We have been coming to the Big Island for nearly 20 years and staying mostly in Sea Village. This is, by far, the best unit we have stayed in. The owner was responsive, the unit was very clean and well-stocked with everything we needed to enjoy our trip. We will be staying here again without a doubt. Mahalo!

The condo itself is fine. It is well equipped and in a central location. Descriptions and pictures of the condo are an accurate depiction. The complex is well maintained as well. The owners checked to make sure things were fine.We experienced a family emergency, causing us to shorten our stay. We communicated directly with the owners about our situation. However, there was a delayed reply to our inquiry regarding leaving early and a possible partial refund. Evidently, owners are not able to influence VRBO policies on refunds even though life happens. They did, however, continue to communicate on items they wished us to check in on at the condo. While the condo is a good place to stay, the level of communication and lack of refund left a sour taste in our mouth.

Very nice location. Good view of the ocean. We saw whales and dolphins from our balcony. Close, but not too close, to restaurants and shops.

This is the third time that we have stayed at Sea Village but the first time in this unit. The grounds and buildings are kept in excellent condition. The view from the unit overlooks the common area that includes a well-maintained swimming poot and four gas BBQs as well as the ocean. It is about a 15-minute walk into town where there are many restaurants and shops. Our hostess was very easy to work with and quick to respond to any questions or needs that we had. A few things are a bit dated, but we would definitely stay in this unit again.

We completely enjoyed our stay. Property was as comfortable as it was beautiful. Owner responded to all requests or needs promptly and professionally. We wouldn't hesitate to book again while on the Big Island.

Nice place, guest bath sink was a little wonky to use, other than being a bit outdated it was a great place to stay. We would stay there again.

We've rented this condo before and love it. The only problem with it is that it's right next to the swimming pool and for us in EST, the first couple of nights you go to bed before 9pm and so it can be hard to sleep. Other than that-a wonderful place! We love that it's a mile from the city so you can walk into town each night.

Reviewer Comments:
From the moment we arrived, we loved this place. Beautiful location looking out over the ocean with stunning sunsets nightly from the lanai. Set back from Alii Drive, so no road noise. Nicely equipped kitchen, Knutson even told me what kind of coffee pot before we arrived so I could get my first morning fix before shopping. Had a small problem with the washing machine, but a repairman was there within an hour (on the weekend) and got us up and running immediately. I highly recommend Knutson & Assoc.; they are professional and knowledgeable - getting ready to book with them again for next year.

This rental was a great choice! We loved the location, the view, and the overall vibe. It was clean, quiet, and comfortable. We enjoyed the pool, community grills, and neighboring cafe. Walkable distance to shops, restaurants, and beach. Check in was simple, host was responsive, parking was a breeze… Highly recommend.

Had a humpback whale show right from our deck at least 4 of the 10 days we stayed at the place. Amazing views, sunsets and the sound of the waves crashing against the breakwater. Beautiful place. No air conditioning. No worries. Don’t need it. The cool ocean breeze kept the place just right. This condo is exactly as described in the VRBO site and lacks nothing. Thanks Cullen.

We spent two lovely weeks in this beautiful condo. We walked the one mile into Kona every morning and loved that it was close enough to walk. We had a million dollar view of the ocean where we saw whales and dolphins. Condo was equipped with everything you needed and we were pleasantly surprised that you really didn’t need air conditioning, the ocean breeze kept it very comfortable! Appreciated sharp knives and good pans in the kitchen which we haven’t had in many condos we rent. We were a little worried about the rooms being off the parking lot but we had no problems with noise. It was a lovely property.

The location of the unit can’t be beat. Close enough to walk into historic Kona, directly on the ocean with great views to the west. Whale watching and sunsets from the deck were fabulous. The unit itself was a bit tired in that the shower door tracks and fixtures had rusted areas. The kitchen is not well supplied. We had to call to get hot pads and a baking sheet pan. Which was delivered the same day as it was requested. The refrigerator went out and we ended up having to get a loner. Space got tight with the loner frig, as the broken one remained in place waiting for parts. The management team addressed the frig. issue immediately the day I called. There was a blender available and I used it for smoothies but it leaked. The cooking knives were marginal at best and the sink/disposal were both missing strainers/covers.

