Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Waikoloa Village

Where do I even start? What a magical home with lush landscaping. Waking up to large windows that look out to the ocean was priceless. The location was quiet and safe and close to many activities we wanted to do in Kona. The beds were very comfortable as well. The pool was nice to cool off in after a long day but keep in mind it is not heated so depending on the time of day or sunlight it may be too cold for some. Also, being in such a lush tropical landscape with a large natural area behind the house there are birds and frogs making noise in the evening, which can be calming to some (like us) or can be too loud for others. When we visit the Big Island again this would be number 1 option for our stay.

Really appreciated Joseph’s fast response in offering for us to check in early!

It was a great place close to the airport while having easy access to everything. Very clean and the beach equipment was amazing to have during our stay. Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful 7 day stay. Our 3 boys (16, 13, and 10) spent hours on the diving board and in the pool. Sandra’s place had everything we needed for beach trips, including beach chairs, wagon, umbrella, cooler and beach towels. I was so happy to have a washing machine to wash out the sandy towels and suits after our beach trips. It was a 5-10 minute trip for Costco,-target and Walmart and a 30-40 minute trip to Hāpuna Beach (don’t miss the Malsada stand on the highway on your way). We would come back to the house to cook supper, swim more in the pool, and watch the sunset from the beautiful yard. We also got a lot of use out of the basketball net in the driveway, and volleyball net in the side yard. Sandra was extremely helpful with all aspects of our stay, including local recommendations. Would definitely stay again if on the Big Island!

This is a beautiful and immaculate home. Very spacious and accommodated our whole family for my son’s 30 birthday, I would come again!

The house, which is very spacious, is located in a quiet residential neighborhood (the only real noise is from the many birds), which is five minutes from a grocery store and some restaurants in Waikoloa Village, and there are many restaurants, beaches, and things to do within a 30-minute drive; downtown Kailua-Kona is 45 minutes, and Volcanoes National Park and Hilo are about two hours (but easy driving everywhere, except for typical urban traffic congestion in Kona). The landscaping is amazing, and the backyard with a swimming pool is extremely private. It is also west-facing, so you get gorgeous sunsets with a slight ocean view (the property is inland). The AC units (for which there is an extra charge) are only in the bedrooms, so the house gets stuffy during the day, but cools off quickly in the evening. We had one minor maintenance issue, but the host, Andy, was responsive and addressed it quickly. We would definitely return if we have a future trip to the Big Island.

Wonderful place for our several days there. Fantastic view and very spacious. Several restaurants were in town. Waimea had few tourists but still was close to several small out-of-the-way towns we otherwise would not have thought of to visit.

Stunning view that’s perfect for sunsets. The house is well equipped, clean, and the beds are comfortable. The beach gear is perfect for a trip to Hapuna or beyond. Richard was responsive and even proactive offering early check in.

We really enjoyed Kathy’s condo. It was close to all of our snorkeling tours. Kathy is a very responsive host and gave great recommendations for food and activities. Thank you for a wonderful visit!

Our stay was prefect and incredibly peaceful! it felt like staying with a friend or relative. There were so many wonderful touches. The major draw was the beautiful creek and waterfall and falling asleep with the windows open and the sounds of the jungle. It was tucked away and a wonderful glimpse of local living. A few notes for other travelers: there are other rentals on the property; however, we did not see anyone else besides Darrin upon arrival. Also, this is not one of those sterile, squeaky clean airbnbs that you might be useful. Its definitely super clean but has a "real house" sort of feel. Also, no AC as far as we could tell but it was very cool (and I run hot!) Also, the value for island accommodations was awesome and much appreciated! Darrin was extremely kind to ensure we had a crib for our little ones and even left fresh bananas on our doorstep in the morning - our toddler LOVED opening the door to see this surprise. Oh! and the bed was glorious! Mahalo!

Wow and wow! Joyce and Zac have gone above and beyond to create a space that is comfortable and private. While the accommodations are indeed attached to their home, the retreat presents like a private apartment. The kitchen is well-stocked, making it easy to cook in for meals, if desired. Nothing has been forgotten concerning the little touches that make traveling easier, so we would consider this rental much better than a hotel. There is no air-conditioning, but numerous fans are provided and we were comfortable during our June stay. The online pictures very accurately depict what you'll see when you arrive. Check-in and check-out was a breeze. We whole-heartedly recommend this rental and plan to return on our next trip to Kona.

