Tram, water transportation, hula show, swimming with dolphins, snorkeling in salt water pools, miniature golf, water slides, themed eateries. There is no sand beach so they bring the salt water and fish into the resort. Since there are three large hotels to choose from, and since they are all inter connected, you can travel from one to the other and... More 

Stayed here for almost a week during our anniversary trip. The grounds are beautiful, no doubt. Everything is well kept and maintained. The resort is so huge that they have a tram and a boat that can take you around. It was fun at first but the novelty wears off after you have to suffer wait times. The boat is... More 

We stayed for 10 days left for 4 and returned for our last night as we were flying out of KOA. We are HiltonHonors members. We paid extra for a room on the Ocean Side (room 1305). At check they said we had a room on the ocean which turned (we could see the ocean if we looked left past... More 

Recently stayed at this property. Beautiful. We were only there for 4 full days and we enjoyed the property sufficiently that we didn't bother scheduling any other island excursions. We enjoy playing tennis and the facilities and staff here are great. There's an on-site coffee shop which satisfied my caffeine needs. We tried several of the restaurants and I really... More 

We just returned from our third visit to this Hilton property. My husband and I traveled together for the vacations and each was as great as the time before. We stayed in late September so there were never any crowds. There were always tons of empty chaise lounges and plenty of water front dining. Don't let the enormous size of... More 

This is a HUGE resort (with pros & cons) but the best part is the grounds. The lagoon is calm and was perfect for my kids to snorkel without waves. The fish and turtles were great. The pool bar food was not amazing but the staff were kind. The tram & boat services were fun for my kids. Be comfortable... More 

We enjoyed a weeks stay at this beautiful property in August for part business and part pleasure. It's a very large and beautiful property with something to do for everyone. Our room was in the Makai at Lagoon Tower overlooking the lagoon. We happened to have a ground level room which was lovely because we could walk right out of... More 

This is a beautiful property that caters to families and has lots to do. Beautiful location right on ocean. Trams and boats take you all around this large place. But meals are very expensive, even sandwiches and pizza. Take a trolley to one of the shopping areas nearby ($2) and buy some cereal and milk for breakfast. Buffet is delicious... More 

The Hilton Waikoloa Village Hotel is an experience. Where else can you choose between going to your room on the property by walking, boat or by train? The rooms are well appointed with all amenities. Their staff are courteous, helpful and prompt. The real challenge is choosing between swimming with dolphins, experiencing their private lagoon with the humahumanukanukaapuaa and honu,... More
