Outstanding rental! Comfortable and clean, nice partial ocean view. Enjoyed both the salt and fresh water pools along with the sandy area along the rocky ocean front. Had an exceptionally well stocked, modern kitchen. Communication with Jackie was a breeze and she kept us well informed of everything that we needed to know. Great place in a nice complex.

Great property and Great host. The place was very clean and has everything you need. It came stocked with toilet paper, paper towels, Dishes, and utensils. Like you are at home! Coffee and coffee maker was a plus. Fridge stocked with ice packs for your daily excursions. Stocked with towels and even laundry detergent. Communication with host Jackie was great. Only bummer was the seaside pool not available due to the large swells and ocean waves spilling into the pool but we cant control mother nature so it was all good. Great place to stay on the big island. I highly recommend this unit.

My place was nice, accurately depicted per the ads. The entire complex is non smoking, so you have to walk to the road. The hot water isn't hot, it's warm-ish ad long as you don't do laundry, otherwise cold. It really is a beautiful place. The place was very clean. The air-conditioning worked. We kept it up during the day, as we do at our home in Louisiana as well. The host was pleasant and more communicative than any that I've stayed at before. My daughter rented in the same complex, their place didn't have AC and their host was horrible!
Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2026
Response from VrboOwner on 27 Jul 2026
I'm a little perplexed as the renters didn't mention anything about not having hot water. It would have been extremely helpful to know so that I could have contacted the manager regarding the water temperature. Normally the hot water is very HOT and almost instant. Will contact HOA to see if there is an issue. Thanks for the feedback.

As advertised! But we knew what to expect as we had stayed at Casa de Emdeko on a prior visit. The condo worked well for 2 people with a well stocked kitchen and a view of the ocean. The pool areas are well kept and clean, not to mention refreshing. And the locker with beach stuff was great, chairs were a big plus for us.
