This was a great place to stay. It was walking distance to everything in Waikiki. The host was super chill and easy to communicate with. This place was a huge plus because it came with a parking stall. I think the only con was that it could get a little noisy in the morning. You can hear other people opening the sliding doors to the balcony.I would stay here again and highly recommend it.

Apartment was clean and walkable to restaurants and shops. Was a bit confused re instructions to check in in terms of temporary parking but there was someone on duty to help.The parking spot itself is very tight and just about coped with a mid size SUV. Would def not work for a full size or bigger. See pic.The noise does travel, so even though it’s a high floor we could hear the traffic etc. Also whoever was above us decided to open and close their balcony doors from 5am. But this might be a temp resident so luck of the draw. I would say the whole building could do with a revamp in terms of the patio doors.

Great location that's walking distance to food, shopping, and the beach. The unit is above a restaurant and bar near intersection, so be prepared for a moderate noise level. The parking space is a nice plus. Overall, it was perfect for my short stay.

This was comfortable clean property that was perfect for my husband and me. It didn’t have beach towels and beach chairs like some condos do but that was reflected in the low price I think. We had a great time and wished we could stay longer.

Great Location and Free Parking. Be prepared for a not spotless room and having to do AC maintenance. Bedding may or may not fit the bed. Not enough racks/hooks for towels for more than 1 person. AC is loud but it does help drown out the outside noise as it is not a soundproof room. Balcony table is too large. Fine for 1 person but if a second person has to get to a chair or if you want to get to the drying rack, good luck. If you just need a place to rest, aren't a light sleeper, FREE parking in the heart of Waikiki and don't mind cleaning when you arrive and maintenance of the AC, absolutely stay here and spend your money you saved on fun stuff. If you want a spotless, quiet hotel room with maid service and 24/7 concierge, this is not the place for you. I would definitely stay here again by myself for work. Would I bring my husband? Probably not because he would not be happy about having to do a "chore" with the AC.

great location. 7 min walk to waikiki beach. also comes with parking which is a big plusone thing to note it is a busy street gets noisy at night, so bring a pair of earplugs and white noise to help minimize the noise

The Marine Surf Waikiki is a well kept property. The room we stayed in had a great view. It could use some room darkening curtains and a dresser that the drawers pull out easier and don’t fall out if pulled too far. Overall I would stay here again.

Bathroom door super noisy, shower head not very good, It had only one old beach chair that was not much fun to carry to the beach, we left one there that we bought ourselves but it is cheap and will not last long.

After a long 10-hour journey, the last thing we wanted was to deal with inaccurate check-in instructions and unresponsive property management. The email we received did not include the code for the lockbox, leaving us unable to access the condo. Security was unable to assist, and we were left waiting over an hour for a response from management.Once inside, we were disappointed to find the condo not the cleanest - floors felt dirty. The mattress was extremely uncomfortable, seemingly broken, causing a noticeable sinkhole effect. Additionally, the listing advertised two sets of snorkel gear and boogie boards, but only one of each was available — and we had to dig through a messy, unpleasant closet to find them.The only positives were the free parking and the convenient location near Waikiki. Unfortunately, this experience was a clear case of getting what you pay for.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was the perfect place for me to stay for my weeklong vacation! Having a kitchen and free parking were the biggest perks of this rental. The parking was super convenient and the space was one of the first in the garage so it was easy to quickly enter and exit the garage. The kitchen was perfect. I didn’t cook but the freezer was perfect for me to pack my cooler for my long beach days. The rental was very clean. I found the bed to be comfortable and the shower was great. The rental is exactly as it appears online and I found it to be a great value.

Overall, a nice stay. The property is located centrally in Waikiki close to many stores, restaurants and beaches. I would recommend with disclosures for that guest to make their own choice. Its plainly decorated, did not care for the furniture but the bed was comfortable. A/C unit very loud. Sometimes street noise is heard all hours of the night. It would be nice to have (in the unit) other towels and chairs/umbrella for the beach, as well as an umbrella as rain is likely. Theres a nice city view. The round table is too big on the balcony- a smaller rectangular seems to make more sense. The property is managed by a realty office that closes 4-5pm and could be a concern for issues that arise, and they can't help you. Finally, additional feedback. leave a key with reception for emergencies after Realty hours. Reception indicated other units leave keys.

This is incredible value—literally 3 minutes to the main drag that takes you to Waikiki beach (7 minutes). The unit is airy and has lots of light, is very good sized and has a super comfortable and big bed. The cute little balcony is nice to hear the sounds of the city. Instead of spending 600 a night for a comparable hotel room, we used the savings to enjoy the very fun (and very expensive) restaurants and bars in Waikiki

We had friends stay in 2 other similar fully renovated units in this building for the same price. This unit is very worn, should be updated as most. Of the unit is drom the 80’s at least. I recommend choosing a different unit.

I would have settled for less for the perk of free parking and the central location. But the unit itself was excellent, spacious and clean. We like to walk so it was great to have everything within walking distance including the beach. It was also easy to get to the freeway to explore the island.

