1 BEDROOM CONDO IN OCEANFRONT RESORT W/ CENTRAL AC

Relax in Paradise at Casa de Emdeko – Oceanfront Comfort on Alii Drive

Discover the charm of Casa de Emdeko, a well-loved oceanfront property located just minutes from historic Kailua-Kona town. This peaceful resort setting on iconic Alii Drive features convenient elevators, central air conditioning, two sparkling pools (including a saltwater oceanfront pool), and a unique private sandy beach area right on the shoreline—perfect for sunsets and serenity.

This 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom unit comfortably accommodates up to 4 guests with a king-sized bed in the bedroom and a queen sleeper sofa in the living area. Recent upgrades include new kitchenware, a new bed, refreshed countertops, and updated furnishings for a modern yet island-inspired stay.

Step onto your spacious, covered lanai and enjoy views of the lush interior gardens, complete with a tranquil waterfall, vibrant tropical landscaping, and a peek at the ocean beyond. It’s the perfect spot for morning coffee or an evening mai tai.

Whether you're looking for adventure or relaxation, the Big Island offers something for everyone—from black, white, and green sand beaches to Volcanoes National Park, snorkeling and diving excursions, deep-sea fishing, coffee farm tours, horseback riding, and more. In winter, you might even spot humpback whales off the coast; spinner dolphins are year-round residents.

Just a short drive or walk into town brings you to local cafés, oceanfront restaurants with live music, boutique shops, and seasonal festivities along Alii Drive. Several farmers markets offer fresh tropical fruit, flowers, and handcrafted local goods.

For everyday essentials, nearby grocery stores, pharmacies, and retail outlets like Walmart and Target ensure convenience during your stay.

Fair price

The resort has a wonderful patio and sandy area on the sea shore. It’s in a nice location. The condo needs a fresh coat of paint and a new mattress. The A/C Does not have a thermostat but rather four setting so so it’s hard to cap til the temp. The A/C vents were covered with black mold

Casa perfecto

Excellent location, well-appointed kitchen, and comfortable furniture made for a very relaxing stay. The property grounds were meticulously cared for, and the pools on site were fantastic. Will be back in the future.

Nice Quite Clean

The elevator was a nice bonus as my wife has some challenges with stairs. The grandchildren visited us and the last day and enjoyed both the fresh water and sea water pools. The courtyard and water garden were a real pleasure to walk through and view from above.

Great location

Older unit but perfect size for 2 people. Great location close to beaches, shops and restaurants. Grounds keepers keep everything immaculate. We enjoyed the salt water pool right by the ocean. Perfect place to watch the sunsets and listen to the residents sound their conch shells signaling sunset.

Is this really a 5 star accommodation? Nope, but 4 stars wouldn't do it justice and I can't give it partial stars. If you are looking for the type of place where there is a fully stocked kitchen with condiments in the fridge then this is your type of place. There was a closet in the bathroom which was stocked with stuff like snorkel gear, beach towels etc. Also it contained items that were probably left behind by guests but were still usable like bottles of sunscreen, shampoo, shaving cream, laundry detergent etc. So, check it before you head to the store. Doing so would have saved us some money. The kitchen was stocked with pretty much everything you would need. Even a rice cooker. There were several gas grills in the common area down by the seaside salt water pool. There was even a washer and dryer which was a huge convenience. The AC worked but when the fan was set to medium or high it was very loud. When set to low however it was relatively quiet and had no trouble keeping the unit cool. Honestly though we mostly shut it off and left the lanai door open. There were ceiling fans in every room and with the door open you could hear the ocean. So, the AC is there if you want it but you really don't need it. One thing to note is that due to the design of the building. Even with the elevators, this 3rd floor unit is not really wheelchair accessible. There are place where you have to walk up a few (like 3 steps) stairs. We wouldn't hesitate to book this unit again.

Great Place and convenient location

We had a great stay and the property was just as advertised. Beautiful location with easy access to Kona. Beautiful ocean views. There was limited parking behind the locked gate, if we came back late we'd have to park outside the gate, but there was plenty of parking outside the gate. The room had everything we needed. There was even several rubermaid containers that we could put food in and keep in the fridge for the following day. Bed and all furniture was in great condition and very comfortable. We would consider staying here again if we come back to Kona. The location was private and quite.

Ideal location, cute condo

I think I found a little gem if a place in Kona! Just far a few mins south of town, it’s so easier to get in, out and about from the location. The grounds are very well kept and right on the water. Watched the sunset on the sand area every evening of my stay! The building is a little older but in good shape. The unit itself is well equipped with everything you’ll need. I would recommend a quick inventory check for visitors before a grocery haul to avoid double buying condiments, etc. Washer and dryer in unit was a huge plus. When I return I definitely want to remember this spot! Mahalo!

Casa de Emdeko

Love the location of the Casa. Beautiful landscape, two pools, BBQs, small sandy area close to saltwater pool. We have stayed there two different times. Always quiet and peaceful. Each unit has a balcony. We stayed in a 1 bedroom unit both times. And both were close to the elevator. Both units had king beds, a nice size bathroom with double vanity and nice shower. The kitchens were both well equipped and we cooked meals several times. Beds were comfortable. Both units we stayed in were decorated nicely. The living room wicker furniture, in our most recent stay, looked great but was fairly low and difficult to get up but we are in our 70s and this comment is subjective. Love the facility, had quick response anytime we called with a problem usually regarding the televisions. But we would definitely stay there again.

Everything you need.

This Condo is in a great location. You can go into town quickly and walk or drive to beaches. The kitchen was well stocked. There were TONS of towels, including beach towels. They also had shampoo, soap, conditioner, hair dryer, beach chairs, etc…. Having the washer and dryer was a huge help. The location is quiet, the unit has AC and the bed was comfortable. There is a convenience/Liquor store within about 100 feet - very convenient. Appreciated all the small and helpful touches and the welcome note and gift - very nice! Would definitely stay here again.

We have visited Kona many times, and we have been very active in various activities here including Ironman. Our family is an athletic one so this was such a good fit for us with all the running, biking, swimming and other choices here. We chose this condo because we wanted to near the ocean and near town. The stunning view sealed the deal!
