立地は最高、プールやサウナがあるのもよかったです。ロビーマンもとても親切でした。ただ、お部屋の清掃はあまり綺麗にされていませんでした。ベッドの下に前の宿泊者が残したごみ袋が残っていたり、薬のタブレットが落ちていたりしました。小さい子供と一緒だったので、薬が落ちていたのは大変危険でした。それ以外はとてもよかったです。

We were in Hawaii for our son’s wedding and wanted to stay in Fairway Villa as we stayed there 4 years ago and loved the location. Was easy to book and we had no issues during our stay. We were happy that there were beach chairs, snorkel equipment and lots of beach towels (we didn’t need that many).

good location - close to Waikiki Beach and was within walking distance of area restaurants. don't leave food anywhere but in the refrigerator as small roaches abound if you do!

The unit was clean and had new towels and linen,. we loved the short walk to all the popular waikiki restaurants and shopping. The beach chairs provided were in great condition along with the beach towels. Also, having a washer and dryer in the unit was great since we were there for 15 days. I rented a full size Chevy Impala and had no trouble parking in the parking stall which had been described as a small stall for a compact car. I will definitely use this location again in the future.

We enjoyed our stay. 1st trip to Hawaii for our 27th anniversary. We found unit 817 to be comfortable and cozy for 4 Adults. Clean neat quiet and convenient to shops and sights. Would definitely come back and stay in this unit.

Nice condo in a really convenient location. Noisy Ala Wai Blvd location and could really use some new double pane windows, instead of louvers. Condo in good shape and provided beach towels, chairs, and an umbrella. You need to supply your own condiments, spices, etc, which I expect at any condo, and anyone who doesn't should stay at a hotel.
My two biggest issues was the underground parking garage. Previous reviews said get a small car for the space. Property management echoed that. I reserved a standard, got a full size (Optima) and two days later was changing it in for a Kia Soul for the higher ground clearance. The entry/exit is at such an angle due to some spot repaving that every time I exited in the Optima it sounded like I was ripping the bottom off the car. So, shorter wheel base or higher ground clearance. The space is very narrow, though. I doubt a Jeep would fit.
Second would be the AC. The small window units were ok but had trouble keeping the rooms cool. Otherwise, it was a great place to stay to avoid the high cost of Waikiki Beach. Walking distance to everything in the area.

Nice unit, a little outdated and not much storage, but the location was perfect for us. The louvered windows NEED to be replaced with double paned windows for noise. The traffic on Ala Wai Blvd is LOUD and kept my wife awake. The air conditioners could be updated too for noise. I brought ear plugs. They supplied beach chairs which we used each day, and beach towels and umbrella. That was great. I really like the view of the canal and the golf course. The walk to Waikiki beach and shops is a couple of blocks and was fantastic. Not having to find a place to park was worth it's weight in quarters.

Room 817 at the Fairway Villa is very modern and clean. The AC is very good, robust and easy to set. wifi is excellent. cable TV is good but no premium cable channels. washer and dryer are easy to use. we only had one problem and that was dampness in the rug caused by a crack in the unit housing the master bedroom AC. this led to mildew and mold and Captain Cook moved us to another floor. That unit was older and had very small, low power AC units. It was always a bit stuffy in 2002. I loved having a parking space as the Ala Wai Canal area has very limited metered parking. It is centrally located. We could walk two blocks to the International Market place for shops and restaurants. Our house manager James was excellent about communications and meeting our needs.

We thoroughly enjoyed our seven night stay at Fairway Villa #817. It was extremely convenient to Waikiki beach, only two block walk. The roof offered a great view of the ocean and a 360 degree view of everything. If you want a quick dip in the pool or to grill you can find both on the roof. In the lobby there is a security guard and a Official mail drop. Unit #817 was cozy and comfortable and we really enjoyed having a washer/ dryer in the unit. Having two rooms gave us space and plenty of room to relax. The parking space was perfect and convenient...but only for a small car or small SUV. We enjoyed walking to dine and shop close by. There is an ABC grocery store and a whalers grocery store within a block or two. The next time we’re in Waikiki we would definitely stay here again.

Location of the unit was great; close to nice mall and quiet location; however, the unit was very smelly (beds smelled like sweaty gross people had slept in them and never showered); the unit also had roaches -disgusting!!!! i had my young 4 year old and 1.5 year old toddlers having to walk around with gross bugs. Overall, while the location was nice, the unit itself seemed dirty, bug-ridden, and the beds were downright gross and smelly. Cannot recommend this place and will never stay here again.

