Villa Makai at Kolea, an ocean and beach front resort located on Anaeho’omalu Bay (A Bay), is the perfect spot for a refreshing get-away or the ultimate location for your home-away-from-home! Just a few minutes' walk from A-Bay, the only white sandy beach at Waikoloa Beach Resort, Villa Makai @ Kolea offers a quaint and luxurious escape to the beautiful island of Hawai'i without compromising amenities.

Nice stay, great value

Great place. Clean, comfortable, easy access to pool, beach, shops. The complex pool is nice and a good alternative to busier, noisier resort pools and has a view of A-Bay.We also used the included Hilton pool pass and it worked with no issues.Included towels and beach supplies were super convenient.

A Perfect Stay

I stayed in the condo with my husband and friend. It was perfect. Each bedroom had its own bathroom and the lanai had a partial view of the beach. It was clean, spacious, comfortable and perfect in every way. The host was communicative and quick to respond with any questions. The beach is so close to the condo and there were great food options which were also walkable. And it was also super close to Hapuna Beach and many great towns on the northwest part of the island. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Beautiful Condo on A Bay

Such a beautiful & clean resort grounds & condo. Lovely view from this condo’s lanai, Kolea’s beach club & down at the beach at A Bay as well. We stayed in a different condo & loved this complex so much last year. We could not wait to return this year.We still had a lovely two week stay this year; however, because of the vog that drifted here to Waikoloa (from the smoldering volcano, Kilauea), I was disappointed I could not enjoy being outside as much at Kolea this year.

Five-Star Review for Villa Makai at Kolea – June 2025 Stay

Our recent stay at Villa Makai was genuinely unforgettable and one of the best lodging choices we've made while visiting Hawai'i. Tucked right between the Marriott and Hilton on A-Bay, it offered a noticeably more serene, spacious, and scenic environment — without the hefty resort price tag. If you're traveling with family or just appreciate a quiet morning with your coffee, this place is perfect.What really stood out was the balance it struck — private and peaceful, yet perfectly positioned. Within minutes, we were walking to the pool/hot tub, the Lava Lava Beach Club for sunset cocktails and dinner, or grabbing coffee and shopping at the nearby shops. The beach access was super easy and we actually swam with a sea turtle right out front in A-Bay. The Villa itself was spotless and well equipped. The host was incredibly responsive, thoughtful, and made everything easy from the moment we booked. One unexpected perk was the garage parking and storage — loaded with everything we needed for a perfect beach day: chairs, snorkel gear, etc.We also took advantage of the Hilton day passes that came with the stay, which was a fantastic bonus. The lagoon there was perfect to snorkel and spot more turtles.If you're trying to decide between staying at one of the big-name hotels or booking something a bit more peaceful, don’t overthink it — Villa Makai wins hands-down for value, comfort, and location. We’re already dreaming about coming back!

Lovely Adult Family Vacation

The condo is beautiful and well-equipped. Some ocean views and the sun set in the right spot so we could view it from the second story patio. Close location to the community pool, which has a view of the ocean. Walking distance to restaurants and stores. Also, great selection of beach chairs and toys which we used when we drove to other local beaches. We would happily stay here again.
