Merbella's place was in a perfect location just minutes from Diamond Head, Manoa Falls, and a short walk to Waikiki beach. We particularly enjoyed that it wasn't in the dead center of Waikiki beach so the beach closest wasn't nearly as busy and we had a quicker getaway when we wanted to explore more of the island. Great place to stay if you want home base to be central or in Waikiki during your stay.
