What Do Guests Think? An Analysis of 246 Guest Reviews


Reviewer Portrait

The following executive summary is based on a comprehensive and impartial AI analysis of guest reviews. Keep in mind that all units are individually owned, and review scores among units can vary considerably.

Overall, guests love the location and value. Most condos are 1–5 minutes from Waikiki Beach, the zoo, and endless dining, food trucks, ABC stores, and shopping, making them easy home bases without needing a car. Check-in is typically smooth with clear instructions, and hosts are praised as responsive and proactive. Many units are very clean and thoughtfully stocked with beach gear (towels, chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards), and families especially appreciate the larger two-bedroom options with full kitchens and multiple baths. The ocean-view corner condo (Unit 1801) earns repeated raves for immaculate interiors, sweeping views of the Pacific and Diamond Head, and a great rooftop pool, hot tub, and BBQ area.

Expect a mix of compact studios with kitchenettes and a few renovated, spacious two-bedroom condos. Lanais are a highlight for morning coffee, ocean peeks, and cross-breezes, and buildings generally feel secure. Amenities vary by unit—some offer on-site laundry (or shared building facilities), and several include or offer parking (often paid and tight). Most reviewers note spotless interiors, comfortable beds, working A/C and Wi‑Fi, and easy access to transit; minor issues that did arise were commonly handled quickly by attentive hosts.

Trade-offs are typical of older Waikiki towers and a lively city setting: dated common areas, tight/limited parking with extra fees and occasional no in/out privileges, and street noise or late-night music (light sleepers may want earplugs). Elevators can be slow or briefly out, and a few guests mentioned warm rooms or loud window A/Cs, plus intermittent construction or maintenance around the building; experiences can vary by unit. If you prioritize location and value over resort polish, these condos deliver a convenient, beach-first stay—follow the check-in instructions, travel light, and enjoy being steps from the sand.

This condo was perfect for my family of 6. Check in was very easy. The number one thing I always look for when booking something is how clean the place is. This condo exceeded my expectations. The bathroom and the kitchen were clean. I liked that this place had beach chairs and an umbrella which was very useful for my teenagers and mom. The parking garage was a plus which fit my suv rental. The beach is a 3 min walk from the condo. I would recommend this place and would come back again. The host was very responsive but didnt have any concerns or issues. I was very impressed with the cleanliness of this condo. Thank you for having such a great place for my family and I to enjoy our first Hawaii vacation.

Leaving a 4 star only because it is not the 4 Seasons. But it gets a 5 star for value.

We loved our week stay in Waikiki. The location was convenient to the beach, shopping and restaurants. You can also rent scooters nearby. It was nice having so many options!

Good location, good layout and the two outdoor sitting spaces were really nice to have. Nice cross breeze. Necessities needed were provided but would have been nice to have shampoo and soap for the shower.

I came here with my boyfriend for his best friend’s wedding at Magic Island. This property is exactly as pictured! Very well updated and the views of Waikiki Beach the sunset are immaculate! Super close, walking distance to restaurants, food trucks and bars. The check-in was a breeze and the host was easily available for anything we needed (which honestly wasn’t anything). I highly recommend this rental!

The apartment was very clean would definitely stay again. Loved how there were so many places to eat and explore within walking distance. The beach was a 3-4 minute walk each is great! Would just recommend a beach umbrella. Enjoyed having my coffee out on the lanai in the mornings. The host was very helpful as well answered all the questions we had.

Beautiful view of the ocean and diamond head from the 18th floor…between a few tall buildings—citylife;). Amazing to walk 1 block to Waikīkī beach and also close to so many great food options! Condo is clean, pull-out bed is comfortable (no bar in your back), patio is a good size; I enjoyed doing my morning yoga routine while facing the ocean (or turning to face the sun coming over the mountain and crater to the east). 11 yr old loved the pool and the boogie boards (we also used the beach umbrella and chairs). Check in is super easy and staff is friendly, elevators were fast. Highly recommend! Janet is a great host.

This is a great little space for one or two people, the space was clean, decorated lovely, small kitchen with everything you need. Very close to everything, shopping, dinning , beach and all the evening events at Wiki beach. I was here to move my daughter out of UHM, very close and the perfect location for evening dinners and shopping with her and her friends from school to say goodbye for the summer. Cheers

Richard, our host, was responsive and gave us easy-to-follow instructions for checking in and checking out of the studio apartment. The unit was clean, comfortable, and in a prime location of Waikiki. I would highly recommend staying at this spot!

