Elaine’s place is situated in great location. It’s literally 2 short blocks to Waikiki Beach. Everything is within walking distance and is only a 20 minute drive from the airport and less than an hour away to North Shore & Kailua.
The ocean, city & mountain views from the room are always spectacular any time of day. Keep in mind it is in an older property, so you can hear the busy city life through the sliding glass doors if you are a light sleeper.
Pictures look exactly like the unit but the bathroom felt tight for the 3 of us, and we are small to average sized people. This would be perfect for a couple, or a family with 2 small children max. Everything is beautiful, modern & cozy and we loved the TOTO bidet toilet. The A/C is above the sectional, so if you sleep on that side of the room, you will keep cool. There is a ceiling fan in the center that is closer to the bed, so I would definitely keep both on at all times or it can get warm.
Parking is $30 a day, which isn’t too bad considering more properties in Waikiki charge a lot more for daily parking.
Kitchenette, mini fridge, microwave, plenty of bath and beach towels, beach chairs, boogie boards & a fully stocked kitchenette were great.
We didn’t use the pool amenities on the rooftop but the view from up there is worth checking out.
Elaine is a wonderful host who is quick to communicate with and had fantastic suggestions for a memorable stay in Oahu!
