Hotel Aqua-Aston di Kaunti Hawaii

Nestled along the serene shores of Waikoloa, the Hilton Waikoloa Village is a haven of luxury and tranquility. Our recent stay at this breathtaking resort was nothing short of extraordinary, thanks to the impeccable service, stunning accommodations, and picturesque surroundings. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality that instantly made us feel at home. The check-in process was smooth, and to our delight, we were pleasantly surprised with an upgrade to a Royal Suite in the palace tower. Stepping into our suite, we were greeted by spacious elegance and panoramic views of the beach and lagoon. Every detail, from the plush furnishings to the tasteful decor, exuded luxury and comfort. The grounds of the Hilton Waikoloa Village are a true testament to paradise. Meticulously maintained gardens, winding pathways, and cascading waterfalls create an oasis of serenity amidst the lush landscape. We spent hours exploring the resort, discovering hidden gems around every corner. Whether lounging by the pool, strolling along the sandy shores, or indulging in a rejuvenating spa treatment, every moment was a blissful escape from reality. One of the highlights of our stay was the exceptional service provided by the staff. From the friendly greetings to the attentive care, every member of the team went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and satisfaction. Whether offering recommendations for dining or arranging memorable excursions, their genuine hospitality made our experience truly unforgettable. As seasoned travelers who have explored destinations around the globe, we can confidently say that our time at the Hilton Waikoloa Village surpassed all expectations. It was more than just a vacation – it was a transformative experience that left us longing to return. If you're searching for paradise on earth, look no further than this remarkable resort.

房間乾淨，看的出老舊，不過應該裝修過，還不錯。桌子較少，沒有秤。又是典型的美國式被單套法，露出的被子很噁心。 隔音很差，別人講電話、關門聲音、走廊聲音一清二楚，更別提酒店工作日裝修電鑽！ 停車免費。 beach bar的調酒和餐都很不錯，服務也好。但是！browns的reception態度惡劣！ 前台服務可以説沒有，要死不活的，什麼有效訊息都不説，問就是不知道。

房間比預期小 前台說網上顯示的麪積是加上了陽台的麪積。 小童俱樂部5歲以上才能託管 活動房間也沒有四季的大。 沙灘有很多石頭，不細膩 根本下不去腳， 但是酒店的view還是很美的 感覺比四季的景色更豐富一些。 Concierge的Kalei很貼心，幫我們聯繫租車行直接把車開到了酒店。 總得來說

Our holiday at the Four Seasons Hualalai was simply perfect. The resort is a dream, you feel like you're in paradise in this well-kept tropical setting. The staff are exceptionally nice, the food in all the restaurants is excellent, and the sports facilities, such as the fitness centre and semi-olympic pool, are top-notch.

25주년 결혼 기념으로 하와이를 선택하고 5월부터 비행기와 평소 묵고 싶었던 힐튼을 예약했다. 그런데 남편이 일이 생겨 못가게 되어 취소하려했더만 숙소가 저렴한 대신 환불불가였다. 250여만원 날아가는게 아까워 앞으로 800만원을 더쓰는 하와이에 오게 되었다. 딸과 둘이 오게 되어서 렌트카를 대여 못한게 나중에 화근이되었다. 힐튼은 신도시급으로 와이콜로나 빌리지란 큰 성안에 콘도형, 호텔형, 골프클럽리조트와 수영장 음식점 쇼핑센터등 마을 처럼 구성되어 무료 셔틀 버스로 다닐수있었다. 우리 숙소는 저렴한 이유가 골프클럽 안에 있는 리조트로 메인호텔이나 퀸스마켓등 번화가와 걸어서 30분 정도 떨어져 있었다. 울 숙소는 그중 24동이라 클럽 하우스에서 골프장카트 타고 다시 5분여 달려야 했다. 카트 운전에 방까지캐리어 운반 팁5불 지불했다. (체크인할때 보증금 35만원정도 결재하고 체크 아웃후 몇일후 문제없으면 카드취소후 리조트피 15만원 정도를 재결재한다) 클럽하우스에선 피자와 햄버거와 주류정도만 먹을수 있어 메인 장소인 퀸스마켓에 가서 장을 봐와야 했다.모든 상품엔 부가세비포함이니 부과세 포함시키고 무조건 팁 18 더하니 물가는 살인적이 였다. 호텔후기에서 왜 마트에서 장봐다 먹는지 비로소 깨닫게 되었다. 돈주고 사먹을래도 딱히 사먹을 맛집이나 종류가 없긴하다. 어째든 클럽에서 피자와 햄버거 맥주 칵테일 먹었는데 9만원나왔다. 숙소인 클럽리조트는 둘이 묵기에 넓고 쾌적하고 청결하고 좋았다. 냉장고엔 얼음나오고 코나 커피도 두봉지 있고 커피메이트 식기 도구 충분한수건 용식용품등 갖춰져 있었다. 넷플릭스가 되는데 내 가입 아이디로 봐서 호텔 아이디면 무료인지는 모르겠다. 만타가오리 업체는 클럽하우스 까지 픽업와서 무사히 마쳤지만 문제의 사건은 다음날 별보기 투어가 늦게 끝나 셔틀 버스를 놓쳤기에 발생했다. 10시30분에 퀸스마켓 스타벅스앞에 내려주었는데 다 문닫고 비는 추적추적 내리기 시작하고 그 큰동네엔 울둘만 덩그러니. . .우버택시는 5대째 놓치고 딸은 20분쯤 되니 걸어가자 하고 일본에서 행불된 청년도 생각나고.그래 빨리 걸어 가자 생각하고 5분쯤 걷자니 평소 길잘찾던 딸도 당황했는지 방향 못잡고 귀신나올것 같은 오솔길에서 다시 대로변으로 나와 우버택시 천신만고 끝에 잡아 숙소로 돌아왔다. 젊고 친절한 백인 우버 택시기사 위험할수도 있다고 걱정까지 해주어 고마웠고 팁을 25%주었다. 하여간 하와이는 계획부터 역경이나 잘헤쳐 나가고 있는듯. 4일간 액티비티 온종일 투어를 해서 유명한 돌고래 있는 수영장도 못가고 빌리지를 거이 이용 못하고 잠만잔게 너무도아쉬었다. 그래도 리조트피는 15만원 정도 내야했다. 참고로 코나 공항에서 숙소까지는 무료이나 다시 코나 공항으로 가는날은 유료버스고 미리 예약해야 한다.예약 못해 우버타고 갔다.첫날 코나 공항에서 숙소가는길도 운전자가 소통이 안되 이리저리 우릴 싣고 다니더라. 하와이엔 영어가 능숙하지 못한 유색인종직원도 꽤있으니 반드시 제대로 소통하길. 길 넓고 안복잡하고 저속으로 다니니 여자도 꼭 차 랜트하삼요.

