Very nice view of Waikiki beach from the 28th floor. Aqua Island colony is located 2blocks from the Royal Hawaiian mall. Very convenient location. Room is clean and bedding is very comfortable specially with the ac unit in the bedroom. It could get hot in the living room without ac, there is a fan provided. You can open the living room window to let the sea breeze in. Gavin is very responsive, he answered all my e-mails prior and during our stay. One of the key fob stopped working and he was able to activate a new one right away. If you plan to do laundry you have to buy a laundry card for $5 just for the card itself and load the card for laundry credit. We got to see the Hilton Hawaiian Village fireworks from our bedroom, which is nice. Parking is free which is a plus, only minus is that the Royal Kuhio parking area seemed a bit shady at night time.
Overall we had a great stay!
