Our beautiful 'window of light on the Pacific' offers just a 2 minute walk to the ocean from our fully remodeled brand new suite at the Waikiki Grand.
We know our walk-in, full body massaging rain shower will soothe away the stress in our new bathroom.

Offers square ergonomic kitchen sink & built in drainer for your convenience.

The owners attention to the details will impress you, the light, ocean breezy design touches will calm and relax you.
K-cup coffee maker (and milk foamer), midi fridge freezer & microwave make preparing breakfast or meals easy.
This smaller than usual space could not have been done better in our opinion, we hope you feel the same. The owners certainly had their guests comfort in mind whilst creating this unique Zen filled slice of paradise. Every attention to detail was well thought out & then carefully & methodically incorporated to bring joy to guest experience in this full renovation.

The studio offers air conditioning, WiFi and of course plenty of basic HD cable channels for those days you stay in or relax at home in the evenings.

All Linens and towels are provided including beach towels.

Beach chairs are available for your use with one quick call to us during your stay.

As mentioned above we are just 2 minutes walk from the Pacific Ocean and Waikiki Beach. To compliment that there is also the gorgeous Kapiolani Park just across the road which nestles itself below the iconic Diamond Head crater.

Many of our guests will enjoy a run around the park up to Diamond Head Tennis courts during their stay (bring your rackets if you play, as you're sure to find a willing tennis partner if desired).

Though you do not need a car due to the fabulous Waikiki location and everything being easily walk-able, The hotel itself offer parking at $30 per day subject to change/availability - we'll send details after your reservation is confirmed.

UBER & Lyft ride-share apps. both operate on the island along with taxis and a very reliable bus service.

An UBER ride up to the famous Manoa Falls runs around $8 if needed and can collect from the parking lot once you are finished hiking.

Again, we are here for you during your stay as needed so if you have questions on the best mode of transport for a particular jaunt, please just ask us.

Nice little apt

Great if you're alone or don't mind small space. Only downside was sometimes the music outside was a little loud but nothing crazy at all. Parking is a bit expensive at $30 per night. Great shower!!!!! And walking distance to most stuff in the area. Can't go wrong for the price.

Cockroach & very loud location

The location was only good in terms of getting in and out. The location is connected to a bar/nightclub so you will hear partygoers til 2am then at 5am the delivery’s begin right below your window into the building. We didn’t sleep well here. Found a cockroach. The bathroom sink is clogged and shower will flood the bathroom floor due to shower curtain not being long enough to keep water inside shower. This listing needs a little work and sound proofing.

The room is really cute and small. The location is great.The noise from the street and the bar is laud all the time. The host is arrogant and the e-mail for check in or check out never come through and we had a hard time to talk to them on the phone.

Not a quiet place to stay.

Right under the room is a bar and very loud music is playing all night long. The beat of the music just never stops. The street noises are very loud as well.

Property was perfect for my week-long stay. If you are planning to just hop around Waikiki, you won’t even need a car with this prime location! Property manager was super communicative and easy to reach. Would definitely stay here again!

Great unit, horrible location.

This awesome cozy unit was on the third floor- right above the Lulu's bar that starts to play loud music with screaming drunk people well past midnight. The bar advertisement said they have live music until 2AM. It was impossible to fall asleep anytime before 2am. The windows in the unit do not block any outside sound. So trucks that park on the street for whatever reason at 6am to offload who knows what, were heard every single time.

Aloha - Thank you for viewing one of our property listings on VRBO.com - My name is Mark Howard, and I am the Principal Broker, President and Property Manager for Hawaii Americana Realty, headquartered in Waikiki. Originally from New Zealand I have made Waikiki my home because of the sun, surf and sand. Hopefully you will have the opportunity to stay in one of our vacation properties sometime soon. Feel free to contact us with any questions you may have, and Aloha!

Why they chose this property

The main reason we purchased our condos in this building had to do with the location. It is perfectly situated at the edge of Kapiolani Park. and located less than a minute from the famous Waikiki' Beach. This unit was totally remodeled back to the concrete walls and beautifully renovated and decorated with a soft ocean feel.

What makes this property unique

The unit is smaller than many we offer and this only adds to its charm and romance in our opinion. Just wait till you take your first shower at our place the walk in full body rain shower will sooth & relax you or stimulate & revitalize your muscles after a hard day hiking.
