We have stayed at many locations an along the Kohala coast. Hali’i Kai 16B was an awesome location within walking distance to the Ocean Club. The food and happy hour at the club were the best surprise and the service was extremely attentive. The unit itself is wonderfully stocked and equipped with all the gear you will need for beach excursions. We very much appreciated all the attention to detail. Maureen, our host was very responsive as well. A definite 10 in our books

Even better than the pictures! Huge gorgeous home with ocean views and open living room. It’s in the perfect spot of the complex because it’s less busy but walkable to the pool. It really exceeded our expectations in every way, the live music at the pool club was a huge bonus and the sunsets are unbearable over a lava cliff. An absolute dream! Richard the owner and Jackie the helper are both gracious and communicative, truly the best of the best.

The condo is in a great location and the property grounds are beautiful. We traveled with my parents and our 8 & 10 year old and the condo was perfect for the six of us. The pool area is stunning, both the kids and adults loved it and we ended up spending more time there than planned just because it was so great. The condo is well stocked with dishes, cooking supplies, beach gear, and beach towels. We would stay there again and recommend to anyone looking.

Pool okay. Long walk from 6D. Pool/restaurant staff very friendly and fun. Person at complex office where you pay the resort fee very snippy. Host representative needs customer service classes. Condo needs a deep cleaning. Mold between tiles in master bathroom, dust build up on floor corners. Would not ever rent again if property rep is involved.

The stay was exactly what we needed for grandparents, parents and kids. We used the hammocks and bbqs frequently. There were other children around for my kids to play with (spring break timeframe) and plenty of outdoor space for them to run around. We also utilized the beach equipment and the Hilton pool pass was one of the most memorable things of the trip. Thanks for everything!!

The unit was as described with a lovely pool/restaurant beside the ocean at the end of the street, a 5-8 minute walk, beaches and shops nearby. Make sure you get a code for the community gate in case you arrive after office hours for the property management co.

The unit is excellent and hosts very responsive. We loved that they had coolers, beach chairs/umbrellas, boogie boards. The kids love the putting green.The only bummer was the ocean club. The staff was consistently rude, does not like kids, and the kitchen understaffed. They couldn’t make us fries and a flatbread because “the kitchen couldn’t handle it” - we didn’t even want a table at the restaurant/bar area. You cannot bring outside food/drinks in, so I am not sure how to enjoy the pool with kids if you can’t give them your own snacks or rely on the restaurant.We wanted to stay at a place near a beach with a pool, an loved the location - just wouldn’t recommend if you have kids and are expecting to hang by the pool.

My family of 4 had an amazing time visiting with this beautiful home. The home was clean with so many necessities that you can’t bring with you. The community is beautiful and quiet and we loved the view from the pool. We were visiting in mid March and we got to see whales two evenings we were out there. The restaurant is very good and they have a beautiful traditional sunset ceremony everyday, they even had a fire dancer one night. The pool is pretty shallow so no jumping in for the kids but it’s still dry nice. I can’t say enough about how lovely this home is. I hope to stay again in the near future.

Richard’s property was an ideal accommodation for our family of five. We enjoy a slow, leisurely pace when preparing meals, planning a hike, a visit to a beach or the Hali’i Kai pool and so many adventures that the Big Island provides. But we also love that we can recharge on the lanais with a breathtaking view of the ocean waves, palm trees in the breeze or another nap.Richard and Jackie were prompt with replies to questions. The whole experience at 16G is another wonderful experience that adds to our aloha spirit. Mahalo!

This was our second time staying in this unit and both times have been great. Hali’i Kai itself is a wonderful resort, we love the restaurant and pool and the staff are truly lovely. The proximity to the beach club is a huge bonus of this unit vs others in Hali’i Kai. Overall it was clean and well stocked. We find the living room to be a little uncomfortable, but the beds are nice. Our stay was much more expensive this year than last, so I wouldn’t necessarily say it was a great “value for the money” but we enjoyed our trip very much and were really comfortable staying in this property.

We absolutely loved the location and amenities here! The ocean front views are more spectacular than the pictures. It is just a 30 second walk to the beautiful oceanfront pool. The trail along the coast is 1/2 mile to 49 Black Sand beach one way and 1/4 mile to the Hilton property. We got a day pass and saw so much life snorkeling in the lagoon there, without having to deal with parking. The unit was the cleanest place we’ve ever stayed, well-equipped with everything we needed to cook all our meals and enjoy the view! Doug and Vicki were excellent hosts and were able to work with us on dates after a couple flight cancellations trying to get out there. Such wonderful hosts. We hope so much to visit and stay again!

Our stay at Hali'i Kai at Waikoloa was nothing short of amazing! From the moment we booked our stay Allyson was terrific to work with. She gave great, up to date information and made for a wonderful experience. The unit was very clean, well stocked with kitchen items, and had a very nice welcome gift waiting for us. The location of the unit is across the road from the pickleball/tennis courts that we were able to get a few games in at. Looking out the back door is a nice patio where we enjoyed morning coffee right on the beautiful golf course and a bit of a view of the ocean. The unit was very quite and we were never bothered by outside noise. An easy, quick walk to the pool and resort restaurant, which we enjoyed on multiple occasions during our stay. The water was perfect and the drinks/food from the restaurant were wonderful. We highly recommend this place and would be happy to stay again in the future!

Beautiful, perfect location with a perfect view! We loved sitting on the porch every morning and evening. Quiet and much less chaotic than the big resorts. But still had all of the amenities. The condo was spacious, clean, well stocked and simply perfect for my husband, son and my mom. Thank you!

Very nice place. We were there during the kona low storms. Used the pool as much as possible. They are very strict about their policies. Kitchen is well stocked. There are spices and some leftover things in the frig. Garage has some chairs, 1 umbrella, cooler and boogie boards. The only thing we had trouble with is figuring out the shower and the water. It works fine, just had to figure it out. Overall great stay, minus the weather.

We loved our time here for the second year in a row. Highly recommend it! The grounds are impeccably kept and it is a quiet location with a beautiful view of the ocean and whales. Kitchen is well suited for cooking in. Place was spotlessly clean. Host is wonderful to work with and very accommodating.

Loved our vacation here. Even with the rain, this little oasis was the perfect location to reconnect as a family and enjoy the serenity of the ocean and aloha spirit. The condo was clean and very well appointed. Everything you need is here, and we didn’t want to leave. The pool/oasis area was peaceful as well. Thank you for such a beautiful space to enjoy the Big Island!

We had a great stay! The house is lovely and clean and very well stocked! Having all the toys in the garage was a definite plus with our three boys. Also, the location was great for our teenage sons (ages 13, 16, and 18). They loved having easy access to the putting green and basketball court. The community felt very safe and was well-maintained. Would highly recommend this property to a family traveling with children!

The location was perfect to explore the island. Just north of Kona and only about 1.5hr drive to the other side of the island. We were able to see nearly everything in only 4 days (Puako Tide Pools, Pololu Valley Hike, snorkeling at beach 69, zip lining in Hilo, Akako Falls Hike, Volcano National Park (we stayed 1 night down there to break up the 2hr drive), Island Breeze Luau in Kona (recommend) and Kaumana Cave Lava Tubes. Our Manta Ray snorkeling trip got canceled due to weather or I’m sure that would have been the highlight of the trip. We rented a jeep to get around the island and highly recommend everything that we did. The host, Richard, was so responsive and helpful. He even provided an itinerary with must dos. Note that there is a local market for groceries and tons of shops and restaurants right around the corner of the unit. We would definitely stay here again.
