We chose this condo because the location was great. We are very familiar with the location and it is perfect for the 2 of us. We call this location the quiet end of Waikiki. Restaurants are a short walk as is shopping. Check it out on mapuest and you can see exact location. 1 block to the beach. The pictures posted on VRBO were true to the unit. The bed was very comfortable and bigger than our Cal-King at home. The kitchen had all the amenities that we needed. The AC was turned on when we arrived but we turned it off and didn't use it again. The lanis was very spacious and the windows in the bedroom gave us great natural air conditoning. Very well appointed condo. Looking forward to our next trip there.

We stayed here for our honeymoon. The place was well stocked both in the kitchen and recreational/beach amenities, which made our stay that much easier and enjoyable. The location is great, close to Waikiki and the beach but also far enough away from the main tourist area. While we were here, there were elevator repairs so some days we waited 20 minutes for an elevator that had room for us to go down. Even if repairs are down, that should be

Debbie our fabulous host was organized and communicated with us very well!
The property itself was fantastic, well kept, clean and stocked with everything you might need which was a bonus as I have stayed in this complex several times before with half as much provided. (including kitchen ware, ice packs, cooler, beach accessories---so helpful!!) My husband and I intend to return in the near future! Highly recommend!

Communication wirh host was great. The unit is beautiful. Northern view wirh a view of diamond head leaning off balcony. Close to the beach and the water was great. 10 min from diamond head. Pool here is ok. It does the job. But the unit has many extras to have fun. I highly recommend packing a soft side cooler. They had one but it came in handy. Didnt have any issues. Plenty of parking. Oh and the extra toxels and beach towels are in the closet.
Get tickets for pearl harbor early. Dont waste your time at Dole plantation. The pig and the lady resturant in china town we recomment. Jennys shrimp truck on the north qest side is great and cheap. Tikis bar and grille is hit and miss. Make sure thw fish is cooked through and if you get there late make sure your food hasnt been precooked and sitting around.
We would highly recommend this unit and host.

Condo was as listed and we largely chose because of free parking. Be warned it is a busy building and long waits for crowded elevators. Very often there were very few parking places available in the 5 story garage. Not sure what time they lock the doors in garage but we frequently had to park on upper level and walk down several sets of stairs to access building on lobby level. Other than these inconveniences it was a generally nice unit and Debbie was easy to work with!

For those of you who don’t need the hotel life, the Waikiki Banyon is a great option. Clean room. Great view. Easy access to everything. Mostly, very affordable.

It was super easy. Go to garage and allowed to park and get pass. The beach chairs and equipment made it so enjoyable. 2 blocks from the beach and the main strip. Plan a little extra time for elevators is the only thing I would recommend. The washer and dryer on every dloor were great. I downloaded the app and paid through there because will tell you when laundry is done. I woud highly recommend this place.

Enjoyed this little unit. Less than 2 blocks from the beach and free parking. They also have beach chairs and an umbrella you can use plus other beach toys. Will recommend or stay if we come back.

Spent 4 nights in September. Everything was excellent, zero surprises. Communication with the owner, check-in and check-out, and the entire process was a breeze. The place was spotless, the kitchen was well stocked with high-end cookware and every utensil and small appliance you'd need, and the bed was comfy. Plus the view. All in all, would stay here again and would 100% recommend!

I don’t think I realized that this condo was on the 21st floor of a 36 ish story building. The height does give you a great view which we really enjoyed. The condo is within easy walking distance of any of the sights along Waikiki beach. I especially appreciated having laundry supplies in the condo; the washer/dryer were on every floor and worked fine! The little coffee shop in the lobby has great baked goods.

Everything was top notch. East access to the beach and dinning. Pool and hot tub were nice. And the bed was very comfortable. Will be returning.

We stayed for four nights on a layover with the goal of getting some beach time prior to our further travels. The location of the unit was great - just a few blocks from Waikiki Beach. The unit was comfortable with amazing views. The kitchen was well stocked and easy to cook in . We really enjoyed having the beach chairs, straw mats for the beach, and boogie boards available for our use. Laundry was available which was helpful. I would definitely stay here again if in Waikiki.

Having stayed in VRBO properties numerous times I'm sometimes prone to saying, "matched the photos". In this case the home far exceeded the photos. This home is beautiful and equipped way beyond any reasonable expectation. Make this place your home during your next trip to Hawaii. You will not be disappointed. Lastly, and most importantly, the owners (Hosts) Mr. & Mrs. Riggs (Art & Debbie) are seriously interested in their guests welfare, comfort, and enjoyment and I've never said that about any previous host and I've stayed in VRBO properties over 100 times.

This condo is a quick walk to the beach and all restaurants/shops. Debbie was very helpful and assisted in getting the check-in information when it had gone to my spam without me realizing. She also helped get in touch with property management when minor fixes were needed to the condo during our stay. Would recommend staying here!

