$3.57 Million Kolea 13C Sale Highlights Changing Conditions at Waikoloa Beach Resort
WAIKOLOA, Hawaiʻi – September 24, 2026 — Kolea 13C at Waikoloa Beach Resort has closed for $3.57 million, marking another significant luxury condominium transaction on Hawaiʻi Island’s Kohala Coast.
The sale comes as the Waikoloa Beach Resort condominium market continues to show a wide range of pricing and buyer activity. According to The Hawaii Team’s August 2026 Waikoloa Beach Resort Market Report, two condominium sales closed during the month, with sale prices ranging from $750,000 to $949,000. The median sale price was $849,500, with properties averaging 170 days on the market.
In comparison, July 2026 recorded seven condominium sales at Waikoloa Beach Resort, with prices ranging from $857,500 to $3 million. The median sale price was $1.43 million, and properties averaged 192 days on the market. The seven closings represented the highest condominium sales volume among the major resort communities along the coast that month.
A Series of Significant 2026 Sales
The $3.57 million Kolea 13C closing follows other notable transactions associated with The Hawaii Team earlier this year.
In March 2026, 76-981 Aeo St. in Kailua-Kona sold for $4.3 million. The property was listed by Daniel Polimino of KW Big Island.
In June 2026, a condominium at Hualālai Resort sold for $5.41 million, slightly above its $5.4 million asking price after just four days on the market. The transaction represented 100.10% of the Sale/Current Price, with a sale price of approximately $2,032 per building square foot.
In September, Kolea 13C closed for $3.57 million, adding another notable luxury condominium transaction to The Hawaii Team’s 2026 activity.
These transactions are just a few examples of the many successful sales The Hawaii Team has handled across Hawaiʻi Island in 2026, representing a range of luxury properties and price points.
What the Waikoloa Market Is Showing
The difference between July and August also demonstrates why individual market statistics need to be viewed in context.
While July had seven condominium closings, August had only two, creating a smaller sample size for the month. At the same time, the range of sale prices shows that activity is occurring across different segments of the Waikoloa Beach Resort condominium market.
In August, the average sale represented 94.95% of the current asking price, while the average Sale/Original Price was 84%. These figures provide additional context for sellers when evaluating pricing and positioning in the current market.
For higher-end properties such as Kolea 13C, the strategy extends beyond simply placing a property on the market. Reaching the appropriate buyers requires strong positioning, professional presentation, targeted digital exposure, and marketing that can reach buyers both locally and outside Hawaiʻi.
“Kolea 13C required patience, persistence, and a marketing effort that went well beyond the island. Our focus was on making sure the property was positioned correctly and seen by buyers who understood the value of a Kolea property,” said Daniel Polimino, Broker of The Hawaii Team.
Strategic Marketing for Luxury Properties
The sale of Kolea 13C illustrates the role that pricing, positioning, exposure, and persistence can play when marketing a luxury property in a competitive environment.
With approximately 10 properties currently offered for sale in Kolea, buyers have multiple opportunities to compare properties within the community. That makes it particularly important for a seller’s property to stand out through its presentation, pricing, and marketing strategy.
“A successful sale isn't just about putting a property on the market. It's about understanding where that property fits, identifying the right audience, and creating a marketing strategy that gives it the opportunity to reach the right buyer,” Polimino added.
