About this property
Keokis Kona Oceanfront Rental
If your dream of Kona is coffee at sunrise, waves in stereo, and sunsets so close they warm your cheeks—this is the place. Keoki’s Kona Casa sits right up front at Casa de Emdeko on Aliʻi Drive, with an L-shaped lanai essentially hovering above the oceanfront saltwater pool. It’s the rare spot where you can watch spinner dolphins in the morning, count whales in season, and be in the heart of Kona by afternoon. The condo itself was remodeled down to the studs—everything inside is fresh, thoughtful, and built for easy island living.
What makes it special
Closest-to-the-ocean setting: The lanai is mere steps from the oceanfront saltwater pool—no other unit sits this uniquely on the edge of the action. You’re front-row for sunsets and trade winds, without sacrificing privacy.
Fully rebuilt interiors: A complete, to-the-studs renovation delivers a custom kitchen, sleek baths, quality furnishings, and smart layout—zero “dated condo” vibes.
Comfort for couples or families: 2 bedrooms, 2 baths (king in the primary, queen in the guest) plus extras to sleep up to 6; central A/C and in-unit laundry keep the stay effortless. Ground-floor access and single-level flow make it easy for everyone.
Resort amenities you’ll actually use: Casa de Emdeko offers two pools (a serene garden freshwater pool and that iconic oceanfront saltwater pool), a sandy sunning area by the seawall, oceanfront BBQ/cabana pavilion, and beautifully kept tropical grounds with a friendly, low-key vibe.
Close to everything: You’re on famous Aliʻi Drive—about a mile or so to Kailua Village for cafés, shaved ice, the farmers’ market, and the pier for snorkel trips and fishing charters.
Inside the condo
Chef-ready kitchen with island, new appliances, and thoughtful stock
Open living area that spills onto the wraparound lanai (the money spot)
Primary suite with walk-in shower; guest room and second full bath
80 inch Smart TV, fast Wi-Fi, beach gear, and plenty of storage for longer stays
On the grounds
Oceanfront saltwater pool for wave-watching and sunset swims
Garden-courtyard freshwater pool for quiet lounging
Sandy sunning area (no ocean entry here—great for relaxing)
Oceanfront cabana with BBQs and tables for golden-hour dinners
Good to know
Casa de Emdeko is a gated, well-maintained community with a congenial, mostly adult atmosphere—ideal if you want peaceful oceanfront time without the mega-resort buzz.
Central A/C is available (not a given in Kona condos), and parking is on-site.
Why guests pick this one (and then rebook)
The combination of true front-row ocean positioning, a top-to-bottom remodel, and walkable Aliʻi Drive convenience is unusually hard to find in Kona—especially with a layout that works for two couples or a small family. If you’re coming for sunsets and sea spray, you won’t do better.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Your host
Keoki McCarthy Lives in Seattle. He purchased this property with the idea of having the most sought after 2 bedroom condo on Alii Drive. Keoki was born and raised in Hawaii and used to deliver pizzas to these condos as a teen going to Konawaena High just up the hill.
Why they chose this property
Because there are oceanfront condos—and then there’s this one.
Keoki’s Kona Casa isn’t just near the water; it’s right on it. The lanai sits next to the oceanfront saltwater pool, where waves crash just beyond the seawall and sunsets feel close enough to touch. Every morning starts with the sound of surf and ends with the glow of the Pacific, framed by swaying palms.
Inside, everything is brand new—completely rebuilt from the studs up. The kitchen gleams with stainless steel, quartz counters, and local art accents. Both bedrooms and bathrooms are beautifully redone, the lighting is warm and modern, and central A/C keeps everything comfortable. You get the vibe of a boutique hotel, but with the privacy and personality of a home.
Casa de Emdeko itself is one of Kona’s most beloved oceanfront communities. Guests love its two pools—one freshwater surrounded by tropical gardens, and one saltwater right on the ocean’s edge—as well as its sandy sunning area and open-air BBQ cabana. The atmosphere is friendly, peaceful, and distinctly Hawaiian.
This unit is the one you book if you want:
A front-row seat to the Pacific with no buildings or courtyards in your way
A fully remodeled, modern interior that feels luxurious but relaxed
Direct access to pools, BBQs, and the best sunset spot on the island
Quiet comfort in a gated community just minutes from Kailua Village
The ideal mix of privacy, beauty, and convenience

What makes this property unique
True ocean-edge position: Many units in the complex have ocean or garden views, but yours is front and center next to the saltwater pool on the oceanfront edge. That gives you a clear standout location.
Premium remodel: While other units may have updates, you emphasise that yours is “by far” the most remodeled. That means you can command higher rates, attract discerning guests, and differentiate.
Walk-out / minimal obstruction: Being at the front means easier access to the pool/lanai, quicker path to the amenities, better trade-wind flow, stronger lanai views.
Dual-pool access + beachfront lounge: Casa de Emdeko offers both a garden-courtyard pool and an ocean-edge saltwater pool plus a sandy sunning area. Those together create a resort-style offering seldom found in standard condo rentals.
Aliʻi Drive location: You’re on Kona’s main scenic ocean-drive, still very close to downtown but far enough for calm. That balance is attractive.
Strong guest experience potential: With a remodeled interior plus beachfront lanai, you can turn guests into raving reviewers who highlight “best view,” “best layout,” “top kitchen”—which further drives bookings.
