The Resort and Its Setting

Kings' Land is a Hilton Grand Vacations Club property in Waikoloa, on the Big Island's Kohala Coast. As an HGVC-branded timeshare resort, it follows Hilton's vacation ownership model, with units sold as deeded or points-based weeks rather than hotel rooms. The resort sits within the wider Waikoloa resort community, a developed area built around golf, beach access and shopping, rather than an isolated property.

Waikoloa and the Kohala Coast

Waikoloa is one of the Big Island's established resort areas, laid out with golf courses, shopping centres and beach access points connecting the various hotels and timeshare resorts in the district. Anaeho'omalu Bay, a short distance away, is one of the better-known beaches on this coast, with calm water suited to swimming and snorkelling. The Waikoloa Beach Golf Club's two courses are within easy reach, and the neighbouring Hilton Waikoloa Village adds further restaurants and shops to the mix. Further afield, Kailua-Kona and the Big Island's volcanic interior make for realistic day trips if you're happy to rent a car.

Selling or Renting a Week Here

If you own at Kings' Land and want to sell or rent out your week, BidMyTimeshare.com works as a direct, owner-to-owner marketplace: you list the week yourself, set your own asking price, and pay a single one-time listing fee — there's no commission taken on the sale or rental. Buyers and renters contact you directly through the platform.

Before agreeing on a price, it's worth understanding what a resale actually involves with this brand. According to Hilton Grand Vacations, resale transfers carry a $736 activation fee, a $504 ownership change fee and a $102 estoppel fee (figures effective from 1 January 2026, up from $715, $489 and $99 in 2025). HGV's club rules also allow for a right of first refusal, which brokers report is typically exercised within a 30-day window — so a sale to the buyer who first agreed terms isn't always guaranteed to go through.

It's equally important for buyers to know what they will and won't get. Resale purchasers at Kings' Land receive the underlying ownership, but not access to HGV Max, only limited Hilton Honors points conversion, no automatic elevated Honors status, and no Open Season booking benefits. Brokers quote transfer times ranging from four to six weeks at the faster end up to 60–120 days in other cases, so patience is part of the process on both sides.

Renters, meanwhile, are typically looking at dates, unit size and proximity to the beach and golf — be ready to confirm these details clearly in your listing, along with whatever exchange affiliation your specific contract carries.

Practical Notes for Buyers and Owners

Kings' Land is affiliated with RCI, which allows members to deposit their week for exchange through RCI's network of affiliated resorts — useful to mention if you're marketing a rental or resale to a buyer who travels to multiple destinations rather than returning to Hawaii every year. Because resale terms (fees, exchange rights, Honors conversion) sit with Hilton Grand Vacations rather than with any individual seller, buyers should always confirm current figures directly with HGV before completing a purchase, as fee schedules are updated periodically.

Travel Tips

Rent a car if you want to see beyond Waikoloa itself — Kailua-Kona and the volcanic interior are both realistic day trips but require your own transport. If you hold RCI exchange rights through your ownership, factor in enough lead time to deposit your week and search for alternative destinations. Shoulder months outside the busiest winter season tend to bring fewer crowds on the golf courses and at Anaeho'omalu Bay.
