Just spent 8 nights here, and I highly recommend it!
Kris is a wonderful host who provides excellent communication. Check-in/Check-out procedures were very detailed and very easy to follow. The pictures are 100% accurate – no surprises.
Condo is clean. VERY CLEAN. If you are a neat person, you won’t be disappointed.
Location is awesome – just a couple of blocks from the beach. 5 minute walk puts you at the beach to watch the gorgeous sunset and/or grab a bite to eat. ABC store is between condo and the beach.
Views from the balcony are beautiful & a peaceful way to start each morning. Look forward towards the ocean, or look left and see Diamond Head.
Full kitchen provided everything we needed. It was nice to enjoy breakfast inside each morning – and that really saved us some $$$ as well.
Laundry facilities are located at the end of the hallway and they are for use of anyone on the floor.
As noted in the listing, the rate included ALL TAXES and came with FREE PARKING. When traveling to Hawaii, you’ll find both of these to be huge money saving perks!
Other reviews have mentioned slow elevators. We only experienced this at peak times of the day – no big deal for us.
The condo is located on the edge of town. We found this desirable because the car traffic in Waikiki can be very heavy at times. The unit is high enough off the ground that traffic noise was not an issue.
Beds in the bedroom were very comfortable. No issues sleeping. The couch in the living room is listed as a “pullout twin bed”– and I guess technically it was a bed. However, I never figured out how to pull out anything though. Instead, you remove the back two vertical cushions and sleep on top of the horizontal cushions. Sheets and blankets were provided for this. My son slept on that couch and said he slept good. He’s not that tall, so he fit okay. A taller person may have issues sleeping on this particular couch/bed.
Wi-Fi works great. There is also a nice pool area to use. Within the building, there is a Mart to purchase any sort of supplies you may need. They have a selection of food/drink in there as well.
In closing, 4 people stayed here very comfortably for 8 nights. We had plenty of space to relax/unwind in. It certainly was way better than staying in the standard 1 room hotel with 2 beds and a bathroom. How boring would that have been?!? This place is MUCH NICER!!!
We loved staying here, Kris is an EXCELLENT host, and I would not hesitate to stay here again in the future.
