Castle Halii Kai at Waikoloa

It was quiet and the maintenance was first class. The condo came completely furnished with useful items we weren't expecting.

It was lovely, but I paid $25 a day for access to the pool and $185 for a cleaning fee a 2 night stay

Had pleasant experience staying in this resort. no complains.

Great place. Not close to the beach. But very nice.

Club house and beachside pool were relaxing and a nice break after touring the Island - staff very helpful and friendly

Our family of 4 stayed in 19C. It was everything we could have asked for. We used it for a base and went to explore different locations around the island, daily. It was great for the kids(teenagers) to each have their own bed (twin beds, one room). The kitchen with pots, pans, utensils, plates and bowls, microwave, oven and a full-size frig was great for cooking breakfast and a quick dinner here and there. The lanai was a wonderful place to hang out to eat and drink.We did not spend hardly anytime in the living room, but the couch and chair seemed comfortable. The washer and dryer in the unit was a blessing! There was a bike, basketball (Court just down the way), beach umbrellas, one outdoor chair and now 2 boogie boards for use by whoever rents the condo. We had appetizers and listened to live music at the pool - perfect to sit and watch the sun set! We have always stayed in hotels, the condo was beyond our usual and absolutely perfect for this vacation. It was beautiful and met all of our needs while we were here!!!

We stayed 8 days 2/25/17 through 3/5/17. We loved our experience! Great location and accommodations!

Outstanding Villa, gorgeous views, close to beaches. Beautiful private pool and workout room. The big island is wonderful. The locals are gracious people. Will definitely be returning.

The condo at Hali'i Kai was a great place for our family visiting the big island for the week. We booked a comfortable 2 BR which served as a great base for us while we explored the island. Each condo comes with a kitchen and washer and dryer, which came in handy. The pool and gym facilities were also a perk for some in between exploring moments. The carpet in our unit was a bit worn, and the same could be said about the bed in our master (it sunk in), but I think overall, the resort is great.

Our condo was exactly what we were hoping for - amazing location near beaches and restaurants, beautifully decorated, great view, access to the fantastic pool, great amenities like a well-stocked kitchen and laundry room, and so much more!

We booked this condo not being sure of what to expect and we were blown away. The resort is beautiful. The pool is gorgeous and what a treat to sit by the pool, enjoying a drink and watching the incredible Hawaiian sunset. The bar/grill staff was outstanding and very friendly. The open air gym had a view of the ocean. Where else can you work out and watch whales in the ocean. We had a fabulous time.

Former Oahu resident who fell in love with this place. Serene, clean, and modern luxury. The community and 3 bedroom unit we had were outstanding. Great for those wanting a home like setting instead of a hotel. The Waikoloa resort area it's in is beautiful. For those not familiar with this part of Hawaii it is worth mentioning it's built on volcanic rock. So unique, but also not the tropical setting those unfamiliar with the dynamic terrain expect when visiting the islands. It's on a coastline with the ocean backdrop against picturesque black rocks and cliffs. So breathtaking views but no beaches connected. Several gorgeous beaches only a few minutes away by car so this is not an obstacle if you have transportation.

This was my 4th stay at Hali'i Kai and it was fabulous as always.

We stayed here with two other couples. We were in town for another friends wedding. It was much more affordable than the hotel the wedding was at. We all very much enjoyed the condo!

Hi. The location of this property is very convenient. It is easy to engage in activities and drive around the island. The property is beautifully kept only on the outside. However, I can not say the same thing about the condo we rented, 17C. We arrived their with our two kids, one toddler and one infant. This was our 3rd trip to Hawaii Islands but this was the worst place we ever stayed in and would not return here ever again. It was dirty everywhere: The pillows were so dirty that I complained to the front desk. I rarely complain about things. I had to complain about the dirty pillows 2xx before they were picked up from our room. However, during our entire stay, no one came by and gave us clean pillows. Pillow cases are easy to replace. Also, the bedroom bed-covers were so smelly that I told my toddler not to use or touch them. The kitchen was so unsanitary that my wife did not feel comfortable cooking for our kids there. The dish rack was visually dirty and we refused to touch it also. The plastic tapper ware was very dirty. The pots were all greasy...no one had clearly cleaned them properly. The stove-top was directly and I cleaned it before using it. Also, the kitchen was not properly stocked. There was no basics like pepper (we left ours their for others), there was no foil or plastic-wrap, etc. Customer service was also not the best. They never replaced the pillows. When we asked for advice on tourism, we were told to go to the Marriott Hotel (they were great). This property management should have people who can guide us a little. The pool was fun for my kids but you could not walk back to your condo with the pool towel. You had to return them before leaving the pool area. So, we had to bring our hotel towels to wrap our kids. The pool also needs some kid toys for the pool. The other guest at the condo are generally not friendly. We spent one day at the Hilton Hotel and meet two other couples unlike our 5 night stay at this property. It is an isolating affair. This is a rare environment compared to the other islands (My wife has been to Hawaii 8x now). This place does not have the Hawaii spirit. :-( Skip this place and go somewhere else.

Stayed at this property as the hurricane hit the big island. No power outages and no damage. Very nice property. Good location. Lots of restaurants and beaches in the area. Good family spot. Spacious but somewhat dated.

Pros: New unit, everything as described. Nice view of green lawn. Close to bbq unit which was very clean. Hammocks are a plus. Cons: Maid service fee was charged but maid only came once during 7 days to give new towels and take out trash. Maybe twice a week to vacuum would be good. Also, a good 3 minute walk from the unit to the pool. Upstairs tenants had little kids and ran around all hours of the night.
