Good location, close to everything. Very clean. Only drawback is the noise of Waikiki - but that comes with the location! A few more hooks for hanging wet towels would be a bonus.

The listing of this property is exactly how it is in real life! The property manager was amazing with responding to any questions we had! The only downside was no parking included.

We loved how comfortable and cozy the condo was. We stayed for 2 weeks and it became our home away from home. The sound of traffic and sirens at night didn’t really bother us with A/C units in the bedroom that drowned it out. The condo literally is right in the heart of downtown Waikiki so we were close to everything and could just walk everywhere including the beach. We rented a car since the condo provides parking. It’s compact parking so make sure you rent a sedan or compact SUV. We will definitely would love to stay here again when we come back.

Perfect, great location. The hosts thought of everything you might need in a place.

I will start by saying that the price of this rental was not the worst, so if price is your primary concern it is worth considering. The location was also nice with lots to see and do nearby. Parking was a major hassle. The beds are rock hard. The handle in the shower is broken. The street noise is VERY high all night. The unit has almost nothing in regards to kitchen essentials. Had to buy coffee filters as there weren’t even any of those. Just generally run down with mold behind and around the sink, a heavily stained hanging ceiling in the bathroom and hot bedrooms as the AC only cools the living room and kitchen.

We received check-in and check-out instructions that contained wrong codes and information. Fortunately Julio, the property manager was very helpful and responded quickly. The property is very small and cluttered with closets full of stuff so there is no place to hang clothes or even lay out a suitcase for a couple days. Kitchen was very greasy and dirty and needs more attention. Bathroom ceiling tiles are developing some very serious black mold. As stated in the listing there is a lot of traffic noise, but we didn't realize how terribly noisy it would be 24 hours a day. Even the AC running and sound machine would not cover the street noise. We did appreciate the free parking.

There were five of us and it worked out well. Appreciated the beach chairs and towels. The views from the apartment were great (as pictured). Located close to the mall and beach. The parking for our rental was right across the street.

The condo unit is lovely, bedding and linens were clean and plentiful, beds were comfy so were the pillows they provided extra beach towels and beach toys, location is good just remember you are in the City and it’s going to be noisy, the food trucks across the street are awesome and the location is the perfect starting point for any adventures or close enough to just walk down to the beach or any number of places to eat including a market with ready to eat deli.I would recommend this unit to anyone looking for a good deal.

Our family of five stayed here for 10 days and we loved it. The room that we were in was so clean and it was very convenient for us. Loved how it came with all the cookwares and dinnerwares. Plenty of extra towels, washer & dryer on each floors. Although the noise kinda kept my kids up some nights but that didn’t stop them from loving the view.We also love the location because it was closed to a grocery store and all the food trucks. We will definitely be back for another vacation.

Really impressed with the property, and with Monica and Diana . Communication was excellent, property was clean and had everything you needed! Every time I thought, Gee I wonder if they have X (for example, a step stool for my 4 year old to use in the bathroom) they had it! Everything was thought of! There was a cooler for the beach, some toys/ beach towels in the deckbox. The kitchen had everything you could think of, including a rice cooker :) . This was great for me as I can't eat out much due to allergies!Beds were very comfortable, there were an assortment of different firmness of pillows so everyone was happy. I have three children (less than 9 years old), so they stayed in the larger of the two rooms with 2 kids in the Queen Bed and the third in the foldout cot in the same room. There was central A/C we used at night and were perfectly comfortable using just this, but there were portable A/C units if we needed more, but with the island breezes we hardly needed anything.The on-site laundry-room is very near the unit which was very convenient. The parking spot was very useful, it was secure and just large enough to fit the minivan. My tip is to get your vehicle in reverse so that it's easy getting out the next time. Location was very convenient as a base camp for getting to various locations across the island. There is traffic, at night it's too noisy to have the windows open. Early morning is OK, enjoy your coffee on the patio :)

We had a good stay at this place. It's a little bit of inconvenience to park the car to the 5th level parking lot across the street but it's great to have a parking spot. It's not a quiet place to be at night. The two bedroom place is what we need. We did not stay in the place all day everyday, we're always somewhere. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

The location was ideal; just outside of downtown and within walking distance of most things. The VRBO was as pictured.
Unfortunately, we had to wait almost an hour outside of the VRBO at midnight waiting for the host to answer our phone calls and messages. The host had given incorrect information for check-in, and once we finally got a hold of him, he did not offer an apology. Further, no information was provided on check-out, despite repeatedly asking for clarification around the same. Emails and messages were ignored, so we did what we could to check-out.
Adequate communication and proper management of check-in/out processes would have much improved our rating.

