The staff let us check in early and stored our luggage until the room was available. Very friendly and kind! Modern and cozy feel and the coffee bar out front is amazing!

Hilton Waikoloa Village
The property is stunning and our room was lovely albeit very expensive (ie $1900 Canadian with breakfast). The lua was disappointing as it’s pretty much impossible to make a group of 800 people feel special. We will definitely come back but will be watchful of prices and special events .
