The property has commanding views and is nicely remodeled. It can comfortably sleep 3-4. Two minor irritations: the lack of a dishwasher and the AC blasts loudly onto the balcony. But overall a good property and we'd consider staying again.

This unit has a beautiful direct view of Diamond Head with ocean view to the right. The unit is beside the laundry room which was a bonus for mid trip loads and away from the elevators, so not a noisy hallway. Location for us was perfect with the five minute walk to the beach. Plenty of parking (1 spot free with the unit) and also has an EV Charger. An over all good experience.

The room was as expected. Very close to laundry and garbage which was a plus for us. View was exquisite and we enjoyed the sunrise every morning! Our family of five barely fit, but we made it work! Would stay here again. Thank you!

Communication was excellent. Everything was as expected and in good order. We would recommend staying here to anyone. Elevators were quick and parking was easy. Short walk to everything you need as well as paradise at the beach. Loved it.

Loved our stay! The unit was exactly as listed and pictured. Views to die for and a great value. Location was perfect for walking around Waikiki.
Couple notes I would say: we had 5 people (one on the pull out sofa) and when the doors are closed to the bedroom it gets pretty warm, AC doesnt make it to the room. Could also use bigger skillets for groups of more than 2. Blackout curtains would be a nice touch.
Overall 5 stars and we would definitely stay there again! Thanks for sharing your place!

This unit was cute and clean. It was a little smaller than I imagined but not cramped by any means. The views of the ocean and Diamond Head were spectacular. Great views of the morning sun peeking up, and a nice location to be able to walk to most places without a car. We rented a car and benefited from the free parking and get away to less crowded beaches. Wonderful trip. I would use Midway again!! <3

My family of five had a tremendous time staying at this location. The location is fantastic and provides easy access to everything you need in Honolulu (beach, downtown etc.). The view from the lanai is outstanding, and we greatly enjoyed watching the sunrise every morning over the distant mountains. This particular unit is on the TOP floor (37th) of this building, so the views don't get better from this location.
The unit is well appointed with the essentials. While it was small for a family of 5 with teenagers, it worked just great for us. We were barely in the room anyway. As an added benefit, the top floor of this building has ceilings that are higher than all other floors. So that made the space feel larger than it otherwise would have felt.
The beds and linens were great. My two teenage daughters had no complaints about the comfort of the sleeper sofa they shared. My wife and I would both say the quality of the bed was excellent.
The entire condo is certainly showing its age. This will not be comparable to top-shelf Honolulu resorts just a few blocks away. Hallways, elevators, the pool area and other public spaces feel a bit tired. But it is not unsightly or run-down either. The public spaces simply feel like an apartment complex, not a Hawaiian resort. So bear that in mind.
The unit does lack a dishwasher, which is a small drawback. We compensated by mostly using paper/plastic products to avoid washing many dishes on our vacation. :)
Also, the shower is a bit narrow on space. The shower curtain is very light and tends to blow in/stick to you during a shower. A heavier grade shower curtain or curved shower bar would grant more elbow room in the shower.
Other than those small drawbacks, we highly recommend this unit. The management communicated well, and we had no needs for them to address throughout our stay. If you book this unit at an affordable price point, it will likely be a stay you will find highly enjoyable! Very recommended!
