity one would need, beach equipment (beach towels, chairs, umbrella, boogie boards, sand toys) and the beds are comfortable. The property manager, Wendee, was super responsive and addressed questions quickly and thoroughly. Looking forward to a return stay!

Beautiful Island

We stayed here with our 2 teenage boys this February. The location is absolutely wonderful and very relaxing. The condo is exactly as described and extremely comfortable from the beds, couch to the lanai chairs. More than enough space for everyone to spread out. Lovely view from the lanai as well. Easy walk to A-bay, great for a day at the beach with a stunning sunset. I appreciated the sidewalks and bike lanes on the main road for my runs in the morning. Also a short walk (7-10 minutes to the stores king and queens market) I would highly recommend this rental if you are looking for a low key relaxing location on the Big Island.

Spectacular property ‼️

This unit is a “Diamond in the rough”… extremely beautiful set up, clean & a great panoramic view from the lanai!… located near some wonderful shops and shopping market with groceries which was so convenient, all walking distance… I would HIGHLY recommend, and Wendee the property manager was very helpful when needed… I have already booked for next year with this unit!!! (I am disabled, and with the elevator available to the 3rd floor of this wonderful property, it is very user friendly for those with a handicap, including a nice sitting bench built in master shower)

What an enjoyable stay!

Property is very well kept. Unit was clean and peaceful. It was packed full of furniture and would perhaps feel roomier with a bit less especially on the lanai. The location was perfect for us. Easy drive to beaches and walk to shops and restaurants. The pool and exercise area were beautiful and the staff there very nice and friendly. The only negative thing I can say is that we couldn’t get in the gate when we checked in either with the code or app, we tailgated in and the lock box to get in the unit worked perfectly. We never were able to get the app to work even with two different staff helping us, however, the fob in the unit worked great and we had a wonderful time. Would definitely recommend staying here!

Big Island

Condo was just as advertised. Everything was clean and in good working order. Weather in this area of the island can't be beat. Pool area is beautiful and pool is now heated where as few years ago they didn't heat unless it dropped below 78 degrees. Now only issue with pool is the best loungers are full by 8:00 in the morning. There was always loungers in the back area open at least and ocean is a short walk away. Overall I would definitely stay in this condo again and Kolea is the best condo complex on the island.

Kolea 15J

Our stay was very nice. I did try to communicate with Wendee on two occasions and only heard back on a timely basis on the first call. I realize that I called on the weekend which is an inconvenience. The second call also wasn't really addressed. The unit seems to have an additional air conditioning feature in the master that is on regardless of the main unit and was relatively noisy at night. I wanted to see if there was a way to turn that down or off while the main air conditioning was also off. Otherwise the stay was very nice and we tried to keep and leave the unit in a clean fashion. Thanks!

Perfect Elopement Getaway

We stayed in Unit J15 for five nights with our two daughters for our elopement. It was beautiful, clean, stocked with any amenity you would need and provided us a beautiful place to come back to as newlyweds. The separation of space and outside lanai was lovely. Although Waikoloa is the windy side of the island, we weren’t too affected by it. Many things to do and see nearby. Mahalo, Wendee, for your hospitality with our fruit basket and providing our ohana an amazing stay. We will be back!

Perfect Location, Beautiful Property

We absolutely loved our stay at this incredible property. The kitchen has everything needed and there was more than enough room for our family of four (including two kids, 13 and 9). We especially appreciated the beach gear that is conveniently located in the covered parking closet -- so perfect! The grounds of the property are also beautifully maintained and we loved it's walking distance to the local shops and restaurants. Would definitely stay here again and can't wait to come back!
