The unit is exactly as described and depicted in the description. It has fantastic views of Diamond Head and the ocean. I loved sitting on the balcony and feeling the trade winds! Check in and out was easy and communication was great. Kitchen was well equipped. No complaints here, and I hope to stay here again in the future.

This location was absolutely perfect. Close to everything yet just set back enough to not be overwhelmingly loud. We slept peacefully! The host responded very quickly and was so kind! Definitely will book again when we come back!

Everything was great. I appreciated the sun chairs and the mini/travel cooler. Welcome snacks and shampoo/ conditioner were also great. Would stay again for sure

It was a great place for your vacation. The view was beautiful, great location with restaurants and shops nearby, the beach is literally a 5 minute walk. The only downside is that the pool and bbq deck was closed for renovations, however I was informed ahead and was offered a discount for the inconvenience. Other than that, the experience was wonderful and we had a great time there. Would definitely recommend this place and Midway Vacation as a company.

Unit was very nice and clean. Good parking and very convenient. Kitchen well equipped. Building amenities under renovation, so no place to relax outside of the unit. Other common areas in the building were old. Lot of noise due to the pool deck renovation. Some blackout shades would be helpful.

The condo was exactly as shown in the photos—clean and well-kept. Management was easy to deal with and clear about expectations. Great location within walking distance to surf spots, a Kona coffee shop, and a good grocery store. Would stay again.

Location, location, location. Property is right off the main beach drag and easy access to Waikiki. Host was responsive to inquiry while here. Very clean and comfortable.

I was very pleased with everything about this property!! My daughter lives on island so I have stayed in various places over the years. Navigating parking was a breeze and the check in process was the easiest I have encountered. The property was immaculate and spacious. The kitchen is well supplied. It’s walkable to many restaurants but not quite as hectic as other parts of Waikiki. I will definitely stay here again!

We enjoyed our stay. The condo was clean, and the location was great. I offer two recommendations. 1) change the shower curtain to a sliding shower door; 2) Sliding door to lanai needs minor maintenance and adjustment so that it can open and close easily.

This condo is just as described in a great walkable location to many things. It's close to the beach and has beach chairs, at least one umbrella, and lots of other water equipment. It is well equipped inside with everything you would need, especially in the kitchen. The bed is very comfortable. The condo has a great layout for a couple. The owner and manager were both very quick to respond to any questions. A tip: since this is on floor 21 in a 37 floor building, build in 5-8 minutes to any coming and going if it's time critical. The elevator ride might take some time.

We love this place. The owners are very thoughtful and have prepared all the necessities for us, including boogie boards, beach chairs, umbrella, etc. The condo is beautiful and is nicely located. The best part is the included parking, which is an absolute plus while staying in Waikiki. I would definitely stay there again if we go back next time.

Overall, this was a good location and with parking it made for a great time while in the area. The only issue, and this is not the fault of the renter, is the elevator and if all units were in operation. Too often, either the cars were completely full or there was only 1 elevator working. So, we adjusted to avoid busy times in the morning and around dinner time. Otherwise, we had a great time.

The property as a whole was fine. Quick walk to the beach and the main street in Waikiki. I would stay there again, we just picked a bad time, hotel renos leaving no pool makes all the difference in a holiday especially if you aren't a big fan of swimming in the ocean.The view on the listing is from the kitchen window. You can only see the ocean if you sit at the dining room table (one person view). I have 2 suggestions: If you have anyone staying more then a week you should have an automatic cleaning done at least once. The towels build up and are wet sitting for that long in the bathroom as there is no where else to but dirty laundry. Also you have what could be a great view to wake up to in the morning if you just switched the bed and dresser around, seems like a wasted view the way it is currently set up.The owners seem nice and were very quick to help with any questions we had. We really appreciated that!

First time visitors to the islands, Oahu was our first stop. Condo was just as pictures and description state, includes free covered parking, unit was recently renovated, clean, an awesome balcony that overlooks the ocean and DiamondHead. Perfect for relaxing as well as enjoying both sunrise and sunset! Location is an easy 5 minute walk from Waikiki Beach to enjoy the water, sunsets, restaurants and shopping, plus quick access to the freeway for sightseeing around the island.

