Great spot on a nice easily accessed property. We had an issue with our Wi-Fi during our stay, and the owner was responsive and worked with us to help. We enjoyed our daily walk to the Royal Hawaiian (pink) Hotel for a swim and a mai-tai. Will certainly stay there again!

Worth it

The location is perfect. You can walk to Waikīkī beach. The view of the apartment is amazing. Although the furniture is old, is fair enough for the price we paid. The apartment had everything we expected for our vacation and we even extended our stay. I will definitely come back

Fantastic location

Great views, fantastic location. A couple of issues inside the unit. The water barely ran in the bathroom sink. The water in the shower started off at one temperature and changed. The wall sockets were all “loose” and needed something to prop up the cord you were plugging in. However the stay was wonderful and I would definitely stay here again.

It worked out...

Overall great experience. A bit tight but managed with partner and 10 yr old daughter. A few suggestions, would be nice to include overnight parking at garage w stay, especially being here over a week-added up. Too many interruptions during stay w services-fire alarm test, water outage, garage shoot backed up and filter checks. A/C unit a bit weak, doesnt cool enough. Had to buy batteries for tv remotes since dead. Beach walk is a bit further than noted. More like 20mins walking to usable beach areas. Otherwise was pleasant stay and amazing views especially during sunset. We made it work, thank you!

Nice view and stay

It was a good stay overall checked all the boxes: view, amenities and closeness to the beach! It was missing a few items like sponge, coffee filter, kitchen towel and property manager could show more aloha welcome. I had to ask for access information the night before check in.

Honeymoon in hawaii

We booked this beautiful penthouse suite for 5 nights and we were not disappointed. The apartment was extremely clean and tidy and balcony offered amazing views of Waikiki and Honolulu. Check in was a very simple process as was check out. Pool area was nice and very clean. Would absolutely recommend

Pretty nice place to stay in Honolulu

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall this was a great spot. We liked having the little kitchenette to be able to cook in - saved a lot of money on eating out that way. They also had grills you could use on the pool floor - they don’t all work 100%, but they get the job done and are another way to save money on food. The view was pretty spectacular, you could see both the ocean and the mountains and the sunset every evening. The location was plenty close to Waikiki beach, maybe a 10 minute walk at most. The sofa bed is not comfortable at all, so I wouldn’t plan on sleeping on that. The king bed was very comfortable. The toilet is a little small, especially if you are a bigger person. Probably the worst part of the stay was that they scheduled water pipe maintenance while we were there, so the last day we couldn’t use the water after 8:30am. Why they scheduled maintenance when people are staying there I don’t know. But otherwise would recommend.

Penthouse view was the best

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My wife and I were very pleased with the location and unit accommodations. We were only minutes from Waikiki beach, shopping and great dining options. The view was incredible but sadly the city lights faded out our star gazing. Not as quiet as we would have hoped for - sirens, loud exhaust cars / motorcycles. Ah, city life.The unit was very clean and supplied w/ most everything one would need in the kitchen & bathroom. Padio furniture was in great shape - to include a drying rack. We did notice the following items requiring maintenance: 1. Bathtub was cracked from soap dish to tub plus depending on the time of day the shower water temp madly fluctuated hot to cold. 2. Bathroom sink hot water handle leaks when turned on plus very low pressure - dribble, not a stream. 3. DVD player drawer would not slide out to receive a DVD. 4. The sofa mattress is terrible and needs replacing - felt every cross bar. However, the building had a clean laundry room, good size pool & hot tub, very nice gym, and a great breakfast/lunch dining option on the first floor.Great on-site building staff and Lei Hawaii Realty was very helpful in helping to set up our stay.I would highly recommend this property / unit as long as the maintenance items are corrected.International marketplace was super. Dole plantation was fun especially the soft-serve pineapple ice-cream. Also highly recommend booking a luau w/ TOA Luau. It was the most enjoyable and entertaining luau I've ever experienced. Top notch staff, food, performers and venue.I hope your vacation to Honolulu is just a nice as ours. Aloha

Dated but otherwise good

The property and room are both dated but clean and a few things have been slightly updated. The very small bathroom isn’t very user friendly. Sink tap barely let water through. Had to use the kitchenette sink. We only stayed 2 nights so it was fine for the duration. Location is great. Walking distance to shopping and restaurants.

Accurately described with comfortable mattress. We slept well. The shower was somewhat temperamental - turn both taps down to stop it cycling between scolding hot and stone cold. Well equipped kitchen.
