We stayed at Sea Mountain only one night and we thought it was a very beautiful place. The GPS can't find the address but I don't usually rely on GPS to get around and it wasn't that hard to find since I knew it was on Ninole Loop Road. Watch for Punalu Black Sand Beach sign. There is a sign... More

Take a beautiful spot, black sand beach, wonderful ocean views, Hawaii weather, great rooms, and then give almost no service and it becomes one of the Vacations International resorts not up to standards. Begin with the lack of signs saying clearly Sea Mountain. The explanation was that they renamed it something colony. Well, all of the brochures say Sea Mountain.... More

we stayed here in December for 18 days,great place,great views,great staff and atmosphere for an out of the way spot,turtles were amazing.A hidden Gem.The only drawback is having to drive everywhere as u are 21/2 hours from kona and hilo.Much easier drive to hiol than kONA.No restaurants around either so stock up.

As I write this I am sitting on the deck of unit #12 enjoying the evening air, looking over the pool and watching the last stragglers on the golf course...oh and yes. I have an excellent Hawaiian micro brew on the go as well! :-) We have been here 4 days now and we have nothing but good things to... More

We found this location to be a hidden gem. Yes, it's remote & there's not really any restaurants in the area, but with a little planning we found it to offer everything necessary for a great 2 week vacation. Our unit overlooked the swimming pool, golf course & ocean with a great view. We were less than 1/2 mile from... More

You are half way between Kona and Hilo, so don't be adverse to driving. But this beautiful location is so relatively close to the Volcano National Park, you won't miss the "big city". The accommodations were excellent and the staff was extremely friendly. You'll have all the amenities (stove, oven, microwave, full fridge, dishwasher, upper loft, lower bedroom, washer/dryer, nice... More

Sea Mountain resort is a mix of corporate and individual private unit ownership. Your experience with the various units will vary in part due to ownership. We have a Vacation Internationale membership and used two of their units during this visit. Both units were well maintained and outfitted with good and clean linens, etc. Kitchen equipment was adequate, however aside... More

My husband and I stayed here on our honeymoon. I did extensive research and I was not disappointed by our final decision to stay here. It is a fairly remote location, which was exactly what we wanted. Our condo was spotless and had everything we needed. The staff was friendly and helpful. We didn't want to leave!

We stayed two nights here and it not the Four Seasons, but I knew that when I booked the place. I saw a couple of negative reviews with comments like "no grocery stores" and "long way from anywhere," and "No AC." Good grief people, do you have any planning skills or just travel around like clueless bumpkins? Look at the... More
