Great unit for a stay in Waikiki! Three of us stayed in this unit and were overall comfortable and enjoyed our stay.
Pros:
- Great location! Walking distance to everything. Bars/restaurants upon exiting building, beach took us about 7-10 minutes.
- Amazing view!
- Excellent and consistent air conditioning.
- Beds/linen were comfortable, and there were plenty of bath towels (Bring your own beach/pool towels as these are not provided! I highly recommend a quick dry/sand proof towel!!)
- Lovely pool and hot tub area. The pictures display cabanas with cushioned areas but currently there are just regular pool lounge chairs. Open most of the day with 1 hour closures 3x a day for cleaning (same with the sauna and gym)
- Convenient laundry with $1 laundry soap and pay by CC
- Hotel front desk staff and security were very friendly, welcoming and helpful during our stay.
Cons:
- The unit is listed for 4 people, but the amenities within the unit are more suited for 2. The deck has a beach umbrella and 2 beach chairs for use (not useful for us as a group of 3).
- We were only provided with one dish towel and two rolls of toilet paper, again not great for a week long stay with 3 people.
- Upon multiple attempts to contact the company during the stay I was either not responded to, or not given the information/assistance I was requesting.
- We did have an issue with bugs in the unit and again with the communication with the company I received a “I’m sorry” not an offer to fix this unsanitary issue.
* Some tips for this stay:
- Like mentioned, bring your own beach/pool towel!
- There is luggage storage at the “808 Smart Car” rental located at the back of the building. 4 items for $20USD (open 8am-1pm)