I have stayed at the Waikiki Banyan many times, because it is centrally located and one of the rare places in Waikiki that offers free parking onsite. I have to say that the view from this unit is the best I've ever seen, with expansive views of Diamond Head and the ocean (not just a little tiny sliver of ocean that you have to peer over the Lanai wall to see). Because it was located very high on the 35th floor, it did cut down a little bit of the street noise that is omnipresent in any place you stay in Waikiki. Also unique about this place was that it offered several seating options for multiple guests, and two queen beds, which is very rare. They also had a plethora of delicious snacks and water waiting for us, as well as a wide variety of cutlery, utensils and dishes. There were also toiletries like mosquito repellent, after Sun aloe vera gel, shampoo, conditioner...and best of all, a bidet!Also included were beach chairs, beach towels, and umbrella. Plenty of towels and linens and extra blankets. Overall, I would highly recommend this place.

We have stayed here in the past and it is a solid location, property and price. We love the free parking pass and that we can save money by eating at “home” so close to the beach.

Room was not bad. Noise travels within the unit - didn’t love the bathroom situation. Elevators take a while due to construction so be mindful.

This is a lovely condo, in a great location near multiple restaurants and only a block from a calm water beach, and with a very friendly and helpful host. AND, you can’t beat the view. Grab it if it’s available!

Couple blocks from the beach with awesome view from bedroom and living room. Corner unit with more space than others. Walking distance to Me’s BBQ, Musubi Cafe Iyasume and a lot more.Place needs another mirror besides in the bathroom.Needs extra rolls of bathroom tissue without needing to ask for it. Need pest control service more often with having kitchen in most of the units.

This is our third stay in the Waikiki Banyon, each time a different rental property. We had initially rebooked a corner unit that we had stayed in last summer, however the unit sold right before our scheduled trip. Luckily this unit had the dates available, and at a discounted price due to the construction/remodeling on the 6th floor (BBQ & Pool area). Yes, the construction was loud, however the unit made up for the inconvenience. Listed as "recently remodeled" - it certainly lived up to it's pictures and description. Location was ideal, unit was up to date, modern, and very clean. Beds so very comfortable! AC unit hummed softly and didn't leak water on the floor in prior units. Kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. Plenty of towels, beach gear, even games. We look forward to booking this unit again on our next trip.

I stayed here for 8 days with my three children. This unit could easily sleep 5 people. The location is great! 5 mins to the zoo and beach. Mark was amazing to deal with. They received last minute notice that the pool would be closed and offered a partial refund.I wouldn't slip the room divisor a it doesn't functional well but everything else was great. The fridge had a sticker on it and appeared to be brand new.*the tower you need to use is to the right when you arrive* don't be like me and try to get into the wrong unit.

Very nice ground floor unit. Not much of a view (parking lot). It was well stocked with little things in the kitchen that former guest had left behind. It was very convenient to have the grocery store across the street. I loved the location. Easy to get around the island if you have a car. The pool is a very nice and spread out. Bed was very comfortable.

Stayed for 9 days and was very happy with the property. Condo was clean, comfortable, well equipped, convenient location with amazing views.Pros:* Great location with beautiful views* Clean and comfortable* We didn't do a lot of 'cooking' but the condo was well equipped with everything you would need* Parking included was BIG and super convenientNeutral:* Being on the 28th floor had it's challenges. Being up so high provided great views but, for me personally, made me uncomfortable out on the lanai. Not an issue with the property, just something to consider if you don't like heights* Timing of elevators and process to get in an out could be frustratingCons:Not many * Had a couple of blips with the condo (broken beach chair and battery failure on the door lock to enter the condo). Property management was responsive so we were no overly impacted* The 6th floor recreation deck (pool, lounge) was undergoing renovations the time we were there and was unavailable to use (also loud construction). Would have been better if we had been informed of this earlier, and had a potential price discount as the features were included in the listing.

