Property description is accurate. Gorgeous property with lush landscaping, ocean side beach and pool. Condo location is right on the water with incredible ocean views. Very peaceful! Condo is clean, roomy, and comfortable. Updated kitchen and bathrooms are nice. Biggest attraction is the wrap around lanai. You’ll spend every minute there! Knutson management is exceptional. They check in often and quickly address questions or concerns. Very accessible. My family has stayed in this community before and I highly recommend it.
The unit is lovely and well located. We had an issue with a dripping shower that continually splashed water all over the floor. When we asked for service management sent us a bucket and a mop so we could clean it up ourselves. It took a week to get it “fixed” so that it no longer dripped, but then only dispensed cold water. Bed has too much plastic covering. Like sleeping in a plastic bag.

Reviewer Comments:
The condo unit is nice, but the owner is difficult to deal with. There was minimal shampoo, paper towels, toilet paper, and no napkins. They told me it’s part of their rental agreement - as though I’m supposed to sit and read through it all. I’ve rented many properties as we all have, and they always come with basic necessities. I don’t have confidence they’d fix anything major if a bigger problem occurred, given their rigidness on small items like this.

Myself and 3 friends recently rented unit 219 for 9 days. I have stayed in this complex before and love the incredible views, pools and gardens, as well as its location on Ali'i Dr, which is far enough away from the centre of things, but close enough to access anything you need. The unit was clean, beds were comfortable and the recently renovated kitchen was beautiful. The extra large wrap around balcony right on the water is the star of this unit. Knutson and Associates are very responsive to any problems that might arise. Hope to stay again next year.

Beautiful, clean and well-appointed condo with the PERFECT view! Lanai has views on both the west and north side for those amazing sunsets - complete with residents who blow the conch shells to mark the moment. Property has both a chlorine and salt-water pool, with the salt-water one located right at water’s edge. So much fun when those waves come crashing into the pool. Great communication with Knutson & Asso Prop Mgmt before and during our stay. Casa de Emdeko is our favorite Kona location ... and 219 is our favorite unit!

Reviewer Comments:
The unit was a great location but the fact the ac didn’t work and we were given the run around was upsetting. After 24 hours of no ac and being told they are working on it to use fans was not acceptable. As a manager stood there and watch it jump up in temperatures she could see this was an issue. The first night was so bad as air was not moving I slept on balcony on an air mattress. After most of the next day spent on phone/text with management keeping me from enjoying my day and still no ac I called Airbnb and they said go to a hotel, we will credit you and they agreed this was not right so after a wasted day on this we packed up and went to Royal Kona down the road and was in a room nice and cool.
Casa De Emdeko located at near center of Kailua Kona. Building was old but well maintained. The ocean front room was quiet and cozy for us.
View was excellent, the wide open ocean. Sound of wave is wild. It was full moon while we stayed, so waves were higher than ever. Salt water pool just next to the ocean was fun.
The owner that we saw him often in KTA or Safeway casher respond me soon on WiFi trouble asking.
The only disappoint thing was low water pressure in the shower.
This place is exactly as pictured and met all of our needs and expectations. We’re a young couple with 3 kids (ages 6 and under). The place was a perfect size, had a washer/dryer in it, all kitchen appliances and needs, beach toys, snorkel gear, beach chairs, umbrellas and beach towels which are all huge benefits when traveling from afar - less to be packed! Initial needs were supplied and then we restocked as we used things up. Everything worked and anything we needed we simply text the number provided and within the same day our questions were answered or need was met. We were there for 10 days towards the middle into end of June and barely saw anyone…as in it is so peaceful and quiet and at any given time our family was normally the only ones, or accompanied by one other family at most at either pool. Not crowded AT ALL, but still close enough to everything - the main drive, shops etc. Other guests were kind and respectful and shared tons of good information as a lot of them were condo owners. Communication was great with the rental company and they were very proactive in reaching out and keeping up with us to ensure all our needs were met. I highly recommend this property and rental company! All I mentioned were just added features as I’d pay this and stay here a million times just for the view we had. We added this to our list of places we’d stay again for sure!
Pros: Location is great. View from porch is awesome. House was clean. Furnishings were fine.
Cons: while mgmt was good with answering calls with problems, there were still problems and none resolved during my stay. Dirty pots and pans. There isnt enough silverware for 6 people. Overall kitchen is lacking what I would consider essential items. Door fell off utility room and stayed that way. Broken dining chair and bar stool. This unit is best for 2 adults and 2 small children. We had to rent another condo after arriving to accomodate our family as the 2nd bdrm twin beds are made for younger children and the hide away bed was dirty and had a 1 inch thick mattress. The biggest con with this rental unit is that I reserved it 1 year prior but then in Jan 2024, i received a price increase. To say i was astounded will put it mildly. When I asked how Knutson {mgr} said i should find it in the contract. I couldnt. It was then pointed out buried in a long paragraph as one sentence. They can raise your rate whenever they want and however many times they want. I have rented a lot of places in my life but this was a first. Knutson's employee gave me a take it or leave it. BUYER BEWARE. THIS COULD BE A BAIT AND SWITCH.
Everything about our stay was perfect. The condo was exactly as described, the hosts were communicative from beginning to end and the location great. We will stay here again when we come back to Kona!