We stayed 10 nights from Dec 4-14. Condo was located in the Royal Aloha. Definitely an aged building however, this unit has been updated. It was as described, clean, and well equipped. Beds were very comfortable and as a bonus the owner provided beach chairs, sun tent and beach towels. Good location with walking distance or inexpensive Uber/Lyft ride anywhere. Overall we would stay here again.

Nice neighborhood. Staff was friendly and helpful. Perfectly located and in walking distance of beach, restaurants and shops. My family was very comfortable here. The entrance to the building does involve going up a short flight of stairs.

We had a fun stay at this condo. We had two separate bedrooms and my son slept on an inflatable full sized mattress. Location was great. We walked to middle of Waikiki within 15 minutes. Having its own gated parking space saved a lot of money. Great view of the canal and mountains from the lanai. Kitchen was well stocked and the Bathroom had plenty of leftover shampoo, soap and sunblock from previous visitors. Take a look at them before you buy anything. Shower had great water pressure and hot water. Monica was helpful with checking in. The building manager checked on us in midweek to see if we any extra towels. the laundry is available on the same floor next to our unit. 7/11 is an easy 2-3 minute walk from the building if you needed something quickly. Why we couldn’t give it a 5(I give it a 4.5 *) is two things: 1. The location and plantation and windows don’t allow for a quiet overnight. You definitely will hear loud cars and motorcycles coming down the street. I would recommend ear plugs if you’re a light sleeper. 2. The pool is pretty small and not a place the kids would want to spend time in. Overall. Great value.

The property is very welcoming, accomodating, and pretty perfect for traveling. My family and I stayed for a week and all we really needed was to buy food since we cooked most of our stay. The food trucks were very convenient also! A really nice location since its downtown and walking distance to a lot of shops and restaurants. It was very well supplied. I would definitely stay again! Highly recommended!
mosy of our stay.

The condo was clean, well equipped and very functional. We enjoyed being able to walk to beaches and shopping. It was also fun to watch the canoes in the canal and the baseball games on the field. We would return to the property if we come back to the island.

We had a flood in our condo on our first full day in Hawaii...the janitorial staff did take care of this immediately.
The "air conditioning" was ineffective and always had an error message and did not provide any cooling.
Received a message from host saying shower gel and coffee were available...shower gel was so watered down it was thinner than water. We had enough coffee to make just one pot. Had to continually ask for more toilet paper.
One plus...parking was included in fees charged, but, I recommend continuing your research.

This was our first time in Hawaii, and it did not disappoint! Location was close to everything. Laundry on site. A secure building. Communication with the owner/manager team was amazing. They were so friendly and welcoming! They were fast with every response, and checked in throughout our stay. I would highly, highly recommend this location!

AC worked great. If you looking for a quiet peaceful spot this is not for you. MANY sirens day & night. Balcony nice but if you want it for sunshine youll be disappointed. Twin beds a little lumpy. King good. Couch ok but not comfortable for long. Kitchen fantastic.

Everything was perfect from check-in to all the stuff in the condo. Our only complaint was the sound of the sirens and the vehicles, that we hear every night from the 10th floor, we got used to it after a while. Overall it was great, Dan was a good host answered all our questions. We will recommend his place if he opens it up again.

The property is exactly as described. Nice, small, convenient apartment with security and an awesome parking spot! Beds were oh so comfy and the sheets smelled really nice when we crawled in exhausted from our day's adventures. Our hosts were super-responsive when we had an issue even though it was a holiday weekend - so appreciated.
Others commented about the noise - yes, there is city noise at all hours. Waikiki is a busy area of Honolulu and noise common to larger cities (cars, motorcycles, sirens) should be expected.

We enjoyed our time in Hawaii with our three teenage daughters. This was a great place to stay and was close to everything without having to be in the middle of downtown. Having an assigned parking space was a plus! The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to prepare meals. All the sights we wanted to see were either within walking distance or a short drive away. Definitely a great place to stay!

The property is small but perfect size for my family of 3. It was located near a group of food trucks and an ABC store which made it convenient for those days that we didn't feel like driving. The exterior of the building is old but the condo was nice and clean. The host, Mae, stopped by and asked if everything was ok.
