Great location, fantastic view. Not 5 star and not really a penthouse per se, but a super little condo for a stay in Waikiki.

Pool closes at 9pm kids screaming security notify on several occasions.Cigarette smoking permitted. We were not aware this was aloud. Management notified they said nothing can be done about that.

I must have searched over 100 different hotels and vrbo's and finally decided to stay at this one. Absolutely gorgeous, incredible views, safe, cozy. Zero complaints. Josh, the host was so kind, welcoming and generous. Very easy to get a hold of. We are so happy and look forward to coming back. Mahalo!

The location is perfect. You can walk to Waikīkī beach. The view of the apartment is amazing. Although the furniture is old, is fair enough for the price we paid. The apartment had everything we expected for our vacation and we even extended our stay. I will definitely come back

The apartment had great views of the mountains, the canal and the fireworks. It was cosy for 5 of us but had a good sized lanai. The air conditioners were very loud but effective. The building itself is quite tired but the apartment itself is well appointed.

A clean, maintained studio in the 34th floor. Very close to attractions in Waikiki and near Public transport. Lots of food options around. Stay also had a mini kitchen. Overall a good place to stay for a family.

This property is secure with an insight store. Close to everything and lots of extras like beach chairs and coolers. The pool was beautiful. A little dated interior but the value was perfect. The beds are AMAZING. A good nights sleep is worth everything

We stayed on the 42nd floor so we had a pretty good view of the area. The neighbourhood is pretty convenient and it is close to all the major malls with lots of restaurant. The downside is the AC is very noisy that affected our sleep. Also there is very little outlets around the room. Overall we had a good experience.

The location of the building was convenient, close to the main street of Honolulu but on a quieter street. Our suite faced the Canal, so it was quieter.
The beach, restaurants and stores were only a couple of blocks away. Wonderful view as well.
The only drawback was the air conditioner was noisy, so had to turn it off while sleeping. There were a couple of other foibles but they were addressed quickly by the management.
Overall, I would recommend this property.

Check in process was quite easy, as all instructions are sent through an email. The building staff are friendly and willing to assist with any issues. I had an issue with my door code and they were willing to come up to look at the issue with me when I requested it. The room had many amenities such as a kettle, induction stove, coffee machine, etc. and a respectable amount of counter space for them. The sheets and pillows still had some stains. The view from the balcony is fantastic. TV, wifi, and outlets worked as intended. Geographically, it is only a 5 minute walk away from most malls in Waikiki and very close to the bus stop that can take you to downtown Oahu.

Pleasing experience overall and crazy, beautiful views from the balcony. We loved our experience here. Just a few notes:
- Cleaners were late so we had to check in later, but the hosts were amazing in accommodating a later check-out. As a side, dirty cleaning equipment was left on the balcony.
- Handsoap was not provided for bathroom sink.
- Some unpleasant smell in the bathroom.
- Rusty shower curtain rod.
- Would be nice to provide scissors in the cabinet along with other kitchen necessities.
- Providing extra, larger towels for pool use would be great.

Property was good - pool was supposed to open on the Monday but didn't open until Friday - disappointing. Contacted re a couple of problems and although they came to see them they said they would be fixed after I left....Bathtub paint was wearing off and was very slippery - should have had a non slip mat. Apart from these the stay was goodand location is great.

We stayed for just over a week. It is in a convenient location, only 2 blocks from the beach and close to all the amenities (Target, International Market, restaurant's and bus stop). The unit itself is on the 43rd floor and has the best view of Diamond Head and was clean when we arrived. Check in process was smooth. The only negative was that the pool and jacuzzi were closed for maintenance for most of our stay.

Great property! Comfy bed, no noise from other guests.
The tub was slow to drain, and the towel bar needed to be tightened , but other wise a great place and price. Would stay there again!

Josh was a great host and easy to communicate with. He was so accommodating, and made our first trip travelling with two young babies stress-free. The unit is clean, and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The awesome viewpoint and patio is an added bonus after a long day exploring Oahu. The location is great, and walking distance from several great eats, the beach, and entertainment. My entire group was very happy with our stay and are looking forward to staying here again in the future!

Great spot on a nice easily accessed property. We had an issue with our Wi-Fi during our stay, and the owner was responsive and worked with us to help. We enjoyed our daily walk to the Royal Hawaiian (pink) Hotel for a swim and a mai-tai. Will certainly stay there again!

I highly recommend this stay — the views from the spacious personal 40th floor balcony were amazing! I’ve been to Waikiki a few times through hotels and airbnbs but this was an incredible stay at a great value with a very customer-focused team who were always willing to help with whatever I needed. I’ll be using Ali’i rentals for all future stays in Hawaii.

The management company was awesome and was fast to respond to any concerns we had. The building offered a lot of convenient amenities. It had a great pool, convenience store, laundry facilities, restaurant and car rental. It was in a central location where you could walk to almost anything. The unit had a great patio but the unit itself needs a lot of updating. The kitchen and bathroom were very small and dated with no space to move around. The beds did not have conventional mattresses with no support hard to get in and out of.

Room itself is very simple but functional. Location is fantastic. Very convenient. View is unbeatable.

Overall stay was fine - the location makes it easy to enjoy a variety of activities on the island.
The cons: We had requested an early check-in, but was understandably denied as it was a day-of request and they were cleaning the unit. However, we never received our door code after a long travel day, as they forgot to send it to us. After multiple calls/texts from the front desk and I, we were sent a code an hour after the original time. Once we got into the unit, there were dried eggs on the pans from the past guest and smudges along the bathroom mirror.
It’s important to note that most tropical places have bugs, but it was concerning to find multiple baby cockroaches in the bathroom/kitchen.

An amazing experience from the start of just booking. Josh was a great host who didn't skip a beat when it came to making our stay memorable. We used who he recommended from airport to the vrbo and Nelson was great! We ended up calling him to bring us to our next stop. This vrbo is nestled perfectly in the city with amazing food options along with nice nightlife and shopping centers galore.Josh stayed in constant contact with every question I had he had a quick response. The apartment is clean and very comfortable. I would absolutely book again.

Great downtown Waikiki location with a view of the canal and ocean. It's an easy walk to everything and parking is cheaper than the major hotels. This is the second time we have stayed at one of the properties managed by Ali'i - they are very attentive and easy to work with.

We had the pleasure of staying at this property last week.
The photos are accurate, the condo was sparkling clean and the location was perfect. Hosts thought of everything in this condo from beach chairs/towels to extra spices in the cupboard. The location is safe and the condo was very quiet. I have stayed at many locations in Waikiki and I loved this one, it is a short walk to everything you need.
Joshua is a very responsive host, he was so helpful with all information and the check out process. We also had the pleasure of meeting Hana who was the cleaning person, she was so lovely and accommodating. Highly recommend this property and we cant wait to go back. Mahalo for a great week!

Property is an older style as most are. Very close to beach and amenities. No resort fees is a bonus with a top deck pool, spa, sauna and games room. TV didn't work and took me 3 days to work it out after retuning it. Some information on location, operating the TV and building amenities would be a lot better than the 12 page rental agreement. Could do with some new crockery and glasses. Plates chipped and coffee cups aged and cracked. Priced reasonable for Hawaii. Would I stay again? Probably.
