Overall, a very nice stay in a well-set-up 2 bedroom/2 bath condo in the heart of things. Actually, the location is less crazed than the hardcore area of Waikiki with its billion hotels and restaurants, but is still busy enough to be lively and fun, with everything easily accessible by walking, taxis, Uber, or bus. (We used them all.) Tons of restaurants within easy walking distance, and an interesting harbor and park (on the water) nearby.
The common spaces of the unit (kitchen, living room) were nicely updated, but the en suite bedroom could use a bit of modernizing, particularly the bed. Two separate a/c units were older but worked beautifully. Cool air was very welcome on some of the more humid days. The layout is ideal for two couples - the bedrooms are at opposite ends of the unit.
Best of all was the view,. The unit is on the 31st floor, and the outlook is outstanding. We spent quite a bit of time on the balcony, which has a comfy couch and chair, relaxing with a glass of wine and looking at the ocean - the moonlight reflected on the water, sailboats - all wonderfully scenic. The Friday night fireworks were a treat, and easily viewable from the unit.
Property manager Joe was responsive to any questions. All in all, a great experience in the paradise of Hawaii. Thanks, Robert and Joe.
