Sea Village is a great place to stay. Wonderful pool and bbq area. Plus is a great location, easy walk into town for restaurants and shopping.

The condo had enough space. However it was not clean. Sticky floor, fridge gull of half used sauces. Cubboard with remains. We left after 4 of the 10 days. The mansger and VRBO hsndled this verh well and money eas regunded in 3 days.

The condo is really nice and comfortable. The bed is super comfortable and the furniture is nice and comfortable, too. The kitchen has three things you need to do your own cooking. Bring or buy your own spices. We loved the washer and dryer being right there in the condo. There is no AC but we only missed it a few times during our two week stay. The fans were great. We discovered booking a condo with AC is at least twice as much as this lovely condo. Restaurants and shopping are close. Kona is full of great places to eat. Note that the condo is on the third floor so being able to do the stairs is a must. Think if it as a bit of a workout everyday, which is good. We liked not having people walking above us which would happen if you are on the first or second floor. This condo is great and the best place price wise that we found.

I can't say enough good things about our stay. The location was perfect, allowing access to everything we wanted to do and see. I liked being back at the condo each evening to view the sunset from the lanai prior to going out to dinner at one of the many local restaurants. The unit was clean and tastefully decorated. I've used VRBO a lot and one of the most important things to me when renting a condo is feeling at home when entering the unit. That's how we felt when entering this one. It wasn't overly decorated with a lot of personal items and tacky knickknacks on the shelves and walls. All in all, it was a great place to spend our 50th anniversary vacation. I would definitely stay in this condo again. (I already miss the malsadas from Paradise Bakery.)

For context, this is my 5th condo stay in the magical state of Hawaii (Maui, Kauai and Hawaii). The idea was initially foreign to me, as I thoroughly enjoyed hotels and resorts through the first 3 decades of vacationing in my adult life. Alas, hotels are cost prohibitive in Hawaii, a fact that was a rude awakening when planning my first trip to Maui years ago. Where dollars and cents are concerned however, adaptation is the rule, so Vrbo it is, and gladly!Now then, it is on or about day 3 when condo life in Hawaii starts to feel like home as your vacation routine takes shape. Here, the hosts have done a fantastic job with the space. It is neither gaudy nor dated. It is an open floor concept with clean, sharp lines and feels like modern day Hawaii should.With all that being said however, the interior of the unit is but the opening act, the view and sounds of the ocean on the balcony is 100% the main attraction. Yes, this is where time stands still, so bring your tired, broken down soul and get recharged near a sea of tranquility, literally. It is serene, it is surreal. It is the epitome of what a Hawaiian vacation should be; paradisal. This unit is a true gem, and if you've read this far, you can end the dizzying search of where to stay on the Big Island and enter your dates and lock this bad boy up right now. Aloha

We had high expectations for our stay at this village and we got lucky! Amazing apartment with an mesmerizing view. We woke up every day to the sounds of the ocean right outside our lanai. Cleanliness was good although there were a bug issue in the kitchen - nothing major though. The property was quiet and nice and parking spaces were big and spacious. Would definitely recommend!!

My husband, daughter and I stayed here for 4 nights at the end of April. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Finding the Sea Village was no problem and parking was plentiful. Check in was simple with keypad entry. The condo was clean and comfortable. The lanai overlooked the water and was very private. We enjoyed sitting out there in the evening listening to the waves. My daughter greatly enjoyed the pool, although I wish there was some shade around the lounge chairs. The condo was well equipped for beach days with chairs, coolers, snorkel equipment, shovels / pails, pool noodles, etc. (but you would need to drive to a beach). I found the beds very comfortable and enjoyed sleeping with the ceiling fan on and windows open. There is a heat pump air conditioner that we used when we first arrived as the unit was a bit warm from being closed up, but didn't use it after. There can be quite a bit of afternoon sun in the main living room area, and there are no window shades (although there is a shade on the lanai that would help), so I expect that during the summer, it could get warm and the air conditioning would come in handy. The location is great. I didn't hear any road noise. You could walk to the main restaurant area, but it would probably take about a half hour. We took some Ubers to go for dinner, which cost under 10 each way, since we heard parking was challenging and expensive. Overall we had a great stay and would stay again if we came back.

The location was perfect! We were able to walk into town and do some shopping and eat at several great restaurants. We were not too far from a beach, so we got to take advantage and swim in the ocean. The view over the water from our lanai was exactly what we were looking for!

We had a great time staying at this condo on the water. There are beach options nearby, and the views of the sunset from the lanai were spectacular. It was an easy walk or ride to town, and there are great food and drink options to choose from. We would definitely stay here again next time we're visiting the island!

Great condo with a view to die for. Every day started and finished with time on the lanai enjoying it. Well stocked kitchen and laundry facility is a bonus. There is everything you need for the beach with towels, chairs, body board, etc. The closest beach with lifeguard is Magic Sands 2 miles away. Property is finished to a high standard. Very responsive host.

