Aloha and welcome to your vacation paradise, and your “Home in the Sun”, Hale Akala BT 404, in the luxurious Ko Olina Beach Villas Resort, on the calm, leeward, west coast of Oahu. Relax and enjoy this ULTIMATE luxurious paradise -- you may find that you want to return often!

Once a historic playground for Hawaiian royalty, the private gated Ko Olina Resort offers all you need to fulfill your needs for the day, a weeklong vacation, weeks long remote work, or however long your heart desires. The resort features four lagoons for swimming, snorkeling and sunbathing.

Ko Olina is uniquely situated among all the Hawaiian Islands in that it offers an 'outer-island experience' with the convenience of being 30 minutes from the city energy of Honolulu & Waikiki. There's no other place like it!

One of the most exclusive villas in the Ko Olina Beach Villas Resort, your luxurious 3 bedroom, 3 full bath oceanview villa, 'Hale Akala 404', has been designed to achieve perfect Feng Shui balance, both in terms of its location (4th floor) and views (unobstructed views of the ocean and the mountains), and well as the top-of-the-line amenities inside the villa.

The villa is appointed with new luxurious living room furniture that includes a queen size sleeper sofa and two chairs with ottomans for each. If you plan on using the sleeper sofa, please let us know so we can point you to a video showing how to assemble the bed and protective covering and sheet to use (which are stored inside the innovative couch). Mahalo for your help in keeping things in good condition for other guests to enjoy!

The villa is also equipped with a new stacked washer/dryer with greater capacity and faster drying than standard units in most villas and a new dual dishwasher.

Your deluxe accommodation is just steps from your very own beach, and from the amenities of our exclusive vacation community and world-class resort - championship golf, a full service spa, swimming pools and ocean lagoons, fine restaurants, a 300 slip private marina for chartered sailing, snorkeling, scuba diving, fishing trips and more.

Fantastic family vacation for all ages!
Six family members (ages 9-72) stayed for a week in this lovely condo. Our other family members stayed in two other condos on the same floor--it was wonderful! The view from the lanai is really beautiful--and a great spot to watch not only sunsets, but the antics of random family members in the ocean lagoon with their inner tubes, boogie boards (included), noodles (included), etc. The lawn chairs have back-pack style straps--easy to transport to beach. The kitchen is perfectly set up for meal preparation--all appliances and utensils are right at hand and in good condition. Bedrooms were spacious and comfortable, bathrooms were nicely updated. Having a washer/dryer unit in the condo was great! The fastest way to get to the beach is to turn left as you walk out of the building and walk on the sidewalk by the parking lot on the side of the building. You can also turn right out of the building and wind around the lagoon pool/hot tubs/outdoor bar areas to get to the beach--either way takes just 2-4 minutes. We usually hit the beach earlier in the morning, then warmed up in the pool and then ended with either the warm hot tub, or the really warm hot tub--a really delightful routine! We had several windy days which churned up the water, so visibility for snorkeling wasn't great. We did have a close turtle encounter (it swam right by us) and saw an eel in nearby Paradise Cove We all agreed--it was a very special place to spend time in Hawaii! Thank you!

Perfect!
Beautiful villa and amazing views. The property is outstanding. Ko Olina is a peaceful retreat. The ocean is safe with a protected reef with fish for snorkeling. Tip: swim to the buoys in the middle of the swimming cove: move hand along any part of the rope to loosen the algae and watch the fish swarm to eat it. Walk past Four Seasons to see Hawaiian Monk seal on small beach (keep distance). We loved both pools and bar for mai tais and yummy drinks. Renu is a wonderful host. The villa has everything you need for an amazing stay. Comfortable beds, towels, furniture. Beach chairs, cooler. We just loved it. Book this. It’s a 10/10.

Needed Family Vacation
Being able to have three families/generations in one residence was very nice! Having a full kitchen to make some of our meals was also helpful and needed for such a large group of people. Everyone had a memorable time! Wish the Nanea Hale beachside bar served better food and had more people working it.

