Just right for a couple. Nice to have a washer/dryer in unit. The lanai was the highlight. Right over the water. Would definitely stay there again

Beautiful property as advertised. Great hospitality and response to a small issue we had. Concierge service after booking was so VERY helpful! A truly wonderful place to stay in Kona. I would recommend this unit in the Sea Village to anyone looking to vacation in Kona. Thank you so much.

Pros: Great views from the condo patio. The property had a lot of good amenities i.e. bbqs, pool, hot tub etc. We noticed that the pool and bbq area were cleaned daily which was great to see. Having a washer/dryer in the unit was a great feature. Cons: There was an AC unit in the living area, which was great, but there was no AC unit in the bedroom which made it uncomfortable at night. It was difficult to find the condo unit. The signage to the unit was not clear which made it difficult to find on the first day. Overall, a great condo!

We had a lovely visit to the Big Island. It was wonderful to enjoy our morning coffee on the lanai where we watched whales, boaters, the surf, and a couple of goats. We also took advantaged of the gorgeous sunsets in the evening. The living room and dining room accommodated the 4 of us. The galley kitchen was tight, but we didn't spend a lot of time cooking. The pool was the perfect temperature in the evening. We would definitely stay here again.

The condo was perfect! It had everything you could need. Great ocean views with incredible sunsets. The condo was very modern and perfectly decorated. The pictures don't do it justice. Complex had great grilling area. Would definitely stay here again.

Our family has stayed at a lot of different rentals on Maui and the big island. This one was okay. Not terrible, but not the best either. My one big complaint was that they had NOTHING extra to use. Most rentals that we've stayed at have had chairs, coolers, boogie boards, pool noodles and not to mention a decently stocked kitchen so you don't have to buy oil, sugar... etc. This rental had none of that. So know, if you stay here, you will either have to buy or rent those incidentals that most other rentals (in my experience) have provided for free. That alone would keep me from renting this place again. I want to be able to go to the beach and have some of the gear without having to go and buy it all when on vacation.

This was the first time we stayed at Sea Village and loved the location. The views off the lanai were spectacular!! Nice pool area and lovely grounds. Great communication with the owner and check-in was a breeze. Can't wait to return!

Michael was very responsive and the condo was I. A convenient location. The best part was the oceanfront view. AC in two rooms was critical though only used in the evening after the heat of the day. Comfortable bed!

April 2024

Family very much enjoyed our stay. Some of the permanent residents at Sea Village were not that friendly. I couldn't imagine living in paradise and taking it for granted. The pool area does have some extremely ridiculous rules.... i.e. no marco polo?..... this would definitely be a great stay for an older couple. No laundry to be used between 9pm-8am which is difficult as we were out exploring the island most of the days. Quite time / pool closes at 9pm and kids were scolded prior to that for playing "loudly" at the pool. All in all we enjoyed our stay. Our family personally wouldn't stay here again. Kona Coast Vacations however were extremely helpful with everything we needed!

The views are worth the stay in its self! The condo is in a great location within 10 minutes of anything in Kona. Condo itself is very clean and quiet. The owners provide everything you need for your stay. I would recommend staying here again.

April 2024

We have stayed in Kona 4 other times and this unit was the best one for comfort and view! Sitting on the Lanai, watching the sun set and listening to the waves every day was the reason why we picked this place. It was fully stocked with toiletries, boogie boards, beach chairs, and snorkel gear for 2, comfortable king bed in the bedroom and had a comfortable pull out couch. I was worried about not having air conditioning but with all the windows open and the fans going the ocean breeze was all you needed. The grounds are well maintained and manangement was just a friendly phone call away. You won’t be disappointed and we will be back! Thank you!

Sea Village 3306 was a great condo and location. The unit had everything we needed for our stay and was clean, comfortable and spacious for our family of 5. The view was wonderful, with the courtyard, pool and ocean all within sight. The property was well maintained and closely located to the shops and restaurants/bars in town. We walked into town more than once and felt safe at night as well. We loved our time in Kona and at Sea Village and would definitely come back again!

April 2024

This stay was actually much nicer than anticipated. The furnishings were a little more updated than what we saw in the pictures. The grounds were lovely - we saw turtles, moongooses - note the sign near one of the pools - there is history there too. The walk to the beach and to town was shorter than we first thought as well. Very accessible. Everything we needed - from laundry soap to beach towels were amply provided. A/C worked well and we loved the patio.

