The great room has soaring vaulted, wooden beamed ceilings and ceiling fans in both the living and dining rooms. The lanai has two beautiful teak dining tables and seating for four.

Amenities include:
—a fully-stocked kitchen with new appliances, including a full-size refrigerator and range, microwave, coffee maker and grinder, rice cooker, toaster, and more
—top quality beach chairs, a beach umbrella, mats and coolers
—washer and dryer
—high-speed internet, WiFi and Smart TV's in the living room and bedroom
—swimming pool, fantastic lava rock 'volcano spa' hot tub, decks, and BBQ grills and tables/chairs for outside dining with fantastic ocean views

The condo community is ideally located mid-way between the towns of Kona and Hilo, along the beautiful Punalu'u black sand beach, which is the most expansive and easily accessible black sand beach on the Big Island, famous for its sea turtles, sunbathing, and coastal hikes. Just a short drive away, you will find a variety of sites and activities to explore, including the spectacular and recently reopened Volcanoes National Park, the magnificent Green Sands Beach, Kula Kai Caverns, the Ka'u Coffee Mill & Museum, golf courses, spas and more!

About the host

Host profile image
My husband and I lived in Oahu, Hawaii when my husband was in the Army. We always dreamed of retiring on the Islands but never thought it would be possible, but dreams do come true! We haven't retired yet but this will be our home someday and until then we want to share it with you.

Why they chose this property

We found this complex when visiting the Big Island in 2015. We stayed in a condo like this one and fell in love with the area. We were drawn to this part of the island, a little more laid back. The beach is in walking distance, the pool and hot tub are great and the location was just perfect.

What makes this property unique

Sea Colony is ideally located between Hilo and Kona. We are walking distance to Punaluu Black Sands Beach. We are close to Volcano National Park, Green Sands Beach, South Point, Coffee Farms, and much more. We are a quiet community with the sound of the ocean and birds heard daily. Very relaxing, no need to leave the area either. Walk to the beach, come home to a meal or grill at the pool. Jump in the pool and end the day at the hot tub. Then back to the condo to fall asleep to the sound of the ocean.
