Waikiki Banyan

Tall, older towers on the quieter Diamond Head end of Waikiki, a block or two from a reef-protected stretch of beach, where the big draws are included garage parking and high-floor views. Best for couples and families with a rental car who can live with elevator waits and window AC.

What guests say

1 in 10 reviews mention walking to the beach

Guests love

  • Parking that comes included. Guests keep calling the garage spot a big money saver in Waikiki, and many say it was the reason they picked this building.
  • Diamond Head from the lanai. Upper-floor guests describe views across Diamond Head, the ocean and the mountains, with sunrises and city lights from the balcony.
  • Quiet end, calm beach nearby. Guests like being off the busiest stretch yet a short walk to a beach where a breakwater makes calm, shallow water for kids.
  • Rebuilt 6th-floor rec deck. Guests praise the renovated pool, hot tubs and deck, and several also mention the coffee shop and mini mart in the lobby.

Worth knowing

  • Elevator waits. Many guests report slow or packed elevators, especially around checkout and dinnertime, with some waiting 15 minutes or more on high floors.
  • Tight, low garage. Stalls are narrow and clearance is low, so large SUVs and lifted trucks may not fit - a few guests had to swap cars.
  • Window AC is the norm. Units rely on window AC that cools the living area better than the bedroom; some guests found it loud or dripping onto the lanai.
Choosing a unit: Guests on the upper floors, and in corner or end units with windows on two sides, are the most enthusiastic about the views; a few on the lower floors note they mostly overlook the 6th-floor deck, whose lights stay on at night.

Waikiki Banyan Partial Ocean View Condo
★★★★★ August 2026

To begin with, we had no idea how to get into our condo. Apparatently, we were supposed to be notified one week prior. Therefore, I had to call the company in order to get the information as there is no front desk. The view is amazing. The property s clean. You have to pay to wash your towels. The shower curtain rod needs to be replaced. It fell multiple times throghout our stay.

We had one issue and that was that the AC broke after our first night there. We were originally told it would be 2 days to fix. It was a honeymoon trip and I said that is not acceptable. They ended up moving us to a different rental for the night and assured the air would be fixed the next day. VRBO and the host were both on top of it and the following up was top tier. We went back to our rental in the morning and the AC guy was installing the new AC unit. I was very impressed with how accommodating VRBO and the host were for us. I give them 5 stars!!! Would definitely stay here again. Thank you for an amazing honeymoon!!!

Great property 10/10. Check-in/out 6/10. Cleanness 10/10. They had lovely snacks, samples like toothpaste, toothbrush. They had beach chairs, umbrella, and the view was great. Only thing is their check-in/out process. Instead of getting the info sent to you around check-in time, you have to text or call to get the info sent to you. Once in you have to then go back to your vehicle to put the parking pass on your mirror which is an issue due to how long it takes for the elevators at certain times took us 15 minutes(both times) to get one around 7/8 pm. This pass is a problem because you have 2 options when leaving you can either leave before loading and move to the front to load your things so you can return the pass or you load up and leave someone with your car and return the pass. It's inconvenient. Check out is not a second after 11am and you better hope your watch isn't off or forget something because the door will lock it self. We had a late flight and was planning on leaving right at check out. Literally, as we were closing the door, it locked it's self. But it wasnt fully closed the deadbolt stopped the door from closing. I messaged on vrbo then called the number list here which was for the building. So, then I found the text message and used that number to call and it took a couple of times before getting through. They ended up just saying it will be alright housekeeping would be there soon. The check-in/out is the only thing about the property I disliked.

We had a great stay here. The property is in a good location between the Marriott and Hilton, the apartment was well appointed and had everything we needed. Parking is included and free which is really helpful. Communication with the host was great. The newly refurbed recreation desk was excellent. Would absolutely recommend.

Exceptional stay & excellent communication with generous host. Home exceeded expectations with an ideal location, breathtaking views & exceptionally clean new furnishings. Bldg had great amenities and was within walking distance to all that is needed in Waikiki. Parking also worked well. We would happily stay here again when visiting Waikiki. Thank you Jeff!

This is a no frills unit - fine, clean, close to the beach. Nice but crowded pool on Floor 6. Parking pass is a huge plus! Mahalo!
