A very responsive host which is big for me and her place worked out great for us. She provides all things needed for a stay from kitchen, bathroom, bedroom extras to outdoor play. We don't typically stay in Waikiki, but this end was quieter and the ocean view/canal view was very nice :). We were there for the Honolulu Marathon and so this put us in full view of the fireworks and start of the race which was so much fun! It starts early enough that there were not any traffic issues for us at all. Also, all the shopping and restaurants and last min store needs very much nearby.
