This is an awesome place! The views in the listing are accurate (and incredible) and the lanai is spacious. The AC was too cold for me (if that's possible.) If you're sensitive to light in the morning, the blinds are a mesh and do not block out the light, however it didn't seem to bother either of us. Also the divider between the bedroom and the living area does not completely close (1-2' gap at each end,) if that's an issue for you (it wasn't for us.) The building is secured, as is the elevator.
There is a small beach out front with a vendor that can supply you with lounges/umbrellas or any beach toys you might want, and guests receive a discount. There is no pool. And the Friday fireworks are temporarily on hold (I only mention this because it's in the listing!)
You're a short walk from Kalakaua and any restaurant you might want, and can reach Waikiki beach in 10 minutes.
I would definately stay here again!
