Location of the apartment is great. Walking distance to beach, shopping plaza and the fashion street. About 10 minutes drive to a Japanese supermarket. Overall very convenient. Fully equipped with standard kitchen appliances, washer and dryer.
Not much of a view, but it didn't bother us.
Only a few minor things I wish they would be better,
1. WiFi is not too good. Only have signal in the kitchen and dinner area. Lost signal in the bedroom. Speed and bandwidth are low, 4 of us couldn't stream together.
2. Walls are thin. You can hear people walking above you. So you may not get the rest needed.
Overall, even with those things, we still had a great time and will rent again and recommend it.

James from Captain Cook was terrific and responsive to our requests. We would recommend Captain Cook, but not this property, The on-site manager was despicable, and argumentative in the extreme from the very first day. Not a real 2 bedroom, as the second bedroom was not walled off from the kitchen. The windows were anything but soundproof and did not inspire confidence in the event of high winds. The noise from the street was pervasive and there was also noise from work being done in adjacent apartments. Anthony a groundskeeper was a pleasure. The property suited our needs for one month and overall we had a good experience, but I cannot recommend 430 Lewers Street. We have moved to a quieter location.

Overall the space was nice and very convenient to everything in Waikiki. The television in the living room was not working, which luckily wasn’t a big deal for us but may be for others staying, also the exterior front door knob was broken, and after contacting the host and told maintenance would repair , no one ever came to fix it so every time the door would open or close the handle would fall off.

This was a super cute condo in a perfect location in Waikiki! We brought our daughter to visit Manoa and to see Honolulu for the first time. The condo was right in the middle of everything—walking distance to restaurants and the beach, and a close drive to Manoa, Diamond Head, Pearl Harbor, the airport… We covered most of the island during our week-long stay, and nothing was more than about an hour away! The condo was beautiful. It was clean and had great toiletries, cooking pots/utensils, supplies, beach towels, and washer/dryer right in the unit. The property manager made check-in fast and easy. Would definitely consider returning. Thank you!

My family of six stayed for three nights. The property was clean and very well equipped (beach towels, beach chairs, used the laundry machine several times). Met all of our needs for a long weekend stay in Waikiki. Easy walking distance to everything. Only complaint was odor in hallway leading to condo (not the actual condo itself, seemed to be coming from the trash chute). A small convenience store is located directly below Aloha towers for any last minute grocery items or things we forgot to bring which was nice. We rented a minivan and parking was tight but definitely doable and nice to have in the city.

This condo was the perfect home base for our Honolulu vacation. Traveling with 3 teens the condo was roomy and comfortable. The two bathrooms were great to have. The condo came equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay, was clean and conveniently located. The parking space was a god send in an area where parking is really hard to find. Tons of restaurants and shopping within walking distance as is Waikiki Beach. The property manager communicated clear instructions for check in and was available for assist although we didn’t have any issues during our stay.

This was a fun stay. The place could have been cleaner when I got there. And some things I had to fix (small handyman stuff) but overall a great stay. The people were friendly and I enjoyed the neighborhood.

Overall it was a great place. Would I stay again, probably not, but here are the pros:
Location is great if you want shopping, places to eat and coffee. We needed 2 rooms and bathrooms so this was perfect. Having a washer and dryer was useful. Bed was comfortable which was pleasant as exhaustion was a thing per day.
Cons:
The condo smells of everyone’s cooking per day so be prepared. The elevators were a daily pain as waiting for them was the first thorn then being tricked by it going up instead of down was annoying. The Wi-Fi would not work and I ended up switching off everyday. The cable (non existence of cable) making you choose a free movie to watch on repeat. My family was gone most of the day but at the end of the day to not be able to watch anything interesting was a thorn. I did end up donating many of items I felt like should have been provided as I have stayed at other tourist condos with more of a selection. The parking structure is a tight fit and if a car is coming and one is hoping it is scary, but I guess this is to be expected. We didn’t see a bug until the second to last day and it was a large unknown thing that I refused to label because I needed to believe that it was not what it looked like.
All of the cons are to be expected or at least understandable for the area. But they were worth mentioning so that the next tenants are aware!

The unit was great--it had one large and one medium bedroom, with a spacious living/dining/cooking area and two patios. Getting to the pool was also a breeze, and there was a lot of additional outdoor space in the pool area. We liked the easy access, but the unit does look directly out onto the pool area, so it isn't the most private. (Pool deck is closed 10pm-8am, however.)
The location was also ideal--easy walking to the main shopping street in Waikiki but off the main street enough that driving to Honolulu was easy. There's a coffee shop next door and lots of easily accessible restaurants.
We also brought our 1 year old with us, and the place was great for her. We did have to bring a portable crib (there's a massive closet in the 2nd bedroom which fit the crib), but there was an umbrella stroller in the unit, a bathtub, and the pool was heated so very comfortable for her.
Management was extremely communicative and helpful. There was a potential problem with the A/C and they were very proactive about solving the problem ahead of our arrival.

The condo was clean, spacious, and in a great location. Check-in was easy and the property managers answered all of my questions in a timely manner. The convenience store outside the main entrance was "convenient" and it was great to have a parking garage in the building. We didn't have to worry about the security of our car while we enjoyed being able to walk most places.
We were fortunate to find such a lovely accommodation at the last minute! Originally our plans were to stay on the North Shore, but due to renovations, the property that I had booked had to be canceled at the last minute.
Although Waikiki was not my first choice for our Christmas vacation, we had a wonderful experience and this beautiful, updated condo was a part of that.
Thanks for saving the day VRBO!

The Property Manager was super helpful! The location is literally 5 minute walk on the main Waikiki shopping street and 10-15 minutes out to Waikiki Beach! Perfect to have for parking too!
The one picky thing I personally was the toilet. I didn't realize it had a slower flow in the main master room. The bathroom in the hallway worked perfectly. However, the Property Manager made a full disclosure about it when I reached out.
Overall, this is a perfect location with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and WITH parking! I would come back to this place!

I had an easy going and productive stay at Roger’s condo unit. I didn’t realize it was a studio unit until we were there, but then again I didn’t look too closely to begin with. The security is nice because of the access required to get to the units, the only issue I had was that some of the dishes still had food or drink dried on the inside of them, but aside from that I didn’t run into too many issues. All in all a good location to spend a vacation in Honolulu!

Really enjoyed our stay in #19A - plenty of room, especially in the MBR. Well-lit throughout and ceiling fans to circulate air. Easy drive to and from Fort Shafter and an easy walk to Hale Koa and the Army Derussy recreation area. Very nice pool / BBQ outside area on premises, and easy access to canal walkway. ABC store near front door made for convenient emergency shopping and snacks. Fantastic Thai restaurant (Siam) a block away. Only negatives (1) cabinet hardware need tightening up, (2) BA2 fan never turned off, (3) curtains need to be replaced with darker / thicker materiel to block out city lights at night - way too bright when trying to sleep. Would definitely stay here again.

Property is clean and has a fantastic air flow. 5 Reasons for stating at the Aloha Towers Unit 19A:1. Safe2. Cleanliness 3. Comfortable 4. Convenient location 5. Amenities Let’s not forget the property manager James Wickard. James was extremely accommodating and always responded to our needs in a timely manner. The entire Captain Cook staff were always helpful, respectful, professional and kind. We hope to be able to return to Honolulu next year for our yearly 3 months vacation only if the current crimes and homeless issues are resolved. We were very afraid of going out at night among the homeless people since we were walking among the unhinged houseless people and we were unprotected. Best of luck to Honolulu in resolving the current issues.
