Highly recommend this rental ! For a couple looking for a perfect base from which to explore the Waikiki area this is the one! It's located in a well known, prestigious and centrally located hotel yet it's a very sleek, updated, well equipped unit that is very relaxing and comfortable to stay in. Unless you are planning to venture outside of Honolulu a car is not required, grab a taxi or an Uber or walk with ease! Nearby there are many restaurants and things to do and it's easy to equip your unit with food from a grocery right in the building or just venture down to the incredible Foodland in Ala Moana and be spoiled for choice! (set the table on the balcony and enjoy a meal there !) Atsuko was a great contact for us providing clear check instructions and she was easily available for queries. Also the pictures are exactly what the unit looks like. We we're happy to have ended our 11 day Hawaiian vacation here! Mahalo!
