RIGHT ON THE WATER in one of Kailua-Kona's most sought after complexes! This open and spacious, 2-bedroom condo has a spectacular, 180-degree, Kona coastline and ocean view. From the private lanai, watch spinner dolphins as you savor your morning Kona coffee. Later, experience a beautiful sunset after a fun day exploring the island or enjoying the beautiful oceanside pool and hot tub. The location is convenient to historic downtown restaurants and shops, and many popular island activities.
This condo is the largest of the Sea Village 2-bedroom floor plans at almost 1000 square feet. Guests enjoy the roomy and open kitchen/dining/living area with ocean views, but especially love watching dolphins, whales (Dec-Mar), and fish just off the lanai. As new owners in 2021, we are continuing to make upgrades. Extensive renovations were just completed, including new flooring, windows, cabinets, countertops, en suite bathroom, and more.
We've ensured the unit is equipped with everything you need to enjoy a wonderful vacation in paradise, including wifi, a well-stocked kitchen, extra toiletries, full-sized washer and dryer, a new 55" television, and beach gear. The no-stairs entry is helpful for transporting luggage or bikes, or for those with mobility concerns.
Bedrooms/Bathrooms:
The master bedroom has a California King mattress and an en suite bathroom that's been upgraded to a tile walk-in shower. The second bedroom has a queen bed and the guest bath with walk-in shower is just steps away. Both bedrooms have ample closets and dressers for storage and are cooled by the breezes and fans.
Grounds:
The grounds of Sea Village are lush and well-maintained. The beautiful pool and hot tub are centrally located and oceanside. Just behind the pool is a large common area with BBQ's area for grilling. There is also a popular, privately-owned coffee, sandwich and smoothie shop on the property.
Other things to note:
No A/C?!
Sea Village condos were constructed without A/C and because of our proximity to the ocean we have not installed an external air conditioning system in our unit. This condo will be warmer than other condos with A/C, and may not be for you if you like a cold environment. But, because it is located right on the ocean, the trade winds usually help to keep the unit very comfortable. We also have ceiling and portable fans in each room. After sunset, the mauka (mountainside) breeze typically develops and helps cool the bedrooms overnight if the windows are open. However, if you are concerned about the heat during warmer months of the summer and early fall, we were recently approved to have a portable A/C unit set-up in the living room (the room that gets all the afternoon sun and heat). Between May 1st and November 1st, if you would like to have the A/C unit set up there will be an additional fee of $20/night (just to cover Hawaii's exhorbitant electricity costs). Please note: the portable A/C unit is only able to cool the common living space (living area and kitchen) during the afternoon/evening and is not to be run overnight as it is not rated to cool the bedrooms. Please request the portable A/C when making your reservation, or at least four days prior to your arrival, otherwise there will be a $50 call-out fee to set it up during your stay.
Travel Insurance:
We STRONGLY recommend "cancel for any reason" travel insurance for our guests. We hope you understand, ...

My husband and I stayed at this condo for four weeks and had a blissful time. Our daughter visited us from Osaka, Japan, for nine days.
The apartment is very tastefully furnished, spacious, and very well organized. Many properties in Sea Village are older. This one is newly renovated and is very clean. The kitchen has everything you need, and everything is new: good quality pots, pans, plates, etc... It does make a difference. The beds are very comfortable, and the bedding is of high quality. (I'll try to find and buy the sheets we had there for myself. They are soft and stylish)
The condo felt like a home away from home.
We spent hours on the lanai, drinking coffee or sipping wine, watching dolphins in the morning (use the binoculars!), and sunsets in the evening.
The location is also fantastic. Kona and all restaurants are within short walking distance, and perfect snorkeling places are a short drive away. Alii Dr. is ideal for morning walks.
Cathy was a great host. Always there for you. There were not too many rules, and everything made perfect sense.
We will be happy to stay at this gorgeous place in the future.

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.

We’ve been staying at the Sea village for 20 plus years and this was one of our favorite ones. The owners recently updated areas very tastefully! We felt very at home and comfortable and truly enjoyed our stay! The owner was flexible and kind with an early check in and late check out which was much appreciated! I would recommend this condo which is very well stocked with everything you need! Very peaceful and loved that there weren’t any stairs for entry .

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.

No trick photography here. Photos are accurate. Right at waters edge. Cleanest VRBO we've ever stayed at. Very well stocked with kitchen supplies, beach gear, extra towels, bedding. Location is great. Definitely a 5 star accommodation.

We had such a wonderful time at this property. We love to cook when we are on vacation and their knives are even sharp. Not a big deal for some people, but it mattered to us! :') We loved the view and the waves. We got to see a whale breach just off the lanai. The place was clean and comfortable for the 4 of us. They were super accommodating to our needs. It is close enough to town that we could go out to eat or snorkeling different places with ease. We easily found parking whenever we went back. We also met other people staying there and everyone was very nice and helpful. Cathy checked in with us regularly during out stay to make sure that everything was as expected and to see if there was anything we needed. It was very sweet. Excellent place for a vacation! My only regret was that we didn't stay longer.

We experienced very high surf for the duration of our stay. Unfortunately we were not able to take advantage of the ocean breezes as the surf was crashing into the building. Otherwise we had a wonderful time while here and enjoyed the property and area. I would recommend this property as a wonderful location and facility.

We spent the week with my elderly mother. The condo has all amenities we needed for a comfortable stay. My mom sat out on the patio every morning and evening to listen to the waves and watch the sunset. The condo is very close to all the restaurants (walking 20 mins and 5 mins drive). Cathy was very responsive through out the process and our stay. We didn’t need the AC and enjoyed listening to the sound of the waves at night. Highly recommend this place.

This condo is RIGHT on the water and we could not have been more pleased with the location and amenities! It was very well stocked with everything we needed and then some. We kept the windows open the entire time and it helped to cool the place as there is no AC. We spent a lot of time on the lanai and just loved watching the water and sunsets - and rain moving in too! The condo is in a prime location as well, close to many of the activities we had planned, as well as just far enough outside of downtown to lend some nice privacy. We truly enjoyed our stay here and recommend this place and the owners!

Great location, great views. Sunsets from the lanai were spectacular. The pool and barbecue area were very nice.
The condo was very well stocked with everything you could possible need. Including beach chairs, towels, boogie board, snorkeling gear and ice chests. The property manager was very helpful with suggestions for restaurants etc.
We would definitely stay hear again.