Everything was fine. But that’s pretty much it, just fine. Nothing special. Super small kitchen and bed rooms. No vacuum no broom no plunger, all stuff you would hope a rental would have.

April 2024

The condo was in a great location, not too far from town and an easy launching point. It overlooks the ocean and you can see out to sea and the Kona harbor. The condo is close to the pool but far enough for it not to be a disturbance. The condo is well outfitted and was very comfortable. The only things to really know about is there is only one set of adult fins and two kids fins (we brought our masks so didn't pay attention to how many of each there were)...wish I had brought my fins with me... and there are windows in the unit that provide zero sound dampening but it generally wasn't an issue - very quiet complex, just meant the waves were louder than they otherwise would have been. Overall, highly recommend this condo!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location overlooking the ocean it was so close with great views of the bay and open ocean with cruise ships coming in the odd time. Real close to downtown to walk 1.2 kms for dinner or drinks. Easy access to drive out from to do other site seeing. The ocean surf can be loud but its ocean surf and part of the full experience. The bbq and pool area very well maintained and great place to see the sun while bbqing. The condo itself was well provided for in decor and kitchen ware.

We had a fantastic experience in Kona. The week before check in, the owner called me to give me a rundown of the check-in process. Once we got into the property, check-in was a breeze, and the staff did excellent job taking care of us. We had a fantastic stay in the resort, and will gladly repeat this again. Highly recommend this property. It is noteworthy that this is a condo unit in the Wyndham Kona Hawaiian resort. The actual unit you will be staying at will be assigned at check-in. But all units have the exact same floor plan.

We've been to the Big Island several times, but have never stayed in Kona and never right on the water! Wow. What a spectacular treat! After coming back to the condo daily I felt our beach time continued with the ocean breeze, sound of the waves crashing and the absolute beautiful views! From the lanai we saw whales, dolphins, boats, outriggers and more. Well stocked kitchen and beach gear. Great communication with the owners- easy check in/out. We will definitely be back! Thank you for a lovely place to call ours while we were visiting. Mahalo

Michael's condo was the absolute PERFECT place for our recent stay on the big Island. Everything was exactly as stated, it was clean, comfortable, Michael was incredibly accommodating. We truly could not have asked for a better vacation and Michael's condo was were it all started. With the view (THAT VIEW!) even when we did not feel liek being out and about we would just dit on the lanai and have mother nature entertain us for hours. Michael, Thank you for sharing your condo with us. It truly made our trip incredibly memorable and amazing. I wouldn't hesitate in the least to book this condo again. PERFECT! J & K

Three weeks ago, I decided to book a trip to the BI. This is our fourth trip and usually we go the resort route. I went ahead and checked out VRBO, and somehow this beautiful condo kept coming back over on my search. I read all 91 reviews, was blown away by the exceptional views, openness, CLEAN, colorful decor and location. Everything you see on the profile for this unit is truly accurate. We flew all day from Alaska and found it was easy to find, parking was open, and yes there are stairs, however only second floor. As we opened the door, we knew we were home! Total ocean front and stunning views. Everything was explained and questions were answered with info in the condo and the pre info before arrival. The biggest concern was would I have communication and would I be able to contact anyone. I was exceptionally pleased that this fantastic host was exactly that, prompt, back to us in a timely manner, answers questions, and communication spot on! If you read the fine print you will see there is no AC in this unit. The only concern I had coming from Alaska and well, we melt in the heat. NOT to worry!! This place has open screen lanai with a huge slat window which the breeze flows through to the back of the condo.There fans also. I actually was chilly at times which surprised me. My husband and I were very comfortable and loved the breeze! The no AC was not an issue at all. Actually, we didn't need it! WE LOVED this unit! We hope to come back. Thank you!

This condo was accurate to the description and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location was great and the view from the lanai even better. We spent a lot of time sitting out watching the activity going on at the pool, garden area and ocean. There was an ant issue, which the management took care of immediately upon being contacted. We would recommend this condo and would definitely stay there again!

Wonderful view of the ocean - we saw MANY whales without leaving our lanai Easy walk to town, so lots of places to shop and eat. Sea Village is very social, as you seem to meet someone new every time you grill food. Great place to escape winter.

