Aloha and Welcome to Our Villa! We’ve stocked this villa with the things we like to have on vacation—and plan to enjoy it ourselves whenever we’re not sharing it with guests like you. Nestled in the luxurious, gated community of Waikoloa Colony Villas, this home is part of the world-famous Waikoloa Beach Resort on the South Kohala Coast. One thing you’ll notice driving here: the landscape of dry grass and black lava. It rarely rains! But if you miss the rain, head over the Saddle Road toward Mauna Kea for lush rainforests, dramatic waterfalls, and tropical plants as big as trees.
