Like no place on earth Hilton Waikoloa Village® presides majestically over 62 spectacular oceanfront acres along the sunny Kohala Coast. Gracing the magnificent black rocky shoreline like a plantation, Hilton Waikoloa Village® meets the turquoise sea surrounded by verdant landscape and the undulating fairways of two championship golf courses.

Glide through the resort in Swiss-made trams or meander along tranquil waterways in mahogany boats. Snorkel or kayak in a private ocean-fed lagoon teeming with bright tropical fish. Come face-to-face with marine mammals at the Dolphin Quest Learning Lagoon*. Renew body and spirit at the Kohala Sports Club & Spa. The Seaside Putting Course is great for practicing a short game. For tennis, guests can take their pick of eight courts including our 432-seat stadium court, which serves as home to the only professional tennis events in Hawaii.

At Hilton Waikoloa Village you'll find a world-class resort unlike anywhere else on Earth. Perhaps that is why so many guests return to this lush sanctuary year after year.

Resort Renovation Update

As a pioneer among world-class resorts, Hilton Waikoloa Village continues to improve the 62-acre resort, meeting the needs of future guests and distinguishing itself as the leading resort in hospitality and excellence.

Since 2005, Hilton Waikoloa Village has invested over $100 million in capital improvements. Here are a few of the highlights.

  • The Orchid Marketplace, formerly the Orchid Cafe, now offers convenient and family-friendly dining choices for breakfast, lunch and dinner alongside the Kona Pool.
  • A new Dolphin Quest Village features three structures with an education portal, a retail boutique, guest changing rooms, a photo/video production center, and more.
  • Guest rooms alone were a $21 million renovation project. New carpeting, bathroom fixtures, richly appointed furniture,  and 27-inch flat screen televisions; fresh paint; custom refreshment centers; Serta Perfect Sleeper "The Hilton Serenity Bed" bed and bedding; and wood valences create an innovative, luxurious yet comfortable room with Hawaiian decor and warmth.

  • The Palace Tower sculpture fountain is restored.
  • Public area furniture is replaced.

  • Restaurants received special attention. Palm Terrace has a brand-new buffet, service stations and equipment; Donatoni's installed hardwood floors, new carpeting and wallpaper; Lagoon Grill's deck is extended, the furniture is replaced and the bar is brand new; and flat panel televisions are added to Boat Landing Pavilion and Malolo Lounge.
  • Public area restrooms are renovated.
  • All indoor meeting facilities are renovated from the floor to the ceiling and now feature new T3 capable circuit and network infrastructure upgrades.
  • The 12 mahogany canal boats are reupholstered and feature new engines.
  • The tramway rail and electrical system is upgraded.
  • The installation of a webcam at the Hale Aloha wedding chapel creates the opportunity for videocasting.
  • The addition of a convenient, self-service kiosk in the Main Lobby expedites check-in/check-out and preprints airline boarding passes.
