Colony I at Sea Mountain in Pahala

Wonderful location. Very peaceful, great view, walking distance to black sand beach. Somewhat remote, gas and food are 15 minutes away, groceries are 30 minutes away. Kitchen is large and well equipped. Furnishings have a cool tropical look, but could be a little more comfortable. Mattress was amazing!

We had a wonderful time at Colony I. We enjoyed the unit, all the amenities that were included, and particularly enjoyed the black sand beach within a 10 minute walk. Great value for the price!

Overall we had a nice stay. The kitchen was well stocked with essentials, if we had realized how remote the location was and brought more food with us, it would have been even better. The washer and dryer in unit were key for a family to do a quick load. The balcony was great to have for fresh air (many hotel rooms are stuffy and only have AC pumping stale air in) but the Murphy bed did not work well for us (took away couch) and we had baby roaches crawling around.

1 bedroom unit is well worth the extra money. Nice view with plenty of room. Dining table inside and a table on the deck made hosting 8 people for dinner easy.

This was a beautiful place to stay and only a few minutes away from the Black Sand Beach and that is why we wanted to stay here. It was very comfortable except for the fact that there is no Central Air Condition which I thought was so strange for such a large complex! When we arrived it was VERY hot inside, especially in the bathroom. After a long hot day it would have been nice to walk into a cool room. They did have ceiling fans that helped & a floor fan by the sliding glass door. Also, there was a portable A/C unit in the bedroom (not a window unit). But it took a long time to cool off the whole place. I don’t usually sweat a lot but I did that night! Im glad we were only spending 1 night. But it was very clean with a comfortable bed. Beautiful grounds! We thought that we would be able to walk to the beach in front of the resort but were told that we would have to drive. So we checked out early & drove to the beach!

Great place to stay! Not a lot to do in the area, but a great stop not too far from the green sand beach. Condo was very clean and comfortable. Kids loved the pool.

Overall a good place to stay. It's pretty far away from any type of city but it works well if you plan to visit the near by black sand Beach and Valcano national park. The grounds themselves are well maintained and the condo was multilevel with a kitchen and porch which was really nice. It appears that this was part of a golf resort but the golf course is no longer in use. A little eerie driving by an abandoned golf course. And if you keep driving down the road you get to the black sand Beach that also looks like it was once a bigger deal. Everything is overgrown and there are abandoned buildings. But I actually found that pretty interesting. Cons: No real way to close the windows so what little road traffic there was sounded like it was in our bedroom. AC unit sounded like a plane and wouldn't shut off when it reached set temp. The place doesn't have central AC just a floor unit in the bedroom. Cockroach in the bathroom as we were packing to leave. Sorta killed the mood.

Great place to relax near black sand beach. Shame dining options are a bit far away
