We really enjoyed our time here. It was a lovely place that everything we needed. We enjoyed the beach supplies and the lovely location and the beds were comfortable. Thank you!

Very nice place and location. The condo was fully stocked with anything needed (one of the best stocked VRBO condos we've stayed at). Communication with the owner was very good and very quick to respond. We had issues with the AC working for one of our nights (very hot during our first night as AC wasn't working), but owner was able to get fixed the next day. Overall the place was clean, however, floors were dirty, the bottom of our feet were black after walking around the place during our first day.

Great experience from start to finish. This is thanks to Reg and Susan’s thorough yet simple instructions to access entry into the front gate, parking, parking pass, lock box, etc. that are easily accessible online and they also have them printed once inside the condo.
They have pictures to accompany each step printed if needed and all of their pictures online at booking are exactly what you get once inside.
The condo is well stocked with dishes, utensils, washing detergent and to top it all off they have a closet full of gear for beach, pool, water sports!
I wish nothing but the best for you and your property!
MAHALO!

We highly enjoyed our stay at Wai Aloha! It was a quick 10 min walk to A-bay, so nice for sunsets. While the live music was a wonderful welcome at Lava Lava Beach Club, we mostly enjoyed the path around the fishponds (at sunset), and also the coastal foot trail along the water that continues forever in both directions. Having the Queens and Kings Shops nearby was a huge convenience, made for easy dinner plans each night. We also enjoyed running/walking each morning on the winding sidewalks through the entire resort area, as well as the Kings Highway Foot Trail with petroglyph fields - very unique. It is a beautiful area that is well manicured, and everything you need right there!
The condo itself was super comfortable, beautifully decorated (artwork and woods), and well appointed with dishes/appliances, seasonings/spices/condiments, extra personal care items, local books on Hawaii, loads of gear for a day at the beach, etc. We had everything we needed! The king bed was wonderfully comfortable, as were the luxury sheets. The views from the lanais were great, and you don't look directly at anyone else.
Aside from all that, the owner is responsive and very kind, always considerate of your needs/requests. We are deeply grateful for the opportunity to soak up a bit more 'Hawaii' on our last day! Thank you so much, and for sharing your beautiful place with us, these memories will stay with us forever!

Mahalo nui for the great unit and wonderful experience. Perfect location for anyone doing Ironman Hawai'i 70.3 as relatively close to the activities.

The condo has been nicely remodeled and was very well stocked! Convenient location to explore on this side of the island. It has beach gear and beach towels which was very helpful. The pool was great too!

Thank you Jayne for opening your beautiful condo for our stay! The place was perfectly appointed and restful and the grounds were fantastic including the pool. Jayne is a great host and communicator. We had a great trip (will definitely return!) and Jayne’s condo was a huge part of that experience. Can’t recommend this place and Jayne enough.

My partner and I had a great stay. The lanai was without a doubt the highlight of the condo. It's a perfect place to relax that feels private (well isolated from neighbors) and peaceful (green golf course views).
Other nice features were the saltwater pool (quiet and had plenty of shade), and the location (plenty of walkable restaurants, coffee shops, and paths).
Place was exactly as pictured with a very generous sized master. Management was responsive, and even let us know in advance about some work being done on a nearby unit (which ended up hardly being noticeable). We would absolutely stay again!

We really enjoyed our stay in Tracy and Carmine's condo and their good communication! They are wonderful to work with. Thanks so much for everything! The condo was even nicer than described, spacious, and is in a beautifully landscaped and quiet area. We especially liked being so close to A Bay, as well as all the stores and restaurants. We were within walking distance or a quick two minute drive. We hope to return in the future.

This is the perfect spot if you are attending a conference nearby and want a walkable location at a much lower cost than resort hotels! OR just a great location! Everything was clean and the location is quiet and lovely! Our host was very communicative and helpful! This unit is steps from the pool which was wonderful!

Great location to enjoy all the Big Island sites, restaurants and experiences. Waikaloa is convenient from the walking paths, to the well stocked island market to A beach and Lava Lava. Morning coffee on the lanai looking at the ocean will be missed back on the mainland.

