the photos do the view absolutely no justice. It was stunning! The decor in this unit is so awesome! We took advantage of many photo opportunities. I love all the attention to detail. The building itself is older but you don't feel it once youre in the sexy surfer condo. My husband and i had the hot tub and pool all to ourselves for almost the entire night! That was very nice, it's surropunded by enough trees that you forget you're in busy waikiki. I would definitely reccommend this unit and wish we stayed longer.
