#41 Turtle Hut at Punalu'u Black Sand Beach * Most 5 Star Ratings

Now you've found your perfect vacation spot...Formerly known as “The Turtle Hut,” his beautiful one-bedroom light and airy unit is located in the more secluded and peaceful section of Sea Mountain Resort at Punalu'u Black Sand Beach. Stay on your private lanai and enjoy the ocean views and sunrises. Or, take a short walk to the world famous Black Sand Beach, where the protected green sea turtles can be seen in their natural habitat. A few steps further leads you along the ancient Ala Kahakai Trail fronting our resort and beyond, to discover petroglyphs and heiaus dating back to pre-contact times along the rugged coastline, all without ever having to get in your car!  When you do venture out with your vehicle, we are ideally located between Kailua-Kona and Hilo, making day trips to either side of the island's attractions easy, and dining in the two local communities of Naalehu or Pahala a breeze. We're also only a short half hour drive to Volcanoes National Park and its awesome eruption shows. A short drive takes you to Papakolea, our incredible GREEN Sands Beach, or tour nearby Kula Kai Caverns in Ocean View, South Point, and Wood Valley. 

The unit itself features a comfy king bed, a pull-out sofa with a queen-sized quality mattress, a spacious bathroom with shower and a well-stocked kitchen. It is also equipped with beach chairs and towels, umbrella, aqua socks and quality snorkel sets. We have earned more FIVE STAR ratings than any other listing in our resort, or our district!

Enjoy our outstanding LOCATION, fantastic AMENITIES and surprising affordability for a top-rated resort in paradise! There’s also high-speed internet and Wi-Fi, and unlimited on-demand TV programming. If you want to experience a more authentic Hawaii, while still enjoying modern amenities and the comforts of home, this is your spot.

Serene...peaceful...secluded...oasis...historic...natural.... are apt descriptors for this wonderful “Home Away from Home,” that many of our guests return to year after year!

May 2021 - Amanda - "This place was perfect for our family. The ocean view and yard were perfect for adults and kids to enjoy! Bird watching out the back was spectacular. The kitchen is well equipped and we made all of our meals. We bought food in Kona and brought it with. The nearby black sands beach was dreamy! The kids played and snorkeled with sea turtles, eels, and rainbow colored fish...the sea was a little rough, so the kids wore life vests and dad was nearby. Julie was very responsive and had excellent communication. The pool and bbq area are nice. During the pandemic, you must reserve a time to go to the common areas. This was nice because the common areas were never crowded. Also, we were always able to reserve the time we wanted without a problem. All in all, it is a very quiet and relaxing place to stay. We really loved it!"
