Our family of four greatly enjoyed our stay here. The location was great, the unit was well-maintained, and whenever we had questions, the owner was very responsive. We hope to return again soon.
Beautiful beach side property with perfect pool for kids. Beach is a 2 minute walk from the pool where we saw 2-3 sea turtles every day swimming off the beach. Easy walk to shopping and restaurants in the kings and Queens market place.
Cora’s place was roomy, easy to access and within close walking distance to the pool and the beach. We prefer to cook and the kitchen and provided cookware made it super easy. We’d definitely stay again!
Wonderful stay, beautiful condo, great communications, wish we had stayed longer than a week. Will return as soon as possible and the entire family loved our visit.
This condo is located perfect in wiakoloa right next to A-bay. Beautifully appointed everything needed for comfort. Wonderful owner who kept in contact with us throughout our stay. We all totally love this condo and owner couldn’t ask for a better stay .
This was the perfect location we were looking for. The description of the condo and amenities were exactly as listed. I would highly recommend staying here. We will be back.
The pictures do not do this place justice. Beautiful unit and property. 10/10 would stay here again.

Beautiful condo, complex and grounds. Extremely well appointed with everything you could possibly need. Would stay here again in a heartbeat. One suggestion, the lanai table and chairs could use replacing.

Response from VrboOwner on 29 Mar, 2020
It was a pleasure hosting you and the family, Chad! Thank you for choosing our condo and for your review and feedback. We agree about the lanai table and chairs. While we have been deliberating between a sofa set and a dining set, we are leaning toward the latter as many use the lanai for dining. Your thoughts? So would we welcome other guests' input. Mahalo!
We LOVED this condo!
Cora's place is so beautiful (even better than photos - which often doesn't happen) and well equipped and they had everything we needed during our stay. It's so clean and spacious, the outdoor patio was also very nice and we all enjoyed our stay so much. Great location and community with beautiful the beach and pool.
Cora was so welcoming and wonderful to work with.
This condo became our favorite and we already booked this place for our next trip and can't wait to go back!
Incredible. Outstanding in all aspects. The condo is so well stocked with instructions for everything. The owner (Cora) is so incredibly responsive and helpful. She really goes out of her way to make you feel comfortable. We would come back in a second!
We enjoyed our stay at Kolea 15L so much! We can't wait to go back to visit the island and hope it includes staying here.
The condo was wonderfully equipped especially the kitchen. We were able to put together a wonderful Christmas dinner with the well-eqipped kitchen and the built-in grill on the lanai. I loved sitting out on the lanai in the mornings enjoying my coffee and the views of the ocean to the right.
Cora was very pro-active in reaching out and communicating before, during and at the end of our visit during the check-out process.

WE LOVE KOLEA!
Thank you Cora and Roger for sharing your beautiful condo with us. We gave it 4 Only because it does not have a view of the water but everything else was 5 stars for sure! The bed was super comfortable and the kitchen was very well stocked. We really appreciated the welcome fruit basket and the champagne that you so generously provided as it was our 25th anniversary! Kolea is situated in the perfect spot. It has direct beach access to AA Bay just past the beautiful pool. It is walking distance to both kings and Queens shops as well as to the Hilton and the Marriott Hotels for many Dining options. Each hotel also has their own Luaus. No need to leave the sunny Waikoloa Resort but if you do you will not be disappointed. The Big Island of Hawaii is our favourite Island. You can still have the wonderful Hawaiian experience without being surrounded by other tourists. MahaloBella & LarryCanada
We've stayed at Kolea several times and this was by far our favorite property. The unit is beautiful - clean, well-stocked, organized, with information posted throughout for everything you didn't know you needed. (Bathroom stools for kids? In the vanity! Spices? labeled! Laundry pods? Provided with instructions!) Such thoughtful touches for renters that enhanced our stay. Truly, an immaculate rental. Communication with Cora and her local property manager was superb. If the system allowed I would give the whole experience 6 (or more) stars.) We look forward to coming back here again.
Beautiful condo on second floor with access via stairs and elevator. Everything we needed was available. We really appreciated the posted notices and property binder with excellent explanations and island information. The inclusion of beach chairs, towels, coolers, etc. was appreciated. Our granddaughter enjoyed the kid's table.
Kolea never disappoints, and this unit is great. Comfortable with enough room for us and our boys, the condo was perfect, and the complex is great. Thanks, Cora!
Kolea luxury, absolutely perfect accommodations! Everything we needed to make our stay perfect! Cora was unbelievably accommodating and communication was superb! We have stayed in many vacation rentals, Cora’s place is up there with the best!!!
Very clean, comfortable space. However the single pool and jacuzzi were too small to accommodate the number of residents in Kolea and always very crowded. We also wished there were tennis or pickleball courts nearby.
This is the perfect condo for a family visit to the Big Island! The unit is large, well-equipped and spotless, with great outdoor space. Just steps away from the beach and a plush pool club. Walk to shopping and restaurants and the amazing ocean path. Communication with Cora and her property manager was instant, and check-in process could not have been easier. Highly Recommend!
We had to communicate with Cora multiple times because our trip was originally delayed by covid a year ago. Cora was very accommodating about rescheduling, our only complaint is that their condo is in high demand so it was hard to find a good date to do so! Then we requested an early check in since we were staying elsewhere for our first week on the island but wanted to move our groceries in, and Cora worked with us on that since there wasn’t anyone checking out that day which we very much appreciated.
Communication is very easy, via email before check in and then by group text with Cora and her island representative once checked in.
The condo (like all Kolea condos) is lovely and in the best location on the big island. This is a larger end unit 2 bedroom unit with two master baths. There are child friendly amenities like a plastic picnic table for little kids, lots of toys and floaties, and waterproof mattress pads.
We enjoyed our stay and would book this unit again.
I can’t say enough about Cora’s place, the location, cleanliness and overall perfection! My family enjoyed every minute of our time and found the proximity to the Queens and Kings shops perfect to grab food or do some shopping. We ate many of our meals in the unit as the kitchen is stocked so well that cooking was a breeze. Just a perfect trip at a perfect place!
Our family loved staying here. The highlights were the lanai, pool area, stocked beach fun closet, and proximity to ‘A’ beach. We’ll be back!
