We had a lovely stay! The one-bedroom apartment was spacious and clean. The black sand beach was so cool, but the lack of nearby dining options was a bit of a hassle.

stayed for 14 nights at sea mountain and loved it! the studio with a sofa bed was perfect. the fully equipped kitchen made cooking easy. the location is so quiet and peaceful, away from the busy tourist spots. we enjoyed the nice view and nearby black sand beach with sea turtles, just a 10-minute walk away. the staff were super nice and responsive when we had a few issues.

Staying at Sea Mountain exceeded my expectations. The studio with a sofa bed featured a fully equipped kitchen I loved the peaceful location, just a 10-minute walk to the fine black sand beach, where I often spotted sea turtles. A minor issue with ants arose but didn't overshadow my overall enjoyment.

a charming getaway with beautiful park views and nearby black sand beach

I loved my stay here, especially because the nearby Punalu'u Black Sand Beach is just a quick 5-minute drive away, and the quaint Kawa Bay is a beautiful spot for a stroll that's less than 3 km away, perfect for a weekend explorer like me. the one-bedroom apartment I stayed in was cozy, with great amenities that made my trip even better, like a fully equipped kitchen. While the staff were nice and helpful, I wish there were a bit more shade options around the pool for those sunny days.

A secret getaway in paradise

We stumbled upon this charming condo, nestled between Hilo and Kona. Every morning, we enjoyed ocean views and delightful beach walks. The kitchen was perfect for home-cooked meals!

Though the location was idyllic, it felt a bit isolated. The nearest store was quite a drive, so make sure to stock up before arriving.

This place suits me perfectly with great amenities like free parking, a beautiful outdoor pool, and equipped kitchen utensils. The staff even helped me find my lost bracelet on my first stay. I highly recommend this spot for a weekend getaway!

The black sand beach is just a short ten-minute walk away, allowing for easy access to stunning views and sea turtles. The fully equipped kitchen supports meal prep, making it convenient for couples looking to relax and dine in peace.

A significant drawback is the remote location. it can feel isolating with limited dining options nearby. The absence of pool umbrellas is a glaring issue, especially given the relentless sun. The air conditioning setup was also inconvenient, locked with a padlock, impeding any relief on hotter days. Additionally, the sun loungers around the pool are permanently anchored and immobile. Overall, it's a place suited for those well-prepared for a secluded stay.

The studio was well-maintained and had a fully equipped kitchenette, making preparing meals easy. The location was serene and perfect for relaxation, with a beautiful black sand beach just a short walk away. The pool area was enjoyable for kids, and the staff were friendly and responsive. However, the air conditioning only cooled the bedroom, leaving the living area warm. Parking was poorly lit at night, and more grills in the BBQ area would have been helpful.

a charming escape enriched by rustling palm trees, serene ocean waves, and nearby black sand beach accessible by a leisurely stroll

Perfect getaway with beautiful views.

My stay in the one-bedroom apartment was super chill. The views were breathtaking, and the place was really clean. It had a full kitchen, which made cooking a breeze. The lack of A/C wasn’t an issue since the breeze kept things comfy. Plus, there was a washer and dryer in the unit, which was a nice bonus. Just a short walk to the beach, and really quiet overall. Perfect for relaxing!

Loved the beautiful, spacious suite and the relaxing atmosphere! Perfect for unwinding and enjoying nature. A drawback was the lack of A/C in the common areas, so it got a bit warm in the afternoons. 🌴

I loved the spacious, clean one-bedroom apartment with a full kitchen, making it easy to cook. The beautiful views of the ocean and nearby black sand beach were truly refreshing, perfect for a peaceful retreat.

More dining options would improve the experience.
