The Hula Moon Villa: Luxury Ocean View Penthouse - Best Value in Kolea!

OCEAN VIEW PENTHOUSE WITH DIRECT BEACH ACCESS!

OUR HULA MOON VILLA IS LOCATED IN KOLEA, A PRESTIGIOUS BEACHFRONT COMMUNITY IN WAIKOLOA BEACH RESORT.

Like a scene right out of a postcard, the luxurious Kolea resort is nestled on the shores of idyllic Anaeho’omalu Bay (A-Bay) in the heart of Waikoloa Beach Resort. Kolea offers unparalleled amenities, stunning views of crystal blue waters, and is the only residential community on the entire Kohala coast with its own direct beach access.

As you enter the Hula Moon Villa, a calming breeze washes over you as you sink into the large open space, designer furnishings, and soothing ocean views. This spacious villa is professionally decorated in an elegant mix of contemporary furnishings blended with beautiful Hawaiian art & accents. There is a well-equipped gourmet kitchen with top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances.

Open the pocket doors to the lanai and relax on the comfortable tropical patio set. There is an outdoor kitchen with a professional Viking grill, wet bar, and mini-refrigerator. Kick back and enjoy a glass of wine or maybe a Mai Tai while taking in a magnificent sunset or relaxing under star-filled Hawaiian skies unlike any you've ever seen.

We’ve provided ALL the little extras that make the Hula Moon Villa truly feel like a home away from home. Each bedroom suite comes with its own HD TV and digital cable. The living room is furnished with a 60” TV, entertainment system, surround sound, and digital cable. We’ve also included a DVD library, board games, free movie channels, and free long distance calls back to the mainland!

Fun in the sun is made easy with full beach gear including towels, chairs, boogie boards, and beach toys. Walk through the private gate to the beach at A-Bay, famous for its golden sands and tranquil blue waters. The Ocean Sports hut has rentals that include snorkeling, kayaking, and sunset cruises. Or just take in the dazzling ocean view from the Kolea Beach Club as you enjoy a morning workout in the open-air exercise room, a swim in the infinity-edge pool, or a dip in the lava-rock spa. Your kids will love the sand-bottom pool and waterfall.

You’ll have easy access to everything while staying at Kolea. The restaurants, shops, and grocery stores at the Kings and Queens Shops, two championship golf courses, upscale dining at the Marriott and the Hilton, and beachfront dining at the Lava Lava Beach Club are all just a short walk away. You'll never need to get in your car while on your vacation!

If you are searching for the perfect Hawaiian getaway, escape to paradise at the Hula Moon Villa! Aloha!

Wonderful stay on Big Island
We had a great stay at the Hula Moon property. The condo was very clean, convenient, and had everything we needed. The Lania was quiet, private, and a wonderful place to eat dinner and enjoy the evenings. The boogie boards, beach chairs, beach towels, Snorkel gear, and cooler made our daily trips to the beach easy and fun. We loved our vacation in Waikoloa, and can’t wait to return!

Amazing stay!
Beautiful, spacious 2-bedroom condo steps from the pool and beach was perfect for our little family! They had beach toys, beach chairs, a cooler, boogie boards, snorkel gear, an umbrella-everything we needed :) The kids loved the pools and hot tub and there were sea turtles everyday swimming by the beach. We will definitely be back!

Best Host and lovely space!
The property owner was great with communication, and very kind to compile a list of activities and asked the age of my children to be more specific. The location was walking distance to many activities we enjoyed. I will definitely look at this condo when coming back to the Big Island. Very enjoyable vacation!

Perfect
I wish I could give it more than 5 stars. The property was amazing. The condo was fully furnished with a fully stocked kitchen, including a very nice blender and air fryer. There was so much attention to detail - from the comfortable beds, nice pillows, amazing lanai, down to the plush toilet paper. The pool was very nice with adequate lounge chairs and easy access to the beach. There were coolers, snorkel gear, chairs and umbrellas in the garage storage. I would absolutely stay there again. Not a single complaint or suggestion for improvement.

Dream vacation
We absolutely loved our stay at the Hula Moon Villa! We have stayed at the Marriott next to Kolea previously, but staying here was so much more relaxing and enjoyable. The Kolea complex is beautiful, quiet and perfectly located. The condo itself was very clean and came with everything that we would need. We particularly liked having beach chairs and umbrellas as we have had to buy those in the past. We loved walking to the shops and to dinner nightly. Communication with the owner was prompt. We loved every minute, and will be back next year!

