Detailed Reviews
We stayed at this property for a week and truly enjoyed it. The location is excellent, especially if you have kids and want to use Hilton's pools. We stayed at unit 505 which provided a pass to Hilton pools for 6 people. This unit was in excellent condition. The owner provided kitchen appliances, utensils, and beach necessities and toys.

Accommodations are wonderful. Full size 3 bedroom 2 story condominium close to beach and shopping. Full kitchen also. Here for a week and we love it. Beautiful views and about 30 minutes from Kona airport. Most leisure activities are within half an hour of location.

Very very nice, clean clean, new hardwood floors, granite countertops, air conditioner that would freeze you. It was hot outside. Beautiful landscaping very very quiet at night. Centrally located. Did Shaka audio app for the car and toured the island for 7 days. Great experience, great place to stay. Wife liked it

I’m not 100% sure the staff assigned us to the correct
Room. There was a baby crib in the room when we checked in . The next day the staff called to see if they could go in the room to get it to which I said use, They them called three more times and emailed twice! This isn’t how I wanted to spend my first day of vacation.
They were not very generous with supplies either- I think there was one extra roll of toilet paper and one extra
garbage bag. The sofa bed was old and in pretty bad condition. We ended up purchasing an air mattress because there was no way anyone was going to get any sleep on that thing.And i was really unimpressed when we got locked a few days before we were due to check out. .The door code had got changed without notifying us. I wondered what would have happened if we had come back to the unit after office hours?
Not impressed anyway- wouldn’t recommend.

Responded Jan 6, 2020
Aloha, Thank you for taking the time to bring your experience to our attention. We hope that you will accept our sincere apology for failing to meet your expectations. Our goal is to create a memorable experience for our guests and it appears that we missed the mark in this instance. It seems there was a miscommunication on the part of my team that resulted in the double phone calls and emails to you regarding the crib. We apologize for that. You should have also been made aware that additional supplies are delivered to you upon request at no additional charge. There is a delivery person available until 5pm daily to bring to you. We are truly sorry that we were not provided the opportunity to address these items while you were in-house with us. Please know that we are here to ensure that our guests have a memorable vacation at the resort and to assist in any way we can. We truly value your business and appreciate your honest feedback. Should future travel bring you back to Hawaii, we hope that you will give us another chance and allow us the opportunity to create that memorable experience. Mahalo.

First of all...this is not a resort nor hotel. Huge disappointment. Our 3 bedroom 802 villa was fithy...Gross and disgusting. The kitchen sink has some kind of gross mold growing around the edges. So out dated, the coffe maker was straight out of the 80s. The glass dining room table had finger prints covering it, like it wasn't even cleaned for our arrival. The out door furniture was so old and weather you couldnt sit in the chairs without getting a splinter. All the baseboards have a thick layer of dust. Windows, glass doors dirty. Our upstairs shower was leaking down a vent into the half bath downstairs. The beds in each room were the most uncomfortable and wrapped in some kind a plastic coving the matress. The grounds are beautiful, but of course it's Hawaii. I can't understand after staying here why it's a 4 star..

Stayed at this resort Christmas thru New Year’s with friends.
Pool crowded and noisy since locals allowed. Trash not picked up. No property manager available. Entry gate hanging by 1 hinge. Would stay again if maintenance improves. Hope to return next Christmas.

We stayed here for five days in January and were extremely happy with it. Our 2BR condo was huge. It is obviously a very new development and all the fittings were of an excellent quality. The bathroom for the master bedroom was as big as our child's bedroom at home. All the furnishings were beautiful. We had a lanai and a balcony overlooking the swimming pool. With the morning sun coming in it was delightful to have breakfast whilst reading on the balcony.
The swimming pool area was excellent with a nice little waterfall at one end and a couple of BBQ's available for use.
I agree with the last reviewer in terms of maid service. One day they didn't turn up and on the other days they didn't replace the towels in the bathroom, they were still lying on the floor, or make up the beds properly. As we hadn't even been expecting a daily service this didn't fuss us but you would probably be a bit miffed if you were expecting daily servicing.
We were happy with the location and its accessibility. One thing I hadn't realised from all the reviews I had read is that the resort is completely surrounded by old lava flows. We were somewhat disconcerted as we drove up to Waikoloa wondering what on earth we would get, but once you are inside the resort it doesn't matter.
One tip to possibly keep in mind is that you can buy a day pass ($80 for family of 4) to the Hilton and use all the outside facilities there. Our children had been keen to stay there but we were not prepared to pay the price. This way, we had tons of room in the condo and the kids got to spend one full day at the Hilton and try out all the various pools, see the dolphins, feed the turtles etc.