Pros:
The condo itself is clean and as pictured online.
The condo is in a good location.
Everything was provided for our stay including kitchen and beach gear!
Cons:
The pool/recreation area is older and dirty.
The parking attendant holds up the line entering into the condo every single time.
Neutral comments:
Our check in process was delayed due to an error but was corrected immediately once we reached management.
The air conditioner is a little loud but cools the unit quickly.
For the price, a good option.

We ahead a great stay in Honolulu. The apartment was a few blocks from Waikiki Beach. The place was clean and the bed was comfortable. It can be loud at night when sleeping but should be expected with a city. There was a fan in the room that we used and it helped drowned out the noise. My only recommendation would be that the sofa is very uncomfortable to sit on. I have sciatica issues and it aggrevated it. My husband had no issues. I would definitely stay here again.

This unit is on the 21st floor of a 40 story building. It looks brand new, with granite countertops modern decor and new foam mattress king sized bed. It has two large screen HDTV’s, one in the living room and the other in the bedroom. The pool on the sixth floor outside deck is well kept and very warm. There are also two jacuzzis. There are three elevator banks and we never had to wait… This was a lovely experience…. Mahalo

Absolutely fabulous property with millions dollars view. There is everything for your enjoyment: TV’s, beach chairs, choice of towels, comfortable mattress, all possible dish-ware and equipment for cooking, even professional chef’s knives (how many VRBO properties have at least one decent knife?)!
Sparkles, beautiful and cozy from A to Z. We’ll be back - no question!

Could not get a better location. Close to great restaurants, but not in the middle of Waikiki hustle and bustle.

After landing in Honolulu we paid careful attention to the instructions to make sure our check-in process was smooth and we could unwind once we arrived. We parked in the garage and went up to our room on the 21st floor, only to find that someone was still in it cleaning the condo. We weren’t given any explanation at this point and instead told to go all the way back down and speak with the supervisor at the property management company on the 5th floor of the opposite tower. Keep in mind we are carrying all of our luggage with us for each of these trips. The supervisor let us know that even though it was 4:45 and our check-in time was 4:00 our room wasn’t done being cleaned and that it should be done within an hour. We then had to follow the supervisor back to they condo (luggage in hand) and get the parking pass. This whole experience was extremely disappointing and we would have loved to check in at the time we paid for and was listed in our contract. At the very least the rental company should have reached out to us to let us know the rental wouldn’t be ready in time.
The room was very clean and we were grateful for the amenities. However, we likely wouldn’t come back due to the poor customer service from the rental company.

Well where do I start. This place is just wonderful. Upon entering this condo unit you really noticed that is was exactly like the pictures.It was clean and very updated from the kitchen to the bathroom. The king size bed was comfortable and the kitchen had all the utensils that one could need.Lots of closet space and drawers for you clothes and a laundry room just down the hall. The view from the lanai was great especially at night. You could see how all the lights lit up the hillside. Walking distance to all the shopping and restaurants in Waikiki. Would definitely stay here again! Thanks Debbie for sharing your great condo!

This was our second time staying in this condo and there is a reason for that. It is a super place, clean, has everything you could want/need for beaching or cooking, which we didn't do this time. We had a minor hiccup and it was resolved in such a quick manner, I wasn't sure if there really was something wrong. As the condo faces the mountains it is a great place to chill with a beverage, adult or otherwise, and we were lucky enough to have a lovely breeze in the evenings. The bed is very comfy and several different pillow choices, very nice extra!!

We booked on short notice (like 3 or 4 days in advance) due to construction work at the condo we had originally booked. Still everything went very smoothly.
The condo has everything you might need and the lanai is just perfect for breakfast with beautiful views.
Highly recommended!

Debbie was a pleasure to work with. The condo is exactly as pictured and the remodel was done very nicely. The morning view of the sun coming up over the mountains is beautiful! The location is great as you are a quick walk to the beach, restaurants and shopping. Tikis Bar & Grill is just around the corner for great happy hour deals too which we loved. We are already planning on returning to the islands next year and this condo is at the top of my list to stay again. You are at the end of the strip so it's less crowded and easy access to the H1 for all you who want to get out and do some sightseeing. Absolutley loved this placed and highly recommend staying here during your time in Waikiki!

We were visiting Oahu to visit our daughter who lives nearby. We were ecstatic when we entered the condo for the first time. It was beautifully renovated and furnished, clean and inviting. The bed was very comfortable and the condo was equipped with everything you could ask for from all kitchen supplies, bathroom supplies, to beach equipment. It took just a minute to walk to the beach. If we ever visit Hawaii again, this unit would be the first we would look for. Thank you Debbie for a beautiful experience. Aloha
