We provide a guest welcome binder notebook in the condo with recommendation of places to go, see, and do.

We loved our stay at Cooks Landing. Great location and resort amenities. Owners were easy to talk to and responsive. Great value for money and excellent layout for our family of five adults. The only negative was the stained/dirty carpet. I would suggest perhaps it needs a good deep clean or taken out altogether and replaced with low maintenance tile but overall a very clean unit. We would definitely recommend this place and stay again.

We have stayed at many a unit in Hali’i Kai. Cooks Landing, unit 18h, did not fail to impress. Our stay was very comfortable, our host was responsive if we had any questions and the home’s location by the tennis courts and putting green was very convenient. The home had everything you would need in the kitchen and the bathrooms had toiletries and extra stuff in case you forgot something. The pool and clubhouse restaurant on the grounds is a huge bonus if you don’t want to cook. The restaurant’s menu is full of tasty entrees! If this home is available for our next trip I will definitely book it!

We loved the Cook Landing unit! We particularly enjoyed having garage access. We appreciated the use of the beach chairs. The “Whale TV” was phenomenal at the Ocean Club! We grilled out one evening on the lanai and were happy the grill fired right up! Overall a great experience and wish we could have stayed longer.

We had a wonderful stay at Cook’s Landing! We’ve been to Hali’i Kai several times and Cook’s Landing provides everything you need. The condo is well furnished, the beds are comfortable and they have all the beach items you could need. We are looking to book here again next year!

We really enjoyed our stay! The house is located in the beautiful Waikiola resort area and the house is well stocked with kitchen items, towels and lots of beach items. Kristi and Jim are extremely communicative and welcoming. I hope to return to the Big Island again soon and would love to stay at Cooks Landing again!!

The condo was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed to cook our meals. We also enjoyed dining at the Ocean Club which had friendly service and reasonable prices. Hali'i Kai is a beautifully maintained property and great home base for exploring the island. Definitely recommend.

Ocean Club fees at $ 20 (now $25) per day was excessive . Pool was not very clean. Did not use it because of that. Ocean club Cafe service and food was good.
Seating and comfort was lacking in living room. Living room could use a make over. Overall we were satisfied with stay.

This property was WONDERFUL! The hosts are so accommodating and beyond easy to communicate with. My family loved the pool restaurant and the sunsets while watching the whales. If you have kids this rental is for you! So many beach chairs and toys for you and your family to use. When we come back to the Big Island we will 100% stay here again and recommend it to all our friends.

Good location for all BIG island activities including hiking, star gazing, helicopter rides to mention but a few.
Waikoloa resort is great and easy for relaxing or activity filled vacation. This condo has everything you can imagine you’d need. Owner is easy to communicate with and very responsive to minor hiccup experienced during our stay. Highly recommended.
