In our first visit to Hawaii, my husband and I stayed in Chin & Twu's condo at the Aqua Aloha Surf Hotel in Waikiki for 5 nights. The highlights of our stay were: 1) Twu and Chin are friendly, excellent hosts who go out of their way to ensure you have a great time in Waikiki. We participated in their Waterfall hike, which was fantastic, 2) The condo is a 5-minute walk to Waikiki beach, a must-do in Oahu, and 3) There is a variety of shopping malls, restaurants, and historic sites within walking distance, and 4) This condo is a great value for money, as long as you're not expecting anything fancy.
I would highly recommend this condo.