This apartment is in an awesome position. Only 3 blocks from the beach, close access to a Convenience store for supplies, well known shops only a few minutes walk away, bus stop in the next street and a wide range of restaurants in easy walking distance. You also get a lovely view of the canal and the golf course. The property could do with refurbishing and the aircon is a bit noisy but it works. Everything is very clean and the beds are comfy.

Overall, we were satisfied with our stay in this 2-bedroom unit. The location is convenient to downtown Waikiki and close to the walking path by the canal. Master bedroom offers a beautiful view, and my daughter loved having access to the unit's patio from her bedroom. My only critical notes: The unit could benefit from some interior/decor updates. It looks more attractive in the photos than it does in person. The kitchen and bathrooms, in particular, are a little outdated. Also, the parking space assigned for this unit is tricky to navigate. If you have a large vehicle, it could present a challenge when pulling in and out of the space.If you're considering a Captain Cook Resort at Fairway Villa, realize that the individual units are very different from one anotherThe building's rooftop deck is a fabulous amenity. It's a lovely place to relax, soak up some sun, and enjoy the view of Diamond Head by day and of the city landscape at night.Again, overall we were happy with our stay. Captain Cook Resorts reservations staff was professional and organized, and the property manager, James, was very nice and helpful.Additional note: If you're considering a Captain Cook Resort at Fairway Villa, realize that the individual units are distinct from one another. My brother- and sister-in-law rented unit 914 (a one-bedroom unit), and it was stunning. Beautiful interior decor and all modern fixtures.

Awesome experience. This is the way to go. For us, we are not into the hotel scene. We like to get out and experience the island and come back "home" at the end of the day. Renting a condo is like having your own Hawaiian getaway. My 20-something kids loved it. Fairway 817 was comfortable and inviting in every way. Clean, tastefully furnished, well apportioned with all kitchen, bathroom, etc. items you need. Great location--lovely view from the lanai, easy to get in and out by car, easy to walk to your favorite Waikiki sites, a grocery store at the end of the block. And the roofdeck was fantastic -- we BBQ'd one night under the stars with a view of Diamond Head, Waikiki, and a beautiful sunset. We will be back !!

Fairway Villa is a lovely condo that makes you feel at home. It had everything you could ever need to stay long term if needed. The balcony had two rocking chairs that we used every morning to watch the rowers on the Ali Wai canal, and all the people walking about. The location is central to everything in Waikiki. I'd stay there again the next time I have more that 2 people vacationing with me.

Overall was good. It is amazing to keep such condition for over 40 years old property. But I have several points wish to improve . They are a air condition machines at each rooms. They are very old and noisy and not working well. TVA system is quite complicated and if vigor push some incorrect bottom of remote control, it is quite difficult to fix it and there was no manual and TIV program instruction. Sauna at roof is quite old and not working good. But overall impression is quite good! I hope some improvement and it is great,

This is a great condo we loved it. There's a mini convenience store about a block away it has a great bakery and has all the necessary essentials you may need. The condo was so well equipped even with a pineapple 's close to all the things you want to do. It's so much fun to seat on the lanai in the morning and watch people on Ala Wai Canal. If we ever have the opportunity to go back to Waikii we'll certainly stay here again.

The location of the apartment was excellent and a nice outlook over the canal and golf course, it's only negative was that it was quite a noisey spot (traffic noise), being only 9 floors up from three lanes of a busy road. . The pool on the rooftop made up for it for us, as was a quiet relaxing spot with fantastic views of Waikiki and not many people up there.

Cannot say enough about the staff at Captain Cook's, Paul and Byron both are so helpful and caring. This is our 5th year of booking with Captain Cook in Oahu and would not use anyone else. If any problem arises with the unit they are right on top of the problem , also the office staff are more than helpful to work with you on getting the dates you need. We stayed a month this year and had a great time going to the beach and in the evenings using the bar-be-cues to cook dinner, then sitting on the lanai watching the canoes on the canal. A wonderful location, and we met many of the Owners there and they are all friendly . Again thanks to Paul , Bryan and Ingrid for all your help. See you next year.

Actually, we intend to let the home in Kaiura and or Perl harbour area like we used to do it. Howevr due to short stay we found this flat. Our main purpose of stay is for playing golf every other day. So we forced to drive HI to the west to reach the any event we could reach the most of them within 1 hour drive. And we could dine out easily to Kaimuki and down town where we have a quite accceptable places,in terms of "taste" and its reasonable price.However,If avairable, we intend to let the pearl city area next winter for 1 month.
