LOVED the sound of ocean waves creating a peaceful, relaxing atmosphere and the balcony overlooking the bay. The unit and grounds were well-maintained. Totally enjoyed our stay!!

The view is even more beautiful than photos can describe! The place was very clean, bed was comfy, and there was everything you could think of provided. The only small complaint I have at all is that it got very warm at times, and it was hard to be comfortable knowing we might be charged for extra electricity. Overall one of the best places I’ve stayed in my extensive Hawaiian islands travels!!!

Location is great, view was great. Condo dated and not very clean. Worst of all COCKROACHES everywhere. Went to Walmart and bought traps and sprays. Completely ruined the trip for my daughter and couldn’t get comfortable knowing cockroaches could be crawling on you.

My partner and I enjoyed this property. We only stayed three nights, but it was close to a lot of great things.
The pool was decent, and the grounds were great. The view was the best part of the entire thing. It was so nice to have a deck to overlook the ocean.
The only cons were the kids who kept knocking on our front door, and yelling hello. I don’t know what that was about. A couple of the ceiling fans weren’t working properly. The bed wasn’t in great condition. Also, the unit could use some pest abatement.
If we were in the area again, we would consider staying here. I don’t think I would spend a long vacation on this property, however.

The view and property was very nice. Convenient location close to downtown. The cleaning of unit was less than adequate. The bed sheets were obviously not changed (slept in), ceiling fans had heavy accumulation of dust and a large (dead) cockroach in living room. I suggest hiring a new cleaning company.

Beautiful grounds and wonderful restaurants and beaches walking distance. Town was about a mile walk one way. There are no beach chairs or ice chest in this unit. We brought our own snorkeling gear. The back door slider does need some serious attention very difficult to open and shut and does not completely latch.

My companion and I thoroughly enjoyed the property. Having AC was great but we didn't need to use it after 1st night, just opened up the glass shutters and it was amazing listening to the ocean waves below. Amazing view from the lanai as well. Super friendly guests at the pool/hot tub. Would recommend and stay at this property again!

This was a great place to stay. We arrived to an uncleaned condo, but Wayne was on it right away, and the cleaning crew arrived promptly, doing a lovely job. There are a few things that could use some maintenance, but overall it was a great stay. We very much enjoyed sitting on the lanai right over the water. It's also very close to the shops and restaurants, so very convenient.
Wayne is a great host, and very accommodating to any of our needs/requests.

We loved our stay in this perfectly located, oceanfront property! The property complex was welcoming and quiet. Sitting on the balcony listening to the waves was one of our favorite things to do. We saw dolphins and whales daily. The King bed in the bedroom was very comfortable and the kitchen was very well stocked. The furniture is a bit outdated in the living room but the recliner chairs were comfortable to sit in. Overall, a very positive experience and we hope to be back soon!!!

The house is lovely and nicely outfitted. The deck is the best feature of all - comfy furniture and hammock right on the water. Nice neighborhood with small park one block over perfect for walking our small dog.
Owners were very responsive when contacted.

Our stay was beyond our expectations. The unit was fantastic, literally right on the ocean, which was important to us for this trip. We ate meals there and loved the crashing waves on the rocks below. We did not expect the wonderful atmosphere of other guests and owners who gather in the central area to bbq and chat, and eat under the stars with sturdy picnic tables and torchlight. The swim pool and hot tub were also wonderful. The unit itself is clean and bright and had everything that we needed. The bed and pillows were extremely comfortable, even the pull out sofa was a hit with the family. We had plenty of clean towels and extra linens and blankets. We hope to stay again sometime in the future.

Loved the view and location. Nicely organized condo and very well equipped. Has not had much updating but everything works and is functional. Only negative for us is that it is a wooden building so if the people above are heavy footed you will hear it. Fold out couch bed is adequate but the mattress couldn’t be described as luxurious. Loved all the beach equipment it came with.

This is a fantastic condo in a great location. The sound of crashing ocean waves and views of sunsets on the lanai and in the living room. Peace and quiet in the bedroom. 15 min walk into town. Great pool / bbq area.
I would stay again for sure.

We love doing our rentals through Kona Vacation rentals. We also love the location of the unit and it is very clean BUT the furniture is old and dirty/worn out. The lanai sliding door/screen is in need of replacement as well.

This may be as close to the water as you can get. You are practically over the water when on the lanai. The condo was comfortable, clean, and quiet. Both AC units worked well, although we found we didn't need the one in the main room in the evening. Just open the slider and enjoy the sound of the waves. The location of the condo on the property is fantastic, close to parking and grills, but still quiet. The property itself is conveniently located and easy to get to restaurants, beaches, shopping. I would definitely stay here again.

Got to see 1 turtle, a huge pod of dolphins, many yellow tangs and other reef fish right from lanai.

The condo is in a great location! You feel like you are on top of the water, you basically are! Each morning we watched colorful tropical fish swimming along the rocky shoreline below. The place was very well stocked with everything we needed. It was also very clean. The King size bed was very comfortable as well.

You can’t beat this location, right on the water, close to beaches, food and downtown Kona. The property was well kept and staff was super friendly, informative and welcoming. Condo was clean, spacious. We will definitely stay here again. :)

This property was just perfect for us! The oceanfront unit we stayed in was very well appointed, clean, and had everything we needed. We truly enjoyed eating our breakfasts out on the lanai overlooking the ocean, and sitting out there every evening watching the sunset and the surfers! The pool and jacuzzi were a welcome place to relax after a fun day of hikes and beaches!

The view from the lanai was incredible, and the sound of the waves throughout the condo was incredibly relaxing. The location was close to downtown Kona and gave us a good starting point for other sites on the south end of the island. My husband and I had an amazing stay and would definitely recommend this condo for others.

Very nice, reasonably furnished & equipped, and fairly priced 1-bedroom oceanfront condo. Pool, hot tub, gas grilles all available. Longish walk downtown. AC in living room and bedroom are effective, but noisy - but that masks talkative guests and kids on stairs and landing immediately outside the bedroom. Lanai is lovely, especially in the morning. Only a poor too soft mattress in serious need of replacement keeps me from giving it 5-stars across the board. If you have any back issues be aware. If that were resolved, we would highly recommend this unit.

Coming back to the Big Island, we would 100% look for this rental again. We stayed here the end of Feb into March. Description and photos of property are accurate. You cannot get closer to the water! We saw whales and dolphins right from the lanai. We brought binoculars and could see them up close. The air-conditioned bed room is a must for my husband but did not need to use the one in living room with a nice breeze and wanted to hear the ocean. The lanai is an amazing spot for dinner and sunset.

As other people have written, the location of this property is outstanding! It is a second floor unit with the lanai practically on the ocean! I can't tell you how wonderful it was for someone from the frozen north of the US to experience eight days of the sights and sounds of the ocean just outiside their living room.
The description of the property was extremely accurate. It was clean in good condition. We've done a few Vrbo rentals and this one was equipped the best of any we've experienced (kitchen basics, towels, linens, etc_) The swimming pool, hot tub, and gas grills were located very near this unit and we used them a number of days.
We would definitely love to stay here again if we are in the area!

I grew up spending my summers at Sea Village and to get to come back here 25 years later was just amazing. The unit has been kept up and all the appliances work great. Toiletries, dishwasher, washer and dryer all were stocked. The unit has 2 portable AC units which came in handy when sleeping. Just an amazing place. I will definitely come back and stay here again!
