"This is our favorite hotel on the Big Island! The hotel offers spacious rooms, plenty of parking, and everything you could need for a comfortable stay. We’ll be back!"

"Perfect experience"

"Very short drive to all the best beaches. Little bit of road noise in the morning and evening but not to bad!"

"The hotel is doing everything to turn guest away. The price includes just the room. No water in the room, no breakfast is included. Everything is extra and super inflated prices. Very unwelcoming. It is a trap. As a greeting I heard “we have you for 9 days “, and they did. For the last time. I don’t mind spending a lot of money but I would like to be treated like a guest, and not trapped. "

"We had a great stay at the Hilton Waikaloa Ocean Tower. If you access the amenities onsite property through the Kohala Pool (Ocean Tower pool) it is a scenic walk to all amenities. The tram was extremely helpful and actually a good speed (faster than a speed walk approx. 10mph). It has four stops: Main Lobby, Convention Center, Palace Tower, Ocean Tower. Ocean Tower had its own coffee shop (Waikaloa Cafe) and had the best Matchas & Smoothies! The kids (3 boys - 11, 9, 6) loved the Kohala pool area at Ocean Tower also and every day we saw different animals in the Lagoon! Lots of Sea Turtles, Manta Rays, & Tropical fish! Walk to the restaurants was 5-7 minutes from Ocean Tower. Kohala Spa was about 10 minutes walk and KPC is another 2 minutes. You can walk end-to-end in 12-15 minutes. Every step is worth it! If you get tired hop on the tram! The Lagoon is the best amenity that we have ever seen at a resort! There are markets very close: Kings, Queens, Island Gourmet (grocery store). If you have the time the da trip is worth it to Hilo to Akaka Falls (1 hr 35 min. From Hilton Waikaloa valet. Hotel was clean, staff was amazing, food was great, our memories will last forever!"
