When we arrived we had a basket of fruit and goodies and a note saying the sink is broken. Please don't use the sink or dishwasher. Bummer. We had to be the middleman between the plumber and the management company on when to have him come out. It took two visits, with loud machinery to get it fixed. We arrived Sunday and it took till the end of day Tuesday to get it fixed. No concession. Maybe the fruit basket was the concession?? Who knows. The location was great! Beautiful views. Overall the place was furnished well. New carpet. Tons of beach material (chairs, mats, toys, towels, coolers, boogie boards). We would stay here again. Good Coffee shop on the property too.

Morning coffee watching the dolphins, how relaxing! The fruit tray upon arrival was very nice, the kitchen was equipped with all we needed and everything you need for a day at the beach was available. Nick at Knutson's was very helpful with our arrangements. Hope we are able to use this condo again very soon.

We arrived to a complimentary basket of local fruit. The condo was very clean and well appointed. In face we were very impressed at the size as well as how modern it was with granite and updated appliances. The beds and the pull-out were very comfortable. The most enjoyable part of it all is the view and the ocean breeze and sound flowing through the entire condo. The location is perfect and not far from the town and amenities. We loved the Island and will definitely go back and hope to once again stay here. Thank you to all who helped make our stay comfortable and enjoyable.

The unit is comfortable and very well equipped, and feels more like someone's home than a rental. Small repair and maintenance items were well handled by the management.

Management was great in booking the place & providing a welcome basket with island treats! The location was great, which I knew prior to booking, as I've stayed at several units in the complex before. If noise is a concern, you won't find it here. The kitchen appeared to be newly remodeled & looked great! Unfortunately, the living room furniture was dirty, stained and smelled like urine. The living room carpet was also stained. Hairdryers were provided; but, both were nasty and gummy-feeling. Visible dust was on the standing floor fan, window sills & lampshades and there was scum on the shower doors. The beds were lumpy & uncomfortable. Fortunately, the majority of my time was spent outside of the condo. With new mattresses, new living room furniture & a clean environment it would be as great a place to stay as some of the other units at Sea Village which I've booked in the past. The real shame is the cleaning fee was the most exorbitant I've ever seen on any property I've stayed at on any of the islands & the unit was only one of two in my many years of travel that I've ever felt warranted a complaint. Management appeared to listen closely to my concerns when I notified them after returning home.

We loved the condo!!! beautiful sunsets and listening to the waves from our Lanai were priceless. The condo was fully stocked with beach supplies(coolers boogie boards chairs etc..) The owners had a lot of really good info books on Hawaii. The condo complex is very well kept . For us to walk to Kona took no time at all. 4205 was perfect for our family!!! We will definitely be back!!!

When we walked into this condo for the first time my husband and I both were in awe of the view. Wow! We spent many mornings having breakfast and coffee on the lanai and many evenings watching sunset. You can hear the waves crashing against the rocks and it lulls you to sleep at night. The kitchen was well stocked, although we could have used a frying pan but made due with what was there. We slept in the King/ Master and it was very comfortable. A lot of extras were provided: soap, dishwashing detergent, some laundry detergent (although we brought our own). However, make sure to bring your own shampoo and conditioner. The location of this unit is walking distance to town (about a mile) and we walked every morning to get a little exercise. Note that we had an issue with the screen door locking as the frame was not secured to the door jam. When we called after hours it was taken care of within half an hour. We loved this condo! Five stars!

Hello, we loved staying at the unit 4205. The Lanai had a beautiful ocean view. We woke up everyday to see the torquiose blue water. The spinner dolphins entertained us as we watched them from the lanai. The house was neat and clean. We used the master bed room and its attached bath. We only felt it was little hot at times during nights as the fan wasn't effective enough, but that is something that did not bother us so much. Also, we found that some of the unused appliances like rice cooker and blender were little dirty and we couldn't use it. Besides these 2 minor issues, we had a very good time at the unit. Will definitely rebook this unit and recommend it to friends too.

My family stayed in the unit from 10/3/2016-10/11/2016. My wife was entered in the Ironman World Champs.The unit was clean upon arrival and was everything you could ask for, except maybe air conditioning.The 6 in my family all adults had plenty of room. The view from the balcony was amazing.We had a problem with the shower door in the master bed room, we called and within 1 hour they had someone there to address the only complaint is the shower head in the master bed was installed to low,I am 6ft tall and I kept whacking my head on it.On a scale of 1-5, I give it a 4 ,again no air conditioning. The condo is about a 1 1/2 miles from town, as the say a nice stretch of the legs.I would must definitely recommend this property.

