Kids will never go out of things to do at Hilton Waikoloa Village. Aside from the white, sandy beach the Kohala Coast offers, kids will dig the enormous waterfront swimming pool. The Kona pool boasts water slides and a rope bridge, to name a few.

The place also features ocean-fed saltwater lagoons where guests can enjoy the sight of families of tropical fish and turtles while snorkeling. Who can't resist seeing a sea turtle?! If your kids are into marine animals, you can check out the Dolphin Quest offered by the resort, where marine mammal experts guide you and your children on a safe, interactive experience with these lovable creatures.

Give some depth to the occasion by trying on cultural classes where they can learn about Hawaiian history, play the ukulele, learn the hula, and more.