Have stayed in a dozen different condos on the islands over the years, and this unit in Sea Village was definitely the best. Immaculately clean, lanai right above the shore, parking close to the unit, new furnishings, very well-stocked kitchen, and within walking distance of tourist shops & restaurants. (Parking fees are exorbitant, so really appreciated being able to walk.) We saw whales, dolphins, and goats from the lanai. Would definitely stay here again. Hosts were very gracious.
CAROL E.
March 2024

The condo at Sea Village was very comfortable. The view of the waves crashing were fun to watch, and there is a great view of the sunsets. The bed was comfortable and there was a nice breeze most of the time. It helped if you left both the front door and lanai door open! The place was well supplied with towels, toiletries, cooking utensils and paper towels. We were thrilled there was a wok and a rice cooker! It would be nice if some kitchen consumables were left to be used by others. We did need to buy garlic, cooking oil, and any other condiments along with our main foods. The location is good, but it is a good walk to any beach or snorkel location. Also traffic can build up outside of the entrance, making leaving the property difficult at times.

This condo has everything ! It’s spacious, all completely new & beautiful. It is home away from home with new all Bosch appliances & all the amenities you could want. It’s also very quiet. The TempurPedic bed was wonderful. We stayed here from 3/1-3/15, 2024 & will go back in a heartbeat. The ocean view is gorgeous. Sad to leave the island now as we sit at the airport awaiting our flight.

My wife and I, along with my brother and sister-in-law stayed at this condo and found it to be very well kept up and quite well appointed. The view of the ocean from the balcony was excellent. We were even able to view a whale from the balcony off in the distance. The only flaw that we found was that the clothes washer had mildew around the edge of the rubber ring. Otherwise, it was an excellent stay.

After a snafu when we first arrived, Patrick impressively responded quickly and took care of the issue. The lanai was such a pleasure to hangout on, almost over the water and directly inline with the sunsets, which were spectacular! The kitchen was well stocked and easy to work in. It was wonderful to have beach chairs, boogie boards and several sizes of coolers to use during our stay. We would definitely stay here again!

March 2024

We spent a great month in this condo watching whales and dolphins. We walked to a few restaurants and enjoyed cooking in the fairly well equipped kitchen. There weren't any cleaning supplies and no maid service, and the vacuum cleaner didn't work so for a month that was difficult. There are some noise issues with neighbors coming home and walking around upstairs but not too bad. All told it was a very nice stay.

The ocean sounds insure sound sleeping.The condo was clean but it does show wear. New furniture in the next few years?

We enjoyed the property and feel it was accurate in the description. The only thing that we did not find were pool towels. It did not matter because we had our own pool towels. It was nice to see the ocean and hear the waves each day and evening. Thank you for sharing your place.
Cathy S.
March 2024

This property is as stated. kitchen is well appointed. Right on the ocean. Right next to the pool and hot tub. Hot tub jets not functioning most of the time. Very clean. Walls are paper thin but expected, so windows open for waves difficult to hear over other people noise. close windows, use fans and ear plugs work fine. Found ants in an open box of sugar that somebody apparently didn't realize and left open. But that is typical for the entire island. You are on an island so don't leave open food out on counters or in cupboards! We took garbage out everyday as instructed! Overall an excellent experience here. Highly recommend it

We wanted to leave a review to thank this property owner and help fellow travelers with making a decision on a place to stay. In short, you will not be disappointed. This condo is exactly as advertised from the amenities to the location. First, the condo is well equipped with everything you will need to cook, do laundry, or visit the beach. It’s not in the listing but we found a nice assortment of beach gear including chairs, masks, and beach toys. The two king beds were very comfortable and there is very good air conditioning units in both bedrooms. Between the ceiling fans and A/C we found sleeping to be very uncomfortable after a long day in the sun. The listing pictures cannot impart how beautiful the view is from the lanai. The sitting area is private yet provides panoramic views of the ocean and the town of Kona. We watched everything from flying fish to whales while sipping morning coffee. Also, the pool and spa are just a short walk away to complete the perfect day. Parking was refreshing easy and we never had an issue finding a spot. You will not be disappointed with this quiet hidden gem in Kona. A big thank you to the owners and property management company (Vacasa) for a wonderful vacation in Kona.
