Mark's place is TRULY walking distance to Waikiki beach (a straight shot to the left about 2 blocks in very safe neighborhood)! We are a family of 4 (2 teenage kids) & this place fit us comfortably (includes pull-out couch). Views: You can see the beach (mostly the water of the beach) to your left & city to your right. Both beautiful sites.
There is coffee place on 1st floor (opens at 6 am) & a little convenient store too. However, prices may be better at Safeway (mile away or so away, but you would only want to drive to Safeway, not walk).
Mark provided, at least 2 beach towels, 2 boogie boards & stuff to play with in the sand.
There is a mail box right across the street.
The 6th floor is fantastic! There is a swimming pool, BBQ area, hot tub, basketball court (ask front desk to rent a ball for $5 per hour), tennis court & play equipment for young kids. There is 1 washer & 1 dryer on this floor (all the way to the right when walking out the door). Cost is $2 to wash & $2 to dry. Need quarters (no machine to break down your dollar bills). There is also no laundry detergent to buy (can purchase an ABC store).
One of Mark's staff met us at the front of the building & walked us up to the room. He was very kind & explained what we needed to know.
We would stay at Mark's place again! Aloha!
