Perfect location!

This property is really in the heart of it all. Easy walking distance to beaches, shopping, groceries, restaurants, nightlife, and more. Being a corner unit with 2 lanais was a definite bonus. Lots of light and great ocean and city views. Dedicated parking spot was also a real luxury. The unit was very clean and Lia was helpful and responsive throughout the reservation and rental process. Another bonus was that this unit was stocked with lots of great supplies which made hanging at the beach more comfortable (beach chairs, towels, coolers, and umbrella). We've stayed in Waikiki many times in a variety of buildings condos/hotels. At this price point this location is hard to beat. The cleanliness really exceeded our expectations and this unit was far nicer than others we've stayed at in this same building. There were only two downsides: No AC and some night time noise when windows were open. Neither of these were actual issues for us. Our winter stay was cool enough to be comfortable at night and we live in the city, so I am used to the night time sounds that come with big city life (and if you really need them earplugs were provided). We had a fabulous time and will definitely be back soon!