I stayed at 4205 in mid-May with my husband and 18 month old. The view is impressive, you're right on the ocean and have a nice view of town. We saw dolphins almost every morning while having coffee on the lanai. At first I wasn't too impressed with the decor, don't get me wrong, everything is in good condition, just a little dated. The condo was very clean.
Despite the tired decor, the little extras and attentiveness of the property management more than made up for it. The sleeper sofa needed repair and wasn't finished before our arrival. Management called because there was a part behind the couch and they wanted to make sure my son would be safe near it. They offered to have it removed, even gave me their personal cell number. It didn't turn out to be a big deal and we didn't need the sleeper.
The kitchen was well equipped, complete with basic pots & pans, foil, plastic bags, champagne & wine glasses, tupperware, olive oil, basic spices, etc. Anything you would need.
There were plenty of pool/beach toys which my son LOVED, snorkeling gear, beach chairs (for adults and children), beach towels, etc. They even had an infant bath, which is nice because there wasn't a bathtub.
There is no air conditioning, which is typical for older buildings on the island. Since we visited in May, it wasn't a big deal. We were very comfortable.
All in all, we were very happy with the condo and would stay here again. Thanks again to the management for caring about our safety before anything else.
Make sure to visit the Kona Inn restaurant specifically for the mai tai's. Best on the island, not too sweet, delicious, and strong!

Our holiday in Kona was fantastic. Sea Village SV4-205 was exactly as the description advised, in fact even better, it was very clean and spacious and had plenty of room for 6 adults. There was a beautiful basket of fruit and chocolates in the fridge for us when we arrived and we had no problem accessing the property and finding the key. Sea Village is an easy and enjoyable walk to Kona with all its restaurants and shops. I would have no hesitation in recommending this property. Blake from Knutson and Associates was very professional and answered any email I sent very promptly. All in all loved the whole experience and the Big Island is a fantastic place to visit.

Had a wonderful time in Kona. The unit was not fancy from the outside, but was nice and clean inside with some recent updating. The unit was quiet and great location. Sitting on the balcony with the water directly at our feet and the boats floating by was the highlight.

We enjoyed our stay at Sea Village. The basket of fruit in the condo upon our arrival was very nice. Really enjoyed the tropical fruit. I have two recommendations for improvement. I would recommend that the cleaning crew check the refrigerator temperature. The temperature of the fridge was set at 9, the highest, and the first morning, all of our groceries were frozen, even the eggs! And, I would recommend that a property as large as Sea Village, have a maintenance person on site. We came back to the condo one evening at about 5:30pm with take out food from a local restaurant and neither of the keys would open the condo door. (The dinner included ahi poke, raw fish that would spoil if we couldn't get it into the fridge!) I called the after hours number for Sea Village. The person I spoke to said there was no one onsite to help us. Finally a neighbor came to our aid, let us put our food in his fridge, loaned us his WD40, and we were able to get the condo door open.

We enjoyed our stay at Sea Village. The condo was very clean with nicely upgraded in the kitchen and baths. For the age of the unit it has been well maintained and represented good value for the price. Lot of nice beach gear (chairs, snorkel, fins, etc.). A number of restaurants are within a reasonable walking distance (15-20 mins.), which is nice since parking is an issue in Kona. All of the pictures on VRBO accurately represent the unit. We would stay there again on a return visit.

Very nice, loved the sight and sound of the ocean. Loved the Kona area. Should have used the kitchen more and eaten out less. Gave our extra food to a homeless guy as we left town. The bedrooms are at the opposite end, near to the parking lot. Each night there was something going on in the parking lot - a couple and young child packing the car to leave early the next day and the child distressed every time the mom was too far away, so lots of loud voices and car door slamming. Another night someone coming in to an adjoining condo for the first time, late at night. Lock box key only unlocked one lock of two, so phone calls to management asking them to come and get the unit unlocked, traveler "very disappointed" and loud about it. finally I slept on the couch the last night to have peace and quiet. Not sure what could be done about this, but traveler might want to bring ear plugs. Green flash coffee right at entrance to complex. Also travel agent who helped us with some activities right next to green Flash.

Proximity to ocean was wonderful, view was wonderful, kitchen and Lanai were great, but . . .unfortunately, mattresses and living room furniture were not really comfortable. We had three adults in a unit described as capable of accommodating six persons ? ? ? Carpets were stained and needed cleaning . Sea Village location is very good, close to KONA, but the unit was tired !

The vacation rental was as advertised - right on the water, a great view of the sunset. The apartment had all we needed including lots of beach towels and accessories such as cooler bags, beach chairs, mats, and beach umbrellas. The location was nice but not walking distance to anything of interest. All amenities were a short drive away. Beds were comfortable - sofa bed not very comfortable but OK for children or teens. No AC, but it was not necessary at the time we were there (May).

Pros: True oceanfront rental for an average of $159 a night Full kitchen and laundry in your property Kona sunsets Nice shared pool and hot tub GREAT location
Cons: This is our second stay, the first five years ago, and the unit has aged. It needs an upgrade: new carpets (several stains in several places), microwave and washer/dryer. There were, what I assume, brown ants on all the counter tops (kitchen and bathrooms). We left a brownie on the counter and fifteen seconds later there were at least twenty ants on top of it. I called regarding the microwave hood falling (the electrical tape let go that they used to hold it) and they called me back at my home phone 5000+ miles away. I emailed twice about the ability to print our boarding passes somewhere and never heard back.
Overall: Might stay here again but would do my homework beforehand. If the upgrades were done we would strongly consider this unit again. Again, great bang for your buck overall.
