About this property

Experience the pinnacle of island luxury at Kolea 13C — a three-bedroom, 3.5-bath

penthouse offering expansive ocean views, curated elegance, and unmatched privacy.

Welcome to Kolea, the only private condominium community with direct access to

Anaeho'omalu Bay at Waikoloa Beach Resort. From the members-only oceanfront pool and

fitness pavilion to the quiet beach just steps away, every amenity here is designed for

refined relaxation.

Your private elevator opens directly into the residence, where panoramic views sweep

across the Pacific, Mauna Kea's snow-capped peaks, and swaying palms. Step inside to

discover curated artwork, designer furnishings, and exquisite finishes that create an

atmosphere of timeless sophistication.

The gourmet kitchen is a showpiece with mahogany cabinetry, granite countertops, high-

end appliances, and an oversized island with a wine cooler — perfect for effortless

entertaining. The great room and pocket-door lanai expand seamlessly outdoors, where a

built-in Viking grill, wet bar, and mini-fridge await.

Each of the three ensuite bedrooms is a private sanctuary with luxury bedding and spa-like

baths. The master suite features its own lanai and a bathroom rivaling a world-class spa —

complete with soaking tub, dual vanities, and a walk-in travertine shower with dual

showerheads.

Beyond your retreat, enjoy the best of Waikoloa Beach Resort: two championship golf

courses, luxury shopping, fine dining, and activities from boat tours to dolphin encounters.

Or simply stay in and savor the comfort, privacy, and beauty that make Kolea 13C unlike any

other.

All reservations require a digitally signed rental agreement. As a guest of Big Island Stays,

you will also enjoy the services of our premier concierge team — ensuring your stay is

nothing short of extraordinary.

Everything was great except our electricity went out off and on for two days.

This was, by far, the most beautiful and fun home away from home!! Everything we needed was there. View was incredible! Can’t wait to return.

Condo was beautiful, very large and in a nice community. Kitchen was well stocked. We had a couple of small issues but Kristin responded right away to address them. Beds were very soft, which was not great for us, but may suit others. Access to the beach and trolley were a plus. We plan to stay there again.

This corner unit is lovely. It advertises as having AC, but it is locked at the owner’s discretion. Management gave off conflicting messaging & service: initially all concerns were addressed with apathy, then ultimately resolved. A broken bed was met with “these things happen”, empty propane tanks was addressed with, “it’s a holiday weekend, I’ll see if I can find someone”. A club (fitness center & lap pool) is initially offered, with a final sentence of “owner may no longer be a member”, as was our situation. The unit was superficially clean, but the (bed) comforters were soiled, the Keurig clogged, the Barbeque a grease-pit, the dryer duct clogged with lint, the washer with mold, the garbage disposal unusable. The 24hr service was responsive. The neighboring hotel partnership was nice and the beach personnel friendly & helpful. For the money, not the value we expected.

Condo was fantastic! Very clean, had everything you could possibly need, beds comfortable, no complaints at all. Beach was right across the street! Will definitely stay there again! Had fantastic time!

We had a wonderful stay! The condo is well equipped with what you need and very clean. The area is perfect - can walk to many places, including the beach access right across the street. Property is very well kept. The only downside was the A/C - it doesn't get very cool in the condo as you can't turn it down very low or it will freeze up. There are only 2 beach chairs that are in usable condition and there isn't a cooler or cart to take to the beach like some previous reviews had mentioned. Kristin, the property manager, was easily reached and very helpful.

Beautiful condo! One of the nicest places I’ve stayed. Great communication with owners. This is a perfect location. Great pool that we used everyday. Beach across the street or easy drive to Clearwater or St. Pete Beach.

Lovely spot with a view of the bay. Clean. Property manager attentive. Would have liked the place to be cleaned in between the two weeks or leave adequate cleaning materials so I could clean it. Better shower pressure and hotter water in shower also.

We’ve rented Kolea condos for four different family vacations and this condo was by far our favorite. Great furnishings, phenomenal kitchen and wonderfully spacious. We’ll definitely rent this condo again. Honestly, even nicer than the pictures!

This is a wonderful condo. Its location is excellent, it is really nice, and it is a large size and feels very luxurious. Other guests and us left adult snorkel gear, beach chairs, a cooler, and boogie boards for future guests to use. Make sure you take a screen shot of the email about gate and front door codes because for some reason the cell reception was very bad in the area. We had to send an "emergency" text to the property managers to get the codes because I couldn't look at my email inbox due to bad reception. We love coming here, to Waikoloa and to Kolea Kai especially.

We woke up every morning to beautiful ocean and moutain views. The location is perfect for walking to the beach and restaurants. The pool has comfortable loungers as well as a nice shade structure for reading and relaxing. The condo was nicely furnished with very comfortable and plentiful seating. Beds were very comfortable as well and just a nice spacious clean condo. We were sad to leave!

Hands down the nicest property we stayed at in Kolea. Beautiful views and decor. Beach chairs, umbrella, boogie boards, and snorkel gear all available to use. Well stocked with every day items in the pantry like spices and such. The only downside was that Lava Lava was closed for renovations which is always nice to walk to. We would definitely stay again. This time we had my mom with us and the bed situation was a little tricky with 2 teenagers , boy and girl, not ok with sharing a queen bed. Other than that this place was awesome!