Very good place to stay and nice amenities.

Best place we could have stayed. The amenities were above what we expected. Beach towels, chairs and umbrellas, cold filtered water, everything was extremely clean like what you’d expect at a very nice hotel. Spacious parking. Grill if needed and a full kitchen. Shampoo, conditioner and body wash. Great size closets and lots of room for all your luggage. Even the TV access was a great perk. So many local shops and markets to visit within less than 5 minutes away. If we come back, we would definitely stay again and refer to anyone else visiting the Big Island. Our room was on the third floor and it provided the most beautiful view of the ocean with lots of patio space.

Absolutely loved staying at Bailey’s place in Puako. It was so tranquil and gorgeous with the sound of the ocean at night and the amazing birds in the morning. The unit was very comfortable with a well stocked kitchen. We were 3 people - our teenage son slept on the pull out couch in the living room - you do have to walk through the bedroom to access the bathroom. This was fine for us. I loved the screen porch!! Bailey left so much info that helped us and was responsive to any request. We would happily come back here again.

It's the house of my dream. Everything in the house is taken really good care of by Priscilla and Rob, and the house is definitely one of my favorite places in Kona. I really hope that I can come back soon, and I will bring you a small gift from China, Priscilla~~💜

Overall this was a really great stay - the hosts were very responsive, the Airbnb was spotless, and it was well stocked with everything you could need.

The place is beautiful and very well stocked. We had everything we needed for our family of four (including our 15 month old) to feel comfortable and safe. Also the nice touches of decoration made the place welcoming and home like. The bed was so comfortable! And the bathroom was very clean. The beach gear was also so nice to have! Everything from the beach chairs to the snorkeling masks and sand toys!

Amazing stay at Madeline’s place! It was so so clean, beautifully decorated, comfortable bed, great air conditioning in the bedroom, quiet, the kitchen was perfectly stocked so we were able to cook food and pack lunches and snacks, had a great pool area, and was conveniently located close to many good beaches and amenities. I would recommend this place to everyone! Thanks for a great stay Madeline :)

It’s a lovely spot. Very pleasant and not too far from the beach.

We had a truly perfect stay at Brittney’s apartment! The place was spotlessly clean, beautifully furnished, and full of thoughtful touches. It’s set in a gorgeous location with two lovely pools, and the added bikes, beach and water gear were such a bonus. Brittney was incredibly proactive, kind, and responsive in her communication, which made us feel truly cared for throughout our visit. She even provided a crib, highchair, and baby gate, which made traveling with our 10-month-old so easy. We stayed as four adults and a baby, and the apartment was very spacious and comfortable for all of us. Every detail was so well thought out—it really felt like a home away from home. It’s clear that Brittney has thought of everything to make her guests feel comfortable and welcome. We were sad to leave and would absolutely love to stay here again. This place is a real gem, and I recommend it 100%! Thank you so much, Brittney!

Ryan did an excellent job communicating. We showed up to a stress-free check-in process and simply started enjoying the warm, quiet surroundings. Our kids, 11 and 9, enjoyed many trips to both pools on the property. The Internet speed was good, and the offering of TV channels was nice as well. The kitchen was well-appointed and made it easy for us to cook our meals for our family of four. The parking pass was easy to use and we were always able to find parking close to the unit. I'm not sure when we will be headed back to the Big Island, but we will certainly be looking for availability at Ryan's place.

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful condo in Waikoloa! The views were absolutely breathtaking. Our favorite part of the trip was being able to watch the beautiful sunset each evening from the lanai. The space itself was spotless, well-maintained, and had everything our family needed for a comfortable and relaxing vacation. What truly made this stay exceptional was the host — incredibly responsive, kind, and so easy to work with. She went above and beyond to make sure we had a perfect trip. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!

Very clean, well-appointed, wonderful amenities, Hilton pool pass was such a nice addition and really made our stay, kid friendly, great location for our family. Would do it again!

Our stay at this condo was absolutely fantastic. The space was extraordinarily comfortable, impeccably clean, and perfectly situated. The real highlight was the easy access to the stunning pool and beach—both just a few minutes’ walk away. The pool and beach area were truly breathtaking and added so much to our experience. The location was ideal, allowing us to explore the area easily, and check-in was seamless. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay and would highly recommend it! We would definitely stay here again
