Thank you for such a lovely stay in this property. We got an email on arrival day with codes for the gate and condo. The condo was fresh and clean when we arrived, and had cleaning essentials under the sink which was handy.
The two bedrooms were perfect for us as a family, my initial concern was that the second bedroom was right next to the front door but once we realised we could lock the gate and the door, I felt much safer. Having two bathrooms was also useful too. The lanai was great and felt private with the trees growing around it. I enjoyed the day bed too for reading.
The site was really quiet and we were often the only ones in the pools when we went down. The communal areas were great for when you needed to chill and the bbq area looked great for bigger groups.
We found the location good with shops, beaches and Kona town all within a short drive. We also drove over to Hilo one day too. You can also head to the beach area to watch the sunset which was lovely.
The property is well equipped with everything you'd need, even snorkels and boards for the beach if you wanted. The only thing that would have been useful is a vacuum (especially with small kids and sand from the beach!!) but we managed with the sweeping brush.
This property was exactly as described and great value, we were very impressed. Thank you.

Excellent stay in Casa de Emdeko, would’ve loved to stay longer. The salt water pool, sunset views, nice bbq area and terrace are a treat.The appartment was perfect for us as a couple and my daughter. Thank you for your hospitality and efficiency team Knutson.

We completely enjoyed our apartment. Convenient without being in the center of touristy stuff. Well appointed, spacious. It was sad the saltwater pool was being repaired, that would have been a great experience. But at least the freshwater pool was there.

The property is beautiful and kept clean. Right in the heart of all the Kona action. The pool overlooking the ocean was our favorite thing. Spacious condo with everything you will need to have a great time

Great location, situated a 5 min drive from basically everything in downtown Kona (though not walking distance to anything). Property management was outstanding and very responsive. We had a few minor issues upon check in and Blake was very quick to address them. Appreciated the extra beach towels and chairs! Only negative is that the property is quite old and showing its age; lots of little wear and tear but no major issues. Also, the second bedroom isn't totally private; it has a wood and plastic sliding door rather than a proper bedroom door, almost like they turned a very very large closet into a bedroom. Probably not an issue for families, but it was a little awkward with two adult couples. Overall I definitely wouldn't have any problem staying here again!

This rental was very nice and I was completely satisfied. I was excited when I discovered there was a stack-able washer and dryer in the unit!! It was very easy to access and the condo was very clean. Plenty of towels, dishes, etc. Amazing view from the balcony. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

We found a little piece of heaven in this secluded but not remote property right on Ali'i Drive in Kailua-Kona! This property was the perfect place to unwind after a week long case that overwhelmed me. I was able to refocus myself in an atmosphere that was so peaceful...thank you for your wonderful hospitality & beautiful condo.

Condo was clean & spacious (2 bedrooms). The grounds were beautiful & it had 2 pools that were never crowded. I love this hidden gem!
