The Fairway Villas at Waikoloa Beach Resort is located 25 minutes
north of the Kailua-Kona airport. This 10 acre lush tropical
paradise is situated within the Waikoloa Beach Golf Course, in the
same resort as the King's Golf Course and within minutes of all the
Kohala coast resort golf courses. The west side of Hawaii is
blessed with consistently dry sunny weather and is perfect for golf.
The Fairway Villas are loaded with luxury features and a distinctive
Hawaiian plantation architecture. The Anaehoomalu Bay (A-Bay) fish
pond and beach are located across the road and through the Marriott
Outrigger, it is a short walk or a 2 minute drive. The sunset is
beautiful from our lanai, but, sunset across the ancient Hawaiian
fishponds never disappoint. The famous Hapuna Beach Park is just a
10 minute drive on the Queens highway. Hapuna Beach is repeatedly
named one of the 10 best beaches in the world. Mauna Kea and Mauna
Lani beaches are even closer; we prefer the A-Bay beach at
Waikoloa.
We have been coming to Waikoloa for many years. We have stayed at
The Shores and the Vista Waikoloa. The Fairway Villas were built in
2003. After renting in The Fairway Villas a couple of trips we
decided to buy Unit I-2. We find I-2 comfortable with
wireless/wired broadband Internet access, stereo, DVD player, and
all the amenities you would expect in a new condo. Kona coffee
taste much better on our lanai than it does on the North Carolina
beach. I-2 is a ground floor unit so that lanai extends out into a
wide lawn overlooking the ninth fairway surrounded with colorful
fragrant tropical flora. There is no need to lug the groceries or
golf clubs up the elevator. Our condo is also at the very end of
the road so there is no traffic to contend with.
The pictures, floor plans, charts, and maps in this web site will
tell you more about our unit that I can in mere words. I will tell
you that I-2 is complete with air conditioning, microwave,
dishwasher, ice maker in the huge refrigerator, and a washer and
dryer. We find the washer and dryer very useful when packing
light! The grounds are well kept and the infinity swimming pool
quite unique. The Kings' Shops are a few minutes walk around the
lake for fine shopping and dinning. There is even a food court for
the kids or a quick snack. The Kings' Shops have a grocery store,
exclusive boutiques such as Louis Vuitton, fine art galleries like
the Dolphin Gallerie, Crazy Shirts, The Gecko Store, and live
music. Adjacent to the Kings' Shops is The Queens' Marketplace
which is currently under construction.
Also in the Waikoloa Resort area is the Hilton Waikoloa, it is
fabulous in itself, but, it also host the Dolphin Quest Center where
you can swim with the dolphins. This is an experience you will not
soon forget. The Big Island of Hawaii has a lot to offer everyone,
from the active volcano where the rocks ooze, to secluded black sand
beaches, 4WD adventures, scuba and snorkeling, hiking in rain forest
and desert lava beds, biking, horse back riding, deep-sea fishing,
surfing, parasailing, submarine adventures and helicopter
sightseeing. Oh yes, did I mention we play golf at Waikoloa?