Peter, the property manager, was excellent at sending ahead of time detailed instructions for check-in and check/out. And when I thought I’d left something in the suite, he came over and let me in to see if it was there. Much appreciated!

Condo was in the best location for restaurants and beach. Choices from a McDonalds to more upscale were easy to get to. Beach was walking 3 blocks. The supply of towels and beach equipment was wonderful and included a wagon for transporting. Nice separation of bedrooms and baths gave everyone an end of day reprise. We didn’t do any cooking put a chef will find everything needed to fix a meal. Access and departure instructions were easy to follow. Having a free parking spot is ideal for parties with a rental car. Would recommend to persons wanting the feeling of home and not the more restricted hotel room.

If you are looking for a place to stay with nothing or limited amenities inside, this is the one and it's very spacious.It has no washer/dryer in the unit... the building has washers / dryers that can be used by anyone on the 3rd floor.

Celebrated our 10 year anniversary and 2 year delayed honeymoon. This unit was fantastic with the extra space compared to just a hotel room and a great location just a few minute walk to the beach. Would highly recommend

Beautiful, very clean condo. This is a corner unit facing the ocean with amazing views of the Pacific & Diamond Head from your private balcony. The condo was fully equipped with all the accessories you would need for the beach, pool & snorkeling. There is a roof top pool & hot tub with amazing views of the sunrise & sunset. The Waikiki Trolley stop is 2 short blocks away, making it easy to hop-on, hop-off to sightseeing in Honolulu. We rented a car for 3 days & headed up to the North Shore. Parking was convenient in our bldg for 35. a day, which is a real bargain in the area. The location was perfect & the owner & staff were easy & pleasant to work with. We would definitely recommend and hope to be back again soon. Fell in love with Honolulu.

Parking did not have a Designated space and at night there was no space in the parking lots. And it was an additional 30 a night for parking. Very chaotic and time consuming and Host would name other locations but no addresses.

The location was great, just a couple of blocks from the water. There were beach chairs, beach towels and an umbrella. What was difficult was how hot the room got. The little air conditioner did some but sleeping was uncomfortable. The bathroom in particular was incredibly sauna like after a shower so we kept that door closed. There was a lot of sidewalk construction in front of the building which made it a challenge to walk along the street. The baseboards in the bathroom was coming off and it gave it a dingy feeliing.

This studio apartment was perfect for my husband and I! Peter was easy to communicate with and the apartment had all the things we needed! I highly recommend!! The location was perfect in downtown Waikiki!

We were very pleased with the property. The location was great, everything was as advertised, and the owner always responded quickly to questions, providing excellent instructions and assistance. We enjoyed breakfast on the lanai every morning. The only downside is that it’s next to a busy & often noisy street - which is probably hard to avoid in the middle of Waikiki.

Overall our stay was good! Our issue was sidewalk in front of our entrance was torn up & blocked off so we either had to walk along side facing traffic or walk the opposite direction & crossover.

This studio apartment has a modern, fully equipped kitchen and bathroom with lots of storage space, a TV, fast and free Wi-Fi, and a comfortable queen bed. A wonderful location, less than 5 minutes walk to Kuhio Beach, 10 minutes to the International Marketplace for groceries and shopping, 15 minute walk to the Waikiki Aquarium. Many good eateries very close by. Public bus stop near the building. Thoughtful extras include two foldable beach chairs, umbrella, and boogie boards. Peter was excellent at communicating with us before and during our stay and attentive to details. Check in and check out went very smoothly. Bike shop in building will store luggage for a small fee; very helpful when taking a later flight. Would definitely consider staying here again.

We had an incredible stay at this VRBO in Waikiki! From the moment we arrived, everything was seamless—the check-in process was easy, and the condo was exactly as described, if not better. It was spotless, well-stocked with everything we needed, and had a stunning view from the balcony.The location couldn’t be better—just a short walk to the beach, great restaurants, and shopping. It was the perfect home base for exploring Oahu. The building was secure, and the amenities (like the washer & dryer and parking) made our stay even more convenient.The host was fantastic—super responsive and accommodating, making sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We loved waking up to the ocean breeze and unwinding on the balcony after a day of adventures.Overall, this place exceeded our expectations, and we can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a perfect Waikiki getaway!

