This place is great! The condo has everything I have at home, nothing is missing. A large lanai with a beautiful view is perfect for morning coffee and evening beer. The saltwater pool is absolutely amazing! Great host, very responsive. We only stayed four nights, but I want to come back for a couple of weeks.

The house is nice. The toilet seat in the guest bathroom is about 50 years old and the paint is all chipped. It looks really terrible. They need a few large pans, there is nothing to cook pasta in. The location is great and overall we really enjoyed it. It just needs a little care.

We enjoyed our two-night stay at this oceanfront unit. The location was perfect — being right on the ocean was a major highlight. The saltwater pool was enjoyable, and we appreciated having access to the grill on our first night. The unit was clean, comfortable, and had what we needed for a short stay.There were two minor hiccups during our stay. We didn’t have WiFi the first day; however, the host was very responsive and quick to troubleshoot the next morning, which we appreciated. There was also noticeable foot traffic from the unit upstairs at times.Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would return. Mahalo!

The condo has everything you need, snorkel mask, fins, chairs and mats they are very well stocked . . Only two negatives are the bed is( uncomfortable) and the floors needed a good cleaning . We washed our feet every before we got in bed . Bring food, clothes and sunscreen

The location was fantastic. The condo was clean and the welcome note on the platter on the kitchen bar w/Hawaiian cookies and coffee on it was special. A couple things that needed attention were handled immediately and with kindness and courtesy. It was a great week! We'll likely stay here again in the future if it's available.

Overall a easy check-in process and great location behind a gated community. We enjoyed the community, shared outdoor space and chairs that faced the ocean. The kitchen is stocked with everything you would need as a family, washer/dryer, towels, dish and clothes detergent. Internet could be regularly maintained and/or upgraded for those who rely on connectivity while traveling.

We appreciated staying at the condo, it was clean, very quiet and just steps away from the ocean. We could hear the waves all night long and enjoyed watching the sun set many evenings. The bed was comfortable. Beautiful location would recommend!

The location, pools, grounds and Home were perfect for our needs. Upon arrival, the home needed a little airing out, but everything else was wonderful.Beds were comfortable, barbecues, and patio were inviting and sunsets and wave watching were amazing

We’ve had an oceanfull of delightful experiences.Our condominium unit accomodates both active chef (good appliances and utensils), and comatose vacationer (luxurious showers and comfy beds) after days of action and awe. Groundskeepers move about as quiet as churchmice keeping the greenery under control and flourishing. We love it here

The condo had everything we needed. We used a provided cooler daily, beach chairs and umbrella several times. It's a wonderful location, close to everything on the Kailua Kona coast. The covered pool area pavilion is always cool and breezy. A few things could use an update, but it was clean and comfortable.

We had a fantastic stay. The apartment was perfect for us and had everything we needed. We watched the sunset at the beach every night with other guests and residents. We really appreciated the rolling cooler. We used it everyday to pack our beverages and sandwiches. We will definitely stay here again.

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.

All was great! Bed was a bit hard. One thing just to let you know, the lock wouldn’t lock on the door. It was open when we arrived. We finally figured it out but you may want to check that.

Everything about our stay was very, very nice! We had everything that one could have wanted for our week. It was comfortable, welcoming, plenty of room space, and truly showcased the ‘Aloha Spirit’ of Hawaii. Amenities went above and beyond our needs. Our hosts were phenomenal always right on the spot with communications of any questions we had during our stay. The location was perfect for restaurants and shopping. The view from our lanai was spectacular. We would stay there again and again for any future trips to Hawaii!

The location was great! Loved that the ocean side pool and garden pool were steps from the lanai door. We loved sitting out on the lanai in the mornings drinking coffee and listening to the waves crash on the shore. Only one downfall (not the owners fault) the ceiling/floors are thin and apparently we had a family with either young kids or heavy walkers above us. We were woken up everyday with someone running across the whole floor above us. Otherwise we had a GREAT week

Great location, directly on the oceanfront. The complex is a bit dated, but the unit was remodeled and in decent condition. Beds were very comfortable. Lots of towels and a good amount of beach chairs and toys. The parking situation isn't great. There are 3 or 4 spots directly next to the unit but were never available our entire stay. In fact, we were never able to park inside the gates at any point during our stay. We had to park out in the liquor store parking lot. Not a huge deal, but worth mentioning.Communication was bad. Both the microwave and oven were not working from day 1. We received a text from the management company asking us how our first day was, I responded by informing them the ovens were broken. No response. On the final day of our vacation, they told us they would send somebody over to repair. Obviously too late to help us but hopefully the next guests enjoyed the microwave popcorn we left behind!

