Great place
This ground floor unit was in a well maintained quiet complex. The lanai was surrounded by a green hedge that gives the feel of privacy. We were close to the pool and BBQs. The bed was very comfortable and just the right firmness. Management was easy to communicate with and were responsive to any questions or concerns. The kitchen was well supplied. Would consider staying here again if we ever revisit The Big Island.

Sunshine and birds
We enjoyed mid-seventies (F) February temperatures and cheerful tree-filled birds.
Rosy-faced lovebirds and Mynahs above us and
Kolea, doves and Gray Francolins enjoying the many well-tended lawns. Truly an oasis amid the lava fields.
Skies so dark that the Milky Way was visible.

Great stay in a nice resort
I recently stayed 10 nights at this condo in the Shores at Waikoloa.
First, the communication with the company (Maui Condo and Home)was excellent, they gave me the codes 2 days in advance.(The codes change with each guest)
The Shores at Waikoloa is a quiet complex with a decent pool area and a few communal BBQs.
It is a 8-12 minute walk to King Shops and Queens Market.
For reference, the condo is a closer walk to the Hilton than the Marriott.
The condo itself is a ground floor unit. The patio has a table with chairs and a lounger.
There is a decent amount of privacy because a row of 5-6 foot shrubs surround the patio so if you want to have a drink outside no one will notice you and there are no other lanais or windows within close proximity peering down on you.
Since there is only one washroom, the condo is suitable for 2 people or less.
Everything worked fine including the handy ice maker and 2 televisions and the bed was comfortable and the washroom had 2 sinks which is great for couples. The towels and bedsheets were clean and fresh.
Overall, if you have the right expectations, you will enjoy your stay.
There are no magnificent ocean or mountain views, so if you want that you can pay 30-50% more and rent a condo with those views.
I would stay here again.

Dreamy spot
This condo complex is so well maintained and has luxe landscaping. Very spacious feel to the unit and the complex.
One plus not mentioned in the listing is the lawn area off the lanai. It is surrounded by a gardenia hedge that gives it privacy. The lawn area is large enough for kids to play and run around. Pool towels and some toys and kid friendly plastic dishware are provided too. Good sound proofing between units.

Excellent Condo
This is an excellent small condo in a resort community in Waikailoa Beach. The accommodations were comfortable and easy to access. We used the area as a headquarters of sorts for the rest of our exploration of the Big Island and also flew to other islands from the airport, which was also accessible and easy to navigate. Would stay here again if we get back to Hawai'i. Thanks.
