Aston Waikoloa Colony Villas

Pros: Nice big and spacious units. Lots of stuff left in the garage like body boards and shade etc.. Easy to access unit using keypad. The master bedroom and on-suite was great as was the lounge and dining room and kitchen were spacious. The pool was nice (if a bit cold) but the spa next to it was very comfortable to sit in while the kids played in the other pool. Lots of stuff in the kitchen to cook. The Hilton Pool was a little bonus. Accessibility to the bin area was easy. Instructions were concise (though there was a lot to read through that could be condensed). The place was mostly clean but some dust in areas... Disliked · Cons: I could barely park my car in the garage (if I didn't line up perfectly outside in the tiny courtyard there was no way I'd get in - could also only get out one side of the car in the garage). Garage remote didn't work really well.. Had to press it about 20 times before it opened. The location of the place was a little out of the way and you couldn't really walk anywhere except the pool without using the car. The bed in the second room creaked with every move and you kept feeling like you were going to fall out of it. We only used the Hilton Pool once as it's far away - the price for parking is ridiculous, the food prices are expensive and the pools are really cold. The stairs were all the same colour and felt a bit like a trip hazzard. The aircon was limited to 72 even thought we would have liked it a bit colder. We stayed in Unit 1605 (Not sure if all are the same or customed by owner)

Returned to this VRBO and saw nothing changed from last visit. Gates either propped open or not working. Dead or dying grass and plants throughout. Dumpsters still overflowing. Pavement stained with splashes of garbage. Assume this complex is entirely rentals so owners do not care. Sad!

We stayed at this property for a week and truly enjoyed it. The location is excellent, especially if you have kids and want to use Hilton's pools. We stayed at unit 505 which provided a pass to Hilton pools for 6 people. This unit was in excellent condition. The owner provided kitchen appliances, utensils, and beach necessities and toys.
