Property is great. Good view of the ocean. Close to touristic areas. Only downside is no AC and it can get pretty warm. They do provide multiple fans so that’s good.

A very nice unit with a gorgeous view within a mile of town. You can tell that the owner takes very good care of the condo. The layout is nice and the furnishings are well maintained. The grounds are well maintained with grills, picnic tables, and a pool. The owner left a lot of instructions about the condo and property along with a lot of information about the Big Island and activities. The owner also responded to questions promptly. The one downfall was the bedroom never cooled off, even with all the fans running. Mahalo to the hosts.

Everything was great! We were already very familiar with the Sea Village property as we have a family place in building 3. Because of the wedding, we had a lot of family and friends in town and most of them rented other units as well. This unit was very nice, with many upgrades, and an exceptional ocean view. Thank you!!

We adored the decor. The beds were very comfortable. The updated bathrooms were nice with good water pressure. The waterfront lanai was our favorite spot! Well appointed kitchen. Good and plentiful towels. Well kept property with friendly people. Maybe a mile from town, which is walkable for most. The town closes down pretty early anyway and we were always out exploring too late to get down there. Holly was great!

My family and I enjoyed our stay here very much! The condo complex was quiet and never felt too crowded. The common areas, grills, and pool were all kept clean and tidy. We were outside of the "busy" area close to central Kona, but not far at all. We saw lots of people walking into town while there or using rental bikes from the station just down the block. Our unit itself was well equipped and comfortable. We enjoyed eating meals and just hanging out on the lanai, which was mostly shaded from the sun thanks to the northern direction, and the unit was stocked with a cooler, beach chairs, umbrellas, and other beach accessories that made going out for the day easy. I only had to contact the owner once when I was having difficultly with the lock box upon arrival. I figured out the issue but he immediately called me back, so I can only imagine if I needed anything else he would have been available quickly to assist. Overall our stay was great and we'd certainly stay there again.

We really enjoyed our stay in Kona Hawaii - Sea Village, the space was great a very convenient for our family of four with two bedrooms, comfortable beds and storage, two baths and spacious living/kitchen area. We had all our needs covered including a wonderful view to the ocean from the lanai!. We appreciated the clean and minimalist atmosphere of the space - my wife loves mermaids and was happy seeing the theme through out the apartment, nice touch!. And the place has all the accessories for a fun family vacation, from coolers, beach chairs and umbrella, buggy boards, snorkels etc., which was such a convenient set of extra amenities, would be good to list them in the VRBO site. We thank you Whitney and Cullien for opening your home to us, we will definitely look forward to be back to Sea Village when we visit the Big Island again. Mahalo!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Our condo was the perfect size for the 4 of us. The view was amazing. Waking up and sitting on the lanai with a cup of coffee and the ocean right there was breathtaking. The grounds were beautiful with community BBQ’s to cook on was very nice. We had dinner outside 2 nights. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. Communication with the property manager was very easy. Responses were very quick.

Loved the stay at this condo. It had all we needed and it was within walking distance of restaurants and things to do. It could get hot at times in the evening without AC but it was bearable.

This is a great place to stay!! You can’t beat the views, property was clean, and close to anything you need. The extra beach gear was awesome to have, and the kitchen is well equipped. We cooked in 4 of the nights we stayed here. We would definitely stay here again!

The family (2 adults, 2 teens) thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sea Village! To start, the location is superb! The sound of the waves crashing right outside of the family rooms was everything! The condo is filled with everything a family needs for a fun and adventurous vacation on the Big Island. The kitchen is stocked with cookware, spices, serverwear, utensils, foil/parchment, and plastic zipper bags for simple meals, coffee, and more! Most rental condos only carry basic small appliances, this condo had everything, even a blender for your tropical drinks. The washer/dryer came in super handy during our stay. The host provided plenty of dishwasher pods and detergent for our usage. The closest in the master bedroom is filled with chairs, boogie gourds, and other goodies for a day at the beach. There are also three mini coolers for your convenience. The condo is spacious and comfortable and a perfect place for our family vacation. Thank you for your hospitality!

