The Casa De Emdeko (Kona) Trip was Fabulous
We left here on July 3rd and came back on July 9th. The drive over took about 2.5 hours and it was just sprinkling rain as we pulled into the parking lot of the Kona condo. Parking was free and abundant - we usually parked between the little general store and the building because I have a big truck and the parking along the building was a little cramped.
We were in unit 202, which was a one bedroom, one bath condominium. We had rented through ATR properties, who although they weren't exactly effusive any of the three times I called them, they were polite and competent.
The condo was perfect, it had a small porch(lanai), a large bathroom, and a full, if a bit small, kitchen. I really liked the unit and would stay there again, but it did have a few cons - even though I will detail them here, let me say that I liked it and it was totally worth it for the fantastic price we paid ($80 a day).
The unit itself
As you walk in, the bedroom is the first thing on the right. It was a decent size, with a too-soft queen bed. It had a nice fan with remote and a large bathroom off of it. The bathroom off the bedrrom was a bit of a pain for 4 people, but we made it work. The bedroom windows open right to the walkway outside the unit and are close to the parking lot, so when sleeping late we heard some noise, however a large box fan on full blast that I had brought with us (go to Kmart and buy one for $10) drowned out almost all of it. We routinely slept till 9 and my 2 year old easily took a nap in the middle of the day every day.
The unit (and I think all of the units) had central air. You can control it however you like. It was always quite comfortable, temperature-wise.
The bathroom had double sinks, a large tub, and a stand-alone shower. There was always very hot water. The bathroom was very nice.
Continuing down the hallway, it opens up into a combined living room and kitchen. The kitchen is small. There is no table but there were 3 barstools against a high kitchen counter that were fine for meals.
... more later about the rest of the house, the complex, and what we did in Kona
