The condo itself (nicely decorated and clean) is located adjacent to Hilton’s Kings’ Land - not inWaikoloa Village: this is helpful to know when u r driving around finding it (GPS took me to three different, WRONG complexes).
This is a clean, nicely decorated, fairly new property from appearances.
There are NO televisions/flatscreens in either bedroom or anywhere upstairs, so if you are looking to have that amenity double ck their listing (hopefully they will get this addressed in the near future) before you book.
Parking is adjacent to condo, and be prepared to print out and display parking pass printout in ur car asap as u are clearly warned that ur car cud be towed away and u wud b responsible for all charges if you do not have it clearly displayed in ur car.
Host appears not to live in Hawaii but can be reached by phone. However, know that there is a 6 hour time difference and so responses cud take some time, if ur stuck.
The many pages of instructions we were asked to print out was way more than I ever want to have to do during a vacation or getaway.
Air conditioning is not in your control and managed by host remotely.
And, for checking out it asked us to ‘please leave the property as clean as you found it’!! There is a difference between leaving a property in a thoughtful, picked up manner at checkout and leaving it “as clean as you found it”.
I truly hope the host will reconsider several of their expectations from their guests becuz that one about cleaning at check out in particular, is definitely not appealing to say the least. Especially so, since a hefty cleaning fee was charged. And to do what u discover is expected, you will need to take several hours of your time to do.
If you seek a property or venue where the ocean is viewable, this one would not be a consideration.
Honestly, my sense is the host is well meaning. And there are no complaints about the property itself.
Unfortunately, we had multiple frustrations and objections that we think most cud have been ironed out with a capable, friendly host on site.
This review has been ‘thumbed’ on my cell phone and I have taken the liberty of abbreviating to expedite the process.
