We stayed here for a family vacation and stayed 5 nights. Super comfortable and lots of great amenities. The property is beautiful and has access to a great beach and nearby restaurants within walking distance. We really enjoyed our stay here and hope to come back!
The property was great. Well described. Plenty of room for our family of four. Very close walk to beach and people. Also close to shops and restaurants.
We had a great stay at this condo. We enjoyed the beach access and the pool. We were able to walk to dinner. We drove around the island and were glad to have an access to a cooler in the condo. We will definitely stay again!
The condo itself is very nice and clean. The location is awesome for families—it’s a very short walk to the pool and to the beach. We had two toddlers and an infant and it had the basics we needed for them (pack n play, high chair, beach toys, etc). The showers in the condo have awesome water pressure, the outdoor barbecue was wonderful to have, and we would definitely stay here again.
We were looking for a place with easy access to pool and beach for our toddler and this was excellent! Could walk everywhere; market a short drive away. Lavalava Beach Club was a great dinner an easy walk down the beach. The condo was well stocked, including with kid things like high chair and beach toys. Would recommend and would stay again.
We enjoyed staying at this property, roomy and good layout. Lot of amenities.
Great location, as advertised, highly recommended
We had an excellent stay. The condo was perfect for the two families that shared it. Plenty of space, lots of amenities, very comfortable furniture including the beds, very nice lanai with a great BBQ. This location was as close as you can get to the pool and the beach without paying the outrages rates to be right on the beach. It's literally a 2 minute walk to the pool and a 5 minute walk to the beach. It's also a 5 minute walk to the shopping centers near by. I would highly recommend this property and it's owner who was extremely prompt on answering our questions. We will definitley be back!
Property was better than advertised. Check-in was easy. Clean and tidy. Communication was good. Short walk to pool and beach. Had everything we needed for a family holiday and we thoroughly enjoyed it!
Property is located in a great location. No shower curtains only to discover them in the washer and note found on shelf (which I couldn't see due to height) things in washer. Not enough time to finish laundry. suggestion would be to take to laundromat. Also bathroom rug seems very dirty.
Other than these few items, we enjoyed the property, convenience of location. There was no binder to be found according to letter on desk by dining room. Did not know how to contact anyone if we had questions or notification we left early so cleaners could come.
Thank you!
The condo was as presented on VRBO. Very well a portioned in the kitchen. Towels and linens were plenty full. Washer and dryer worked fine. Very nice pool area very short walk to pool and ocean. Had a couple small issues Ben took care of them. The only issue that didn’t get taken care of was the icemaker in the refrigerator never worked. There was a small portable icemaker, but it really wasn’t enough for a family of seven. When I emailed Robert for questions and or concerns he was very prompt and always very helpful. I would stay here again.
The place was beautiful, comfortable, and quiet. We really appreciated having beach chairs, umbrellas and towels available for our daily excursions. Being a walk away from dining and shopping was also a plus. This was an even better experience than staying at one of the hotel resorts.
There is a reason we keep coming back -- the location is spectacular, the condo is perfect for our needs, the amenities wonderful, the beach amazing and the host responsive.
This was the perfect location for our 5 year old granddaughter's birthday staycation! It had more than enough room for 4 adults and birthday girl. The home is beautiful. The beds were comfy and the kitchen fully equipped. The large shower and deep tub were especially popular. We were happy to find the little things, like the stool in the bathroom cabinet and baby high chair if needed, made it convenient for little ones. The landscaping is beautiful with fragrant flowers in abundance. An awesome view of Mount Hualalai welcomed us from the living room window. The corner unit location is great and is just a few steps away from covered parking. Just a very short walk away is the welcoming infinity pool with the warm blue ocean of 'Anaeho'omalu Bay a few steps beyond. Just perfect! Nearby you'll be able to find everything you need from groceries to clothing to sunscreen or fine jewelry at either the Queen's Marketplace or the King's Shops. Very convenient. If you're looking for a perfect place to relax this is it! You'll see others on the property including kiddos yet it is not crowded or noisy. It felt very private and safe. Our host Bob responded quickly to any questions I had. I found it very warming that he reached out on the morning of our stay to check if we were ready. That was thoughtful and welcoming. My grandbaby has already planned for future birthdays at Kolea!! Thank you Bob for letting us stay in your home.
Beautiful, immaculate and great location. The owner is fantastic. He truly wanted us to have great time by constantly updating us on best things and places to see.
Definitely worth every single dollar. I will definitely stay here when I return. Thank you
I have done Lavaman for about 10 years now and this is my absolute favorite place to stay. Never disappoints.
We enjoyed this comfortable condo with A-Bay access within a short walk and covered parking for our car. It had all the beach toys we needed and having a private outdoor patio and grill was a bonus. I have to say the dryer booster was very loud, but once we were done with laundry, it wasn't a problem. Thank you for hosting us!
Two active couples enjoyed the beauty of the island as we celebrated our 70th birthdays. The villa accommodated us beautifully and was in a great location to many other attractions. Everything in the villa was clean and well appointed. The owner was very thorough and attentive, even offered us the use of his golf clubs and his golf membership. We stayed for 6 nights and hated to leave.
The location of this property was ideal - so close to the beautiful pool area, A Bay, walking trails, golf courses, shops and dining. The communication from the owner was great. Nice beach gear to use and a great lanai with outdoor kitchen. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Kolea is one of the best resorts to stay in Waikoloa with great access to the ocean and short walking distance to shops and services. Excellent pool facilities with towel service.
Our condo unit was excellent with prompt attention and service from the owner. Having your own barbecue on the lanai is a real bonus as we enjoyed dinners outside every night. Looking forward to staying again next year.
This property was really nice. As soon as we went in, we just loved everything. The location is perfect right on the beach, the community pool was really beautiful, and the home has all necessary amenities you would need. We enjoyed the stay a lot. Thank you!
I have been a regular visitor to Hawaii since 1988 but my sisters have not ever been here. The condo was perfect for them. Beautiful home with easy walk to the beach. It was the perfect place to introduce them to Hawaii
This place was perfect for our family of 5: Husband and I, twin 6 yr olds + my mom. So comfortable and spacious, with updated amenities. Kitchen had everything we needed and more. Proximity to the pool with a great view of the sunset by the beach. Husband and I could do our morning workout swims in the bay easily. Pool was nice (though a tad bit warm), having pool towels there was a bonus. The condo itself provided enough beach and bath towels. Huge washing machine which helped for our family.
Definitely would recommend this to other families who need all the comforts of a holiday stay in Hawaii!

Our first visit to the Big Island was fantastic at this property! The cleanliness and amenities were exactly as described and just what we wanted. The check in/out process was very clearly communicated. I HIGHLY recommend!!

Property was beautiful. Great location. Had a slight problem with the linens. Two of the beds were not made and a pile of bed linens were on the floor by the laundry room waiting to be washed. We contacted the owner and he was very responsive and contacted the cleaners. We dropped off our luggage and left to get groceries. When we returned everything was in order. We enjoyed our stay!!

Bob ( owner) was very responsive and the property was in great condition. The unit has every cooking utensil you need and has plenty of beach equipment. Kolea is in a great location and a short walk to both the Hilton & Marriot properties and also the local King & Queens market. We would definitely stay here again.
