Summary:
Let the morning light pour in, make coffee, and watch golfers move across the fairway from your lanai. Shores at Waikoloa 18 is a light-filled two-bedroom condo for four, with tall ceilings, big windows, and the breathing room that makes a beach vacation feel restorative. Take the beach essentials to A-Bay, cool off in the shared pool, soak in the hot tub, or keep dinner simple with the BBQ. Central air conditioning, a full kitchen, cable TV, and an in-home washer and dryer cover the comforts at home. The primary bath has an all-tile shower with two showerheads and a bench. Queens' MarketPlace and Kings' Shops are close for a meal, movie, or supplies. This is a graceful option for two couples or a small family wanting Waikoloa's sunny, unhurried side.
The Space:
Lofty ceilings and large windows fill this two-bedroom condo with light and make the golf-course setting part of the room. The lanai is a natural spot for morning coffee, while central air conditioning keeps afternoons comfortable indoors. A modern full kitchen, cable TV, in-home laundry, and a primary all-tile shower with two showerheads and a bench make the space feel considered for four guests.
Guest Access:
Guests at Shores at Waikoloa enjoy access to the shared communal pool, hot tub, and fitness gym, plus BBQ grills for easy evenings outdoors. The complex has an elevator for convenient access to units and is set along the golf course with beach access nearby. Some resort facilities are operated independently by the resort.

The Neighborhood:
Waikoloa Beach Resort sits on the Big Island's sunny Kohala Coast, where black lava fields give way to warm, clear water. Anaehoʻomalu Bay, known locally as A-Bay, is the easy choice for a beach day, sunset stroll, or a paddle on calm water. Kings' Shops and Queens' MarketPlace keep dining, groceries, and browsing close, while petroglyph trails and coastal golf add a distinctly Big Island backdrop. It is an easygoing base for families, couples, and friends who want beach days without a complicated plan.
Getting Around:
Kona International Airport is roughly 20 to 30 minutes away, an easy drive up the Kohala Coast. A rental car is recommended to reach beaches, restaurants, and the resort area's shops with ease. Waikoloa Beach Resort keeps some shopping and dining walkable, while nearby beaches and Waikoloa Village are a short drive. Parking is generally available in resort lots or on site at most properties.

We absolutely loved our stay at this condo! The golf course view was stunning — peaceful in the mornings and beautiful throughout the day. The location is wonderfully quiet, yet still very walkable to shops, dining, and the beach, which made everything so easy and relaxing.Inside, the condo was spotless with beautiful décor that felt both stylish and comfortable. The kitchen was incredibly well stocked with everything we needed for meals at home, which we really appreciated.Overall, it was the perfect home base for our Hawaii trip — calm, convenient, and thoughtfully put together. We would happily stay here again!

Very spacious townhome in a perfect location. Wonderful lanai for sunsets and sunrises, home office setup worked out perfect for teleworking during vacation. Walking distance to food shopping and Hilton Grand. This place had it all! Big kitchen and grill area came in handy for a few family dinner nights and the bathrooms are large and very posh. We had a wonderful stay and would definitely stay again.

Property was just as advertised and in n a great location in the complex, across from the pool and BBQs. With 2 master suites at opposite ends of the unit, it was perfect for two couples to share. Condo had everything we needed and quickly felt like home. Beautiful lanai and great sunsets every night.

Villa 18 at the shores was our home away from home for the last month. The complex is familiar to us but it was our first time staying at villa 18. It was an excellent place to stay. The lanai was our favorite place to be. It offered a great view the golf course and a partial view of the ocean. The condo was spacious and great to entertain our family members that came to stay. A suggestion would be to add ancillary kitchen appliances such as an air fryer and/or an instant pot. They use less electricity than standard appliances. Providing a coffee maker with an automatic shut off would be better as well. Overall a great stay!

Wow! One of the nicest vacation rentals I've stayed in. The attention to detail is great, from the fully stocked kitchen (silverware, pots/pans, dishes), beach towels and 2 chairs, TVs in every room, and washer/dryer. Ideal for a group of three or two couples, this spacious home was standout. The expansive lanai was my favorite with beautiful views of the golf course and was the perfect place for morning coffee. The property is in a quiet community with a clean pool, and is close to the massive Hilton resort which we explored a bit, but looks like you need a day pass for the Hilton pools.
Although there were tiny ants in the kitchen this was the only minor negative because the overall quality and cleanliness of the place was outstanding. Parking right in front followed by a flight of stairs up to the private entrance. I would gladly return to the Big Island just to stay here again.

We enjoyed our stay in this beautiful, spacious and well maintained condo. A lot of nice little touches to make our stay very comfortable and the management was very helpful and regularly in touch to make sure things were going well. The property is conveniently located, with a short drive to plenty of shops and restaurants, and walking distance to the shore. Very satisfied!

High ceilings made for bright, airy rooms. Nice large kitchen with plenty of lighting. Undercover parking attached to the villa saved having to carry stuff across the parking lot, The pool was right across the road and a really nice beach was just minutes away by the Queen’s Shops. The keyless entry door locks eliminated the need to check in at a desk, especially if arriving after hours. We did note a lack of silverware and dishes for the four of us. Beds were comfortable, linens were nice. The lanai was a great place to spend time as the sun came up. Our parents traveled along with us and stayed in one of the bungalow units. We preferred a villa instead. Overall, it was a quiet community and well maintained. We would stay here again.