This condo was very clean and photos were accurate. The kitchen was functional. The bed was very comfy. Just a short walk away from the beach. If you are an early riser you can see some amazing sunrises from the deck. FYI, the pool and surrounding amenities are currently closed.

We stayed in the Plumeria suite for 5 nights. The unit was just as pictured. The unit was so well stocked with everything we needed and the location was great for pretty much everything we wanted to do. There are so many great restaurants in the area (walking distance). We really loved Hula Grill and the Poke Bar (on the corner). You could see the Friday night fireworks from the beach which was a short one block walk from the unit. If I had to pick a downside to the unit (and there really wasn't a bad thing about it) is that it is a little tight for a family of four, but we have a very tall teen son and an adult daughter who is disabled so finding room for our luggage and her wheelchair was a challenge. Again, part of the challenge for storage was that there are so many useful things in the condo. Overall, the management company was a dream to work with. They kept us informed of any changes with the building and all instructions were very clear. The condo is clean and stocked with everything you could possibly need and the view from the balcony was beautiful. This place is such a find for a great price. I would absolutely love to stay again!!!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful Vrbo, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment I arrived, the space felt so homey and inviting — it was like stepping at home. Every detail, from the comfortable furnishings to the thoughtful touches around the home, made it clear that a lot of care had gone into creating a welcoming atmosphere.The host was incredibly kind and communicative, making sure I had everything I needed for a perfect stay. The bed was super comfortable, the kitchen was well-stocked, and there were even little extras like local coffee and cozy blankets that made it feel extra special. It was the perfect place to relax after a long day of exploring.I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful, charming place to stay. It truly felt like a home away from home!

The property was as advertised. We could see the waves on Waikiki. Walking distance to the ocean. Everyone was friendly and quickly responded when we had issues or questions. WIth four adults, we could have probably used another small chair in the living room area.

We had a delightful stay. Perched high above the city, the top floor corner location has a commanding view and invites the tradewinds in for lovely cross-ventilation. Even on the 38th floor, the street noise was a bit much at night so we closed them and ran the A/C. The location is super convenient to the park, beaches, Diamond Head, shopping, restaurants, etc. It's uncommon for guests to cook in this kitchen but we did. It is fairly well equipped and we made some tasty meals and enjoyed them on the balcony. There is no dishwasher but that wasn't a problem for the two of us. The pool/spa deck recently closed for renovation, and also the BBQ grills, which was a little disappointing but we came for the beach, right? Marilyn, the host, is super attentive and helpful. We definitely recommend this place

Location is good for walking to beaches, parks and eateries. Views of Diamond Head and ocean are nice from the unit. Unit was comfortable, but could be cleaner. Parking was convenient. It was nice to have beach chairs. Amenities (pool, bbq grills, etc) were unavailable. This was very disappointing and the cost for staying should have been reduced to reflect the inconvenience.

This condo is centrally located in Honolulu, less than two blocks from Waikiki Beach. It’s an easy walk to the beach, and all of the enticements of Waikiki!The unit is located on the 34th floor of Tower 2, and the unit and lanai face Waikiki Beach, a real plus if you are interested in views. Kitchen is well stocked with pans/pots and utensils. Parking is included and we never had difficulty locating a good parking spot.Communication with the owner and the management company was seamless with quick responses. My wife and I were very happy as we had to contact the owner and the management company to answer some quick questions. The only issue we encountered was the pool and recreation deck (pool and BBQ) was not available due to renovations (mid-April 2025 till ?) and it would have been nice to know this beforehand as we use the pools and BBQ’s when we stay at various locations. If having a pool is important to your stay… please take note and plan accordingly.All other aspects of our stay were very acceptable. Proximity to the beach and Waikiki is unbeatable.

Easy check in to a beautifully presented property, close to beach, restaurants and food trucks.Fully stocked kitchen with a nice little welcome package. Boogie boards, beach chairs and towels all provided.Swimming pool was under renovations which would have been nice to be made aware of prior to our stay but out of owners control. Owner was easily contactable and made the whole process stress free.
