Location: Big Island of Hawaii

Situated on the extensive sunny Kohala Coast, stretching forty miles or so and connected by the King's Trail, where once malo-clad runners transported pond raised fish wrapped in ti leaves to the tables of Hawaiian Royalty living down the coast in Kailua-Kona. Today, this trail passes through modern luxury resorts and the many petroglyph fields. The lush green vegetation blends with the ebony lava fields and lush green fairways of world-renowned golf courses.

Description:

The Hilton Waikoloa Village is a destination in itself. Arriving guests cruise on mahogany boats along tranquil waterways to lavish accommodations. Guests may also choose to travel by air-conditioned tram or stroll leisurely along flagstone walkways flanked by Polynesian and Oriental artwork. The Resort's rooms and suites are divided among the three low-rise Ocean, Lagoon and Palace Towers in over 62 acres. Art treasures and antiques abound and furnishings are refined yet comfortable. Every room features spectacular tropical views and a private lanai (balcony).
