We had an amazing trip to the Big Island and this condo played a big part in it. The thoroughly enjoyed the condo, pool and on-site restaurant. The resort grounds are beautiful and well kept. The condo was very clean, beds were all super comfortable and fit out family of 6 well. If anything it feels bigger and more impressive than the pictures. The garage had a nice stock of beach gear including 10 beach chairs, 5 sets of snorkel gear, 3 umbrellas, 4 boogie boards, 3 coolers and sand toys. The resort pool was wonderful and a very short walk from the condo. The restaurant beside the pool was delicious and had live music on some evenings. We walked the path along the ocean to the Hilton next door on several mornings and the views are breathtaking. Richard was excellent to work with and checked in to make sure everything was going well (which it was). We would stay here again in a heartbeat if we visit the Big Island again in the future.

Visited Waikoloa with our family and this unit could not have been more perfect. Spotlessly clean and well equipped. Checkin instructions clear. Comfortable beds and plenty of towels. Resort is amazing with lagoon pool, pool bar and grill and the best sunset views. Five thousand stars all around.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time here! Richard was very helpful and accomodating with everything from information about the house, helping find things to do, and being easily reachable when I couldn't find something in the house. The house was supplied with everything we could need for the beach and cooking at home for the week we were there. The house was super spacious and comfortable. The bed was so comfy-most comfy bed I have ever had access to in a VRBO! I also loved the proximity to the ocean, the beautiful pool that was available and we went to the nearby beach(Waikola) many times and snorkeled with sea turtles! We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

We had an amazing time staying at this property. Richard was thorough with all the information and was available at anytime we had questions. The condo was clean and we were all very comfortable, it felt like home.
We could easily walk to the pool and walking path and we had great views of the sunset every night. A highlight for us was getting to sit on the patio every morning to have our coffee and enjoy the views and gentle breeze. We will be back again!

My husband, myself and our teenage son recently had the pleasure of staying at Richard's Condo in Waikoloa, Hawaii, and I can't say enough about how perfect everything was. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with tranquility and breathtaking sunsets that made each evening unforgettable.
The condo itself was immaculate. Every corner of the house was spotless, reflecting the high standards of care and cleanliness maintained by the hosts. The beds were incredibly comfortable, ensuring we had restful nights after our days of adventure.
One of the highlights was the restaurant by the pool. The staff there were not only friendly but also very welcoming, making us feel right at home. Their warm hospitality added an extra touch of enjoyment to our stay.
Overall, Richard's Condo exceeded our expectations in every way. We are already looking forward to our next visit and will definitely be staying here again. Highly recommended!

This was our family's first stay on The Big Island, and it exceeded our expectations. The property was perfect! It was bigger than it looked online. There were 6 of us and we had plenty of space. Loved the location right across from the Ocean Club. The place was stocked with everything we'd need - beach towels, chairs, umbrellas, coolers, snorkel gear etc. It was quiet and peaceful at all hours which made it even more relaxing. The Ocean Club is beautiful, and the food is great. Our host’s itinerary suggestions were great and so helpful. We all can’t wait to go back!

This property is an absolute gem! Perfect location in a gated community, steps away from the Waikoloa coastline. The community pool and club is a great place to hang out, with a fitness room facing the ocean and a nice restaurant, and it is 1 block away from the condo. Richard's property was perfect for our family of 5. A/C was useful for the hot days. Kitchen was well stocked. The check-in and all communication was very smooth. We highly recommend this property!!

The condo was amazing! It was beautifully decorated and well equipped with everything you’d need. I really appreciated the soaps and laundry supplies that were ready and waiting for us.
The condo is also close to the pool and conveniently located on the island for excursions.
Richard was a very gracious host. He provided a lot of information about the condo community and activities on the island. We couldn’t have asked for more and hope to make a return trip in the future.

We really enjoyed our stay. The house exceeded our expectations by far. The space was adequate, and the location was perfect as this condo was located directly across from the pool and gym. Richard was available 24/7 to answer any questions we had. By far this has been my best experience with a VRBO.

We have stayed at this property twice, and we've loved it both times. This condo feels like a wonderful home away from home. It has plenty of the benefits of a big resort -- a lovely swimming pool, and we can walk over to the Hilton (where our kids love seeing the dolphins). But it also feels so relaxing and calm to be here.