Great location. You can walk to anywhere in the immediate city. Noise level is appropriate for the city location. Air conditioning very noisy, old and filthy. I cleaned the filter and wiped out as much mold as I could. Emptied the water pan was a messy job that a frailer individual could not handle. The place was tidy but not clean and there was an over growth of mold. The furniture is also weathered and the pictures are of a newer time. The bed is comfy for a back sleeper but not a side sleeper. There is limited drawer space as quilts and towels fill the drawers. WiFi did not adequately work. So forget using WiFi. The TV channels are very limited as well. Great place to rest and explore from there!

My Girlfriend and I had a wonderful 5 night stay at the Ocean and City renovated Marine Surf Waikiki condo! With just a short walk to Waikiki Beach, we rarely used our rental car. Everything we needed from surfing, swimming, restaurants, and shopping was all in walking distance. Nella with customer surface was awesome and made everything so easy!The unit was just as described! Super clean and well put together. It was equipped with all the essential cookware & dishes, and even had a little day cooler for us to use as we went out for a picnic.The one heads up would be the parking. There is a 6ft clearance in the parking garage (as was described) but the parking stall itself (for unit 2103) is in the corner and does not provide such clearance. An SUV, Jeep,etc. would not fit well. We lucky had a Nissan Altima and snugged in all good to the spot.We had a Great experience from start to finish! Thank You Verbo, and everyone involved in making our stay so memorable. Josh & Kelly

Overall, it was a pleasant stay. The conco showed some age and wear and tear but it was clean and efficient. Easy walking distance to the beach. Plenty of places to eat near-by. The only negative was the noise of garbage trucks at 5:00 am waking us up almost every day. This is not a condo issue but a Wakaki issue. I’m sure they could be heard anywhere on Wakaki.

Overall, great place to stay if you plan to be outdoors for majority of the day. Pros:Location is ideal and dedicated parking with no hassle to go in and out. Great experience walking around Waikiki. Plenty of towels in the unit. And house slippers were provided. Lanai was great to dry clothes.Cons:- Bathroom could be cleaned better, specifically the shower curtain.- City noise was very loud and had to use headphones to sleep.

Nice place. However there were tiny bugs crawling all over the kitchen and bed side table and floor. I cleaned the kitchen counters many times a day to try and get rid of them but they just kept coming. They were all around the sink and dishwasher too. When I opened the dishwasher they were on the clean dishes. I just decided to keep cleaning them up and deal with it, but it was pretty gross. Other problem was there were no pool towels and the toilet paper holder was falling off the wall so we couldn’t use it. Aside from that the place was nice.

PROs*We thought the location was fabulous. Close to so much. Although very noisy. *Swimming pool was great *Bed was comfortable*Beach chairs and beach towels provided *Laundry in building*Parking spot CONs*Communciation with Host was lacking or very delayed*Shower drain was not functioning. Took 6 days to get a plumber in and it still didn’t work after that. It was extremely gross for the duration we were there (15 days)*Air conditioner was nonexistent. Was more used for airflow at night. *Kitchen lacked cooking supplies. We booked a VRBO so that we could save money on eating food out. We were restricted with what we could make. There was no cooking pans for the oven, 1 pot and 1 frying pan. *Only one fob to get in and out with.

Great location, close to restaurants, shopping, beach etc. Parking spot very handy. Great view of the Friday night fireworks. We are 2 seniors & booked for 16 days.Arrived on Jan 5/25 & phoned the Management Company (MC), followed up by texting pictures & followed up usually daily for the following issues:- Dining room stool needed screws tightened. It would have broken if sat on. Fixed on Jan 9th- Air Conditioner filthy. Jan 6th cleaned & disinfected- The bathroom vent was also full of dust & the floor wasn’t clean. No response on this- Fridge didn’t work. Freezer did. Jan 9th someone came & check it out. needed a new fridge. Jan 11th MC had a new fridge but were waiting for building maintenance to pad elevator. Jan 13th elevator was padded, which I let them know. Jan 16th, we received the new fridge. I asked for compensation starting on Jan 11th- Curtains filthy large area. No response on this.- Broken beach chair. Jan 6th removed it & replaced Jan 9th- The Lanai chairs were falling apart. Replaced Jan 9th.Texted to MC on Jan 6th- There were no sink stoppers for the kitchen and bathtub. Received Jan 6th- Shower curtain was moldy. Replaced Jan 6th- No tea towels.

Very well-worn unit for a penthouse. Adequately spacious for 3 guests, any more people and it would feel cramped. Location was great for ease of walking but extremely noisy inside and out.

Just as an FYI for people who might rent this place and have a rental car: google maps will always keep trying to get you to go to the wrong entrance, but you have to go in via seaside avenue, which is a one way street, so a bit tricky until you get used to it.

We really liked how close we were to shops, restaurants and the beach. Everything was a short walk. We felt like we were central to everything we wanted. Also, really liked that a parking space came with the unit.