This condo is beautiful. We had to stay longer in Waikoloa because I had wrist surgery up in Waimea, (fractured wrist)
The unit was quiet with a partial view of A-bay. We had no problems and enjoyed walking to the beach everyday. The unit was well laid out.
The instruction booklet could use updating with exact instructions for the TV/remote usage and the new induction cooktop. However, the island manager was responsive and eager to help when we had questions.
We would stay here again.

I've stayed at many VRBO condos, including a couple in Waikoloa and this unit was by far the best! The management company was incredibly responsive before check in, and for a couple of minor things that came up. I loved the spaciousness of the property and the unit was generously spaced and laid out. What made this place truly special is that decor and household items were clearly "owner quality" not just a rental unit. The special touches like motion light at the entry, and kitchen being well stocked really made this an incredible rental. The pool is heated (rare!) and the people were very kind about my 10 year old playing in the pool. We loved being walking distance to the Marriott and Hilton for restaurants. Overall, I literally could not say enough good things. Thank you so much for the perfect stay!

A heading that refers to golf and shopping doesn’t do this unit justice. It should be entitled something like SPECTACULAR VOLCANO VIEWS AND A SHORT WALK TO THE BEACH. Clear mornings you can see the crest of the Kohala Mountains, and the peaks of Mauna Kea, Mauna Loa and (mostly obstructed) Hualalai! Less than 10 minutes walk in the other direction and you can be swimming in the ocean. The unit is spacious, well furnished, well stocked and just an all around delight. The AC works just fine, especially if you turn it off an hour or so after sunset, open the windows and doors, and let the cool evening breezes do the heavy lifting (we were there in May with almost summer temps). If there were once problems with the master bed or things being in poor condition, those problems have been resolved. Next time on the Kohala Coast this will be the first place we try to book.

We have stayed at Waikoloa Vista many times and this was by far the BEST well stocked Condo we've stayed in. From the Kitchen, Bathrooms, Beach Gear...you will never go wrong on this Rental.
So Clean and updated...beds so comfortable, amazing bathrooms/showers/Washer & Dryer and I want that dryer!
These folks know their Customers and make their Condo so welcoming and inviting.
We will be back for sure :)

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Our son and his family live in Hawi and we were there for our grandson's first birthday! The living area was very clean and spacious as was the lanai. We would love to stay there again on our next trip. The beds were very comfortable as was the living room furniture. My only suggestion would be that there might be a few more dish towels in the kitchen. We also never could figure out how to turn on the light over the table, however we did not call to ask for help either so that's not a criticism. As usual the grounds were beautiful and we really enjoyed the hot tub and pool!

We have stayed here before and definitely will again! This condo is so welcoming and relaxing. We love being on the ground floor as my boyfriend has back issues and stairs are a pain! Close to the pool and we love the lanai! Owners are super responsive to any questions we had. Loved our visit!

This condo is beautiful. Check in was easy, it was clean and kitchen was very well appointed. Very comfortable lanai furniture. The complex pool and hot tubs were so nice.
Owner was very responsive!
The only down side to the location was the road noise from the intersection at certain times of the day, but we got used to that.

This lovely unit is very comfortable, spacious and clean. We had everything we needed to cook, relax, and enjoy ourselves. The location is perfect. It is easy to walk to the beach, restaurants, and the local shopping centers. The lap swimming pool was my favorite! It was refreshing to start the day with a few laps in the pool. Jayne is very attentive and ensured we had all the information we needed.

We found the place wonderfully clean and beautifully decorated with high quality things. Beds and pillows were very comfortable. Lots of spices for cooking as well as other cooking things left behind. Kitchen has everything you’d need for any kind of meal. Condo had beach toys and chairs plus good beach bags and a cooler and umbrellas. Beautiful view on the lanai which was fun for enjoying mornings and evenings. Place was very quiet. Also there’s a great restaurant called Tropics that is just across the way. This was a great place to stay. Very well located and in walking distance to the shops and the big hotel with the fun pools and lagoons.

