Tiare's place was exactly what we were looking for. We needed a place with a kitchen, laundry and free parking space and in central Waikiki so that we can just walk to the beach and it met all our needs. Check-in was a breeze. The place is really clean and she has all the amenities (i.e. beach towels, bath towels, shampoo/conditioner, laundry detergent, dish soap, etc.) just like you're home. The AC only works in the living room, but it didn't bother us much as we just left the room door open. It's a close walk to the beach, mall, food, everything. Free parking is a plus, since most places don't offer this and hotels charge extra $40-50 a night. She's really quick to respond and always kept us updated. I would highly recommend staying at her place.
