Aloha from NYC! We will always remember our little Sea Village condo stay, our relaxing last leg of our honeymoon. From the moment we started to work with Jennifer, she was extremely responsive and helpful. Their home became our home for four nights this past September, 2011 and it was truly a slice of paradise. We are so happy to have done the condo rather than a hotel or resort. We had privacy, ample parking, and not to mention an amazing view! Upon arriving we explored the property which includes awesome gas grills for some barbecuing at sunset. The pool and spa were beachside and never packed or full of tourists. It felt like we were at home and the other guests/owners were always friendly and non-intrusive. Location of the unit is perfect. Steps from the pool, yet with probably the best view of the ocean and nearby historic Kona. Going into the unit, we were impressed with the granite countertops and stainless steel/black appliances. Numerous times we would buy fresh fish, vegetables and fruits from the nearby daily farmers market and enjoy our kitchen and have our meals on our wonderful private lanai (patio). Seriously made me think of retiring there we love it so much! Jennifer thought of everything to stock the unit. We were so excited to see they provide professional grade binoculars (which were the envy of other tourists at the volcano!). They also have a great audio system with soothing Hawaiian guitar music which made our cooking dates extra special :) The place is stocked with all you need. From wine glasses, rice cooker, Hawaiian themed plates and mugs, soap, paper towels, detergent, coolers, beach gear, beach towels, I could go on and on! We did go to cost-co to replace a few items we used up out of respect for the owner and the next guests. Happy to do it since we had a full stock of supplies! There were only two of us so the two bedroom, two bath was huge amount of space, especially coming from New York. God willing we will bring our kids here on day! Mahalo Jennifer and family for letting us into your Kona home for a few days. And to potential renters, no need to look elsewhere, I guarantee you will love it! Sincerely, Happy Honeymooners (J&B)
