Shane’s place is in a good location at the far end of Waikiki beach so it’s much quieter. The closest beach access is about a five minute walk or less. It’s about 25 minutes to walk to downtown Waikiki where the action is. Shane has six boogie boards and two beach chairs and a cooler bag for use as well as four beach towels which was awesome! Internet worked really well with multiple devices.
The two bedrooms are separated by a curtain but it was actually better than expected. You go through the main bedroom and to the left is a door to the 2nd bedroom. A curtain is used to provide privacy if guests in bedroom two want to leave to the living area. Both bedrooms have access to the one bathroom. Groceries are expensive , but one night out for dinner for four is about how much we spent on groceries for a week to provide all our meals for 90% of the time. There was enough cooking utensils and we managed with two pots and two pans plus a large stock pot. Pack your own condiments if you don’t want to spend money buying them for the amount you will use. We went to Costco and put ketchup, relish, and mustard in cups so we could have them with hot dogs we bought. We brought our own salt and pepper packets only to discover near the end of stay that they had some in a closet at the end of the kitchen we didn’t see. Dishwasher tablets are there but thankfully we had brought our own as we didn’t find them initially.
If you are going to be out and about most days, take advantage of free parking between 6 pm and 10 am across the street on other side of fountain. It’s 25 cents per half hour otherwise. If you want free parking you just have to go across the park.
Overall the accommodations were good for our needs. We are used to having two bathrooms and laundry within but that’s easier to find in Orlando and other cities that are more spacious and affordable. We managed with what we had which was still nice.
