Waikiki is a nice leisurely stroll along the ocean and beautiful Kapiolani park.

The location is very central in terms of getting around the island and sightseeing as well.

Great location, huge comfortable space

Our family really enjoyed our stay over spring break. The location can't be beat -- walking distance to small & quiet beaches as well as the bustle of Waikiki beach, restaurants, water activities, shopping, etc; also centrally located so not too long of a drive when we opted to venture out to Oahu's other regions (North Shore, Leeward Coast, Windward Coast). The house itself is spacious, each of us had our own bed, and came with all the creature comforts of a "tropical" home (A/C, fans, outdoor area w/ clothesline, internet, TV, laundry, full kitchen, parking for 2 cars). The house has some snorkel gear but we opted to rent our own since we had some first-timers (so wanted to ensure proper fits) as well as folks who needed prescription masks. Maggie was super responsive and helpful when we inadvertently locked ourselves out one night. We would love to stay again when we return to Oahu!

Family vacation

Pleasant and comfortable stay. Felt like home. Very spacious and included great amenities- beach chairs/mats, beach toys, beach towels, cooler, sunblock, sun hats, etc. House was close to the park and down to the beach- we would always take our mornings around the area. I would definitely stay here again with family. Thank you!

Diamond Head Get Away!

This Historic Residence was spacious for our family vacation, grandparents, parents and two children, 10 and 7. The house is just outside of Waikiki and walking distance to Kaimana Beach. Trade winds made the stay comfortable, hardly used the AC. Kitchen had plenty of dishes and cooking utensils, even though we ate at many of the local restaurants. Everyone had a wonderful time and we hope to return again later this year. Mahalo!

Convenient location

The house is nice and roomy. It is an easy walk to a beach and a comfortable walk to Waikiki beach and shopping. The host, Maggie, was great. Within an hour of checking in we managed to lock ourselves out! I reached out to her and then we walked to Barefoot Beach Bar for dinner. By the time we had finished, 9 PM on Saturday, she had reached out and had someone get us in! Stayed for a week, very pleasant.

Vrbo Review

The house was very nice and allowed plenty of space for my wife and me, my son, my daughter and son in law and their three children. It had a large open area where our family could interact, but also had large separate rooms we slept in. The house was close to the beach but was just outside all the busyness of Honolulu. This was exactly what we were looking for. Had the bonus of having beach equipment when we went to the beach. The owners were very responsive throughout the entire process from inquiring about the property to questions I had during our stay. Definately would stay here again.

Amazing Waikiki Vacation Rental for Families

Wonderful location in a quiet neighborhood near Diamond Head within walking distance to beaches and a short drive to restaurants, shopping, etc. The house is large, spotless, well equipped (A/C, fans, beach items, tons of towels and pillows, full kitchen, etc) and truly lovely - the photos really don’t do it justice. Maggie and Tim were incredibly easy to work with, responsive and helpful. We stayed for 8 nights with four adults and one child and it was the perfect spot for our family holiday!

Excellent property in a perfect location

Go ahead and book this property now! Every aspect of our stay was absolutely wonderful. The property itself is exactly as the description says. It was extremely cleanly and provided more than enough space for our group of 6 to have the appropriate privacy needed while providing great options for us to be together whenever we wanted. It was very well stocked to support our needs and we especially appreciated having the beach materials available. The location was even better than the description indicated. We enjoyed some walks both the nearby beach as well as the park which was a short walk away. It's a very active area but was also very quiet, so it was an excellent spot to relax while also being an excellent choice as a base for the variety of activities we had planned. The communication with the owners was perfect. Maggie responded to all messages timely and provided more than enough notice about guidelines, directions, etc. that really helped us to feel comfortable before we even pulled up to the door. This property will stay on our short list of properties for our next visit. It really made our stay stress free! Don't hesitate, just book it.

We stayed for 5 nights with 5 adults and 2 babies. It was great. Location was great and house was perfect. The backyard was a great place for down time. Plenty of toys and chairs for us to use as well (we even left a few of our own).

Perfect Home Away From Home

We had a wonderful stay here near Diamond Head. It had all the necessities for a week long stay. It was within walking distance to an easily accessible beach for some sunrise and sunset swimming, as well as conveniently located to hike Diamond Head for sunrise. It was easy to access Waikiki and Honolulu for restaurants and shopping as well. There were only 6 of us but PLENTY of space. We will definitely be checking if this house is available when we return to Oahu!

Wonderful stay near Diamond Head

This house was perfect for my family! This house was close to so many things but a quiet neighborhood to end the day. The outdoor area was essential with 4 young girls to clean off after the beach. We would love to stay here again:)

Quiet Neighborhood but walking distance to everything!

Great house in a nice neighborhood, just south of the crowded city area and popular beaches. We enjoyed the house and were able to walk to downtown, the zoo, and the beaches. Nice to be out of the busy downtown area but close enough to walk and enjoy all the city has to offer!

Beautiful

The place was absolutely stunning! Great location for my family. The house was spacious and the amenities were life saving! The beach was a short walk away and you can't complain about the view on the way! My only struggle was that I was never able to connect to the wifi BUT - we were on vacation in Hawaii so aside from the pre-bedtime downtime there was no need for it. Amazing! Highly recommend!

Beautiful Home in a Terrific Location

The house and location were perfect for our family trip to Hawaii. The house is in a quiet neighborhood at the footsteps of Diamond Head. It's close to many beaches -- small and secluded spots, or larger ones like Waikiki beach. The house really has everything you need for a great vacation. The kitchen is well stocked with pantry items, dishes and, cookware. The fridge was filled with a nice selection of beverages (Thanks!). The house is roomy and comfortable, very clean, and thoroughly charming. Maggie was kind, gracious, and accommodating when we spoke and we can't say enough how much we enjoyed our time there. Thanks to Tim and Maggie for providing a home away from home in beautiful Hawaii!

Superb family getaway/reunion

Absolutely wonderful experience for our multi-gen family stay in Hawaii. If you are looking for a great place for an extended family reunion, the house layout, walking distance to parks/beaches and close driving access to stores makes a perfect package. The house layout with the one downstairs bed is perfect for grandparents and the upstairs rooms with balcony access served as a nice morning/late evening place for chats. The dining, kitchen, and outdoor patio with bbq grill enabled us to make great conversation and memories over family meals (so much better than going out to a restaurant). The house itself is immaculately clean and lovely.
