I was given the number by VRBO. It is 800 348-9505. I know it can be unnerving in these times, but you can protect you and your family if one of the travelers has a positive test. I have been flexible with past reservations when Hawaii closed and will gladly work with you to insure you have the best memorable time while in Kona.

***PARADISE...PARADISE...PARADISE *** WE JUST LOVE THIS LITTLE GEM AND YOU WILL TOO. This unit B-325, has the perfect location. We are on the third floor for fabulous ocean view and nobody overhead. NO STAIRS needed to get into the unit either. Just park and walk a few steps to the elevator. You can unload your car, (I like to borrow the cart from the laundry room) and just bring everything up to the condo without any stairs.....Please make sure to bring the cart back right away if you do borrow it. :)
Owning a piece of Hawaii has been a dream. We recently purchased this unit and have done updating and remodeling with new paint in all the rooms, new linens, flooring and bought a new king size comfy bed as well as other new furniture and decor. The living room has a flat screen tv, stereo, DVD player and added a new flat screen tv in the bedroom. The well stocked kitchen has a breakfast bar, dishes, beverage glasses, silverware, complete cooking utensils, a tea kettle, lettuce spinner, coffee grinder, blender, toaster,built in microwave, dishwasher, fridge, stove, oven., etc. We try to leave spices and whatever you find in the cupboard, feel free to use.

* There is free wireless internet where you can make free long distance calls to the US and Canada. Air conditioning is included.

We recently remodeled the bathroom with new fixtures, and glass block tiles. There are 2 doors for the bathroom, so if you have someone sleeping on the sleeper sofa in the living, you are able to close off your bedroom door to the bedroom. (Some of the units that are not remodeled, just have one door and everyone would have to come through the master bedroom to use the bathroom) There is a built in hairdryer and some toiletries available, as well as towels, of course and beach towels.
The bedroom's tropical touch is the added bamboo pole that has swagged island linen over the window. There are blinds for privacy. We recently purchased a new comfy king sized bed and all the linens. You can sleep with the windows open and fall asleep to the sound of the waves. There is an iron and ironing board in the bedroom closet.

* There are ceiling fans throughout.

*I love paying attention to every decorator detail to give the condo a very island ambience.

The living room has a a queen size sleeper sofa as well as a comfy chair and ottoman.
You can enjoy the lanai with table and 4 new chairs and cushions with gorgeous view of the ocean. You might spot whales or dolphins while enjoying your cocktails and meals.

The complex boasts 2 beautiful favorite is the ocean side salt pool I love it when the waves splash over the seawall. The grounds are meticulously manicured and have over 40 different varieties of hibiscus. There is a large covered pavilion and 3 large barbecues. Tables and chairs are both under the pavilion and out on the large patio that overlooks some breath taking scenery of both the sand beach, the ocean, and the pool and beautiful flowering trees and Paradise! We love the crossed tiki torches that are lit at night too.

One of the highlights at this complex are the friendly people that are drawn to the seawall every night at sunset where the conch shell is blown as the sunsets in the West.
We also Everyone staying there (owners and guests alike) are so friendly, you will experience a true feeling of Aloha.

*The condo comes with a cooler, beach towels and chairs, boogie boards. You can find them in the storage box on the lanai.

We feel we have one of the best locations, on the third floor (NO ONE OVERHEAD), near the elevator, with incredible ocean views.
It is really a fun place if you like to socialize in the evening or at the pool. But, it can also be a quiet and relaxing place as well. The seawall on the property is wonderful to sit and enjoy the ocean, the boats, cruise ships, dolphins and whales. I could sit there for hours. We enjoy hiking along the lava rocks at the adjoining properties and exploring new places.

We love walking in the morning. We are about a mile South of Kona town, so it is an easy walk where you can enjoy your morning coffee and perhaps walk to the pier where you can catch the trolly back to the condo. The trolley runs about every hour and a half.
If you head North, there are a couple beach access areas that we love to go to. One takes you to what is known as Turtle Beach. It is a small secluded beach with sand and shade....a photographers dream for sure. You have to get to the public beach access and walk across some lava that is behind 2 complexes to get there. This is near Living Stones Church (also recommend)
Another thing I would like to mention is the handy Convenience/Sundries store adjacent to the across the parking lot on Alii Drive. You can purchase your morning newspaper, or evening bottle of wine. The Keauhou Shopping Center is about 3 miles to the South and has a wonderful Saturday market, large KTA Grocery Store, Cinemas, Longs Drugs, Thai Restaurant, Subway, Friday night free hula shows, and so much more.

*We provide our guests with my "Fun to Do," list with lots of tips for your Island fun as well as some unknown to most freebees.

*Tropical Gardens with waterfall and fountain are the water features in addition to the 2 pools. There are lots and lots of tropical flowers, bushes, trees and plants. Our gardeners are amazing, as I have seen them shaking the bushes to get every loose leaf while taking care of grounds. It is so well manicured. Feel free to pick a hibiscus and put it behind your ear. :)
* Oceanfront Cabana for dining or just enjoying the breathtaking scenery. There are 3 large gas grills with extra burner at waters edge. AND wait til you see it at night with all the lit Tiki Torches...Wow! There are lots of tables and chairs. It is perfect to come down and barbeque in the evening and maybe make some new friends. This is a family friendly area where everyone comes out in the evening to barbeque. Or if you choose not to eat here, enjoy your wonderful lanai.
*Breezy open Lobby with fabulous views offer books, magazines and games. There are tables for games, and comfy furniture.
*Hawaiian sunsets. There is a lava wall to sit on and get some amazing photos.
We love to get up early and head down to the seawall with our moring cup of coffee, sometimes even in the dark. It is wonderful to sit on the seawall and watch the sky as the sun lights things up behind you. Just paradise....
*Nearby hiking The neighboring property to the North is wonderful for morning hikes along the ocean's edge. To the South is another complex to walk through too. We love exploring all these areas.

We have such a passion for Hawaii that we love passing that "aloha spirit" onto all who have chosen to stay with us. I will provide you with my "fun to do" list too.
*Pack and Play and High Chair are now in the unit.
CHECKING IN: Once we receive final payment, we will send you the code to the Kaba Lock along with instructions on how to get to the property from the airport. Mahalo and we look forward to having you stay at our condo. I am sure you are going to love it as much as we do.

Comfortable & Relaxing
Too bad it was only 10 days! We were comfortable, into a great easy-going routine, and enjoying our stay, when suddenly, it was time to go home. :( Comfortable bed, easy to work in kitchen, and good view from the lanai. Gail was quick to answer questions we had, and her list of fun things to do was very informative. We would be happy to return to Gail's little piece of paradise!

About the host

Hosted by Gail Eddy

Host profile image
We LOVE Kona. In Dec of 2014 we came to look at unit 325 at Casa de Emdeko. We were very impressed with all this complex has to offer. We hope to someday be able to spend 3-4 months there ourselves. We also own 231615 which is located at Kahalu;u Beach . It is a 2 bedroom unit and is on VRBO. This complex offers additional amenities and experiences unlike our other units, so we wanted to also be an owner here and to be able to enjoy it's wonderful amenities. If you need a bigger place check out our other 2 lovely places in Kona. Hawaii has always been a dream of ours. We feel very blessed to be able to own a little bit of "Paradise."