Kristy, the pre-arrival ambassador, is the reason our stay was so memorable! She had emailed me prior to our stay to ask if I had any requests. I mentioned my wife and I were celebrating our anniversary. I also mentioned that we were staying 3 nights total. The first 2 nights were under my name and the last night under my wife's name due to a free night award that she had in her Marriott Bonvoy account. I have Platinum elite status and one of the perks is complimentary breakfast for 2 each morning. I asked if she could extend the breakfast benefit to the 3rd night under my wife's name. She had no problem doing that even though Bonvoy rules say the hotel is not required to do that. I had also asked Kristy if we could stay in the same room for all 3 nights. I had been upgraded to a Na Hale wing room for the 2 nights under my name due to Suite Night Awards that I used. Kristy was able to get us to stay in the same upgraded room for the 3rd night under my wife's name for no additional charge. That was really nice. She went above and beyond. At check-in I was surprised that Kristy personally met my wife and I and walked us to our room. She also provided us with some cookies as a gift for our anniversary. She seems to care about her job and is the reason I'm writing this review. The 2nd floor room we had in the Na Hale wing was very nice. The Na Hale wing is a separate small building closer to the ocean with 14 rooms The bathroom was huge with 2 sinks and a LARGE walk in shower. We had a balcony looking at the fish pond and ocean. It was beautiful! Be aware that there is no elevator in the Na Hale wing, but that was not an issue for us. We ate the continental breakfast buffet each morning which was included for being a Platinum Bonvoy member. There was a $12/person upcharge for the full breakfast, but the continental breakfast was more than sufficient. The continental breakfast had fruits, breads, and pastries. It even included hot items such as waffles, pancakes, and one meat. BE AWARE that the breakfast area is outdoors and the birds are not afraid of people. They will fly on your table and eat your food if you aren't careful. Don't leave the table unattended with food on it. The downside to everything is the $30 resort fee. I absolutely hate resort fees and find them to be an easy way for hotels to get extra revenue. It did include a list of things including daily activities and 2 drinks. I knew of the resort fee beforehand, so it was no surprise. Overall a great stay and we would come back. We stayed at the Holiday Inn Express in Kona on our 4th night and it wasn't comparable. The Waikoloa Beach location of the Marriott is much better than being in Kona.

The view from Volcano House is magnificent. The food at the restaurants there is excellent. The lobby is nicely cooled by cross ventilation. One thing to keep in mind. If you stay there on a sunny day (we stayed there 2 nights), and if you have a room that faces the Caldera, it will also face a blazing afternoon sun. There is NO air conditioning, and you have to close the curtains in the room in the afternoon to keep out the blazing sun, so there is no air moving. It gets extremely hot in the caldera facing rooms in the afternoon, and it stays warm all night long. Very warm. We were on the ground-level floor, so we didn't feel comfortable leaving the window (actually a sliding door with a window in it) open all night. I think the 2nd floor rooms that don't face the caldera would be fine because they wouldn't get the afternoon solar heating and you could leave the window open at night if desired.

酒店環境極好。背靠山，面朝大海。配套有網球場和高爾夫球場都是無敵海景。餐廳全部面海，風景怡人。 酒店是內部開放式結構，四面有景。庭院裝修東方風格。 訂的海濱房，可看巨浪拍岸，日出日落都可在陽台上欣賞。房間裝修設施都很棒。就是面積略小。 自助早餐價格不便宜，但品質很好。 酒店禮賓部有很多活動預訂，但是第一次到大島，基本在外面看景點，徒步。沒有參加，很遺憾。第一次看到酒店的運動單車就在面朝大海的大廳裏 這是一個非常完美的五星度假酒店。尤其適合泡酒店，打高爾夫，網球，參加各種出海運動。
