We loved the place. It had everything we needed for Christmas. It was in a very beautiful and quiet part of Diamond Head with easy access in and out. Everything was very comfortable. Thank you very much!

A great choice for a couple. We have stayed in this property before and always have found its location between Kapiolani Park and the ocean very amenable. This room is smaller than some apartments in the building, but has plenty of space for two people.

The amenities were adequate. Our stay was quiet. We were out of the room more than we were in it. Easy to get to and just what we needed.

Our stay was way too short!! The building had easy access and we felt secure! The room had the most beautiful view of Diamond Head on one side and the ocean on the other. The elevator was a huge plus!!! We would stay here again!!!

Cons: The pictures were somewhat misleading and not entirely accurate (the view from this room is vastly different from what one would expect from the 10th or higher floors of the same building). The couch is extremely uncomfortable. The shower is tiny. Not even a bar soap is provided. The door that divides the studio and the toilet is a louver door, so be prepared for your bathroom trips to be quite public.
Pros: The room is spacious enough for 2 to pack/unpack. The bed is comfortable. No noise issues from other units or the neighborhood. Great location for walkers/joggers.
Overall, I find the pricing reasonable.

Beautiful location. Calm, quiet, and close to many attractions. Free Parking very easy to navigate. Check in and check out went smoothly without any issues. Communication with owner was also very helpful and easy to navigate. We would definitely stay here again!!

Host was great, as was location, size & amenities. The issues were the souled carpet/rugs and the sofa broken down. Sitting on a hard metal bar. Towels were just right & kitchen utensils were good.

We loved our stay! Everything was as pictured, comfy, well equipped, and clean. The area was perfect for our family Thanksgiving getaway, away from the craziness of Waikiki but close to everything. Thank you!

The view is spectacular! The cleanliness leaves a lot to be desired, 185.00 fee isn’t put to good use! So many vertical blinds missing, the couch looks like it’s had a lot of action on it , dishwasher doesn’t look like it would work, maybe why there was only 1 pod for it. Baseboards and carpets well…. I’ll leave it there. It show very well in pictures I’ll say. It could definitely use some love. Parking is tight if you have a bigger car. Loved the area though.

Chose the property for the location and it did not disappoint. Close enough to everything but in the quiet end of things. Friendly guests would hang out with us on the patio or garden. Owner and property managers were terrific. Will definitely be back.

Perfect view of the water. Amazing on site manager Patrick who makes you feel so welcome. Out of the way from the busiest part of the beach but close enough to walk. A couple of great restaurants just steps away.

Room was spacious and clean!! Easy check-in and check-out!!Air conditioning was fast and cold. The room was very welcoming. Complimentary snacks, water, shampoo, conditioner, etc. There were extra sheets and blankets available in the room. If you forgot anything, just look around and they might have it available for you! Overall, I would definitely stay here again as it was good quality for the price and in a great location!

location and unit were great. Clean etc..The pre check in instructions/communication/requirements from Marbella Lane Mgmt were ridiculous.Selfies with my credit card, selfies with my drivers license. very inconvenient. I had to reach out and wait for a return phone call for check in instructions.

The ocean view was gorgeous and the location quiet. Much prefer staying a little further away from the noise of downtown Waikiki. Hosts were attentive and helpful. Hope to be back!

Great location, reasonable rate, gorgeous view of Diamond Head and Kapiolani park from private lanai, and nearly empty surf side lanai on ground floor. Beach access steps away, good snorkeling. There were a number of issues that I communicated with host/owner about- hopefully they will be remedied.

We would definitely stay in this unit again. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony with the beautiful fountain, and public park across the street, and watching the activity of joggers and walkers, and the wonderful view of Diamond Head. The Unit was clean and had a lot of extras, (beach chairs, beach umbrellas, small coolers, beach mat) We also enjoyed the coffee! If you’re an Elk’s member, the beautiful Waikiki Elk’s Club is a couple of buildings down the street and has good and reasonably priced food and drinks. While there is no swimming beach at the hotel, the ocean side common area patio is lovely. We walked a few blocks to the public beach and enjoyed our days swimming, reading, relaxing, and people watching.