Overall for the amount of time we were there it was ok. The jaccuzi was not working. We did not have a key to the pool. There were some minor hiccups, but the views and location made up for it.

Everything was top notch: the condo was well appointed, the beds were very comfortable, the AC worked perfectly, the water heater kept up with all 4 of us, and the lanai was awesome. The property was beautifully maintained and parking was convenient. The location was about 1 minute south of downtown, just far enough away to be walkable yet quiet at night. We absolutely loved our stay!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is our 3rd time staying at Sea Village, and really we have no reason to stay anywhere else. We will be back for sure. Condo had everything we needed, and the hosts were easy to get a hold of, and were great with communication. Only thing I would recommend is an upgrade to the air conditioning in the unit. The back bedrooms were quite warm throughout the day and night.

We stayed at this propeety for only a few nights to visit family in Kona. It was perfect for what we needed. The views were so special and relaxing. We lazed around with the sounds of the waves. The pool was great for my 12 year old and the location was fun for the entire family with shops and restaurants so close. We fished off the rocks and caught a few reef fish. All around a very special time. We hope to come back soon!

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location, the grounds were very nice, but when we arrived the temp in the condo was 85 degrees, there are only 2 floor A/C units in the condo, and they struggled to pull the temp down very fast, and they have a TIMER on them to shut off, this made our first night very uncomfortable temp wise. My son moved to the couch just to have some relief but still barely slept. We opened up the sofa bed the next night and it was broken . Overall the condo needs a good update on the inside. Would not stay there again and would not recommend, there are better places.

We spent a week in Kona with family, we rented several condos in Sea Village and it worked out very well for us. Our condo had all of the items we needed for the week plus some! Many left behind beach chairs, hats, boards were so useful while we were here. I loved the lanai overlooking the ocean. Great place!!

Loved this unit. Kitchen remodel is beautiful with great appliances. Washer and dryer are full size and refrigerator had filtered water and ice. Beds and pillows were also very comfortable. Unit did not have ac which was an oversight on my part but ended up not being too bad as weather cooperated.

On the island for 11 days and this is our first time staying at this property. We have been to the big Island about 20 times. The ocean view is fantastic and the small A/C units make life so much better. Overall the place was great with just a few short comings. Depending on who is staying upstairs it can be quite loud in the condo and the stairway can get a bit loud as well. The location is great and the Lanai makes it all worth it. The kitchen wasn't 100% clean on arrival with dirty dishes in the dishwasher, but the bedroom and bathroom were great. We would stay here again.

Family of two parents & one teen son. This place was perfect. We had everything we needed, including beach gear, a cooler, and snorkel masks to have fun around the island. When we didn’t want to pay to park, it was easy enough to walk down Ali’i Dr to the main shopping/dining center of town. Convenient location to the airport as well and you cannot beat the view from the lanai! The hosts have thought of everything and then some at this property.

It is a short drive to many beaches and town shops. It’s a long walk to these places. Right on the ocean. The sound of waves was great and the sunsets were perfect on the lanai.

What a gem! I can’t say enough great things about this property. Checking in was a breeze as well as all the information we needed for the rental. All information was well detailed! The place was fully stocked and very clean. Beds were great and so was the AC. Close to everything with a stellar view! Highly recommend and hope we get to return someday 🌺

My daughters and I stayed for 6 days and enjoyed everything about this property. The condo was beautifully decorated and had everything we needed to make our stay remarkable. The owners were extremely gracious and helpful about providing ideas and sites to see around the island. They also communicated timely and made our stay extremely welcoming. This condo has a beautiful view, fully stocked kitchen, beach accessories, AC and extremely comfortable beds! I can’t say enough good things about our stay and are so looking forward to returning one day!

My hubby and I arrived for a 9 night stay to celebrate our 5 year anniversary. Communication and check in process with the owners was super easy and the condo was clean and well equipped when we arrived. Our favorite part was the view from the lanai of course and the sea breeze always flowing through the unit. Overall the complex is pretty quiet but the bedroom is on the hallway/stair side, so there can be some noise outside your bedroom, but people seem to respect quiet time for the most part (I think 9-7? But don’t quote me). Overall just grateful to have had a wonderful time and enjoy many beautiful sunsets!