We returned on Jan 20 from 10 days at Aston Waikoloa Colony Villas. I believe there is another Aston community in Waikoloa, so don't confuse them.
We stayed in a 3BR/2.5 bath condo. I think it is about 2100 sq ft (#505). The decor was BEAUTIFUL. The area was gorgeous. The facilities we well kept, clean and the office staff was courteous, helpful and friendly. There are 2 pools, one w/area for kids the other more adults and both fantastic. The entire complex was quiet and accessible to many areas. There was an earlier complaint from someone about it being far from Kona. I found it was only about 25 miles and that's nothing when you're from TX (ha, ha). The Hilton and Marriott are right down the street, but I loved the more home-like feel of the Villas.
I felt very centrally located. It was an easy drive to Waimea and Hawi. There are loads of beaches around, in fact the "A-Bay" is basically around the corner from the villas...beautiful w/Palm trees everywhere on the beach area if you don't want full sun.
We did buy food to fix breakfast on some mornings and the kitchen was large w/granite counter tops. There was an Open House at one of the 2BR/2 Ba units on the property while we were there, but our unit was so much nicer (decor), that I felt it did not compare (even though they were similar in layout and some decor features...tile in MBa and granite).
The only negative would be the "maid" service. My sister slept on the pull out sofa, but when the maids made the bed, they never pushed the bed back in place. The maids only seemed to replace towels and incompletely make up the beds (MBR decorative pillows and shams were never put back on the beds, remained stacked ont he floor when beds were made). This was a minor complaint that did not make me downgrade the facility...but if you are picky about that sort of thing, you might want to mention it in the office if it happens.
I would highly recommend the Colony Villas to anyone who wants a centrally-located, beautiful and peaceful facility on the western side of the Big Island. Even though there are beaches, don't forget to visit the gorgeous pools.

When we booked this facility, we wanted something new (built in 2003) and quiet for a relaxing vacation. It's located in the Kohala area, down the street from the Hilton and Marriott. It was quiet and has gated access, which you will receive when you check in. The decor of the condos made it feel like you were at home.
Our unit was off the golf course and if you stepped outside you could usually see Maui in the distance. It was centrally located and had easy access to Hawi (45-50" away) and Kona (25" away). The beaches are beautiful, but the condos also had 2 beautiful pools which seldom had a lot of people. One of the pools has a separate "kiddie" pool that was shallow. Both pools were lined with tile and gorgeous.
Word of warning - Do not eat at the Japanese restaurant in King's Court. Absolutely awful. We have better sushi in Oklahoma! The California rolls were made with imitation crab!
I believe Aston has two condo residences in the Kohola area. I never saw the Shores but the Aston Colony Villas were gorgeous, definitely worth the price.

My wife, 1 year old daughter, and sister-in-law just returned from a week at the Waikoloa Colony Villas. First, I would like give my sincere apologies to my fellow passengers on Flight 257. The colony villas are located within the Waikoloa Beach Resort which is 18 miles north of the airport. It is a very easy drive on a two lane highway and the only two traffic lights you enounter are exiting the airport and turning into the Resort. A bit of warning...the initial right turn heading toward the Villas once inside the resort is not easy to see...especially at night (there are no street lights). The good thing is the entire resort is a circle and almost impossible to get lost. I had read an earlier review about problems getting into the gate. Im not sure if it was there before, but there are numbers to call at the gate to reach someone (Aston is listed). The villas themselves are well cared for and we did see landscapers there several times. They are a mix of private residences and vacation rentals. We did have maid service everyday and the service was excellent. Our unit was about 20 steps from the main pool and it was extremely quiet. Although the water was rather chilly (they dont heat most pools in Hawaii), but the hot tub was perfect.
As for the resort itself, it was nice and the Kings Shops were an excellet place to walk around and have a nice dinner. Restaurant selections are somewhat limited, but downtown Kona is about 25 miles down the road. Another warning...if you have reservations at a Kona restaurant, make sure you give yourself plenty of extra time. Traffic (especially going into Kona between 4-6pm) can back up for several miles on the two lane highway. I would definitely recommend the Kona Inn Restaurant at sunset. All open and the tables closest to the water are incredible (be prepared for people surrounding your table taking pictures).
A-bay is nice and the scenery incredible, but if you want a pure sand, boogie board beach...head to Hapuna. Its only a 15 minute drive and definitely worth it. Also if you like to snorkel, try Puako...great reef.
We golfed at the Waikoloa Beach Course and if you stay at the Villas you get a fairly decent discount. The course is nice and make sure you bring your camera for #12.
All in all it was a great homey place with friendly people and great scenery.

There is no safe.
Aloha Peggysue4,
The daily housekeeping charges are optional - you can buy what you want. The checkout cleaning fee and the amenity fee are charges that every guest pays. Bu the way the amenity fee at only $10/day + tax is the cheapest around. And you get a lot for it - including wireless and free movies and games from our kiosk - as well as phone calls, a daily newspaper and all the tea & or coffee that you want (you have to ask for these and pick them up at the front desk sometimes). And the Checkout Cleaning Charge is brand new - our competition has been doing it forever and we had to adapt. We did price the Checkout Cleaning Charge below our competitors rates too. What we'd like you to do is to please let us know on check-in what service you would like during your stay. We want to provide those services at a reasonable cost - and we are willing to discuss that with you to make it work for all of us. You can ask for me at check-in if you have any other questions but our front desk stay is way better looking and smarter than me too!.
