The condo is located in a fairly busy area of Waikiki and the sounds from the street and the beach can become a little amplified even inside the condo. But if quiet is what you crave, then there are earplugs or Kauai, where you can sleep all day and night. Honolulu's Waikiki district is quite dynamic and lively, and unfortunately, the noise sometimes comes with it. The building is half a block up from Kala'kaua and it's very convenient to the beaches, shopping and bars.
