Casa De Emdeko is an older set of condos, but are nicely set off of the main road, Alii Drive. The area is very quiet and peaceful. The landscaping is beautiful and well maintained. The ocean, beach area and saltwater pool are gorgeous. Even though the unit is older and not updated, it's very comfortable with a lovely view and even the bedroom has a nice view.
The cleaning crew walked into our unit at 8 AM on checkout day (checkout was 11 AM).
Very clean unit, great view, good WiFi nice local people on property nice pools and sunset . Steps if you’re not on the ground floor, parking limited inside security gate, water shut offs sometimes on ThursdaysOcean waves heard while you sleep.
We had a great time along the Kona coast using this homey little condo as our homebase. Check in was easy, the property was lovely and the wonderful salt water pool by the ocean meant that even on days we were taking it easy we still had a taste of the beach. We would absolutely stay here again.
The stairs were an issue despite what we were told. I read the reviews about the stairs, before booking and it warned us. However, it was not real clear. The description and the Representative on the phone made it seem like it was minimal and there was an elevator. We were told there were like only 4 stairs. Unfortunately, it was an issue! There are 7 stairs leading from the parking lot to the check in area. Then the 2nd & 3rd floor have multiple landings with 4 steps each. The elevator does not bypass those multiple landings so, you will have steps to navigate. And in some cases, it was actually easier to take the stairwell and take the inclined sidewalk to our car. This may not seem like a big deal for some people. However, carrying luggage, groceries, beach gear or just getting to the car, can be difficult if you have mobility issues. My husband and I did have minor mobility issues and dreaded navigating the steps that were scattered all over the property. We were also right next to a unit that was being renovated so, there was no peace and relaxation. We were disappointed with these two issues. Otherwise, it would have been a nice place to stay.
We really liked the unit. Lots of room and most everything we needed for our week long stay. We loved the views from the lanai , especially during sundown. The unit was not as clean as we would have liked, and we had some issues with bugs in the room. Also of note was that the 2 chairs in the living are could use some cleaning/repair.
Parking was a real pain as there are not enough spaces inside the gates so we often ended up parking outside the secured area.
Both pools were open and were great as were the barbecue grills.
We had a great stay here. Plenty of parking, amazing pools, great private beach area for watching sunsets. This was a really good value as well. Property was quiet and clean. Included all the needed amenities and accessories for a nice stay.
Really enjoyed our stay, nice view on lanai. Very quiet resort.
Minor issues though some might want to know about before they book, water is shut off once a week for maintenace/repairs, ocean waves audible in room all night, must traverse steps at this second floor unit to and from unit to get to/from elevator. For now mobility not an issue for us. First floor units have no steps to worry about but no views because of bushes.
Would stay again and bring ear plugs.
The condo was awesome. They thought of everything. The unit was close enough to hear the ocean at night and watch amazing sunsets from the lanai. You are centrally located to everything in Kona.
Property was very comfortable. Beautiful ocean view and amenities. Only thing we did not like was water shut off for 4 hours.
Would like to speak to someone about buying unit.
