#56 Condo with Ocean Views

What you will love about our vacation home

Our condominium at the Colony One Sea Mountain resort is one of the most serene places on the big island, located close to Punaluʻu Black Sand Beach. The one-bedroom condo has a split level with the lanai, living room, kitchen and laundry nook upstairs. The upper level has a vaulted and beamed ceiling creating a spacious and airy ambiance, and you can hear the surf and view the ocean from the lanai and living room. The kitchen is well-equipped with a refrigerator, oven range, microwave and dishwasher. A pull-out sofa in the living room sleeps two people. Downstairs, there is the entry way, bathroom with a shower, and a king bed in the bedroom, so the unit comfortably sleeps 4 people. A lovely ocean breeze usually blows through the condo, and ceiling fans upstairs and in the bedroom keep the air circulating. The condo is also stocked with some snorkeling gear and boogie boards for your recreational pleasure.

The Colony One complex has an outdoor swimming pool and jacuzzi hot tub with an outdoor shower, along with two gas grills for barbecues, tables and chairs. This pool area has a wonderful ocean view and is lovely for star-gazing on clear nights. The policies of the complex promote relaxation, safety (the complex is kid-friendly), quiet (the pool area is closed by 9 PM) and cleanliness. There are ample parking spaces for cars in the complex and you have the option of catching a ride on the Hele-On buses that stop at Punaluʻu Beach to get to places around the island.

What you will love about our area of paradise on the big island of Hawaiʻi

Our Colony One condo is located in the Kaʻu district on the south side of the big island around 25 miles from South Point, 58 miles from Hilo, 71 miles from Kailua Kona and 30 miles from Volcanoes National Park. The two closest towns are Naʻalehu (8 miles south) and Pahala (6 miles north). Walk to the world-famous Punaluʻu Black Sand Beach (around 10 minutes) and swim/snorkel with the Honu, the Hawaiʻian green sea turtles which are frequently encountered in the bay and or basking on the beach.

There are many major attractions that are shorter drives from the condo: South Point, Papakolea Beach, Volcanoes National Park Kahuku Unit, Kaʻu Coffee Mills, and much more. Papakolea Beach is one of the four natural beaches in the world that encompasses beautiful green sand of olivine crystals. South Point is the most southern point in the United States and is renowned for breathtaking views, cliff jumping thrills and ocean fishing. You can watch whales from several locations around here during their seasonal migrations. The Kahuku section of Volcanoes National Park is 116,000 acres in size with wonderful hiking trails two to three thousand feet above sea level, so it's cooler. In the other direction, Kilauea in the Volcanoes National Park is an amazing attraction because it is one of the most active volcanoes in the world that often spews lava. And there are spectacular views of Mauna Loa, the largest active volcano on Earth, from different locations of the southern part of the big island. The Kaʻu Coffee Mill is famous worldwide for its unique coffee taste. See the farm itself and take a tour of the beautiful uplands of the Ka’u district. The Punaluʻu Bakery Shop located in Naʻalehu features freshly made acclaimed Sweet Bread, which now ships globally and can be sampled and enjoyed in your lunch sandwich while lounging in the well-maintained grounds. There are several farmers markets with a diverse range of local vendors (including lots of yummy ready-to-eat food, fresh fish, fruit and vegetables, and crafts) on different days of the week in Naʻalehu, Ocean View and Volcano. We love the delicious array of island grown fruit, including mangoes, papayas, coconuts, tangerines, grapefruit, avocados, bananas, lychees, rambutans, longans and star fruit.  And the variety of fresh caught, sashimi-grade fish is amazing.

Kaʻu has some of the most isolated and untouched landscapes in all of Hawaiʻi. The swimming water, fresh and salt, is warm and crystal clear, perfect for rejuvenating the body and soul. The island itself is the only place in the world that contains all 7 geographic climates. Explore lush green rainforests and waterfalls, active volcanoes, icy tundras in the winter, and the beautiful relaxing beaches with wonderful swimming and snorkeling/diving throughout the district and island.

Beach towels provided.
