Top Rated 5 Bedroom with Private Heated Pool and Spa in Waikoloa Beach
Ainamalu - Protected Land - is a newer resort area on the big island. This is a luxurious and unique oasis: it is away from the tourist crowds, yet only minutes from great restaurants, grocery stores and some of the best beaches in the world.
Ainamalu Memories is a private and personalized experience designed to make lasting memories for families and friends. Five bedrooms and four bathrooms gives you the freedom to enjoy time together making meals together, playing in the pool, or having conversations in the hot tub. Or you can recharge with private downtime having Kona coffee watching the sunrise over unobstructed views of Mauna Kea, relaxing in your own room or while working out in a gym with a Peloton, treadmill and Bowflex dumbbells. It’s the best of resort living and the best of a private residence, all within your reach.
Our home has the highest and most ratings of any home in Ainamalu. Our bright and sunny interior features stunning furnishings and décor that draw you in for comfortable conversation, while the spacious lanai and pool invite you to relax, sun, and swim outside. Watch movies together on our 70 inch TV. The gourmet kitchen – complete with island, gas range, hood, and French door refrigerator – is perfect for family meals. “The kitchen has every gadget you need. The kitchen pans and utensils were top quality, not what you usually get with rentals.” Coffee lovers get a free bag of whole beans from #1 rated Big Island Coffee Roasters with their choice of drip coffee, Keurig and Nespresso.
Do laps in the full-size pool, heated during the day free of charge. Stargaze while soaking in the bubbling hot tub, or push a button for vibrant pool lights. “The pool/hot tub combination provided hours of fun and relaxation for all of us.” The garage is full of beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards and other pool toys for you to drive 10 minutes to world class beaches like Hapuna, Beach 49 or Mauna Kea and then chill in the pool after.
We also offer unique services that no one else offers. We have preferred vendors for massages in home and private chefs we love that our renters get special offers. Our renters get access to our Substack and AI concierge trained on 50+ simple tips that make a big difference in your big island vacation. You can chat, text or even call and talk to the AI concierge as you plan and enjoy your trip.
Within the spacious interior, you’ll find the Master Retreat only steps from the pool, spa, and lounging area. This luxurious suite is complete with a double vanity, marble shower, and outdoor lava rock changing area.
A second bedroom enjoys its own private entrance at the front of the house. A third bedroom gains its own direct access to the lanai, pool, and peak views, as well as its own changing alcove. Along with a fourth bedroom within the home, family or friends can have the added privacy of the Ohana suite - a fifth bedroom with its own entrance, bath, and seating area. With its private access from the driveway and its own AC, this space offers both seclusion and a special peek of the ocean across the lava field.

Best family vacation
The property was as described. It was generously stocked with toiletries, beach towels, beach and pool amenities. Enough beach chairs and umbrellas , several boogie boards, snorkeling gear. The house was perfect for our family of 10! Several beaches nearby enjoyed by the family. We loved the pool and the sunrises from the lanai! We were able to really enjoy family time on the home. It was so relaxing! Best family vacation ever! Didn't take any pictures of the house because they match those provided in the description. The big open area was perfect for family games!

Great place to stay
We had a perfect stay here. It’s in a standalone development but nearby to a resort area with markets, shops, and restaurants. It was enjoyable to hang out at the house/pool and there are also a lot of great beaches within a 15 minute radius. We ended up exploring most of the island and it was an ideal base to visit Kona, Waimea, Hilo, and even a manageable day trip to Volcanoes National Park. Hosts were friendly and responsive but not intrusive. Would love to come back again someday soon.

Paradise
This home was truly a hub for making the best memories. We had never been to Hawaii so we found the location to be perfect, close to so many beaches and within a drive to many adventures. The house was the most stocked home I’ve ever stayed in, with everything labeled and easy to find. Our kids loved the pool, and we loved having the gym in the garage. Even beach accessories were provided! This was truly a gem of a home and made for SO many family memories, we hope to return!

What a delight!
From the moment we stepped into this 5-bedroom paradise on the Big Island, we were blown away. With a group of seven, one might expect to feel a bit cramped, but not here. The spacious layout and thoughtful design made it feel like everyone had their own personal retreat.
The cleanliness was impeccable. A great deal of care is taken to ensure guests feel comfortable and at home. Every detail was thought of – from a well-equipped kitchen to comfy linens, this house had everything we needed for our week-long stay.
This is a special shout-out to Mike, the property manager. He was truly the icing on the cake. Always available, attentive, Mike made our stay even more memorable. His dedication to guest satisfaction is evident, and it’s managers like him that turn a great vacation into an unforgettable one.
In summary, if you're seeking a blend of beauty, comfort, and top-notch service on the Big Island, look no further. This place is a gem, and we cannot recommend it enough! We’re already looking forward to our next visit.

Another lovely stay
This is a beautiful house and setting. This house has everything you need. The kitchen has every gadget you need and plenty of room to cook. We woke up to the sunrise over the mountains. The pool and hot tub combo worked well for those times you did not want to venture out to one of several nearby beaches. Really we could not ask for anything more!

Family vacation in Waikoloa
The house was great for our large family and we enjoyed our stay. With the layout, each couple and their children had their own space and bathrooms, and the kids had a great time with the pool. The house has lots of beach toys and chairs available for use, and the gym was very awesome. The only challenge was the management company's communication. When we first arrived, we couldn't find the pack and play that they said would be there (it turned out to be in the bottom of a bedroom closet), and the communication from the manager was prompt but a bit rude. The house also only provided enough toilet paper, trash bags, paper towels etc for about 3 days (we stayed a week). When I asked the manager if there were any extra available, I received a rude text that I should've read the check in instructions more closely and gone to Costco to buy these items on my way into town. I checked my email and had only an invitation to download a check-in app, which the manager said didn't have the right information and should be disregarded. I asked him to resend the email instructions, and never received them. Given the price of the rental, it seemed a bit petty to only leave a few rolls of toilet paper and other basic items and demand that renters go to Costco upon arrival.

Terrific house
We really enjoyed our stay. The place was clean, very well maintained,and extremely well equipped. Communication etc was smooth and easy. Renters guide with pictures and explanation was great. The kitchen had everything. And all the kitchen pans utensils were top quality. Not what we usually get with rentals. Check in/out was super easy without a list of chores to do before leaving, which was great- that IS what the cleaning fee is for. Bedrooms and bathrooms were large, pool wonderful and the mini gym was awesome. One of the best rentals we’ve stayed in and we travel several times a year for many years. Highly recommend.

We had an amazing extended family vacation here. 5 rooms and large common areas gave plenty of space to gather and retreat. Amazing pool and hot tub, kitchen (we made most of the meals here - well stocked). Watching Beautiful sunrises w a cup of coffee over the mountain each morning was a great way to start the day. Nice thoughtful touches - gym area, pool toys, beach toys, bikes, peloton and treadmill, well manicured lawn and friendly neighborhood. Highly recommend.
