Had a pretty great stay at Ashley’s place. The spot was very central and convenient to walk or bike everywhere in Waikiki. Biki bikes are right down the street and a great option to get around without a car.
Her apartment was also very cutely decorated and really primed for someone who loves to cook. Mornings on the lanai were honestly magical with her couch, the plants surrounding you and the view of the ocean. Just a note that the apartment while it is a one bedroom with separate living room, there isn’t a door to close avoid noise from the other room (for those that might be sharing a work remote space/multiple people having calls).
Ashley has a bunch of beach supplies, toiletries, towels, cooking appliances and utensils you can use which really came in handy. Staying in someone’s actual home has its perks!
We only had two minor complaints which were that a few dishes and utensils had food residue on them in the cabinets as if someone had forgot to run the dishwasher and put them away. Could’ve been an honest mistake. Just make sure you rinse dishes or at least check before using. Biggest letdown was the lack of a microwave in the place. Staying for the month we didn’t eat out every day and it made reheating food and leftovers such a hassle.
Otherwise we had a pretty great time and would definitely recommend a stay at Ashley’s spot. It’s a quaint place to spend your time in Waikiki!
