Restaurant Name:
Malolo Lounge
Food Type: Drinks
Price Range:
Open: Daily 7am - 1am
Malolo Lounge, inspired and designed with SS Malolo d飯r in mind. Situated adjacent to the resort's lobby, the Malolo Lounge provides a stylish and comfortable atmosphere reminiscent of the kama'aina lifestyle of yesteryear and was inspired by the historical SS MALOLO steamship.
There is a renewed interest in old Hawaii and Hawaiian culture. One icon of the era that was perceived to be long gone was the era of steamship travel among the Hawaiian islands before the war in the late 20's and early 30's. The inspirational SS MALOLO, that made its maiden voyage from San Francisco to Hawaii in 1927, signaled the birth of Hawaii tourism. America's ongoing fascination with all things Hawaiian from fashion to food to the intriguing aloha spirit can be traced back to this romantic era.
The Kama'aina living room atmosphere was inspired by the lounges aboard steamships that sailed from San Francisco to Hawaii during the early 1920's. The casual elegance of the Malolo Lounge includes five distinctive seating areas: Multi-purpose Lounge, Bar Lounge, Billiard Game Area and two Outdoor Lanais with a mix of rattan and teak furniture along with rich tropical colors and natural woods. The intimacy of these seating areas is enhanced by colorful carpeting, tall palm plants and lush orchids. The natural color scheme compliments the beauty, comfort, and simple elegance of this lounge.
Hawaiian art depicts the lush landscapes, volcanic scenery and colorful tropical images of the 1920's Steamship era. All artwork is original, created by artists from the Big Island. The artwork, the music and dance of the islands exudes the warm hospitality of Hilton Waikoloa Village.

We booked our vacation after the 9/11 attack. We were lucky to get a great rate at that time. It is the best resort we have ever stayed at. The kids loved the monorail and I loved the boats. I wish I could live there. It was so beautiful. The pools are fabulous. There several hot spas as well and wonderful poolside service. It has spoiled me for anything else. The shuttle takes you to a great beach. If I could afford it, I would stay a month.

The Best Hotel in All the Islands!!!!!!
My Husband and I just returned from our Honeymoon, where we had taken a cruise of the Hawaiian Islands and finished up our trip with a stay at the beautiful Hilton Waikoloa Village. The cruis was nice, but I would rather have spent more time at the Hilton!! I do a lot of traveling and I have to say that the Hilton Waikoloa Village has been the all around nicest Hotel I have stayed at!! The grounds are second to none, and the service.... from top to bottom was excellent!! Before our trip, we researched all the 4 and 5 star resorts on each island, and now truly believe we selected the best! It just doesn't get any better then this amazing resort! The Hilton Waikoloa Village is now our home away from home in Hawaii!!!

A true MEGA-resort
This place is HUGE! A monorail and Mohagany boats to take you around this place will give you some idea how big this place was. And I thought the Hilton Hawaiian Village in Oahu was BIG. We (group of 4) were lucky enough to get a room at the Lagoon tower which we believed was the better of the three towers. The beds were very comfortable. Looking out from our balcony (Lanai) we had the Dolphin pool to the left and the Lagoon to the right(great view). The Lagoon "pool" (which we thought was the best pool from the many they had) was close as well. If you visit this place try to get the Lagoon tower which is the closest one to the parking lot too. It's a long walk from the parking lot to the other towers (Ocean and Palace). The overall resort is 5 star quality. The staff as well especially the maids. Plenty of pools and plenty of beauty. Be prepared to spend some money though. Stuff there ain't cheap. Gotta see it though, it's a cool place. Aloha.
