The entry level bedroom has a king bed with adjoining bath. The living room, dining area and kitchen are on the upper level with a comfortable Queen sofa sleeper in the living room. Greet the sunrise with your coffee on the lanai and view whales lazily basking in the warm waters. Spend your days exploring the volcano, South Point, nearby villages and ancient heaus or just relax by the pool or in the hot tub. In the evening you can meet your neighbors while you grill your dinner by the pool. Colony One at Sea Mountain offers all the conveniences and luxury of modern resort living in a timeless rural Hawaiian setting. Ideally situated a five minute walk to legendary Black Sand Beach at Punalu`u and charming Hokuloa Church. Drive just a half hour to Hawaii Volcanoes National Park where you can experience the thrill of watching lava flow to the sea and then return home to enjoy the relaxing, tropical setting. This is a very dramatic area that stirs the imagination and allows glimpses into what ancient Hawaii must have been like. Local style restaurants are just a few minutes away in Na`alehu. The town of Volcano, a 35 minute drive and just outside the park entrance on Old Volcano Road, boasts two highly acclaimed restaurants: Kilauea Lodge (reservations a must) and Thai Thai as well as Lava Rock Cafe. VOLCANO UPDATE!!! The park is open 24 hours a day and it is a once-in-a-lifetime experience to visit the Jaggar Museum observation area and see the red hot glow of lava in the Halemaumau crater. Amazing and awe inspiring. The lava has been rising in the crater since early Oct. 2012 and rangers are on hand until 9:00 PM. HAWAII ID REGISTRATION GE/TA #000-453-0176-01 Keywords: Condominium

REVIEWS:
Kyle - May 2021 - "10/10 recommend!! Wish we had stayed here for a few extra nights. Quiet great location to Southern tip , green sands beach, and volcano national park. Great views and clean!!
Jill - Mar 2021 - This was a great place to stay, with wonderful views from the lanai. We would definitely go back.
Yuliia - Mar 2021 - “The place is actually much better than it looked in the pictures. Everything was super clean and there were a lot of bed sheets and towels provided. The style is very authentic and feels very homey. Location can be challenging, perfect if you wanna be secluded. The black sand beach was 10 min walk from the place and we saw turtles every time we went”
Lisa - Feb 2021 - “Amazing location, truly walking distance to a lovely beach! Beautiful pool, with a great view of the ocean. Beautiful grounds, quaint buildings....just all around fabulous!”
Jay - Feb 2018 - "Loved the condo & the location! I felt at peace there. I highly recommend it!
Mariana - May 2018 - “The condo is actually more then we expected, there were several extra amenities like salt and pepper and oil in the kitchen for cooking which was great so we did not have to buy or bring our own. There was laundry detergent and beach towels for us to use. It was a wonderful, quiet, excluded not close to anything. But we knew that ahead of time so we can plan cording Lee and stop to get groceries before we got to the condo and spend a wonderful week there by the pool! It is also equal distance between Hilo and Kona so that made for some easy day trips.”
Marlena - Dec 2018 - "Loved having a washer/dryer in the unit (with laundry detergent) as well as bathroom toiletries. Loved the view and exploring among the volcanic rocks everyday. Very quiet and peaceful!"
Elizabeth - Jul 2019 - “Great location! Next to black sand beach, but also halfway between South point and national volcanic park.

A place down south
Sufficiently comfortable and central to our hiking adventures. Warm. Thankful for the fans but maybe need about four more. It was lovely sitting on lanai in the evening. Too hot in the direct sun in the morning and the retractable blind cannot be secured and so it just whacks you. We did enjoy our stay and the evening views from the lanai. Thanks!
