Big Island of Hawaii | A Couples Paradise Vacation

If you’re looking for unique places to visit on the Big Island of Hawaii, especially if you’re traveling as a couple, you’re at the right place. This is our story of our paradise vacation without our children. We decided to visit the Big Island of 

Sea Mountain Resort On The Big Island

Sea Mountain Resort On The Big Island

Sea Mountain Resort on The Big Island of Hawaii is a place where you can unwind from it all. If you’re looking for a quieter secluded resort, this is the place where you want to stay. This would be the perfect place, especially for couples!

On our Big Island of Hawaii | A Couples Paradise Vacation, we stayed half of our time at the Sea Mountain Resort. 

Location

Sea Mountain Resort is located on the southeast side of The Big Island. It is a very short distance from the famous black sand beach named Punalu’u Black Sand Beach. You can literally walk to this beach from your resort.

The Rooms

These really cute bungalow style resort rooms add to the tropical ambiance that they are situated in. The rooms make it seem like you are home away from home. I can’t talk about any other room except ours, however, room #76 had beautiful views of the ocean.

The rooms are comfortable and also include a full kitchen. The full kitchen was very convenient because before you get there you can go shopping and you’ll be all set for your time there. There isn’t air conditioning in the rooms, however, there is no need for it. Just open the windows and the sea breeze will be sufficient.

One thing that is a lifesaver and that we always look for before booking a room anywhere is a washer/dryer. This resort has one in every room! If you look for this, there won’t be any need to overpack. I understand you’re on vacation and don’t want to “work,” but if there are only two of you, you will only need to do two loads top if you’re staying for one week. To me, being simplistic and a minimalist is a priority.

The Grounds

What can I say about the grounds? The old adage “a picture speaks a thousand words” is very true! The photos tell it all! The resort is ocean front and that alone is a major perk! However, I truly enjoyed their hot tub. You can sit in the hot tub and enjoy the scenery. On this day, I was literally the only one at the pool. Talk about seclusion! If you’re a golfer, you will love playing here as it’s cool and beautiful.

Final Note

If you’re looking for a place to stay on The Big Island of Hawaii and don’t want the city life…if you’re looking for authenticity…if you’re looking for seclusion & relaxation….then welcome to Sea Mountain Resort!
