Building and unit were very clean. No smell of skunky pot. 10 minutes walk to Royal Hawaiian Resort and all the upscale shopping you could want. Walk to Ft DeRussey Beach, small grocery across the street. Took bus to Costco and Chinatown. Perfect for us!

By following the check-in indication, I passed the front of the Luana Waikiki at 15:40 but I could not get the keys because the agency did not send the order sheet. The hotel assistant called the agency to send the sheet immediately by fax but it did not executed... for a while. I also tried to call the office but only the voice message... Finally, we need to wait that sheet for one hour in front of the hotel reception desk....

I have previously commented to the Property Manager that this property needs a complete "make over" with replacement of major appliances (range and refrigerator) to equal all other Captain Cook managed properties at Four Paddle. We have stayed in almost every property offered by Captain Cook at Four Paddle and this property does not measure up. The Property Manager indicated he would pass our evaluation on to the owner as it is their responsibility to upgrade the facility. We would not stay in this unit in the future unless it were to undergo a complete renovation. Unfortunately the condition of this property had a negative effect on our stay. As to the building, the new pool deck is fabulous and the remainder of the building continues to be maintained to a high standard. Also the wind this year was extreme which limited our ability to enjoy our stay completely. Next year we hope things will be different.

It’s a perfect condo in Waikiki. The apartment was clean, the neighbors never made any noise, the location is fairly quite and safe, and the price is reasonable. It's about an 8-10 minute walk to Fort DeRussey beach park, the Island Country Markets shop across the street is nice and extremely convenient, and Ala Moana is just a 5 minute drive. Over roughly a year, I found 3 small roaches - considering this is Hawaii, that's not bad at all. Very much enjoyed it here.

This was our 3rd year in this condo and once again we loved it. The location is close to restaurants, shopping and only a couple of blocks to beach. It has all the amenities you would need, albeit some items need upgrading (ie: cutlery, cooking utensils, & glassware) as are showing their age. Already booked for next year!!

The property was as described. There’s a new couch in the living room and a new furniture set was delivered on the lanai while we were there. The lanai was great with views from three sides! The time we were there in late February early March it was a little windy, so we only got to spend limited time on the lanai but it was wonderful. The two balconies are actually where we spent most of our time outside. The kitchen is well stocked on cooking and eating utensils, but I was surprised to find that there was nothing food related there such as salt and pepper or cooking oil. There was plenty of toilet paper and paper towels and coffee filters, but only one extra garbage bag for the kitchen garbage and very few dishwasher detergent packets. It is within walking distance of the beach and many restaurants and bars. We had a minor issue with the check in procedure because they were changing from one process to the other but that should be taken care of now.

Loved this apartment. We stayed for a week and the views are fantastic. There's two shops across the street if you need anything but everything is so close - you are in the heart of Waikiki and a very close walk to the beach. And to the walkway along the canal for biking, running, walking. Kitchen was stocked and manager was super helpful! Would stay again.

I always enjoy my stay at Four Paddle. I like the location of the building, a bit away from the busiest area of Waikiki. The staff of the building is so friendly and helpful. I have stayed in this studio for a number of years, and have been happy. The only problem I encountered this year was the internet. For the majority of my 6 week stay I was either without wifi or very patchy wifi which was very frustrating. Captain Cook staff and Vincent had the company come and service twice, but it continued to be a problem.

We enjoyed the location, property and view of this VRBO. Would highly recommend to others. Walk to beaches, stores - everything you need, really. Neighbors very nice and friendly in complex. Just an FYI - it is in the city so you do have some city/traffic noise but really not a big deal.

This particular unit has little to no sun because of large buildings surrounding it. No grab bars in bath tub. Toilet very low so not good for older renters. 95% who live here are older and old. Noisy because of street traffic and early morning patio/pool cleaning. Kitchen small wares need replacing.

We enjoyed the location and the great balcony. The hotel the condo is located in is well kept and the staff is friendly. The views from the balcony are great and the location is wonderful. You are close to Waikiki without being in the busy part and a quick walk to the beach.
However, communication with the management company was frustrating. Check out instructions said to get key from front desk at check in. At arrival the front desk said we needed a code for lock box. When I called they were confused, and it took about 20 minutes for them to call back with lock box code. Frustrating, but oh well. Things happen.
The condo wasn’t very clean. It has a mildew type smell when you first walk in.You can see signs of water damage along the lower walls. The AC filters need changed.The living room furniture is a bit grimy. The patio was swept and the pile of debris left in a corner. But it was also missing the hammock and all dish/ kitchen towels. There was one measuring cup… 1/3 cup. Which is not a huge deal, but weird. We didn’t do much cooking, but if you are planning to cook alot, the kitchen might not be well stocked.
Without getting into too much, I will just say that I found the management company difficult to clearly communicate with. And I was frustrated by incorrect or poor communication at the end. I am not usually one to have to ask questions or bother with hosts much. So this is not a usual problem for me.
Overall, the balcony and location made this stay enjoyable.

Location: very convenient for everything. Free parking: the deciding factor in choosing this unit, so we had freedom to explore the entire island as planned. The check-in and –out process, the pre-arrival instructions: easy to follow.
Bedroom: King bed is comfortable but be mindful of not being tripped by its leg at a very awkward corner. Kitchen: well equipped with plenty of dishes, utensils, pots and pans, an electric kettle. Bathroom: plenty of towels of adequate quality; other necessities: adequate in quality and quantity. Furniture is old but in working condition, not a problem. Very nice to have ample closet space, many hangers, and drawers. In-suit washer and dryer: easy to use, a great feature.
To be improved: The unit needs updating or even some remodeling. The kitchen faucet needs replacing. The bathroom, albeit adequate in size and function, feels like in a motel in terms of its constructional details such as moldings and caulking. The shower head and/or faucet in the tub that drips all the time needs replacing. Replace the big corner cabinet in the bedroom, a potential liability. Not a big issue: We were just surprised to find a popcorn (asbestos) ceiling, popular about 50 years ago.
Overall, we enjoyed the stay. Thank you!

Great location. The room is a little dated, but the location is great for easy access to Waikiki. The beach is a longer walk through busy streets but is not hard. The parking spot for the unit is a tight fit and against a wall so I would not recommend a larger car to park there.

The descriptions and pictures depict the condo perfectly. We enjoyed every morning and evening on the lanai, which you had a straight on view of the ocean to our surprise. Beach chair were a nice bonus, and we added a boogie board to the next guest. A couple of annoying maintenance issues. The front large element on the stove did not work along with the outlet you would use to charge your devices. Also, you might want to watch your toes when walking around the bed. We finally laid a blank around the legs of the bed to soften the impact to our toes. Otherwise, we could not be happier with our experience. The residence were nice and used the patio. The pool was under construction during our stay, which we were aware it would be closed when we booked. I would recommend to all my friends.

Loved staying here, since its very walkable. Love the parking garage and washer dryer in unit is a plus. Id definitely stay here again. The only thing that bothered us was the carpet, they definitely need a cleaning. The AC was very good and worked well but it was intermittent one evening and the building mgmt fixed it the following morning. Also I personally never saw a roach in our unit (for those who read the other reviews.)

Cons: Carpet was stained and dirty, apt had not been cleaned from previous tenant so we had to wait 2 hrs for housekeeping to clean it before we could check in.
