XPath for auto-suggestion list is not working

On https://www.zillow.com I am trying to verify search using auto suggestion box. I have written below code:

public static void verifySearch() {
        try {
            WebElement searchbar = driver.findElement(By.id("search-box-input"));
            searchbar.sendKeys("sea");
            // Thread.sleep(10);
            WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver,30);
            wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfAllElementsLocatedBy(By.xpath("//ul[@role='listbox']/li")));

            List<WebElement> list = driver.findElements(By.xpath("//ul[@role='listbox']//li"));


            System.out.println("Total no of suggestions in search box:::====> " + list.size());

            for (int i = 0; i < list.size(); i++) {

                System.out.println(list.get(i).getText());

                if (list.get(i).getText().contains("Seattle WA")) {
                    /*
                     * JavascriptExecutor js = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;
                     * js.executeScript("arguments[0].click();", list.get(i));
                     */

                    list.get(i).click();

                    break;
                    }
            }

            System.out.println("out");


        } catch (Exception e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            System.out.println(e);
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

Here for auto suggestion list I am using following xpath but it doesn't work at run time:"//ul[@role='listbox']//li" Can anybody guide where I am wrong. Note:on this website autosuggestion is starts to be displayed after 3chars in search field.

Here my friend. Please try to execute the below code. You can now try to fix your issue with this simple solution.

 try {
                WebElement searchbar = driver.findElement(By.id("search-box-input"));

                searchbar.click();
                for( char character : "sea".toCharArray() )
                {
                      searchbar.sendKeys(String.valueOf(character));
                      Thread.sleep(2000);
                }

                List<WebElement> list = driver.findElements(By.xpath("//ul[@role='listbox']//li"));


                System.out.println("Total no of suggestions in search box:::====> " + list.size());

                for (int i = 0; i < list.size(); i++) {

                    System.out.println(list.get(i).getText());

                    if (list.get(i).getText().contains("Seattle WA")) {
                        /*
                         * JavascriptExecutor js = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;
                         * js.executeScript("arguments[0].click();", list.get(i));
                         */

                        list.get(i).click();

                        break;
                        }
                }

                System.out.println("out");


            } catch (Exception e) {
                // TODO Auto-generated catch block
                System.out.println(e);
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