You can’t beat the view and sunsets from this property. It’s also in a great location, has two pool options, and a great outdoor BBQ area. It’s does need some touch up paint and lacks amenities (so make sure you pack your own) but we truly enjoyed the condo and property and would absolutely stay here again.

We loved our vacation in Kona. This property is as it is described. The location was in nice walking distance to the shops in Kona. We loved the lanai and the views of the ocean was breathtaking. We loved sitting out and watching the waves and the whales. The property is showing its age a little, but the unit and the property was very clean. The kitchen has been remodeled and very up to date. We couldn’t leave our front door open at night because of the hemp smoke smell coming from the people on the property next to this property. Other than that we loved it.

Reviewer Comments:
I booked this property over 6 months in advance through VRBO and a contract from Knutson as the property manager. I got an email from VRBO confirming the full price and thought that was that. About a month and a half before the trip I was notified by Knutson that despite the contract the rate would go up by $300 dollars due to a tiny clause in Knutson's contract allowing the owner to raise the price. I was given the option to either pay the extra or they would let me out of the contract. At that time it would have been very difficult to find another comparable unit since it is a popular area and units get rented well in advance. Knutson rep was not very apologetic about it, pretty much take it or leave it. So be sure to pay in full through Knutson asap to avoid increases, and even then, beware of a price increase. Other than that, the unit was in a gorgeous location. The unit is older but decently well maintained. A musty smell upon entry, but to be fair it was very humid in Kona. Kitchen well appointed; some signs of wear on the furniture; twin beds VERY firm/hard; sheets for king bed wouldn't stay on the bed. The bedrooms are next to the entry door. Beautiful lanai. The older louvered glass floor-to-ceiling window in the small twin bedroom allows a lot of wind and sound in to that bedroom; not a deal breaker but when we had a bit of a storm one night the adults staying in that room ended up sleeping on the couches, which were actually quite comfortable. Management while there was very prompt and responsive. It is a hike to get to parking from this unit but worth it for the direct oceanside views. The complex is very well maintained and quiet. There was no one there when we arrived to check in. Called mgmt and were told to just fill out a form there regarding our rental car info. Overall I would recommend this unit for the great location and stunning views.

The condo we stayed in had amazing views of the water and sunsets. The space had plenty of room for us. We loved the amenities like salt water pool right on the edge of the ocean.
This location is just plain Stunning! Having the sea at your feet and the sun set in full view is excellent. The condo was very well kept up and all the appliances worked perfectly. Thank you for having a coffee grinder and a standard drip coffee maker. This made enjoying the local coffees easy.
The salt water swimming pool is really nice!
It does take a bit of a walk to get to and from the condo, but it is worth it.
The only downside was the lack of parking inside the gate of the complex. But it worked out for the most part.

Reviewer Comments:
Not much to say that hasn't already been said. Location is perfect. Close to everything in Kona. The property as a whole is a bit dated, but this specific unit is in good shape. Great selection of appliances and cookware.As some others have said, it is a little bit of a walk to get to the unit, and there is no convenient way up/down the stairs. But this would only be a concern for some that have mobility problems. Otherwise, it is no big deal at all.
The view alone is worth the money. The unit is a little old, but well kept and for the most part pretty well stocked but could use some improvement, starting with everything needed for a nice cup of coffee. I think the listing could be a little more forthcoming regarding the lack of ADA features of the property. It’s a little difficult getting to the unit for a person on oxygen and/ or someone with mobility issues. If you were in a wheelchair it would be impossible. The elevator is almost useless. This unit is 1 of 6 that are directly overlooking the ocean and the wrap around lanai is fantastic!
Easy checkin and great communication with property management. The lanai was extensive and overlooked the ocean. Location was great as it was straight access to the shopping and restaurants. We would definitely stay again.

Attentive attention from Knutson and Associates. Always kept me informed with details about the unit and island. Beautiful unit with amazing views.
We stayed here for 6 days and I would do it again in a heartbeat! The property manager was very communicative! If I had a concern, I would text them and get a response almost instantly.
The master bedroom bed was super comfortable. The view… all I can say is WOW! There were a few days we didn’t really want to do anything other than sit on the balcony and just watch the ocean. The sunsets were insane! Having a washer and dryer in the unit were awesome! The kitchen is well equipped with everything you will need. The AC was awesome considering it was pretty warm and humid while we were there. It was nice having two pools for our teenage sons to play in. The liquor store in the front of the complex was very convenient for items we needed throughout our stay. If you’re thinking about this unit, BOOK IT! You will not regret it!
Thank you so much for giving us an awesome summer vacation! We will definitely be back!
