Here at Sea Mountain Resort you will find yourself in a secluded and peaceful oasis surrounded by nature. This is unspoiled Hawaii, far from the highrises and crowds of Waikiki. It’s the only resort on this side of the island, and the closest resort to Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, the #1 tourist attraction on the Big Island. It’s also the closest resort to both the island’s most popular black sand beach and it`s only green sand beach, and a short drive from countless other attractions and activities, including ancient Hawaiian historical sites, lava caves, and coffee plantation tours. The famous Punalu’u Bake Shop is just 10 minutes away in the quaint town of Na’alehu, offering sweet bread, malasadas (Portuguese donuts) and other goodies. In town you will also find several local restaurants and coffee shops, as well as a park with a playground, and a farmer’s market each Wednesday and Saturday. A short walk from the resort brings you to Punalu’u Beach with it’s gorgeous black sand, palm trees, water lily-filled pond, daily visits from Hawaiian sea turtles, and a lifeguard on duty. Here you can play in the waves, take a swim or snorkel with the tropical fish and turtles, or relax in a beach chair or hammock strung between two palm trees, napping or reading a good book. Everything you need for a fun-filled day at the beach is included in your condo rental: beach chairs, towels, umbrellas, hammock, snorkel gear and ice chest/coolers. (Guest Access) The entire unit with private entrance. Keys will be provided for both the front door and the lanai door. (Some important things to note) Sea Mountain is in a remote location, about 1 hour 45 minutes from the Kona airport and 1 hour 10 minutes from the Hilo airport. A car is a must as public transportation is very limited. You will want to stock up on groceries in Kona or Hilo before you head to the resort as there is very little available nearby. Pahala, about 10 minutes away heading towards Hilo, has a gas station, a small market and a small Long’s Drugs. This is also where the Ka’u Coffee Mill is located, with coffee tasting, gift shop and free tours. Na’alehu, also 10 minutes away but headed towards Kailua-Kona, has a few restaurants and coffee shops along with the Punalu’u Bake Shop and gift store. The nearest grocery stores are in the funky community of Ocean View, about 30 minutes away, but selection is limited and prices are high. There are also a handful of restaurants, a coffee shop, and other businesses here. More restaurants can be found in Volcano Village, which is also about a 30 minute drive. Be prepared to drive if you’re planning to go out. There is no air conditioning or heat in the unit as the temperatures year-round normally stay between 65-85 degrees. There are windows and doors with screens throughout the unit allowing for great air-flow, and there are fans provided. If you get chilly there are extra blankets available. You can sit inside of an air-conditioned space anywhere, but one of the best things about being at Sea Mountain is keeping all the doors and windows open to feel the warm tropical tradewinds! Heaven! There are two clean laundry areas equipped with newer appliances that make doing your laundry quick and easy. You can install the PayRange app and not have to worry about quarters, and the app will also notify you when the cycle ends, so you can relax at the pool or on the lanai while you wait! Washing and drying each take about 30 minutes per load. No worries about doing your laundry in the condo and adding all that heat and humidity! You can also do much bigger loads and finish faster than you can with the small stackable washer/dryer units. The golf course and tennis courts are currently closed but are under new ownership. There are golf courses located nearby in Volcano Village and Discovery Harbor.
Most guests rent vehicles at either Hilo or Kailua-Kona airports. Free parking on-site. The County of Hawaii has a public bus system with schedules, routes and fares available on the County Website.

Condo was great for where I needed to be for work. It was super quiet and the hot tub looks out over the ocean. The condo was well equipped with everything I needed.

Beautiful setting! The quiet and isolation is exactly what I needed. Absolutely recommend!!
Great location to Volcano Park. Unit had everything you needed. Kitchen fully equipped. No restaurants so you will be cooking. Pool and hot tub nice. Very quiet for the most part and can however units are pretty close andncan be noisy
I appreciated being away from the bustle of some of the more populated areas. I recommend showing up with food to prepare, as I did, because stores and restaurants are a bit of a drive. The property is beautiful.

The grounds are beautiful. No one helped with checkin couldn’t find #71. Didn’t know where to park. There wasn’t as much airflow as described. Really stuffy/hot sweating. The bed was hard, the couch really needs to be replaced. The loungers at the pool were chained together one facing the pool, one facing the other way. Couldn’t move any more than a couple inches. Very strange. There really is nothing around the area. The condo was clean and kitchen stocked.
We had a great time at Punalu’u. Close to Volcanoes National Park. Walked to Black Sand Beach easily. The rental provided a few beach towels, chairs, floaties, and cooler. The place was clean and nice. It was slightly small for 4 of us but we only stayed a few days and weren’t inside much. The sofa bed was a bit better than it looks. Probably not for adults but worked for two kids! Kitchen was well equipped, we could make what we needed. It was truly a beautiful “condo” complex, well maintained. There’s laundry on site if needed via an app to pay.
We would stay there again! My big recommendation is if you are sensitive to light while sleeping, bring an eye mask. The complex has many outdoor lights on all night and the usual LED lights on all appliances, TVs in the unit.
I do recommend this place!
Chose this location because we wanted to be close to Volcanoes National Park and have beach and pool access. This was the best vacation we’ve ever had. Loved seeing the turtles every day at Punalu’u beach. Kilauea started erupting our first morning so we made several visits to the park, even before sunrise to get the best view of the lava lake. Relatively short drives to Hilo for a helicopter tour of the volcanoes and hiking to Papakolea beach. The pool and hot tub were a great way to end our days, using the grill and chatting with others about their days. The pool is locked at 9:00 pm so there were never any worries about noise.
This condo was everything our family of 3 needed and more. Everything was easy to find. Well stocked, conveniently close to the pool with a view of the ocean from the lanai. The unit was clean and extremely comfortable. Comfy bed and pillows. Fans were perfectly positioned and kept us cool every night. Loved this place. Loved our vacation.
