Ocean View Casa De Emdeko

We rented this condo almost a year before arriving.We turned on the A/C to cool things down a little. After while it became too cool but the A/C did not shut down by itself so we had to manually turn the unit off.Only 2 trash bags for a months stay and no laundry soap starter. In the kitchen we flipped the light switch but the kitchen light would not go on, a bad receptacle/switch. We informed the owner about the A/C unit not working properly, she commented that she knew about the problem, but it was too old to be fixed. She said she would send someone over to fix the faulty electrical switch in the kitchen, no one came over to fix the faulty electrical circuitWe informed the owner that we will just have to live with the broken A/C thermostat, during sleeping hours but we had to get up and adjust the temperature to be comfortable, a pain. Not fixing the possible faulty electrical switch is a red flag.The condo itself is ok, the highlight is the balcony, sunsets can be viewed while having dinner or a drink. The bathroom is nice; the kitchen is functional. It was quiet at night despite being so close to Alii Drive, a plus.Checkout instructions need change. The bedding, etc. had to washed and folded before the 10am departure, not sure what the maid has to do.We are disappointed that the owner knew the A/C thermostat was faulty, but it was not included in the listing.Things need to be fixed properly (a/c. light switch) before staying here.

This place had it all. Pool by the ocean, private places to lounge and even a liquor store at the street. The room had everything too. Coolers beach chairs (the good ones) and the kitchen was well equipped. The lanai had a sofa and a place it eat. The pictures should be updated because this place is way nicer in person.

Great stay at Christy's condo! This is a very nice complex- grounds are beautifully kept and the ocean front pool and beach area are so nice, especially for sunset viewing. Sweet lanai view as well and appreciated being on the 3rd floor and away from the pools. Very quiet, we slept well on comfy bed! Everything we needed for cooking at home, good central location for base camp for Kona adventures. Appreciated having cooler bag and beach umbrella to use during our stay! We would easily stay here again if available. Recommend highly!

The building is older but very well maintained. The apartment was vey clean and the kitchen was very well equipped. Close enough to town and other amenities. The 2 pools were great.we enjoyed having a beach umbrella and chairs available.

I had a wonderful stay. This unit upstairs allowed for a morning on the lanai where the sun would rise behind and shine in the ocean in front. Just a quick walk to the front on the condo to the ocean front, salt water pool. Becasue of the unit location it does look over the open air “lobby” Unit was comfortable, nicely stocked kitchen, and the in unit washer and dryer was a plus! Love the Casa and this unit was wonderful.

Loved this condo complex. The unit itself was better than the photos provided.Very spacious for my family of 4. The bathroom was huge. Had tons of towels and pool towels. Plenty of sheets and blankets. Bed was very comfortable but a bit on the small side with luggage. Pull-out couch was comfortable for my kids. TV was a little confusing but we managed. (we didn't need it but my kids did) Large lanai to relax on with a side view of the ocean. Beach chairs and a cooler was provided. Nice to have filtered water from the sink. Kitchen had everything you needed. The garden pool was closed for maintenance but the ocean pool was the one you wanted to swim in anyways! Complex had BBQs but they were very busy at night. Location was nice, a bit farther south from the main area but we didn't mind, do not really like the cruise ship port feel anyways. Would definitely book again.

Our stay here was wonderful! The condo was set up with everything we needed, including lots of extras. The complex was beautiful and quiet. We loved the oceanfront saltwater pool and private beach. The location on the island was perfect for us, close to Costco and other amenities, in addition to allowing us to take a few separate day trips to the northern part of the island, southern part/Volcanoes National Park, and the eastern side/Hilo for more exploring.

Unit was very clean and well appointed: great bed, large bathroom, all the kitchen amenities as well as great pots and pans. The host also provided great beach chairs and beach towels! The air conditioner was very efficient, as were the washer and dyer and dishwasher. We loved the grounds and especially the sea pool, the 'beach' and BBQ's and eating area. The grounds were beautiful. We were there for the month of January and would definitely stay here again, with hesitation.

It was a well equipped condo. It had everything you need for beach days. It was clean. The pools were enjoyable. Would stay here again and would definitely recommend it as well

Well equipped apartment in a beautiful tropical setting. All equipment that you might ever want at the beach is supplied. Protected parking. Everybody is quiet and respectful of others. Gas grills on the property. Beautiful sunsets on the shore. Excellent wi-fi connection in every room. Apartment has washer and dryer.

Well maintained unit and grounds. Enjoyed our stay - would repeat.

The reason we chose this unit was for the washer and dryer so we could pack less! We never got the dryer to work, the garbage disposal didn’t work, and mildew around the bottom of shower floor! The construction under our unit was a little annoying but other than that it was nice.

We enjoyed being close to the water. The high surf for most of our stay made the ocean beautiful to look at. Nice sunsets! The condo is well appointed and Christy was quick to respond to our queries. It's nice to have an end unit where no one walks past your bedroom.

Great condo with fantastic amenities. Very comfortable bed. Great location. Highly recommend.

We enjoyed the comfort of feeling at home, the amenities were great that were offered, the ones that weren't there were quickly and easily replaced. The instructions and helpful tips were all very useful and easy to understand.

Perfect place to stay for our honeymoon. A condo close to the beach, with a very quiet beach lanai and pool. Close to down town Kona for a quick Uber trip or drive. Very easy and secure parking for the rental car. Condo was exactly as described and everything went great!

To far away from downtown KONA

The condo is very well set up, lots of kitchen equipment, nice comfortable bed The only issue with the stay was the property HOA controls the water/ hot water and they had repairs that needed done, causing us to be without water a couple times for a few hours- Regardless of that would definitely stay here again!

I really like around property. But some times doesn’t work well air conditioning.

Good location & owner was helpful, except we never got the gate #. The gate was open by in & out guests

Very well stocked.

The property was in a great location with great ammenities.
