What an excellent place to stay in Honolulu! The beach is a less than ten minute walk away, there is a grocery store just as close, and the apartment is spectacular! The view from the porch is beautiful and makes for a wonderful reprise when not at the beach! Watching the waves from afar is just mesmerizing! And in looking the other way you can see some mountain ranges begin! The entire apartment was sparking clean. Vicki was a wonderful and gracious host who helped us with anything we needed! An excellent example of a great Airbnb host! I highly recommend this place to anyone looking to stay in Honolulu! I do want to point one thing out to potential renters, and this is in no way a slight to the apartment, but the apartment is located on a high floor in a high rise, and if the elevators happen to be out of service, you will have to walk a good number of flights, so if anyone in your party in handicapped, this is something you should consider before renting. Another heads up to potential renters - since this apartment is so close to the beach, you can walk along the beach and stop at many of the amenities at the resorts located along the beach; we frequently found ourselves at Duke’s for their excellent breakfast buffet and renting their beach cabanas for a perfect view of Diamondhead! This apartment made for the perfect getaway, we highly recommend this apartment!
