This by far is absolutley as advertised. you are literally less than 5 minutes from a great beach. I do reccomend Aqua Sox as thier are rocks and coral. Janetprovides all the beach essentials like umbrella,boogie boards,floaties,etc...You are walking distance to pretty much everything Waikiki has to offer. The efficiency of self check in was perfect. I highly reccomend eating at Steak Shack and Barefoot Beach Cafe. if youdrive the island make sure to stop and eat at some of the great food trucks and get garlic shrimp or spicy shrimp. If you rent a car which I did last 2 days you can park on street between 10 pm and 6 pm no cost. This condo is situated just perfect and the washerand dryer came in so handy daily. We cooked every day with the great stove and overall just felt like a home away from. Thanks Janet we had an amazing stay.
