The first night was awful. We arrived 11:30 pm - the directions + entrance to our place were fine, but we opened the door + were hit wil heat - checking the thermostat - it registered in the 90's + despite measures we could not change it. Called the emergency info # + after 2 calls were told they couldn't help us, until A.M. + open all the windows. The unit was very beautiful, but upon opening the windows, the road noise was pretty awful. After a sleepless nite, went to the management office + asked for another unit. They said they could fix the AC/heating system, but we are in Hawaii...and to not open the windows to enjoy fresh air was unacceptable. They gave us a choice of lesser value units (as ours had a partial ocean view) + we found a very acceptable unit overlooking the golf course, slightly smaller, but quiet. The people that AM treated us very nicely. The next day, the earthquake...at 7:07 AM Sunday AM + we were terrified. We were on the top floor (3rd) of the complex + it was very frightening!! The first episode lasting 60 sec. of violent shaking + we all ran outside to ground level + waited. Within minutes a "maintenance" man came + suggested we go to higher groud in case of a Tsunami. Long story short...the Waikoloa people were very good during + afer the quakes. Luckily, our unit had no damage + the rest of our vacation was excellent. Hope this helps someone!

Very restrictive rules on use of the pool, almost like kids are not welcome, carpet was pretty worn out, ground floor near garbage dumpster.

Wonderful view - very nicely maintained and quiet - a value when compared to the adjoining hotel property. Would rent unit again without any reservations - great location and view!

Comments:
It is a nice property but most of the units are probably noisy as they are mostly on a busy street. Pool was a lap pool only.

Comments:
We stayed in a very large and well equipped 2BR/2B condo, a little far from the ocean, but the complex has a lovely, oceanview pool and hot tub,with a great open air barbeque area adjacent to it, complete with a fully equipped, common kitchen free for the use of guests. The location of the resort is convenient and sunny, and the golf courses are outstanding.

Comments:
It was extremely expensive, and, because we rented thru South Kohala Mgmt., we did not have free access to all facilities. Also, we had to insist on getting a card-key for the beach club parking lot, it was not offered and given only greedily. We also had an "ocean view" but it was across a lagoon, pool house and bank of trees-little view. This is not to say that we didn't enjoy the luxury of the place and the variety of activities on the huge grounds. It was a great trip altogether, and the weather was perfect. We just thought that we'd be closer to the ocean and that $15/day extra to use the health club was a bit annoying. The beach club is too far away to walk carrying snorkle and other stuff, so access to the drive-in gate was essential and should have been expected.
