Kohala Suites by Hilton Grand Vacations

Kohala Suites by Hilton Grand Vacations is set on the greens of the Waikoloa Beach Golf Course. With access to over thirty-six holes of championship golf, the resort is a player’s dream. Take a refreshing dip in the outdoor heated pool, or relax poolside while the little ones splash around in the pool’s children’s area. There are BBQ grills conveniently located near the pool area. Fire up the grills for a fun family cookout and have the kids assist by carrying burgers, side-dishes, and hot dogs. Tennis courts and the putting green let you get in touch with your inner athlete. The on-site children’s playground will be a big hit with the kids (and grownups will appreciate it too). The kids will have so much fun playing that they'll run off their remaining energy just in time for their afternoon nap. Score!

Air-conditioned two-bedroom condos sleep six guests. Full kitchens allow you to save money by preparing your own meals. Visit the nearby Island Gourmet Market for groceries. Get your morning off to the right start with your famous chocolate-chip pancakes. Don’t worry when the kids end up covered in chocolate, that’s what the in-suite washer/dryer is for. There’s no shortage of in-suite entertainment thanks to the flat screen TV with premium cable and PlayStation 3 gaming console. Bring games from home and challenge the kids. The PlayStation doubles as a DVD and Blu-Ray player, feel free to pack favorite movies for a fun family movie night. For a renovated condo, book a deluxe two-bedroom.

You’re a half mile from Waikoloa Beach where you can lounge on the sand, a rare pleasure among the mostly lava rock sea cliffs of the Big Island.

Queen’s MarketPlace is where you’ll find Quicksilver, PacSun, and Island Pearls. Tweens will love the jewelry and accessories at Claire’s. Treat yourself to a latte or frappuccino at Starbucks. There are plenty of coffee-free options for the kids, just ask the barista! When it’s time for lunch, there’s Paradise Pizza & Grill, Hawaiian Fish & Chips, and Ramano’s Macaroni Grill. Don’t forget to stop by Dairy Queen for dessert.