This was a perfect home base for my husband and me as we explored the island. Watching the sunset each night and the canoe/boating activities each morning from the lanai was such a pleasure. It was so great to be right on the ocean! I appreciated how well the kitchen was stocked with pots, pans, and dish ware. It was also generously stocked with beach towels and beach chairs, cooler box, etc for our days visiting the nearby beaches. generously

This was a recently rennovated spacious one bedroom. Perfect for me and my son, but could have fit a family of 4. It is clean and parking is easy. A 10 minute walk to town. Water views. A/C. We would rent here again.

Property and condo were fantastic!!! The only downside if you have any physical issues, i.e. i have a meniscus tear in my knee ( just Hesperia prior to vacation) and my husband has a VA disability rating retirement for his back . The 32 steps up to the condo with luggage then groceries was a bit of a challenge. This does not in any way reflect the condo or owners. Condo was beautiful and the hosts are excellent. Also the bed was the most comfortable VRBO bed we have ever had. At other locations we have ended up buying mattress toppers just to be able to sleep. Highly recommend this property / host. Only thing to be aware of is if you have physical issues there are 32 steps, lol.

This property was perfect for our family vacation. The view was incredible. The pool was the perfect way to start and end the evening. The unit itself was in a perfect tucked-back location, away from the pool and bbq area. Very quiet. We will definitely be staying here again.

We enjoyed the location, very basic indoor area, but good patio looking at the ocean. We loved the pool and hot tub. The dish washer was rather rusty on the inside. Have to worry about getting charged extra for using too much AC. They had a bunch of beach toys we enjoyed using! Texted owner to grab something we accidentally left and he was kind and allowed us to swing back by and check!

Things you should know. THERE IS NO ELEVATOR. If you don’t mind carrying heavy luggage, groceries, lawn chairs up the stairs, then you’re good. The TV in the unit is very very small. The size of a computer screen. We like to watch movies in the evenings when we’re on vacation. My husband had to move the screen about 10 feet closer in order for us to even see it.What we loved: The views from the condominium are stunning! The kitchen had everything you would ever need. The air conditioning worked great. We left our sliding glass window open at night and it kept the house really cool clear up until noon the next day. That made a big difference. The resort is beautiful, welcoming, quiet, and has a great inner area for barbecues that families used in the evenings. A very nice environment.This location is close to everything. Our favorite restaurant was. Don’s Mai Tai restaurant at the Royal Kona, which was very nearby. The prime rib was excellent and reasonably priced, and the seafood was excellent as well. We had lobster at Jackie, Ray’s, and that was very good too. Island lava Java is excellent for breakfast and the shrimp eggs Benedict is superb! You will have a wonderful time here!

Enjoyed the stay overall. Unit was well equipped for towels, and consumable supplies. Beds were super comfortable. No AC in the 2nd bedroom.The downside was the unit is a bit tired and made it a bit challenging to cook meals for two people. Details:Ceiling fans in the bedrooms were noisy, Fan in hall bath did not work, Kitchen cabinets were a painted plywood and sticky feeling and showed wear. All the pots and pans were in really bad shape. A real hodgepodge of dishes and some had chips on them. The microwave was very old and did not fully function. Washing machine was very noisy and there were a number of floor tiles in the kitchen and a few in the living room by the patio that were cracked.

Property is totally comfortable and perfect for what we needed. The condo is a bit dated, but it fully provided all of what we needed.

We booked this condo last minute for our teenagers spring break. Could not get over the views as soon as you walk into the condo. Everything was well appointed for our stay and the management company was friendly and on top of all our needs. Loved the layout with the bedrooms in the back. AC was perfect! I am a home chef and the kitchen had everything we needed for a week stay. Most importantly, the complex was quiet and the perfect location for our vacation. Would definitely stay here again! Loved the condo, thank you.

Sliding glass door was hard to see through, lots of long term dust build up on all vents in bathrooms and fans. Spent half a day cleaning out the dust in the portable fans to help cool the bedrooms down. No curtains or shades to block out sun in bedrooms. No ac other than window unit in living area that didn’t reach bedrooms. Online photos are very dated and couch is not the same, faucet in extra bathroom barely fits the sink, hand's barely fit under. It was nice location but wouldn’t stay again.

This is the fifth time my husband and I have stayed at Sea Village, but the first time in condo 3306. This condo was renovated and nicely decorated. However, we did have an issue with a possible rodent that ate half of a banana. We contacted the office and they sent an exterminator over right away, who set some traps. We also had trouble with flies getting in through a broken screen. The exterminator said he would contact the owner and notify them. We did enjoy the grills. We took advantage of the beach towels and the concierge as well. Overall, we loved Kona!

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.

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'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.
