This was an excellent Airbnb for a week. The location is prime. It’s the edge of Waikiki near Diamond head and Kapuhulu.
Food options are prime. Tonkatsu Tamafuji (need a month reservation before), Leonard’s, Rainbow Inn right next door, Sushi Ginza Onodera, tekkuri tei, and a 7 eleven with good prepped meals are just a few examples of restaurants to go to in the area.
It’s a brisk walk to Waikiki proper, but I suggest you rent a car for Oahu anyways. Highly recommend walking down Ala Wai Blvd for a nice view of the river toward Waikiki. It felt very safe in the area. We even walked from Waikiki to the Airbnb down Ala Wai Blvd home around 9 pm one night.
Air conditioner worked very well. I like it cold after a hot day at the beach and that was so refreshing.
There were plenty of towels. There floaties and body boards to use.
BEST parts were the laundry and dryer and free parking. For Hawaii, these are a must and included with the price of the stay.
Betty was very responsive from booking to anything needed during the stay.
Long story short: excellent location for food, quieter and safe area, and lastly, laundry/dryer and parking are a PLUS.
