It also features an oceanfront, open air Exercise Hale with varied top-of-the-line fitness equipment. Enjoy Hali'i Kai’s own private restaurant and bar...AND it's own chefs - formerly from The Four Seasons! The food is fabulous, featuring only the freshest locally grown and highest quality seafood and meats delivered daily.
The club features several choices for outdoor covered and uncovered dining and lounging areas, spa-quality towels and facilities, as well as a do-it-yourself BBQ area in a lavish and lush, partially-covered dining area. And the Coconut Grove, a tropical garden with picnic tables, BBQ grills and hammocks for taking naps while swinging between coconut trees. There is a tennis court and a half-court basketball conveniently located centrally. We have stocked our hale with everything you could want to make your stay enjoyable, including snorkel gear, boogie boards, sand toys, books, CD’s, DVD’s, and board games. Hali’i Kai truly is a top-notch, yet casual private boutique resort, complete with concierge services. These resort amenities are all included for our guests.

In addition, Hali'i Kai has a PERFECT 5 out of 5 Overall Satisfaction Score on Expedia; there is only one other hotel in Waikoloa with that score.
The LANAI: Enjoy Pupu's & Mai Tai's while you gaze out over the Waikoloa Beach Resort partial ocean view, golf course and stunning Mauna Kea to the East. Sit back, relax and enjoy the sunrise & sunset...they are our favorite times of day on the Island!
The LIVING / DINING ROOM: Our motif is a Tropical Polynesian blend...with creative original art works from various local "struggling artists"! We have a large screen LCD television, a great stereo...and lots of good movies & great music !

There is a walk-in shower and a separate deep tub for soaking away your cares! The guest bedroom is at the opposite end of the unit and is essentially another master bedroom, featuring two, extra-long twin beds that can be joined to form a king-size bed... (and we know how to do this correctly!), ample closet space, and full, private bath.
ENJOY NEARBY:
SPA TREATMENTS: Enjoy world-class spas at the Waikoloa Beach Marriott and Hilton Waikoloa Village resorts - a short walk away....(less if you dare to dash across the fairway!) They offer a full menu of services and island-inspired treatments…Big Island Healing Ritual bath and the Ti-Leaf Cooling Wrap. SHOPPING & DINING: The Kings & Queens shopping centers are a short walk away, and feature many choices for casual as well as award winning dining. The Kings shops offer designer apparel, jewelry, and specialty shops including Macy’s, Louis Vuitton, and Tiffany & Co. and local artisan shops like Noa Noa, Travel bookings shops, too. The Queens Marketplace, across the street, offers many restaurants (Macaroni Grill is our favorite), Starbucks, shops, and a 21,000 sq. ft. gourmet supermarket and a 4,000 seat amphitheatre for concerts and cultural events.
GOLFING – To start - championship golfing at two 18-hole courses: the resort-style Beach Course designed by Robert Trent Jones, Jr. - a must-see picturesque 12th-hole ocean view and the more challenging Kings’ Course with numerous pot bunkers and undulating fairways.
CULTURAL: Hali’I Kai resides on an idealic site along the "Old Donkey Trail" or "Trail by the Sea" (Ala Kahakai) to the north shore...the King’s trail meanders through centuries old petroglyph fields and provides a lovely walking tour. And two beautifully-preserved ancient Hawaiian fishponds.
Humpback whales (Kohala) are commonly seen frolicking directly off the shoreline during the whale season... Sunrises over Mauna Kea...Blue Pacific waters that go on forever & ever...Sunsets that sizzle into an end of the world twilight...the drum beat of crashing waves...Island fever...it's very HYPNOTIC!
At Anaeho’omalu Bay (that's A'Bay!), sea turtles (Honu) swim right up to your feet! You may sunbathe on the beach, swim, snorkel, scuba and windsurf in the bay.
This is a non-smoking hale (family allergies; therefore if you smoke, please do so outside...we check and forfeit deposits if someone’s smoked inside.
Mahalo and Aloha

Sunset Peekaboo Ocean, Mtn, Golf, Views @Hali'I Kai-Waikoloa,
Year Purchased: 2007
Why the Owner Chose Hali'i Kai
We would often come to the Waikoloa area or Mauna Lani and figured it would be great to have a family home there and rent it out when we're not there.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo
Well the Ocean Club!! I adore the food there and whale watching from my lounge chair poolside under a palm tree. The hot tub has a sandy bottom (love that). The 3-tier pool is awesome; working out overlooking the ocean, mostly I just love the resort atmosphere, and being close to snorkeling and the Kings and Queens shops. We have friends that stay or live in the complex or nearby and it's great to get together.

We absolutely love this condo! It is appointed with quality, beautiful polynesian furniture and we especially loved the lush greenery placed about the unit. Everything we could need or even want was already there in the unit. The bedrooms are much larger than ours at home! The layout is just lovely and the wood and granite in teh kitchen is gorgeous. Loved spending time out on the lanai overlooking the golf course having our breakfast every morning. It was so cozy on a particularly rainy day when we played with some of the stocked board games and watched some of the DVDs. The Ocean Club is unparalelled! WE WILL BE BACK. IT'S THE NICEST PLACE WE'VE EVER STAYED. The spirit of Aloha is alive there. PARADISE!

Am late at getting around to setting up the guest book - but here are some comments guests have made: "It is Extremely well stocked" "Perfect - we loved being there, pool area is stunning, people friendly" "You are in a beautiful area and the condo is well designed and very comfortable. "It was great! Your condo is very tastefully decorated and clean! We loved it, thanks!" "Good, relaxing holiday in facility and surroundings that has something for everyone." "The added lush plants in the condo make a nice touch to the decorating/ambiance." "The unit was fantastic! These are just some of the great feedback we always get. We take guest evaluation forms that we give out very seriously so as to make the experience everything the guest could hope for AND THEN SOME.
