The best place to stay on Ali'i Drive

I had an amazing 2 week stay. I have been coming to the Big Island for many years and this was my favorite stay. The unit was super clean and set up. The pool area was beautiful and the sunsets breathtaking. I am looking forward to returning next year.

Friendly spot

A very nice condo with lots of supplies and equipment to make a perfect vacation. The landscaping is gorgeous with an endless shower of fragrant plumeria blossoms. Staff keep the grounds immaculate. Best of all is the friendly community of the resort with the lovely tradition of watching the sunset each evening, including the blowing of the conch shell, while enjoying the gorgeous oceanfront view. Can’t be nicer! And the hosts are near enough to take care of any problems. Great place!

Wonderful property

We loved this condo!! Cathie was wonderful. She was so fast in answering our questions and was a very gracious host. The condo was great and had everything we needed, plus some extra things we didn’t expect (beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, snorkeling gear, cooler). We felt very safe and welcome. We loved the location! It was close to our 2 favorite outings: Night snorkeling with the manta rays and hiking to the Captain Cook Monument and snorkeling there. We will definitely stay there again!

Great place in a nice complex.

The condo was clean and had literally ALL the essentials. The bed was comfortable and the complex was quiet. The only heads up is there really is not an ocean view from the condo or the lanai. However, you are steps away from a beautiful salt water pool that is on the edge of the ocean. We will stay here again.

The location of this place was the best! We loved hearing the ocean at night through the windows. The unit was homey and comfortable. It was also stocked with everything you could possibly every need to be able to cook, personal items, and even items for going on excursions! We also enjoyed having 2 pools and hearing the birds everyday. The only thing was it was hard to get parking at night if you were out late and would need to park outside the gate.

A Wonderful Find!

I was initially looking at major Kona hotels for our stay, thinking they would be a 'safer / more convenient' choice than a Vrbo. Then Casa de Emdeko showed up in my search. I just knew at the time I booked it I had made the right decision - our stay confirmed it. We could not be more happy with the condo itself (private, quiet, comfortable) and Cathie's hospitality made us feel welcome. We'll be back!

Great condo

This unit exceded our expectations for a condo in Hawaii. The unit was well-equiped with quality linens, kitchen tools and utensils (pots, pans, bowls,etc.)..perfect for those who like to cook while on vacation.The pantry was well-stocked when we arrived. Barbecue area is a friendly gathering place while cooking and sipping on a cocktail. The bed is very comfortable. Owners respond quickly to all calls and take pride in their unit. We will return soon.

Well equipped Well located

This ground floor oceanfront condo at Casa De Emdeko just south of Kailua is an excellent choice for a couple. It offers a very comfortable king bedroom, bathroom with double sinks. The kitchen and living room are small but provide everything you need. Would have liked a dining table but there is a table and chairs on the lanai. There is a fresh water pool and another salt water pool along the shore wall. The condo is a bit worn but is about to be remodeled. The owner was great to work with. Overall an excellent value.

Perfect Condo

Casa de Emdeko is a smaller condo complex with beautiful grounds and 2 swimming pools....one salt water right at ocean edge and the other fresh water. There is a sandy beach area with lounge chairs and palm trees to relax, read a book, watch for dolphins or do whatever your heart desires. Cathie was great with communication...even sending us a note to make sure everything was okay. Her condo is close to the bbq area and cabana....just steps away and has everything described. The condo itself is well equipped and has everything you need for your stay. Every detail has been thought of and there was nothing that we felt was missing. You can listen to the ocean while laying on the comfortable bed with nice quality sheets! The condo is nicely decorated with lots of beautiful art/pictures and very well maintained. We have stayed at the Casa a number of times and this is one of our favourite units....can hardly wait to go back! Thank you for everything, it was wonderful.

Excellent Kona Condo

We stayed in the condo for 5 weeks January through the beginning of February and loved every minute of it. The condo is in a very convenient location- far enough away from the main part of town to be quiet, but just a short drive or easy walk into town. It is a very nice size for 2 people. The bed was extremely comfy, the kitchen well stocked,pleasantly decorated and everything was clean. It was so convenient to have the washer/drier in the suite, and we found the printer to be equally useful since we had some family matters to deal with while we were away. Thanks so much for having the printer there! There was a handy little cooler which we used to take to the beach, and lots of extra beach towels, beach chairs etc. The condo is on the ground floor, which is handy for suitcases, groceries and getting back and forth to the pools and barbecue area. We also enjoyed the small sandy beach area, complete with palm trees, sunsets and whale watching. The condo manager was easy to deal with and friendly as were the owners. At night, if you open the bedroom windows, you can hear the surf, which is a very pleasant addition! As mentioned by others, it is on the south side so the lanai stays shady in the afternoon and the condo doesn't heat up. We also found having the lock box on the door very convenient as we didn't have to remember to take a house key! There were many other Canadians there while we were there so it was nice to touch base with others from home while we were away. This is our 3rd time to Kona, but first time in this condo, but we will not hesitate to return there again!

Fabulous, Fabulous!

The host has outfitted the place perfectly, even leaving quality snorkeling equipment in multiple sizes. The bed was totally comfortable; I even ordered the same sheets when I got home because they were so rich. The surf was extra high while I was there, so the salt pool was closed, alas. I look forward to trying it the next time. Nevertheless I swam in the fresh water pool daily, sat by the waves crashing on the rocks where the small "beach" meets the rocks and watched daily, and I slept with windows open to hear the pounding surf. The condo is far enough from the hustle/bustle of the tourist business district, yet convenient for everything you might want. I'll be back. Mahalo. Mahalo mucho.

Great Condo

We had a wonderful stay in this condo. It is well stocked with everything you need for a comfortable stay in the condo and for sightseeing and hitting the beaches. We definitely appreciated being able to access beach chairs, umbrella and boogie boards! The complex is well maintained - the lounge chairs on the sand, pools and cabana area are excellent places to relax. We ate out every night and many restaurants are a short drive away with amazing food and views. However- cooking in the condo would be a breeze and the barbecues were in great shape. People seemed to enjoy grilling with the great view right out front. Everyone we met was friendly and we were very comfortable everywhere we went. Thanks for sharing your place with us - we would stay there again in a heartbeat and we had a great trip to the big island.

About the host

Hosted by Cathie Becker

Host profile image
Picture of us in Kona on our wedding day (Summer Solstice, 2013). I purchased the property with a friend in 2002 but now John (JP) and I have full ownership. We are both retired and over two years ago we moved to the Big Island (from Corvallis, Oregon and Lake Tahoe,, CA) We love living in Hawaii where we spend most of our time bicycling, paddling, swimming, golfing, snorkeling, exploring out-of-the-way snorkeling spots and preparing fabulous meals for our friends.

Why they chose this property

Location, location, location! Beauty, serenity, ease in meeting new friends.

What makes this property unique

I love our private beach. There's nothing like getting up early and sitting on the sea wall with a cup of coffee and binoculars..watching for the whales and dolphins. Of course, in the evening it's the same thing, to watch the sunset, only it's with a Mai Tai.
