Casa de Emdeko 216
very quiet and peaceful
by Jimmy
4/5
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.
Homey Little Condo
by Justin
5/5
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.

Really Liked the Unit
by Charles
4/5
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.
-------------------------------------
Aloha Charles,
Thank you for sharing your stay with us at Kona Coast Vacations.
We apologize for the cleaning issues you encountered we have scheduled a deep clean and upholstery cleaning for this home.
Mahalo,

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.
Very Relaxing
by Marsha
5/5
It was great and we met some life long friends that owned units at this location.
The unit was in a great place on the property with the scenic view of the pool, ocean and atrium. The unit was very relaxing - we spent a lot of time on the balcony.
The location of the condo was a bit far from downtown but it was still a great place, I did not care for the steps when carrying your luggage to your unit.
Unit Is Wonderful
by Marnie
5/5
This unit is wonderful. I have stayed in it three different times already.
Would stay again
by Richard
4/5
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 maintenance/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. Aloha, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review! We are glad you enjoyed your stay at this property. We do advertise that this complex has frequent water shut offs. We hope to see you again in the future!
The Condo Was Awesome
by Michael
5/5
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.
Really Like this Unit
by Richard
4/5
Really like this unit. Very clean nice furnishings and kitchen , firm King mattress. Nice sunsets from the sea wall (in May sunset happens behind north bldg from lanai so not visible). Nice Ocean views before noon and after sunset when sun not directly on the lanai (it gets hot). Good wifi. Very friendly small group of long term residents. Lots of beach gear: boogie boards, chairs, umbrella, snorkel gear, beach toys.... Things to be aware of. You have to traverse steps to take luggage and groceries up to unit. Ground floor units much better for those who have mobility issues (few have a view though in this complex). You can hear the surf all night as you are close to the water. The bedroom blinds still allow quite a bit of light (property walkway lighting) into the bedroom if you need dark to sleep. Parking inside security fence fills up by 5:00 pm most days. You can park outside the fence as well but just not as secure. Felt pretty safe here and plan to stay again.
Place Is Great!!
by Jordan
5/5
This place is great!! It was so nice to sit out on the beach, and listen to the waves crashing. It was also amazing to be able to cool off in the salt water pool!! The condo was clean, and really nice. The bed was comfy, and there was air conditioning, which was amazing after a hot day of golf. I would definitely stay here again when visiting the Big Island!!
Would stay again
by Richard
4/5
This is a great place for us as we have now issues with going up and down steps. Beautiful place, friendly residents, unit very nice. The resort is over 50 years old now and we lost water for 3 days off and on for repairs. We had to time showers and dishwasher. Security lights are bright at night and illuminate bedroom quite a bit. It would be nice if better light blocking blinds were updated in the bedroom. Would stay again.
Mahalo for taking the time to leave us a review on your stay in Casa de Emdeko 216!
Casa de Emdeko, like many other complexes in Kona, were built between the 70's - 80's. Casa was actually built in 1969! (wow!) So with that comes a lot of unforeseen maintenance issues like the complex water heater dying out. I apologize the repair took so many days to complete. I'll share your report about the outside lights with the site manager, perhaps they could look into a softer yellow lighting rather than LED's.
We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your time here and would be happy to welcome you back in the future!
Mahalo,

Beautiful Property and Location
by Lynn
5/5
Beautiful location and property. It is close to Kailua-Kona (walkable if you wanted) and central to the Big Island.
Amazing Place!
by Daniel
4/5
Everything about this place was amazing! Location, cleanliness, quiet and beautiful. There were just a few issues specific to our stay that made it less than perfect. The salt pool was closed for the first half of our stay. Which is certainly one of the high points of the location. Absolutely loved it once it was open again! There were some water issues, but management properly notified us. Our shower was out during the construction and afterwards we didn’t have any water flow for the rest of the trip. My fiancé ended up cleaning and replacing the shower head himself. Otherwise it was an idyllic stay! Super clean! Remote enough to have privacy but close enough to get to town easily. Would give it 4.8 stars if I could!
Aloha and Mahalo for your feedback. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. We apologize about the shower head. We would have sent someone by so you did not have to replace the shower head yourself. We hope to have you folks back on Island again soon!
Great experience!

Fantastic Property
by Gretchen
5/5
Loved staying at Casa de Emdeko! Beautiful view of the water and sunsets. Fantastic property - beautiful gardens in the courtyard and an amazing salt water pool at the ocean's edge. Quiet location, but easy to get to downtown. We would definitely stay here again!

