The salient feature for us is location. Perfect spot to enjoy the park, beaches & shopping is a ten minute walk. Keith is a super host, thank you! We will come and stay again.

Great stay!
The condo was exceptionally clean and comfortable. There were treats greeting us, as well as water, which was very welcoming. It is in a great location that is easily walkable to Waikiki. The pictures are accurate and we had a very enjoyable stay. Despite spending most of our visit outside of the condo, it was a welcoming reprieve when we got back each night! We highly recommend this VRBO and we hope to come back and stay here again soon!

Clean, easy check-in
The room was clean and the check-in was easy. There is an exceptional view of Diamond Head from the balcony. The front desk advised us where to park the mopeds we rented and we received parking tickets for following those instructions... The only other thing that was less than perfect is the bed mattress should be replaced...

First visit to Hawaii
This is basically a nice hotel room with a great little balcony overlooking the park and Diamond Head. Good value. A bit noisy from the road but the air is so nice hard to close the windows.

Good stay
We enjoyed our stay. The views are pretty cool. Was worried about parking but was generally able to find free parking in the evenings. Hard to find during the day. I chose this play to get away from the Waikiki crowd. Location was more low key and relaxing.

Good value and location
My husband and I stayed for 8 nights. We liked being out of Waikiki but still within a 15 minute walk. This rental is a good value. We had our own lanai overlooking a park with a fountain and a great view of Diamond Head. The grounds behind the hotel are right on the ocean and we sat and watched the sunset there a couple of nights. We appreciated being able to use the beach chairs and snorkeling equipment that was provided. Communication was fast and easy. There is also free street parking starting about a block away which was very convenient when we had our rental car for part of the trip. Hope to stay here again.

Perfect for two
This is a cozy little apartment. Location is great at the far end of Waikiki away from the hustle and bustle. It is at the parkside of the building and there is a small patio/lanai overlooking Dillingham fountain. The common area on the oceanside is very nice but limited in prime seating if the building is full. Building is older and not fancy but adequate. Kitchen is a mini-fridge and microwave/toaster oven. Overall perfect if you are not a prima donna.

We love this area. It's not far to walk to Waikiki Beach and all its offerings, yet it is quieter and the park is so pleasant. Mind you, getting in the water here can be challenging. It's best to walk a block to a beach. We wish there was designated parking. We stayed 8 nights and only had trouble parking in the park on Wednesdays when there were kids' soccer games. The unit is nicely appointed. The only thing lacking is a kitchen, but we were gone much during the day for eating out and the microwave and toaster oven warmed our leftovers. The refrigerator is a bit small, much like a regular hotel minifridge. There is a fantastic beach cafe a short walk with very reasonable prices. This corner unit afforded lanai seating for 2 overlooking Kapiolani Park and a view of the fountain and Diamond Head. Sunsets were fantastic while lounging in the waterfront yard. Although the management company never gave us a phone number to call, we could text and email with good response. For instance, the coffeemaker stopped working and Keith was prompt to bring a brand new one. The unit has plenty of glasses and plates. There are even pots for using the hot pad (which we didn't). Maintaining a drawer of previously left items is clever. We made good use of the sunscreen, sandwich bags, and other items. There were three sets of towels and two dish towels. We used the beach chairs and boogie boards. Overall, it was a pleasant experience that we would consider again.

Another great stay
This was our third stay at this property and our favorite so far. The unit was very well-equipped with everything we could need! We thoroughly enjoyed starting our day on the lanai with coffee overlooking the park listening to the birds and watching the sun come up over Diamondhead. The bed was very comfortable and we really appreciated having a couch and table and chairs to expand our living space. The snacks and drinks were very welcome, too! We will be back!

Beautiful stay
We loved this sweet condo. We had everything we needed and more. The host was super responsive and made our stay amazing. The ocean breeze was great and the view of Dimond Head was stunning! The Waikiki beach was about a 10 min walk and just far enough away for peace but close enough to play. Although there are a lot of homeless in Waikiki, this condo is away from that problem. The park is beautiful and we felt super safe and at home. No homeless people at the park. Parking wasn’t an issue. There was plenty of free parking at the park. Overall it was an amazing place! We are thankful!