We really enjoyed this condo at Sea Village! The corner balcony has a spectacular view!The condo has a ceiling fan in the living room and bedroom, and additional fans too, which was nice.It was wonderful that it was located so close to the shopping and restaurants. There was even an espresso stand located in the same parking lot which was convenient.The bath towels were nice and soft. It was helpful that you had a night light that we could use for the bathroom.The kitchen had everything we needed. It was nice that there were beach items in the unit for use.The unit was conveniently located near the pool and the parking lot.We had a great time and will rent here again!

Clean, reasonable, adequate with excellent communication with manager. We had the water turned off for a few hours one afternoon, and we were immediately contacted by the manager to let us know what to expect. The unit was well stocked, clean, and we felt quite safe.

Definately needs work. Lanai sliding glass doors were impossible to see through due to broken seals as well as just dirty. Window screens were filthy. More attention to detail in cleaning is badly needed.

The property was great, nice pool, views were amazing. The place was clean and had everything, maybe a couple bowls, plastic dishes and for the BBQ area would be a nice addition. There was lots of spices, oil, etc. The bedroom was hot and the air conditioner was noisy. The mattress needs replacing as it's a bit like sleeping in a hammock. There are tons of beach chairs, boogie boards, there's an umbrella, cooler and lots of snorkel gear too. Easy check in and Michael responded quickly to any messages or concerns. glasses would be helpful

This property was amazing. The view from the lanai is unbelievable. It is as if you could almost touch the ocean. It is located in the heart of downtown Kona within walking distance to everything. Everything we needed for a day at the beach was supplied. Air conditioning kept the place as cool as you want it. Easy contact made with property contact. I would book this condo again in a heartbeat

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed in the condo for 16 days in January 2025. The views and lanai are outstanding. The kitchen is fully stocked with dishes, baking ware, coffee pot, toaster etc. The two bedrooms are good size. The condo has a lot of beach gear, including chairs, umbrella, boogie boards, snorkeling equipment, towel and beach toys for children. The unit is in close proximity to the pool. The pool is lovely and very welcoming temperature wise. The unit also has lots of games and books for entertainment. Also, a tv in living room and one bedroom. The condo can get quite warm for sleeping. There is an air conditioning unit in the living room but in my opinion, it serves no purpose. There is no elevator. There is plenty of parking. We plan on returning to this unit next January. The host of the unit is very responsive to any questions or issues.

We really enjoyed the gorgeous views and peaceful place! It was just as the pictures showed! Well stocked kitchen! Beach chairs and snorkeling gear. The pool was beautiful with great views of the ocean. There were grills and picnic tables to use in the courtyard. They were cleaned by staff every morning!

If you want a great view of the water from your condo, a very quiet complex, and want to be close to the busy town of Kailua Kona with many shops, restaurants, and attractions this is your place. Teresa was so helpful and responsive to our questions and helped us navigate the island. Easy to find and in a walkable area. The condo has all you need to eat in and relax in a well stocked unit. But what is best about this condo is the view, the view, the view!

Appears stairs remodel was not completed and some funky temporary covering that was not secured was put in place. Dangerous walking down stairs. The unit is good otherwise. Kitchen well stocked. View is fabulous. You must like the sound of pounding surf is right there-you get used to it. Plenty of fans so really no issue with no A/C. Floors needed a much better cleaning. Great pool and BBQ setting.

Nice location, beautiful views, nice pool and outdoor spaces. Premises were neat and clean. Could not get TV to connect, although I am not the most technical person. Twin beds were not that comfortable due to small size and hard pillows. But all in all a nice VRBO

Condo was as advertised. 2 bedrooms w/ comfy king beds. Bathrooms small. Living area large enough. Balcony was great but had high surf warnings for all but one day of our stay, so balcony was unuseable. We did see many dolphins and some whales when we were able to be outside. Only complaint was floors were very dirty.We found the floors to be VERY dirty.
