Aloha,
If you are looking for a relaxing, peaceful place to come home to after long days exploring the island, look no further. This lovely location with incredible views from every window is spectacular! Having coffee out on the lanai each morning was something I looked forward to every day.
The location is perfect; close enough to everything, yet just far enough away from the crowds and noise of Waikiki. Being on the 10th floor was exceptionally welcoming and kept street noise at a distance.
In complete transparency, the building is a bit dated and the apartment could use a little bit of a loving touch but regardless, it was comfortable, clean and secure. The kitchen provided enough to allow us to comfortably make breakfast each morning and several dinners during the week. The one thing I would replace is the mattress pad to the sofa sleeper in case you need it. It was not comfortable at all when opened and a bit squeaky so if you happen to be sharing the living room sleeping space with someone and are a light sleeper, the sofa squeaking might kept you up.
Regardless, I would stay here again in a heartbeat. I visited along with three girlfriends and we all quickly made ourselves at home. Mark was great to communicate with and made our arrival and departure seamless.
I look forward to visiting again next summer. Do make sure to check out the stars in the wee hours. I happen to wake up about 4am one morning and saw Orion right over Diamond head. It looked so close, I thought I could almost touch it. Amazingly beautiful!
Mahalo Mark and Team! You guys gave us a great week’s adventure in paradise.
