The room was exactly as described, very clean and we had a great time. The cooler, beach towels, chairs and amenities allowed us to enjoy our family trip without picking up items for the stay while at the beach. It's an older building, but well maintained inside the unit.

We stayed here for six nights in February 2026 and had a wonderful experience. The location is very convenient, and the condo has a great view. Our unit was right next to the laundry room, so be sure to bring coins and detergent if you plan to use it. Free parking is always a big plus!If you’re traveling with a family of three to four people, this place is perfect. The beds are comfortable, and the unit has been recently remodeled, so everything feels clean and updated.One small note: it takes a while for the shower water to heat up, so you’ll need to let it run for a bit, which feels a little wasteful—especially on an island.It would also be helpful to encourage guests to wear slippers or indoor shoes, or to provide slippers, to prevent dirty shoes from being worn into the bedrooms.Overall, we had a great stay and would definitely recommend this place to family and friends.

An OK stay overall

The condo was as described in the listing and it met all of our basic needs for the week. A few pros: AC inside the unit worked great, shower pressure was nice and we always had hot water, location to beach, restaurants and markets was excellent. A few cons: the clothes dryer didn’t work so we wasted money trying to get clothes dry and ended up air-drying inside the unit. Towels cannot be refreshed without a fee - it would be nice to get a fresh set of bath and pool/ towels a time or two throughout the stay, or based on nights paid. Entry/lobby, corridors and elevators really need to be renovated - the public areas of this property are very dated and made us re-think what we had booked before entering our unit upon check in. Definitely an oversight on my part, but the unit does not have a dishwasher. Not a big deal but wasn’t expecting to hand wash dishes on vacation.

Great cozy apartment!

The apartment is located in an old building, but the apartment itself has been nicely renovated. Air conditioning works great in all rooms. Noises from the town traffic are not an issue during evening and overnight. Conveniently located to walking distance from most of Waikiki amenities. Elevators take forever to go up and down, but it’s due to being part of the old building. Parking free is awesome. Will certainly stay again! As advertised.

Great stay

We enjoyed our stay. The property is older, no wow factor walking in. However the unit was very nicely remodeled. It is older and just a Fresh coat of paint and upgrades, but it was charming and cozy. One request would be more mirrors, only the bathroom mirrors with one bathroom so when four people are trying to get ready, they were doing hair and makeup out in the kitchen. It's about a 5-minute walk to Waikiki beach. Beautiful views of Diamond Head, if you are going to hike it, get a reservation early.

Nice property.

The unit was very clean. The view when opening the door into the unit is of Diamond Head through the sliding glass doors. NICE! Only negative is the sometimes long wait for the elevators. (One of the four was down for repairs when we visited). A four block walk to Waikiki Beach was a nice bonus. Shopping and restaurants are all around. We would stay here again if visiting Oahu.

Great spot for. a few nioghts

The property worked fine for our needs. Really good location, nice view. The right amount of space for our needs. The WiFi wasn't working when I arrived but they were super responsive and a guy came over to fix it right away. Total bonus points. The place smells slightly moldy. You can tell families and people who don't care about the space come through in wet bathing suits and wet feet and walk on the carpets and sit on the furniture. The place would do well with wood or laminated flooring. The place was well stocked for our needs.

Comfortable and good location

5 of us stayed comfortably in this place. Bedrooms were tight but we had enough space. Nice balcony overlooking Diamond Head was a great place for morning coffee. An easy walk to Waikiki Beach. Decent, but small, exercise room with dumbbells and a universal machine. Only minor complaint was the loud roosters every morning.

Great location, condo needs work

We loved walking everywhere and the free parking is a major plus. The view of Diamond Head is fantastic. But this condo needs a little TLC and updating. There is paint blotches, the caulking is the bathroom is laughable, the vanity cabinet is rusty, the couch is dirty, kitchen fan is broken. (don't cook bacon!) With a little work, this condo could be great! But I get the feeling it doesn't matter if people check in, check out and they get paid. On the bright side, the kitchen amenities are great. Blender, toaster, plenty of pots/pans/dishes and the outdoor barbecues are clean, convenient. Would I stay here again? Depends. Honululu is expensive, and the price was fair, given the product. I'd look elsewhere first.

Good Foundation

The property is very well located with good parking. Unfortunately, the building is undergoing major renovation and we felt compelled to leave the unit on any number of days due to high levels of noise, water shut-offs for building-wide "plumbing emergencies", etc. Also some basic maintenance items have been neglected such as non-functioning electrical outlets, non-working kitchen fan, and non-functioning smoke alarm. The dinette chairs were extremely uncomfortable. We ended up using the hardwood outdoor chairs most of the time.
