Vista Waikoloa is a condominium-style hotel within the Waikoloa Beach Resort, which is a collection of resorts, golf courses, restaurants, and shops. It borders the 18-hole, par-72 Kings' Golf Course, which includes four lakes and was designed by Tom Weiskopf and Jay Morrish. The adjacent fairways belong to the 18-hole, par-70 Robert Trent Jones-designed Beach Golf Course. Both courses are available to Vista Waikoloa guests (fees apply). On-site are a lap pool and two spa tubs open from morning to evening.
For a fee, guests also may use the spa and fitness facilities at two nearby resorts, both a 15-minute walk away. The resorts rent a total of 14 tennis courts during daylight hours only. Anaehoomalu Bay, also a 15-minute walk away, is a sandy beach with good swimming and an activities desk that rents snorkeling and boogie board equipment (fees apply).
Sport fishing in Kailua-Kona, horseback riding in Waimea, and hiking trails in North Kohala are all about a 40-minute drive away. The recreational activities listed below are available either on site or near the property; fees may apply.
