The view is everything! You can see Diamond Head, all of Waikiki, and yes even whales from inside the condo, which means you have an ocean view also. The building is very secure with keyed elevators, security on property, and double lock doors. Inside the condo, it was clean with all the items you need to cook with (but we didn't cook). Bed was a little soft for my liking. Will return, thanks Jack and Mia
