We had the pleasure of staying in this gorgeous oceanfront condo during our 9-night trip to Kona. My husband and I agreed unanimously that for the price this practically oceanfront condo simply cannot be beat! We enjoyed coffee, tea, meals, and happy hour on the lanai every day. To have the ocean in your "backyard" is truly amazing! The condo itself was very comfortable with every amenity you can possibly think of - guide books, sunscreen, books, DVDs, binoculars, plenty of utensils, coffee cups, travel mugs, blender, pots, pans, etc. We cooked in nearly every day - the kitchen is great, so well supplied! The condo is also equipped with ceiling fans in the living room and bedroom along with a powerful floor fan, which we used every night. The bed is super comfy - you may not want to leave it!

Just a few tips - the bedroom is near the front door with very little opportunity for natural breezes so the fans were an absolute must for us, especially since we're not used to humidity. Also, a staircase leading up to the top floors happens to be situated right outside the bedroom. We learned fairly quickly one evening that folks walking up the stairs can see right into the bedroom (and actually see you in bed) if they cared enough to stare thanks to the angle of the two bedroom windows (which we kept open because it was hot) and mirrored closet doors. This was a little awkward but we never had any issues. Just be prepared to either close the one window at night or keep both windows open and take your chances! Also, each building is equipped with exterior lighting which happens to be situated right near the bedroom windows. The windows don't have any interior blinds or drapes so the bedroom is lit with a soft, orange glow all night. A nighttime eye mask is the perfect solution if you want total darkness - just be prepared to bring one! We had an absolutely wonderful stay here - the condo is a short drive to restaurants and shops along Ali'i Drive to the north. It's a 15 minute drive to Keauhou Bay to the south, which is a meeting spot for Sea Quest and Fairwinds snorkel tours. The grounds were quiet, beautifully landscaped, and well kept. We spent a lot of time at the pool and jacuzzi chatting with fellow guests - it was great! Linda (the owner) was a breeze to work with - so helpful!! We couldn't have asked for a better stay and I do hope we get the pleasure of returning to Sea Village! Mahalo!