The studio size unit is pretty basic, there is a kitchenette, with a 2 burner electric stove, and mini fridge and microwave. The linens provided were great and enough. Pretty simple, basic but great for sleeping only. The mattress was rough and not very comfortable. The owner of the listing doesn’t responds in writing but rather shows up in person, which it was kinda of odd when we reported that the coffee pot was missing, but he was kind, quick and respectful. The location is what is sells this listing quickly. The building is old and there is a musky smell on the hallway and when you walk in (I guess because the window a/c was turned off. The cleaning crew could have done a more meticulous job but overall it was ok. Hawaii is very expensive and for what we paid we could’ve have a much bigger and modern unit in other cities. Not in Hawaii, but like I said we spent most of our time outside and just came in to shower and sleep, so it was ok for us. We left behind a brand new umbrella for the next guest. Have fun in Hawaii!

Close to beach, Zoo and International Market. Also close to HUI hourly car rental next to Target 1block away. Lots of food places all around property. Perfect for 2 people.

February 2025

The unit was clean and sunny. We enjoyed the location but I have to say I wasn't used to all the city noises. We did not use the AC at night and slept with the doors open. The sleeper couch was very comfortable as well as the bed. The kitchen and bathroom were recently updated and very nice. Parking was expensive but less than the charges of nearby hotels. I would definitely stay at this centrally located condo again. You would watch surfers from the all the windows.

Great place to stay! Located just a very short distance to the beach, restaurants and shopping in Waikiki. The condo was clean and well stocked with everything that we needed during our stay. It was clean and everything worked as expected. Peter was great at communicating and even let us know that our rental was available a little earlier than expected on our arrival day. I would definitely stay here again!

We enjoyed this beautiful condo for 9 nights. The views were amazing! We cooked several meals and the kitchen was well stocked. We appreciated having lots of towels including beach towels. The onsite parking was so convenient. We paid 35 a day and it was well worth it. The condo is within walking distance to several excellent restaurants as well as Target and many ABC stores for snacks and other items. This condo is located less than 30 minutes from the airport. Your walk to the beach is under 5 minutes. We hope to stay here again the next time we visit. Maloha!

Just as advertised. Perfect size for me. Very clean. Bottles of water and a small bag of famous Amos cookies and some peppermints were waiting for me when I arrived. The bathroom is really large. Lots of drawers and nice long countertop. Nice size closet for hanging clothes. Full size containers of shampoo, conditioner and body wash. Plenty of towels. Very well stocked. Wifi worked well. The TV worked well and had more channels to choose from than most hotels I've stayed at recently. The Very short walk to the beach and lots of shopping choices nearby. Great poke restaurant on the end of the block past the rental shop. It always has long lines. This was a wonderful place to relax and get away from the crowds. Very peaceful. Peter was very helpful with any questions I had. I highly recommend.

There was no high internet and nothing TV in the flat. For the first 4 days the host refund 25/day. For the second 4 days were no reaction by the host. Incredible.

The apartment was very comfortable, It was very close to Waikiki Beach and several shops and restaurants.Variety of food choices in the area. I opted for hearty inexpensive which was plentiful tea I was able to take leftovers "home". for another meal which made it very affordable. Host was very responsive and helpful.

Nice little unit that perfectly fit our needs for a place to stay near Waikiki on New Year's Eve. Check in was seamless. The outside of the building and lobby are dated but the unit is very nicely appointed. Bathroom is huge. Everything was spotless. Parking was tight and sometimes limited, but that's to be expected in a busy urban location. It's that location for the price that really makes this unit. It's in the middle of great restaurants and shopping and only a very short walk to the beach. I'd rent it again if I'm back in Honolulu.

My husband and I really enjoyed our 6 nights stay at this breathtaking ocean and city view corner unit. The place was very clean and it’s located in a great location. It is within a short walk to all the shops, beaches, casual eating places, and many nice restaurants. The host, Janet, was very responsive to our requests. We would definitely go back again.

Small but adequate. Needs TLC. A super deep clean of grout and new caulk and base board in bathroom would spruce up the placeArea rug needs deep clean or replacing. We used both balconies- very nice and thank you for the beach chairs and floaties. Air conditioning is totally shot. Needs a new one Kitchen curtain is way too long and very dirtyCable TV has very little to offer Location is great.