We really enjoyed our stay at Ron’s condo at Casa de Emdeko. The condo was clean and had everything we needed for our trip. The complex was lovely with a perfect laid back vibe. The location was centrally located and had easy access to stores, restaurants, beaches, etc. We really enjoyed grilling by the oceanfront most nights and watching the sunset. We are sad to leave but will definitely be back!

Very nice accommodations, really everything you need but a teapot. Beautiful remodel, Lots of everything. Check the supplies before you head to the store. Plenty of nice large towels and lots of beach towels that wrap all around you. I would love a nice screen door so I could see the left side of the water and enjoy the breeze an open door would provide, but we are on the ocean so probably would rust. The only thing I would mention is this unit is on the ocean end and the lanai is amazing and the furniture is super well made and comfy but the way Casa is general is designed, it steps down 4-5 steps with every section of the buildings, so although there is an elevator only the units near the street side are actually wheelchair friendly. I would rent this unit again in a heartbeat! Thanks so much for sharing your lovely home! Also, found the Cart in the master closet as we were checking out! You will want to use that for bringing your initial groceries in.
January 2026
The condo was beautiful and well stocked. The washer/dryer were fantastic for cleaning all our beach towels/clothes. The linens were all high quality and the extra beach towels were appreciated!We loved the "lanai lounge bed" and enjoyed the other outdoor seating as well.This was our 3rd stay at Casa, but this was our favorite unit by far!

This unit is always clean and welcoming. The host provides thorough instructions. Being on ground level is oerfect for us as seniors. A/C works great too. Casa de emdeko needs to work on their entry gates and oedestrian gate to parking lot.

This condo exceeded our expectations. I was initially worried about getting groceries nearby without having to drive, but that turned out to be a non-issue. There’s a deli market just a 2-minute walk from the condo with milk, eggs, cereal, Bisquick pancake mix, maple syrup —everything our kids love for breakfast. There’s also a great coffee shop called Berry Bird about a 5-minute walk southeast toward Ali’s Drive, offering an excellent selection of coffee drinks. Just two more minutes past that is a small farmers market next to Living Stone Church, with a wide variety of fruits, vegetables, freshly baked bread, cinnamon rolls (they sell out fast!), and cookies. Lastly, the condo is actually much closer to the ocean than it appears in the pictures, which was a wonderful surprise.

It's the perfect size for 2-3 people.The room is very clean, and the kitchen is well-equipped, so cooking is no problem at all.There's a pool that feels like it connects to the ocean, and you can see the sea from the room's balcony.The owner responded quickly and was very kind.There's a deli right next door, which is super convenient.This is a place I'd definitely stay again on my next trip to Hawaii Island.

Dryer doesn’t dry well. A/c inadequate. Water sometimes near toilet. Think coming from locked closet. Place was adequate, but not nearly as modern as appeared in pictures. Felt misleading. Suited its purposes. Upstairs neighbors noisy, sounds like moving furniture at 10:30 at night, multiple nights.

2nd Stay & Here to Stay!We just got done staying here again for 8/9 days, and we are always sad to leave. My husband and I joke around that we could buy this unit (it feels like home!) someday — perhaps! We feel very comfortable in this condo. Temperature wise, we were always feeling nice and cool from the hot sun. Everything is updated & simple, the cute décor feels super tropical & relaxing, and the unit is safe & quiet. We love the pools, grills, and other amenities. The fancy shower in this condo is our favorite! Staying here with a toddler is very easy and enjoyable as well. I love that the kitchen is fully stocked with helpful dishes and appliances. We love the closeness to town, and the peek-a-boo view of the ocean from the lanai. Knuston & Associates (property managers) are also very nice about accommodating requests/complaints. Very, very nice place to stay!The only thing I'd like to see in general is assigned parking for Casa De Emdeko guests and residents, but maybe that will happen someday!

This unit is amazing! The wrap around deck and huge living room make it feel extremely spacious. The kitchen had everything we needed and access to the complex and unit was smooth. The waves crashing could be heard all day and night and it was the best view for the sunset! We would absolutely rent this place again :)

Pros: Nice unit, nice grounds and pools. Well stocked, good location. Nice pavilion, with bbqs, for watching sunsets,Cons: No place to load & unload on the left side. Parking spots often taken. Only 2 handicapped spots which seemed to be permanently occupied. Overall, a decent bargain.
