Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great little studio space. I would reccomend for 1 person but 2 if you are tidy. Great location, property was safe, well maintained, and management was great. Would definitely stay again in this room or building but reccomend a high floor to help wash out out the high volume of beach traffic and the noise they bring.

My husband and I had a wonderful stay. The manager met us upon our arrival and helped us to our room. He made the check-in process so easy. He also told us how to leave the condo when we were departing. Everything we needed was in our apartment. It was spotless, comfortable and right on the beach. Our activities were all very near the condominium. I highly recommend this unit and would stay here again. Mahalo!!

Great time at this condo! Paul answered right when I called upon landing and met us onsite to check us in. Place was clean and just as advertised, except they neglected to mention the breathtaking sunsets we enjoyed each evening from the balcony. In addition, fabulous views of Friday fireworks, New Years Eve fireworks, and marine life swimming in the water. Another plus is the proximity to the main drag for shopping and dinner. Never had more than a 15 minute walk!

I found this gem looking for options that was not the Hilton Hawaiian, even though the conference I was attending was there. When in HI, we always prefer to have a little kitchen and space to work or lounge. This spot was perfect. Not only did it meet the space requirements, it was a close walk to the HH, and other restaurants and stores. The beach front was perfect for watching the sunset. The view from this condo was amazing all the time.

January 2025

This has the perfect location to enjoy both the beach and downtown life. The beach was st the end of the building and they had chairs and umbrellas to rent for even better and relaxing beach days. Then we would walk into town for great food. Parking isn't included, but there was parking lot across the street which was a quick easy walk. They also had losing and unloading spots so you didn't have to carry all your stuff when needed.

Woke up every morning to wonderful sunrises over Diamond Head and enjoyed gorgeous sunsets over the ocean from the large balcony. The full kitchen and laundry were so convenient for my weeklong stay. And the location was perfect for visiting Waikiki.

Loved the location close to the beach, shopping and restaurants! We were able to make some meals at the hotel to save some money while on vacation. The parking spot was great to keep our rental car for transfer to and from hotel as well as day trips outside of Waikiki!

Great little condo in an amazing location. The view from the lanai is terrific - right on the beach, next to Fort DeRussy park and position A for the Friday fireworks. If you want to be close to everything in Waikiki, this place is ideal. The park is a fantastic option to relax in the shade while still being beach-side. Walking distance to lots of shopping, including Target for reasonably-priced (for the area) groceries. The condo itself is a great size for 2, well equipped and in nice, upgraded condition. Be warned, parking and renting beach furniture is expensive, as are most eateries in the area.

Can't beat the location - spent lots time starring at the view. Handy location to shops and cafes etc. It was Christmas Time so would of been nice to see a Christmas Tree in the room as we were away from home for Christmas (just a thought for next time). Also there was no where to listen to music so a little speaker would be nice also.Overall loved it thank you!

Comfortably furnished with updated kitchen, nice balcony and in excellent location. Paul was a great manager who met us promptly and assisted us with tips about the property. We had a wonderful time enjoying the beach, walkable dining, shopping and activities.

Everything was good! We enjoyed using the kitchen and laundry, the ease of getting to our room and the surrounding shops and parking was ideal, the bidet was great, balcony views front and back were beautiful, and place was clean. The bed needs to be upgraded as it was way too soft and the shower door should be replaced. All the supplies we needed were in the studio. We would come back. Thank you!

Excellent location and property. Enjoyed our stay. Nice to have parking included. VRBO better than pictured. Only reason I rated "accuracy of listing" a four star is the pictures need to be updated to reflect new TV and countertops, etc.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The place looked the same as the picture and it was easy to reach managers for inquiries. Overall it was good. However, it was unfortunate that there was some construction above the floor, drilling and hammering from 9AM and water was cut off from 10 to 3 pm for plumbing issues. Also, there was music sound from the restaurant on the main floor every night. If you are sensitive to noise I would recommend to find something else.

We could not have chosen a BETTER place to stay in Waikiki! The on-site attendants were absolutely fantastic, check in and check out a breeze - everything looked brand new from floor to ceiling. You will not have a better view of the ocean anywhere. This will be our FIRST choice again when we come back!

One of the best places we’ve ever stayed. Convenient, comfortable, easy checkin/out. They were very flexible allowing us to stay an extra night due to Delta canceling our flight.Can’t give a high enough rating. 5

The view from both sides of this unit was fantastic! Diamond Head from the Kitchen window and from the Veranda ,Waikiki beach and city skyline. Great view of Friday fireworks too. Loved the location; walking distance to shops, restaurants and of course you’re right on the beach. Also, the manager was top notch! He responded right away with all of our questions and was very accommodating! Looking forward to returning.

The room was quiet nice and the view is great. The bed needs replacing and the sliding glass door doesn’t slide easy at all. Shower valve needs some help air freshener from the toilet does not freshen the air. Small complaints. With a new bed I would be happy to stay there again.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Location was perfect for us. We are big people but we found the space adequate! Some of the utensils are showing their age ie:scratched non stick fry pans are scratched up. Paul the property manager was quick to respond for our request for more matching to replace missing wine classes, coffee cups , place mats and a vacumn cleaner. He said any further needs text message him, which I did but he never replied (the refrigerator was showing that the water filter needed replacement).the outside furniture was tattered (I understand sun and salt wreck havoc on them ) and could stand replacement. Overall a very good stay.