This resort and the entire area around it is BEAUTIFUL. The condo was perfect for our family of 4, 2 adults & 2 older teens. The rooms were comfy and spacious, bathrooms beautiful, clean and so nice. You can see the ocean from this unit, is 1 min walk from pool and that area. Porch (lanai) was so nice to have and enjoy. This condo has awesome AC and ceiling fans easy and simple to use. Garage stocked with umbrellas, chairs, snorkel gear, our kids rode the nice bikes everyday! We loved this place and it made our trip even better it was SOO nice. Will be back in the future. Host was easy to communicate with, friendly and simple. Very helpful. Thank you!!

The simple answer is we would definitely book again. We enjoyed our time. Halii Kai is a lovely property and great landscaping. The pool and gym perched above the ocean is stunning. The unit is very close to pool and gym and access to the coast line for regular sunset watches. The unit is tastefully decorated and quite well stocked, and was a great unit for our family of 5. Couple small details could use some attention to give it a full 5 out of 5 in all categories. The non stick pans have seen a lot of wear and need to be replaced. As well, it looks like the fridge was replace and required the removal of a bunch of millwork, which would look better replaced. But a very nice unit on a very nice location, at a very nice property.

Hali’i Kai is a very nice, manicured, and quiet community. The condo was easy to book and check-in. The beds were very comfortable, the unit was clean, and the kitchen was well appointed. (Check what others left before going to the grocery store.) There were four bicycles in the garage that were nice to ride around Waikoloa. I would recommend this property to friends and relatives.
In the spirit of full transparency there are a few small details to consider. It is a bottom unit in a condo complex, which wasn’t an issue until the last day when a new party checked into the unit above. The community pool is very nice, but there is no shade/umbrellas or the ability to bring your own. The cooking pans, beach towels, and provided beach toys need to be replaced.

Richard is an amazing host and made our stay incredible. His place was exactly as the pictures showed, if not better. The location was close to the pool and we could see the Pacific Ocean from the back porch. I would highly recommend staying with Richard and his place. Thanks for an amazing stay!!

It was great to wake up and drink the morning coffee on the patio. The pool and on site restaurant were great. The food was delicious and the views were spectacular. Would stay again if and when the chance arises.

First time on he big island and also including our adult children. We looked for a location that had something for everyone. The Waikoloa area had shopping, restaurants, grocery stores, hiking, beach access, walking paths, and close to the airport. The condo we found fit the bill for us. In a great gated community, 3 bedrooms, kitchen filled with all the essentials, plus spices and a Keurig. The beds were comfortable and the lanai was perfect. The community had a great pool and bar/restaurant which is really close. The communication was great from start to finish. Highly recommend !!

My family and a friend spent 5 nights at this condo. There were 5 of us staying at the condo and the space was perfect. The accommodations were exactly as stated. We had 3 spacious bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, stocked kitchen, eating area and comfortable living room. The neighborhood was beautiful and quiet. The landscaping was extremely well done! We had a gorgeous view of sunsets and the patio was perfect for enjoying breakfast and relaxing in the evening. Host was very attentive and responsive throughout our stay. There is a shopping center when you enter the turn off the highway that has a wonderful market with all your needs. We were busy exploring the island and wish we had more time at the condo to enjoy all the amenities!

Nice ground floor unit with big grassy area off back lanai. Very close to ocean club and pool. Richard (property manager) was very helpful and nice, even when I asked for information he had already sent to me which I should have read first before bothering him. Lots of pool and beach toys in the garage. Hali’i Kai is a great property and this was our 3rd time here (first to this unit). Highly recommend.

Loved everything about this place. Close walk to see the sunset at the pool. Quiet. Great kitchen stocked with spices. Easy to cook for your family. Condiments in fridge so you don’t have to buy and then waste by throwing away. Washer dryer very nice.
Beds are super comfy. Good A.C. and great fans in all rooms. Access to the garage when we came to the Unit when it wasn’t ready so we could dump our luggage. Loved all about it
Highly recommended.

The property was perfectly situated close to the Club House. within a short walk. The condo was more than well equipped; especially in the kitchen. The beds were very comfortable.
We were very blessed to have such a great place to visit with our family.
