The first thing that I want to say is that I would highly recommend this spot to anyone. It is a great fit for 2 adults and 1 child at most. The views were great and the amenities were everything that you need on a vacation to Hawaii. Nami provides beach towels, thermal bags, a laundry basket, waterproof phone cases, beach umbrella, snorkeling gear, toothbrushes, toothpaste, waters, Hawaiian chocolate, lots of extra Keurig pods, aloe for sunburns, and all the other basic essentials such as an iron, blow dryer, a Toto toilet, a heater, and an a/c.
The space is extremely safe as you need a key fob to be able to go up and down the elevator. The building also adds mirrors around each corner so that you are able to see what is coming. The space is also on the 2nd to the highest floor of the building and has a balcony where you can see amazing views. The balcony was perfect for my girlfriend and me to eat our breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
Nami was an amazing host who always replied to all of my questions within an hour or even faster, if she was unable to reply she would let me know ahead of time. I am so grateful for how nice and understanding she was when I accidentally spilled soy sauce on the beach towel. Nami also even offered to hold my bags for me before I even stayed at her Airbnb - I was scared of bringing all of my bags and suitcases around Oahu as sometimes there are thieves who love to break into visitors’ cars (SO BE CAREFUL).
The parking garage below does get full fast, does NOT allow ins and outs, and has an EXTREMELY (5’9) low ceiling clearance. It was no problem as I just paid $27 for parking down the block at Waikiki Banyan, which does allow ins and outs, overnight parking, and has a decent ceiling clearance (I want to say 6’3 or higher, it fit the 2021 Jeep Wrangler that I rented). I would recommend getting here before the parking lot gets full. My girlfriend and I were busy all day in the North Shore and finally got back to Waikiki around 8 pm and the lot was full. There isn’t much to do outside of Waikiki past 6 pm, so you’ll most likely be back before then anyway.
The last thing was just the water pressure in the shower was very weak. There was scheduled water maintenance while I was there so maybe that was the culprit. Beautiful looking shower but the water pressure was not strong enough to occupy 2 people. I would not let any of this stop you from booking this place though. It is really a great bang for your buck. As everyone before me has said - amazing location, sparkling clean, great host, quick responses, cozy, and definitely was blessed to find this spot!
