We had an amazing stay at Casa de Emdeko. It's hard to pick just a few things to highlight. We stayed in Unit 212 with our two young kids (ages 4 and 7). It was the perfect space for us, with all of the amenities we needed inside to be comfortable (air conditioning, great bedding and towels, washer & dryer, well-appointed kitchen, TV and internet), plus an amazing location filled with beautiful landscaping, a well-maintained (man-made) beach perfect for post-breakfast sand play, relaxing and refreshing pools, fresh coffee every morning, and incredible views from the lava-rock sea wall. The location was also perfect, easy to get to every part of the island in a day trip and very easy to get into the heart of Kona, but also far enough to feel peaceful and removed from the hubbub of commercial life! If we have the good fortune to return to the Big Island, I would stay at Casa de Emdeko Unit 212 in a heartbeat!

Location was great, view was excellent, will stay at this place again next time we go to the big island.

From the time we booked through to checkout, communication with the booking management team was excellent. The address is Ali’i Drive, but the complex is set well back and you would never know you were close to a busy road. Check-in was a breeze, the condo is really well-stocked and has ample cooking utensils, cutlery & dishes etc. even for people who don’t want to dine out. The covered patio has a view of the ocean and grounds, the communal barbecue area is well-lit, two pools and the sandy “beach” area immaculately maintained, there are ample outdoor shaded areas to socialize, and there is a very calm/quiet atmosphere about the entire complex. A perfect spot for people seeking a calm oasis, and for families with young children; perhaps not so much for people who vacation in ‘party hardy’ mode! Outstanding property management and communication, as well. The condo is 1.3 miles from the ‘downtown’ area with shops, restaurants, etc.; a trolley service runs along the length of Ali’i would make it quite do-able to stay without a vehicle. and easily get to restaurants and shops. The ONLY drawback for us was that we like to walk everywhere, but the only way to walk to the ‘downtown’ area is on a narrow walking lane marked on the busy road, and that didn’t feel safe to us.

We had a great time here. Everything was just as advertised.

Loved staying at Casa De Emdeko, convenient to downtown Kona and short drive to our favorite beaches and snorkeling spots. The condo was clean and had everything we needed.

Perfect home away from home with all of the necessities.
