This is a great place to stay if you want to be around all that Waikiki has to offer!! And now with the stuff that really matters. The elevators (4) will take roughly 10-20 minutes to get to you during normal hours 7am-9pm 38 total floors, so plan on long wait times. There is a store downstairs in the lobby that was open from 7am-10pm when we stayed and it carried a lot of stuff and has really nice owners operating it. The unit itself is very roomy and has a great view of the pool and half of Diamond Head "nestled" between two massive complexes across from your patio. Warning, the complex on the right has super bright lights so forget about sleeping with the shades or curtains open, its like a massive marquee lit up all night right into your bedroom window and living area. Having the parking is great because it is impossible to park anywhere up or down Waikiki beach. The unit is actually 1 block away from the beach, Not Waikiki beach..No...that is another 2-3 blocks up from the beach (kids lagoon) that you walk down on. The pool is small but adequate and security spends a lot of time telling kids and adults what they can and can't do in or around the pool and hot tubs all day, so you will never feel lonely. I never cooked a single meal in the unit but it seemed to have a decent inventory of cookware if we needed it.
If I ever have the desire to visit and stay in or around Waikiki, I would defiantly consider staying here again.