Perfect accommodations
This 3 bedroom condo was perfect for our family gathering. It was roomy with 3 bedrooms AND 3 bathrooms with tasteful and comfortable furnishings. We could start our day with coffee on the balcony and have a beautiful view to the mountains on our right and on our left was the beach and ocean just steps away. The staff were friendly and helpful. The condo came with all the supplies needed for a day at the beach. It was a wonderful stay enjoyed by everyone in our group from age 5 to 68!

Terrific property
This was, as many have said here, the perfect place for our family vacation. I will not otherwise repeat all the positive things. They are all consistent with our experience. I would say the dining choices near the resort are not abundant. The only reasonably priced high quality food we found was Monkeypod. The Four Seasons has high end dining which we used twice.

Perfect family vacation villa.
We couldn't ask for better accommodations. We had a fantastic Lanai overlooking the ocean. The three bedrooms were roomy and very comfortable. The kitchen and living room provided ample space for cooking eating and just hanging out. Having the laundry and 2 zone AC was a plus. Our host Renu always promptly replied when we had any questions or concerns and always made us feel right at home. Our only regret was we didn't stay longer. Thank you Renu. We will always have fond memories of our stay with you.

Great location
The Ko Olina property has it all! Wonderful pools and access to a beautiful beach right out your front door. Easy access to shops and restaurants. The condo itself was well furnished with all the amenities you need for a week long vacation. Only a few things that could use an upgrade would be bedding. Pillows and blankets were worn out. And most of the beach toys were broken or worn out. (Broken buckets and boogie boards broken.) Also the instruction manual needs to be updated to include the new dishwasher. The power to the building went out the last day but our contact, Nicole was very helpful. Thanks for a great week!

Beautiful Condo!
Beautiful, spacious condo with extra amenities to enjoy the beach! Our group of 5 adults and 2 children enjoyed the wagon and beach chairs. Wonderful view of the lagoon, and easy walk to the pool and beach. Also an easy walk to the marketplace with several restaurants. Only disappointment we experienced was that the listing originally stated the 3rd bedroom had a king bed AND 2 twins, which is why we chose this condo over others (reason for 4 stars on review), however, this has since been changed on the website. There was room for all, but just not configured how we had planned. It’s a perfect condo for 3 couples where each has their own bedroom and bathroom. Would definitely recommend it and we would love to stay again sometime!

Perfect Location
This was our first time in KoOlina and we loved it! The Beach Villas are not as crowded at adjacent properties so there was always room at the pools and beach. The walk along the water from the marina to Paradise Cove is fantastic. It's fun to stop in to the other properties for meals, coffee, cocktails, shop or just look around. There are plenty of restaurants within walking distance but you do need transportation for grocery shopping. We had a family group of 16 with 8 people in 2 separate 3 bedroom units and that worked very well for us. Our particular unit was well appointed and had everything we needed for cooking as well as lots of beach chairs, toys and towels for the pool or beach.

This property is exactly as advertised. The Host thought of everything a family would need right down to the collapsible wagon to take a 2 1/2 year old and towels,etc to the fabulous pools. The Lanai was the best - never in full sun, never got to hot with a great view of the lagoon. I really can’t say enough to adequately describe how perfect this property is, just stay here. You won’t regret it. The Host communicates everything clearly and has people in place to welcome you and answer your questions - so professional. Stay here if you are going to be on the IIsland!

We stayed at this property 10/22-10/29. First, Renu was super responsive and Nicole was awesome and accommodating. When we arrived at the condo all of our mouths fell open when we walked in...its even more beautiful than the pictures! And the Lanai...spectacular! What a great view of the ocean - I loved sitting on it at night and listening to the waves. My husband and I had the master, and we were pleasantly surprised with the comfort of the bed, as well as the water pressure in the shower. This was our first visit to Oahu, but it won't be our last.
