We welcome you to our Oceanside Garden home at Casa De Emdeko, where you will be embraced as ohana (family) at our tastefully renovated one-bedroom ground floor suite, just steps from the ocean. We love living at the “the Casa”- and we know you will too! Constructed in 1969, Casa De Emdeko stands out as one of Kailua-Kona's first condo buildings, nestled along historical Ali'i Drive.  Here- within a unique, gated u-shaped complex- lies a meticulously maintained garden of mature plumeria, hibiscus, bougainvillea, and palms. Pathways lead though these gardens to the mighty Pacific Ocean.We were instantly drawn to the mid-century architecture and lava-stone walls exude old- Hawaiian charm, social cabana dining area, and tiki torches providing the perfect setting for friendly gatherings.   It is important to us that our renovated unit continues to maintain updated with modern conveniences while retaining the charming retro aloha-vibe of its original 1960s construction that we fell in love with. Our fully-refreshed-for-2024, deluxe one-bedroom unit (920 square feet) features an all-new king-size bed and queen-sized sofa bed, and a convertible twin chaise in the living room.  Here, you can fall asleep to the sounds of the ocean waves with the evening fragrance of flowers in the gentle Hawaiian breeze.  If you prefer, close the windows, enjoy the peaceful hum of the AC and get cozy!When you awake, start your perfect day in the sunshine with a cup of world-renowned Kona coffee on the lanai or venture out sleepily to the ocean.  We love coffee...maybe you do too! We offer a French press, drip coffee maker, and stovetop Italian espresso maker for your use.   Later, unwind in the comfort of our comfy chairs with a Mai Tai in one of our tiki mugs.  You will enjoy our central AC, ceiling fans (or both!). We have a Bluetooth stereo, and a smart TV with cable and wifi in the living room and bedroom for streaming. Stay connected with loved ones via our highspeed internet or catch up on work- if you must!  Casa de Emdeko 116 is the fourth unit from the ocean in the south building. We have two pools at the Casa.  From our lanai (patio) make a left and you will immediately see the ocean and our lava-rock-rimmed ocean front salt-water pool.  A few steps further leads to a man-made sandy beach enclosed by a lava stone wall, where guests can lounge on provided recliners under the palms and relax in the sun.  The Casa has an unbeatable seating area in the retro-style lava-rock cabana for guests to enjoy.  If you turn away from the ocean you'll find another oasis—the second pool, surrounded by palm trees and bird of paradise, offering a tranquil retreat within a tropical garden.In the evenings, the “Casa” is a social place at sunset.  You and your ohana can join residents and guests alike to celebrate the end of a perfect day with a spectacular Kona sunset.  Tiki torches and the BBQs are lit, and everyone gathers to “talk story” and share a meal with friends old and new.  If you prefer a quiet evening in, we have a comfortable lounge and dining area on our private lanai for your enjoyment.Casa de Emdeko 116 serves as an ideal base for Big Island adventures.  Magic Sands Beach, Kahalu’u Beach Park, Kona Pier and Kona Town are just minutes away.  Beaches, water sports, snorkeling, diving, dining, music, farmer markets and historical sites await your discovery. Kona has many cultural celebrations and festivals year-round that you are sure to enjoy.  For stargazing enthusiasts, a trip to the top of Mauna Kea offers unrivaled celestial views.  Join us for Iron Man in October- but book ahead! There are so many wonderful experiences to be had in this truly magical place.  We invite you and your ohana to fall in love with Hawaii.  You will experience West Side Hawaii at its finest at Casa De Emdeko 116.
