Lea Casa at Casa de Emdeko

Excellent location and very nice property, very convenient

I liked the pools and the condo size, but the condo wasn’t clean. The water was shut off for a few hours and we didn’t receive a message notifying us or giving us updates on how long water would be shut off.

Our experience started off well as the property manager, Cindy, was very responsive to text. She allowed us in about an hour or so early. Upon arrival we discovered that our condo was full of bugs! There were literally hundreds of bugs all over the pillow, bed, and floor! When I contacted Cindy about that, I was dismissed as the knats being seasonal and thanks for my understanding. She didn't even offer clean bedding or housekeeping to clean the mess! In general the unit wasn't very clean. Our shower had mold in it. Parking is a nightmare as there are minimal parking spots inside the gated area. There are covered vehicles, assuming it's the condo owners' vehicles, taking up a lot of the spots. It's hard to find parking within several minutes walk and that makes it hard if you have groceries, beach equipment or small kids. It really makes you think twice about a quick trip anywhere or you might lose your spot. The grounds with pool and faux beach area are nice. The kitchen was fairly well appointed. The unit has a pull out sofa bed for guests 3 and 4. The space is so limited with the coffee tables and chair that it's super hard to get around. I would recommend this unit only for 2 people. We made do, but I would not choose this particular rental again.

We had an overall good stay at Lea Casa. Cindy was an excellent host—very communicative, caring, and considerate throughout our visit. The condo had lots of thoughtful touches like beach chairs and iceboxes, which were super handy for our beach outings. The kitchen was well-stocked with utensils and there were plenty of bath towels available. The AC worked great, which was a big plus in the Kona heat. We also appreciated having a small mart within walking distance. There were a couple of drawbacks: the patio screen door was ripped, and unfortunately, bugs came in. I ended up using masking tape to block the holes. Also, there was a morning with no water for about four hours due to a temporary shutoff, which was a bit inconvenient. The WiFi was slow but functional. Despite these minor issues, the place was clean and overall a great value.

Loved the pool and relaxing atmosphere!

beautiful setting for sunset pictures

Very clean, quiet, manager was great to work with!

Too big kitchen compare with smaller living area. I like wave crashing to the rocky water front.

Nice clean condo with updates. The salt water pool on the beach was the best. All of the other people were friendly and it felt like a community. I would stay there again.

Beautiful view of the ocean, easy check in process. The saltwater pool was nice. The only downside is that it is older and shows signs of it.

Enjoyed the quiet beachfront property with oceanside saltwater pool

The place was great. Right on the water. The salt water pool was great area to watch the sunset.

It is an amazing place to stay!!!! The pool was clean there is a sand area with chairs! Amazing view on the sunset!! The apartment was clean! I highly recommend it!

Great little condo complex in quiet area but still walkable to Kona for shops/restaurants. My husband and I would stay there again.

First, I want to say, communication with the unit manager was easy; Cindy was absolutely lovely. And that’s the only nice thing we have to say. Booked this property for the pools. Upon arrival, both pools were closed. Maybe 4 days before check-in, 1/31/2025, I received notice that one of the pools would be closing 2/3/2025 for annual maintenance but the second pool would be available. Unfortunately, the pool was actually closed 1/31 and the second pool was closed for several days without any notice. The unit itself, 215, was dirty and had a terrible smell. We described it as the was the penguin exhibit smells in a zoo. Please understand we were visiting from a very rainy part of the mainland and know the difference between the rainy musty smell and something rotten. The furniture in the unit was worn, broken and uncomfortable. Pillows and linens were stained. Someone else’s hair trimmings were all over the counter in the bathroom. Old food was in the fridge when we checked in. The number of light switches in this place is hilarious; lightbulbs were burnt out; fans were so dusty we didn’t want to use them. Overall, not impressed. Check-out was unreasonably early at 10am and included a long-list of required clean-up: take trash out to dumpsters, strip all linens and put in laundry, run dishwasher, etc. seems clear the guests just clean up after themselves and no one from the property does anything.

It’s a ground floor unit but a short walk for coffee in the cabana overlooking the ocean. The unit itself is wonderful, upgraded and clean. It has everything needed to be comfortable and enjoyable.

The grounds are pretty and the view from the tide pool and "beach" is beautiful. Unit is like being at ABNB. Condiments in frig, foil, plastic wrap, etc in cabinets. We had a great 3 day stay and would stay again. Only issue was mold in the shower, which I wiped off with a clorox wipe and the air conditioner must be timed because it would default back to 78 after 12 hrs. It also shut off and fan ran but it was 80 degrees over night until I turned it off and back on again. Then it started cooling again.

55 PLUS CROWD. Very quiet between 9PM to 9AM

Wonderful location to stay. Property could use some updated furniture and fixtures. Clean and well maintained. Nice and private property. Lacking in sound and light insulation between units.

Nice salt water and fresh water pools; pleasant shared areas including private sandy area for sunbathing. No beach, but was able to see dolphins, whales, and fish! Condo was nice if a bit outdated. Lovely management contact; would stay here again for sure!