Studio room with kitchen (no stove/oven). Comfortable bed. Less comfortable couch. Picture of ocean view is accurate but does not include all the buildings and roofs that are also part of that view. Parking garage was full but we didn't need it. Always found parking either paid (.50/hr) or free close by.

The property is not new but well maintained and clean and tidy. Well considered to stay like home having variety of goods including beach equipments. It has an electronic cooker and pans as well in the closet. It even has a first aid kit.

We visit our daughter and always stay at this property. The view from this unit is a 10. The apartment itself is very very dated. The rugs and toilet seat are ratty. Bedroom carpet dark from dirt. It really wouldnt really cost much to replace rugs, toilet seat and paint trim. It also needs a deep clean. I wiped alot of dust particles off kitchen ceiling. Lots of dust. Splatters on wall. I'm a clean freak though. I wouldn't stay in this unit again unless they updated those things.

Nice property, everything was as described. Great view and the bed was comfortable. Liked the location. Close to a lot of activities, but far enough away that it was very quiet at night.

Pretty views outside! The place was clean and met our needs. There was only AC in the bedroom so working in the main room was hot, but we were able to open the windows and get some breeze.

Wonderful location, given it is near, but not in the middle of Waikiki. Within walking distance to a lot of places. The building is dated but was clean and fairly well equipped. Host was helpful and available.

This property is great for the location, just off the busy Waikiki tourist area. But just 15 minute walk to get to the start of Waikiki.
The property is older, but fairly well maintained. Staff interaction was great. The backside of the complex has a patio area with lounging chairs, then a grassy area below. Not a good area for swimming as it has a rock cliff, but first beach is 5 away. No BBQ as stated.
The apartment itself was clean and fairly well stocked with essentials. The kitchen had needed supplies for cooking and eating for 4 place settings. Even had some spices, though when checking out, were probably not useable as seemed to be clumped from humidity.
The dining table had plenty of room around it for 4 persons.
The living room has a couch and a lounge chair. There is a TV that has Roku with limited availability. But could log in with your own account for as well as Netflix and other streaming services.
The bathroom was a bit cramped in that the shower seemed smaller than what I am used to as well as the walkway is right on top of the commode and sink when walking into. Was well stocked with extra toilet paper and extra towels and such.
The bedroom is fair size. There are nightstands on each side and a chest of drawers. The closet has hangers and also stores a couple of beach chairs as well as a boogie board and swimming equipment. The bed was actually comfortable being one that isn’t old and you sink into the middle or rock hard like sleeping on the floor.

We stayed at this property 8 years ago for our honeymoon. We have been coming back to this property every year. This was the 1st time in 8 years it was available for the week we were coming and we jumped on it. We are so glad to have gotten to stay in the same unit as our honeymoon. Sherry was wondering working with, and we will definitely be coming back.. Mahalo

We had a very nice experience at your property. The location was ideal. The communication excellent. We would definitely stay there again. My only criticism would be that the furniture (mattress and couch) are past there prime and will need to be updated. Thank you

Couldn’t have been a better location. We don’t like being in the thick of Waikiki, and this was within walking distance when we needed to go there, and handy to get to the highway when you want to explore. Large lanai for viewing the ocean, Diamondhead and Kapi’olani Park. We saw some of the most amazing sunsets ever! Mark was the best to work with, communicating in the booking process, sending us info previous to our arriving and checking with us when we arrived to make sure everything was alright. He answered the phone right away when we had a question, which hasn’t always been our experience with other rentals. Great communication!

We love this location and property management! Patrick is the best. Always so helpful. Condo space was wonderful. If I had to say anything for improvement, maybe provide dishwasher detergent. It was nice to have the dishwasher. Otherwise - awesome!!!!
