This place was awesome for our week-long stay in Waikiki. It was myself and two little kids (3&6) and the location was beyond perfect! We could walk to the beach in less than 2 minutes, the zoo was right across the street (they let you leave and come back so we headed to the rental for lunch and went right back to the zoo- it is that close!). The aquarium is within walking distance as is pretty much everywhere you want to visit near Waikiki Beach. The kitchenette is totally adequate and I cooked almost every meal there (there is a grocery about a mile away that made dining in easy). The beach gear was heaven sent! Beach umbrella, towels, sand toys, snorkel gear, etc! We even used the umbrella on a rainy day! The building is a lot older than the pictures make it seem but the reception area/receptionists were incredibly nice and helpful, the room was clean, well equipped and quiet. I was worried about noise but it wasn't an issue at all. The pool was never busy but very cold! This place was great and I'd recommend it! I hope we can come again!
