Hilton Grand Vacations Club Kings’ Land Waikoloa

Hilton Grand Vacations Club Kings’ Land Waikoloa

10/10 Excellent
"We really enjoyed our four-night stay at Hilton Kings' Land. Our two-bedroom, two-bathroom deluxe suite was spacious and well-maintained, offering great convenience with its full kitchen and in-unit washer and dryer. The golf resort view from our room was also very beautiful. The resort's own pool complex was fantastic, featuring two fun waterslides and lava rock waterfalls. Additionally, the location is great because it is very close to beautiful Kohala Coast beaches like Hapuna Beach and Anaehoʻomalu Bay. However, there are a few things to keep in mind. While guests get access to the main Hilton Waikoloa Village, the shuttle service was quite frustrating. The timetable was not reliable, and total transit could take anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes, including up to a 30-minute wait for the shuttle. Driving yourself takes only five minutes, but parking is hectic with a 15-plus minute walk. My tip is to stick with Kings' Land's own pool because it is far more convenient and enjoyable. We also noticed a few large dead cockroaches in the Kings' Land pool. Given the surrounding tropical gardens, bugs landing in the water is somewhat expected, but better surface skimming by maintenance would help. Despite the shuttle issues and the minor pool skimming need, Kings' Land is a high-quality property. We highly recommend staying here and enjoying the wonderful on-site amenities."