Nice Place to Stay in Kona!
by Joey
4/5
This is a nice, clean condo with a good location. The salt water pool was a hit with our 13 year old. We had a couple of minor maintenance problems, but the same day we reported them, a worker came out and fixed them promptly! That is good service. The fold out queen couch bed was just ok, but the king bed was very comfortable. We loved that they had beach chairs, coolers, boogie boards, snorkeling gear, etc. available to use!
Will go again in a heartbeat!!
by Gonzalo
5/5
Everything was great from the beginning til the end. Place was clean and well stocked up with everything you could need. Location is wonderful, it was peaceful and excellent communication from the renter. Will go again in a heartbeat!! Thanks
Exactly as described
by John
5/5
The property and unit were exactly as described and perfect for our goals of relaxing and exploring the big island. As a bonus the lockers had a lot of equipment that allowed us to go to beaches and snorkel without having to buy/rent equipment, ice chests, chairs, etc. It is all there! (even sand toys if we had little ones with us). Would recommend highly and definitely return here!
Couldn't be more Perfect!
by Amanda
5/5
We had a fabulous time at Casa De Emdeko! The location couldn't be more perfect, within a few minutes drive of the waterfront area in Kona and a great spot right on the water for epic sunsets! If you enjoy sunset, this complex is for you. Sunsets are an event in Kona, with what seems like everyone setting up for a viewing each night. The pools are fantastic, the common space is beautiful and the neighbors are friendly. The condo, itself is well-equipped and the air conditioner worked well for us. I've seen in other reviews that folks were hot, but we didn't run into the same issue. We appreciated the in-unit laundry and the ability to relax on the lanai or in the living each evening after a full day of exploring the island. We'd absolutely stay in this unit or this complex again. We had an amazing time.
Love the Property and Views
by Richard
5/5
Love the property and views from the terrace. Not good to be on second or 3rd floor units if you can't handle steps to lug luggage. Nice grounds and BBQ area. No beach close but great sunsets. Not a problem for us so we'll be back.
Very Nice Upgrades
by Lana
3/5
This condo had very nice upgrades, the bed was very comfortable. The indoor and outdoor furniture were also comfortable. The downside to this condo is that there wasn't any spices I was fortunate to find salt and pepper, only one roll of toilet paper, one roll of paper towels, no coffee filters or coffee. We have been staying at VRBO's for the last 15-20 years and this is the first one that didn't supply commentary coffee and filters. If you stay here bring all of it. The air conditioning is not a true air conditioner, it is some type of cooling system which does not work very well. The condo was hot the entire time we were there. The swimming pool was closed for the first three days we were there for some type of emergency repair. This condo does not have a washer/dryer so bring laundry detergent, there is a laundry room downstairs.
Nice
by Fred
5/5
Nice accommodations, nice location. My 7 y/o had a blast at the property and the beach/snorkeling spots that were close.
Perfect getaway
by Jason
5/5
This property is the perfect getaway for the couple that wants to have a quiet vacation in Hawaii. It was laid back, not crowded at all. Great views from the patio, refreshing pool for the best sunsets. Understand why some of their guests have stayed 8 times
Had A Lovely Time!
by Kim
4/5
The grounds of the complex was beautifully maintained and we loved the salt water pool! Our condo was very clean and was well stocked with everything you need for a great day at the beach. My only complaint was that a lot of water ended up on the bathroom floor while taking a shower and the bed sheets were worn. It's probably time for a new set. Other than that we had a lovely time.
Well Appointed
by Candy
5/5
This condo was well appointed with everything needed for a great 10 day stay - well equipped kitchen & lots of sand stuff. The property manager was quick to respond to 2 very minor issues & checked in to see if everything was going well. Thanks
Everything We Needed!

Great unit
by Jeff
5/5
Great unit FULLY stocked from the kitchen to the beach toys to laundry to the linens. Close to main strip but far enough away to enjoy the peace and quite. Great bbq area with lots of visiting and the sunsets just can not be beat! Loved the option of salt water pool or fresh water! Will return for our next stay!!
Well Appointed
by Chris
5/5
The unit is clean, well appointed and large, with a view of the ocean from the lanai. Checking in was straightforward. Some of the decor is dated, which could either be a feature or a bug. Location is south of the main activity in Kona. We appreciated this but others might want to be closer to those activities.
A Great Condo!
by Lori
5/5
This is a great condo - clean with everything you need. Plenty of towels, extra pillows and blankets! There is also lots of beach gear available - chairs, umbrellas, multiple sizes of coolers. We didn't use the pools but the grounds are kept very clean and well maintained. Check in and out process was easy. We would definitely stay here again.
