The view of Diamond Head Crater from the unit was outstanding. It also has a beautiful ocean view and looks out over the tree tops at the Honolulu Zoo/Kapi’olani Regional Park. You are a one block walk from Queen’s Beach. This was a great location for us. We did not want to be in the center of Waikiki and this spot was close enough to catch the action of Waikiki without being in the middle of ongoing high rises.
The unit itself was very nice. The bed was very comfortable and the sofa was good for sitting and organizing our things. We liked having the kitchenette and all of the amenities. The patio was a nice feature and useful for drying our swimsuits and towels. They have hangers we used to dry our rash guards and a special clip laundry hanger for drying our suits.
The shower worked well. The bathroom vanity is very small, but a second mirror is provided in the hallway.
The information in the resource binder was very well presented and there are also guide books in the cabinet next to the sofa.
We rented a car after we arrived and utilized the public parking lot at the zoo, conveniently located across the street. It allows you to pay to park a car overnight. There are also metered street parking spots on Kapahulu where you can park for two-hours or all day free on Sundays.