Upon arriving, we realized that the condo was not what we expected. Entering the condo was a door-mate that was worn and torn (I almost tripped).
Here is a list of what disappointed us:
1. Ice maker was frozen
2. Walls we’re scuffed and needed painting
3. The owner controlled the use of the air conditioning and although he said, opening the bedroom windows would cool off the room during the night, there was often no breeze plus the window sills were black with an accumulation of dust and grim. (I would like to send photos of this)
4. The bed linens and towels are old and dingy, making what should have been a luxurious stay seem uncomfortable.
5. The barbecue and outdoor refrigerator were filthy beyond
description (I also have photos of the barbecue that I think you should see.)
6. We paid top dollar for this condo and expected luxury.. Even at half the price we would had expected comfort and cleanliness. This Condo was unacceptable!
7. The only saving grace was a lovely convent location.
8. We would not stay there again and would not recommend to anyone.

We had such a wonderful stay in this condo. It's very spacious, the beds were comfortable, the bathrooms were nice, and lots of extras to use at the beach (kid toys, chairs, and coolers were a plus). The location was perfect, we have two young kids and we were able to walk to the beach (ʻAnaehoʻomalu Beach) within 10 mins. This beach was perfect for young kids, it's a sheltered bay with gentle waves. In the afternoons, we would splash around at the condo pool. We had one issue with the stove and Vacasa sent someone out within 30 mins and had it fixed quickly. We would stay here again, we loved it!

This condo has everything. Kitchen is fully equipped and has tons of containers to store your food in. The lanai is beautiful and has great privacy on one side unlike the other condos. Parking and trash take out is very convenient. It’s a nice walk to the shops and to the beach as well. It seems like an older retired clientele in these units which was perfect for our younger family that wanted to enjoy some pool time at the end of our days. Would definitely stay here again.

Advertised as second floor, two twin beds in second bedroom. We were on first floor, one double bed. But it did not matter much. The facility was clean and integrated to the outdoors with two lanais. Seating was comfortable with many chair and couch options. No complaints from anyone. Our group consisted of retired anthropology professors who received their Ph.D. degrees from Stanford U. We held long discussions everyday sharing our accumulated experience on the topic of how social structures and organizations need much more attention in public discourse, policy and planning. We all learned from each other and had a great time in a wonderful environment. (No communication with property manager)

The place was great, and exactly what it looks like in the listing. A nice place to stay, about twenty minutes walk from the shops and A-beach. Easy drive to lots of other beaches. The hosts were flexible about check in time, which we appreciated as we got there a few hours early. Highly recommend. If you don't feel like walking all the way to A Beach to see the sunset, there's a rocky promontory which also has great sunsets and is slightly closer. (But unlike A beach, you can't swim from
there...)

We have been to Hawaii several times over the years and absolutely loved our stay here. The pictures on line look nice but it's much nicer seeing it in person.
Beautiful place! The owners have done a terrific job with decorating the place, a mixture of modern and Hawaiian. Everything is carefully laid out making the stay very nice. All the beach gear you need is here, and the lanai is so pleasant! We had a great stay and will try to return some day. Aloha!

The dirty sheets and towels were on the floor. And the key was not in the lockbox.
We did laundry, made the the beds and enjoyed the res of our trip. My cleaning deposit was refunded. Everyone was happy.

We had an issue getting access to the property as well as the condo.
Had to get in touch with management and finally property host to get gate code and door code. Once inside we had no hot water! It was fixed the next day but after a day of travel and 45 min drive a cold shower wasnt very nice. Sorta bummer when considering the amount you pay.
Condo was nice, funiture was a bit dated and mismatched. Bathroom doors need to be replaced with real doors for privacy, the closet magnetic doors offered zero privacy.
Beach equipment was well used, boogie boards were pretty beat up, one of the beach chairs had a broken handle.
It was a great location and good place to call home once everything was settled out.
Hopefully updated funiture, and better access communication will be addressed for future guests.
This is the 4 vrbo we've had in HI over the years, I have to say I would probable not go back to this one unfortunately.
It just didnt have that welcoming feeling the others had.
It looked like a work in progress hopefully as these things are addressed I'll be a competitive listing again.

The place is outdated. The carpet needs replacing. The furniture needs cleaning. The chairs on the Lanai need the pads replaced (worn/tears). The kitchen need modernized (microwave/oven/stove). Will not return to this unit.
