E Komo Mai (Welcome)
Our COVID-19 Health and Safety Plan (Safe Stay Hawaii) is available to view in full at safestayhawaii.com and will provide you with the health and safety standards implemented by Hawaii’s Tourism Industry, including at Hilton Waikoloa Village. These standards provide guests, customers, employees, contractors, vendors and other persons who enter hotel premises in Hawaii with expectations in terms of service, accommodations and required safety protocols.
In addition, Hilton Waikoloa Village has activated Hilton CleanStay with Lysol protection to deliver an industry-defining standard of cleanliness and disinfection in Hilton properties across the world. Our elevated processes and Team Member training have been developed with RB, maker of Lysol and Dettol, to help guests enjoy an even cleaner and safer stay from check-in to check-out.
Hawaii’s Governor has issued an emergency proclamation:
- All persons in the State shall wear a face covering over their nose and mouth when in public indoor areas.
- All persons entering the State of Hawai‘i from other U.S. states shall submit to Hawaii’s Travel Rules as outlined in our TRAVEL TO HAWAII procedures below.

All arriving passengers are required to generate a Safe Travels QR code as shown below. Children ages 5 and older must be tested if they are not fully vaccinated, regardless of their parent or guardian’s vaccination status.
- INTERISLAND ARRIVALS: Interisland flights do not require testing or proof of vaccination.
