Condo:
Layout and furniture as depicted in photo. Plenty of towels, bedding, etc. Overall, the condo was mostly clean and well stocked with household items, even for the beach. The condo was spacious enough for 2 adults and one baby.
However, some parts of the condo were rundown (bath tub, stained carpets/furniture), broken (window cannot be opened and one part is falling out and can not be completely sealed), or requires repair (toilet makes loud high pitch noise and required us to turn the water valve on/off after every flush - we did mention this to the property manager, who was supposed to repair it the following day but never showed up). The condo has no dishwasher, so we needed to re-wash all the dishes before use because many weren't clean.
There is a pull out sofa, but the space would be limited if in use. The sofa is also broken and slanted.
Amenities:
- Very convenient to have a free parking spot in the building.
- Laundry is on the same floor, down the hall. $2 each wash/dry (BYO quarters, the hotel won't give you any).
- Pool/hot tubs, BBQ grill, rooftop chairs/tables are available within the building. They're a bit rundown, but still convenient.
- Full cable and internet. Plus, Netflix!
Location:
About 5 minutes from the beach, but a 15-25 minute walk to the main Waikiki beach, most restaurants and shopping areas. In a quieter area of Waikiki. Next time, we would likely stay in another area because we walked back and forth several times from the main Waikiki area every day, about 20 minutes each time, which wasn't as convenient with a baby.
Overall:
The condo is as described. It suited our needs, a couple with a baby looking for an apartment living style while on vacation. However, given the cost per night, there are some things that could be repaired, as mentioned above.