On vacation and was hoping for a stress free stay and that was what we had. Accommodations were clean, well stocked and ready for us to use. Comfortable beds and kitchen was well stocked for cooking our meals. Beach towels and chairs were very useful. Pool and BBQ’s were used often and made the meals enjoyable. Spent many hours on the lanai enjoying the views of the ocean and sunsets. This property fit the bill for our week long stay.

We had the most wonderful stay at Sea Villages! Our room was perfect. The view was amazing and everything was up to date and clean. It had everything we needed, we didn’t need to buy anything once we got there. We were nervous that the room would be hot but it had a nice breeze and we never felt uncomfortable. It was perfect location and the pool was great. We will definitely be staying here again!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed here 5 nights after a 3 night stay in the Kona Village right next door. This place has a larger pool area, bbqs and picnic tables in a communal area in the middle with sunset views. You can also see the sunset from the balcony in the room! We received a small gift bag with some coffee and travel essentials in the room. Management was attentive and we even got locked out one evening and someone arrived within 20 mins to let us back in for a charge. It's pretty near downtown Kona, but not walking distance. The condo is quite large with 2 different air conditioning units that was nice for our stay because it was pretty warm. Great room with a lot of nice amenities in the room. Make sure you look in all the drawers because we found the guide book that I purchased in one of the drawers at the end of our stay!

We had a really great time at this property! The space was large, the view was beautiful, and there was easy access to the parking lot and pool. We had a rental car, but without one it is likely a BIT too far from the actual town to stay if you were planning on mainly walking anywhere. There were a few hiccups (1) since there is no AC we had to have all of the windows open, while this actually kept the place relatively cool and was not a problem we realized VERY quickly that, even when talking at a normal volume, people could hear every word we said from the parking lot; (2) on the same vein, since both bedrooms faced the parking lot, we could hear everything in the parking lot which could be disruptive for light sleepers (there was construction going on during our stay that was quite loud); (3) this may be an isolated incident, but the morning of check out the water was turned off, which was obviously not ideal. Overall, the place was pretty much exactly as expected and made a great home for 8 days! I could definitely see us returning!

Very nice condo in a large complex approx 1 mile from downtown Kona. Very easy parking and keyless entry.excellent view of the ocean and sunset from the Lanai. Very well stocked kitchen with included washer and dryer. Portable AC in LR was a plus but did not cool the bedroom much. However there were many fans that helped with sleeping. TV access was difficult despite following the direction. Overall an excellent stay. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay again

The condo was in a great location for restaurants and shopping and the view from the balcony is wonderful! There’s a split unit in the main living area and in the master bedroom, but there is no air condition unit in the second bedroom. The place was clean and stocked with everything we needed although there was not enough room to store your luggage anywhere. We did not use the drawers but needed luggage racks and so it was challenging to make that work for four people with four sets of luggage. I visited with my two adult sisters and sister-in-law and we absolutely loved the sunsets and view from the balcony the most. Pictures were accurate👍

Overall we loves the condo and location. There were a few issues such as the dishwasher leaked and the air conditioner didn't work but overall we enjoyed ourselves. The location was nice and central to town and the unit was close to the pool which was wonderful. We enjoyed the community grills and went to the onsite coffee shop once. The unit was nicely equipped with beach accessories such as coolers, umbrellas, snorkel gear, beach chairs and a boogie board.

This unit has spectacular sunset viewing. Being on the top floor, overlooking the Pacific Ocean was wonderful. We loved eating on the lanai watching the surfers and boats each day. The grounds and pool were immaculately kept. This condo is amply supplied with everything we needed, including, beach towels, toys and skorkeling equipment. We chose to sleep on the livingroom pull-out sofa bed to experience the cool ocean breezes each night. This sofa bed was very comfortable. We loved our stay and would highly recommend staying here.