Excellent. Easy. Great location. Pedestrian friendly. Groceries and restaurants within walking distance. Great waterfront public path.Only issue was someone nearby kept smoking cigars and the odor blew into the unit. This unit is non smoking I don’t know whether the entire development is. The air is so clean here one bad apple really screws it up for everyone.Not the host’s fault obviously..

You Won't Be Disappointed
This is a lovely, clean, modern, comfortable condo that is only 5 minutes to the swimming pool and another 5 minutes to a white sand beach (rare on the Kona side of the island). Even the sprawling Hilton to the north of the condo development does not have a nice beach like this one. You'll have a great time here!P.S. When you look for the hideakey, note that the lockbox is on the 3rd floor where the unit is.

Best time ever in Hula Moon!
We had a great time and were lucky to find Hula Moon at Kolea! This is the best place to stay on Big Island if you want a relaxed vacation . The villa has everything you need for longer stay , very spatial and comfortable. The Kolea itself is a gem with very nice landscaping, pool, hot tub and a relaxing vibe. It is only a few steps from the beach and restaurants. We have been many times to Big Island and stayed in Mariott, Hilton, and other villas in the area. Hands down, Kolea is the best deal you can possibly get!

Absolutely loved our stay. The home is top floor, beautiful inside and out, close to great shops, beaches. Facilities are top of the line. Spent time at the pool, the beach, walking. Loved the grill on the deck, and listening to birds on the deck in the mornings. AC and ceiling fans worked beautifully. Beds were comfortable too.

Fantastic Big Island Property w/ Perfect Location
We had an incredible weeklong stay at the Hula Moon Villa. The check-in process was incredibly easy, the condo is immaculately maintained, beds are super comfortable, and the owners have provided all the amenities you could need! The kitchen is well stocked, beach towels are provided, and all kinds of beach equipment is available for use, including chairs, umbrellas, snorkeling equipment, etc. The location is also fantastic. So much is within walking distance - < 5 min walk to incredible A-bay beach, 5 min walk to the Marriott, 7 min walk down the beach to Lava Lava Beach club. The Hilton, Kings' Shops, and Queens' Marketplace are all between 10 - 15 mins walking. So convenient! Highly recommend this property and would definitely stay here again.

Home away from home
My family and I had a great time here at Hula Moon. It was our second stay in these condos and Hula Moon did not disappoint. The photos do not do justice. The view from the lanai was fantastic - you can see A-bay. It's a hop skip and jump to the pool house and then a quick trail walk to the beach! The condo very clean and well maintained, comfortable beds, plenty of towels. Owner was accommodating with our requests. We ate in mostly and it was convenient to have spices and other condiments. Would absolutely recommend to others. Only one minor suggestion would be to have a wooden cutting board.

Perfect condo for a Hawaiian getaway
This condo was so perfect for our vacation. It was comfortable, super clean and conveniently located. The beds were so co for table and we all slept so well. It’s an easy and short walk down to the beach and we went down there every day to read and swim. In the morning we sat on the lanai and just relaxed. Communication was super easy and quick leading up to our stay. We had an amazing experience and would rent this unit again in a heartbeat.

About the host

Hosted by Kimberly Meister

Host profile image
We have been coming to the Big Island, specifically the Waikoloa Beach Resort, for many years. It is our favorite of all the islands. We were married on the Big Island in 2008. We love coming to Hawaii on vacation because it's a place where we can relax and enjoy the ocean, see breathtaking scenery, set off on different adventures, hang out with locals that have become our friends, learn about Hawaiian culture or just sink into the easy-going island vibe.

Why they chose this property

After countless times walking to the beach at A-Bay, we would walk by Kolea and dream of having a villa of our own here one day. We feel blessed that our dream has come true!

What makes this property unique

We love being able to just walk to the beach. A-Bay is our favorite beach on the island. We enjoy swimming and snorkeling in the bay as well as relaxing on the beach. One of our favorite things to do is to take the two-minute walk over to the Marriott Resort and watch the sunset over Mai Tai's and dinner. We have made friends with many of the people who work there, and it's always fun to hang out and visit with everybody at the end of another day in paradise.
