The Beachcomber has all the essentials you need for a beach vacation in Waikiki. As a studio, space is a bit limited but still completely functional. The building is right in Waikiki and walking distance to many good restaurants and the shops and Waikiki beach. Heavenly Island Lifestyle cafe in the hotel next door was one of our favourites and we went there many times. As others have mentioned, there is daily live music at the bar down the street, and it does end promptly at 10 pm, but it can be disruptive if you're wanting to have some quiet time earlier in the evening. At least most of the bands are decent cover bands. There can also be noise from rowdy night owls and music from passing cars and there was a garbage truck that came promptly at 5 am every day. That is my only complaint about the location. The studio itself is as pictured. The building is a bit dated. The unit was very clean and tidy. Tom is an excellent host, incredibly responsive and provided an extensive list of helpful recommendations for a variety of activities and dining.
