Paradise Pad

I was back visiting my god daughter who lives in HNL. I was with her mom, my bestie. Great location, on the water, view and deck spectacular. Quiet. The unit had everything we needed. Free parking was easy across at Kapiolani Park. Good communication with Vrbo/owner, especially when checking in and out of the unit. Great to be able to walk to everything. Hiking diamond Head easy and close. Great to run around Kapiolani Park. Had a chance to paddle from the Outrigger Canoe Club a couple of buildings down. Yoga on the grass area at Kaimana beach a two minute walk. Highly recommend this condo.

Heavenly lanai

Overall we enjoyed our stay. The location is convenient but just outside of the Waikiki strip which we really like. It's a short walk to all the action, but the neighborhood is quiet and near a huge park and of course the ocean. The water is a bit rougher in this area so there tends to be the sound of crashing rather than tranquil waves but very pleasant nonetheless. We usually stay at the Kaimana Beach Hotel a few doors down, which is very nice, but this rental was much more comfortable. I was disappointed at first when I walked into the property as the photos were misleading. It is beachfront but the views from the property are side windows facing condo buildings and there are no windows facing the ocean. However the lanai out front is huge and overlooks the property's yard/garden and the ocean. There's a sofa, chairs and it's very comfortable and scenic. We loved it, although next time I would rent a place on a higher floor so we'd get both a spacious lanai and views. Inside the condo is spacious with a fully outfitted kitchen and everything you'll need. The bedding isn't hotel quality, and the linens and pillows could use a replacement. I highly recommend paying for the parking garage. It was super convenient and on weekends, it seemed that it would be difficult to find street parking,

Fantastic stay

The unit was located in a nice and quite area, about 15 min walking distance to Waikiki. Enjoyed lots of time on the balcony overlooking the ocean. Perfect for our needs. We paid for onsite parking, and it was well worth it, but can be a little tight at times. Also washer and dryer was in the basement (not in unit) - but there were plenty of machines, so not a big issue.

We love returning to this location

We’ve been staying at the DBH for 40 years, and return every year. This particular condo is situated ocean front and offers all the amenities. Word to the wise- the fold out couch is probably best for 2 children, anyone older/bigger will feel it’s a tight squeeze.

It's about the balcony

If we weren't out or sleeping, we were on the balcony. The view is amazing. And could hear the birds and have some fun people watching. The kitchen was stocked enough for basic meals. Thank you.

The ocean calls my name…

This review is overdue We vacationed mid January and enjoyed our accommodation. The ocean view on the balcony is outstanding! Leave the sliding door open to listen to the waves. Morning sunrise meditation started my mornings. Got to enjoy coffee and breakfast too. In the afternoons we always made sure we were done “holo-holo-Ing” so we could enjoy a glass of vino and watch the sunset! What a life! Reserved parking stall made it convenient. EZ walk to nightlife. We’re at edge of Waikiki so it’s quiet and easy on/off to freeways. Property management always available to assist and great follow up. We’ll be back! Mahalo!

Excellent location, clean condo

We had a wonderful stay in the condo. It was everything we could want. Stocked with the essentials, located exactly where we wanted to be… Just far enough from Waikiki, but still in the middle of the Diamondhead community. The balcony was the perfect place to relax in the morning and in the evening to watch the sunset. We would love to stay here again!

great stay once again

We have stayed in this building before, and it was great again. Close but far enough from Waikiki, the park across the street is great, and the views and balconies near the ocean are fabulous. The beds in this unit were comfortable. We did not use AC because of the constant breeze! Excellent overall!

Spacious and has everything you need!

This condo was very spacious compared to previous places we’ve stayed in Waikiki. The view from the lanai (and the lanai itself) is fantastic! We were very comfortable and had room to spread out. The building is very quiet and we rarely even saw people enjoying the shared outdoor area (plenty of chairs and tables out on the grass area for people to enjoy). Parking is an additional fee but we’ll worth not having to worry about finding parking on the street. We were very happy with this condo and the communication with the owner, highly recommend!

Great Place

It is a great place with everything you might need for a family vacation. It sits on the outskirts of Wikki, close enough to the hustle and bustle but far enough away to relax. It was clean, everything looked new, the balcony view was awesome. I would book again without hesitation. The only thing that wasn't initially clear was the small nominal fee beyond two guests and the required purchase of insurance, but it's barely worth noting. The place is a great place worthy of your consideration, we'd stay there again.

Perfect Place for our family

We were looking for a condo on the ocean in a quiet location for our first trip to Ohau. I looked for weeks to find the perfect place and as soon as we got there I knew I found it! The pictures on the website were very accurate! The view of the Pacific Ocean from the large balcony was beautiful! We spent every free minute there when not out and about Ohau. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook daily meals. The condo was very spacious for our family of 4. We liked how it had a separate den with pullout couch for our 2 adult daughters to use. We were able to leave open throughout our time there. We loved the area of Diamond Head, it was nice and quiet. It is a short walk into Waikiki and a local beach. We rented a parking space for our rental car in the garage of the building, it was well worth the added expense. The condo was clean and the check in process went very smoothly. We would definitely stay here in the future.

Amazing

We've stayed in Hawaii several times before. We found this property which was very close to the hotels that we had stayed at previously. This was a way better option with our kids in tow. The property managers where awesome and extremely easy to work with. The condo itself is wonderful. Huge lanai over looking to ocean perfect for a mid day nap after running the kids around.

Nice Stay

We really enjoyed our stay. The condo was really nice and a great balcony overlooking the ocean. We sat and could enjoy sunsets and surfers. We even seen an occasional whale. Comfortable sleeping, wonderful shower, plus anything you could need to cook inside. No grill at the facility. Small hiccup with check in but they took care of it right away and was very friendly. Easy walking to local beaches and downtown area. We would definitely visit this condo again.

Totally unique

I must have looked through 50 properties looking for location, uniqueness, and good price. I looked for weeks and when I finally took a good look at this one I said to my husband, "I found it!" I cannot tell you how much we loved the lanai -- we stayed out there for hours a day watching the surfers and the waves crash. This place is roomy, light, renovated, and just plain fun. The location is great, with plenty of things to do around it, and a 10-minute bike ride to Waikiki. The only thing was that that it mentioned a "den" and I thought that would be a little more private than it was. But overall I was so happy with the beautiful place.
