Gorgeous Balcony Suite with incredible Views, Prime location.

My place is close to Waikiki Beach and overlooks Kapiolani park with awesome views of Diamond Head. There's local art every Sunday on the Art wall of the Zoo, Hulas bar and Lei stand is located witin the building.
We are close to all the great shopping, island transport routes, surfing, great food, and nightclubs.
You’ll love my place because of the people, the local ambiance, the neighborhood, and most importantly the location!

There's an HD TV, Wireless high speed internet and cable. The unit has a kitchen and there's a pool and deck on the ground floor.
Checkout the pics from the roof deck! This is a great place to relax and watch the sunset, changing the colors of Diamond Head as it disappears below the horizon.

Our guest host Rob lives in the building so is usually never more than a few minutes away if you have questions or need assistance.

There's a great burger place downstairs too, along with a nail salon in case you feel like pampering yourself with a Mani / Pedi after hiking Diamond Head crater (or lazying around on the golden sands of Waikiki Beach.

Cooking equipment is supplied for the 'two top' stove and of course there's a toaster, microwave, fridge and coffee supplies.

We enjoyed our stay and appreciated all of the communication with our host. The views from our balcony were amazing and the room was comfortable. The front desk was welcoming and helpful. A short walk to the beach and shopping. Only negative was at times the outside noise was loud. The view makes it worth it and I would recommend this room and location!

Waikiki Grand VRBO

Reserved an excellent efficiency studio on the eighth floor of the Waikiki Grand Condo-Hotel with lots of light, a double bed, kitchenette, and lanai with a gorgeous view of Diamond Head and beach/ocean view. Easy check-in and check-out, and easy access to Waikiki restaurants, coffee shops, and stores. Also reserved a dedicated parking stall in the securely-gated basement parking lot. Overall, an excellent place to stay.

Everything as described. Great location, a lot of restaurants and the beach a quick stroll away. The road could be a bit noisy with all the activity in the area though it didn't bother us.

Great Location

I booked this property due to location and the particular unit for the view and was not disappointed. As stated in previous reviews, the building is old and needs a "make-over" and the unit needs a new bed, REALLY !

Great little room and SO close to the beach!

This was my first solo trip and first time to Oahu. I knew I wanted a balcony and view of the ocean, plus a kitchenette and this room was perfect. I loved being in the east end of Wakiki beach and within walking distance of anything I might need. The only downside is there is a fair bit of road noise, so pack some earplugs! The sun deck was also sooooo lovely! The owner was always super responsive and helpful! I would recommend this room for a single person or couple!

Great location

Location of this property is perfect and views from the lanai are unbeatable! Unit was clean and well stocked with kitchen essentials. Bed was excellent and there was a good selection of comfortable chairs inside and out. The window louvres did nothing to keep out the very loud bar, partying and street noise. Suggest that a solid window pane would be a great replacement/ renovation. We enjoyed our holiday on this beautiful island very much and this is the perfect place to stay!

Great view!

This room was a great home base for our week in Hawaii. The view from both your private balcony and the rooftop deck are 10/10. The beach is literally a 3 min walk from this room. The bed is good enough, but nothing spectacular. The TV is a Roku tv and the coffee pot works great. The host was very responsive, and the front desk workers were always happy to help. The only bad thing is how loud this room is. You are over a bar and right on a very busy street. Do not expect any quietness and maybe even bring ear plugs. Even with the loudness, I would book again! Thank you all for a great stay!

I loved the location. The apartment was dirty. There was hair on the walls in the shower and sand IN the bed!! I also had to track down the owner to get an email telling me how to check in. I was also incredibly loud! The windows did nothing to decrease the loud traffic noise. We eventually bought ear plugs.

Great stay for our short time in Oahu

Rental is clean, easy check in process, front desk staff are super friendly, close to everything - beach, shopping, restaurants. We only stayed for 3 nights in Oahu and our main reason was to visit Pearl Harbor. Took the bus there and back. It was about an hour bus ride but easy, cheap and convenient. Our 2nd day we walked to Diamondhead Crater from the hotel. We went first thing in the morning and then relaxed at the beach the rest of the day. I would not hesitate to rent this unit again if in Oahu. It was perfect for what we wanted to do.

Great location and great deal.

The Waikiki Grand is a great resource for those who might be on a budget...let's face it Hawaii is expensive but the views from the west facing rooms are spectacular...the location to great swimming beaches is perfect. If you like to grab a cuppa coffee and walk in the morning its perfect. For those who like a Tiki style lounge in the hotel the happy hour at Hulas is great however....try to get a room that is as high up as possible as the music will be an issue for those on the 3, 4 and 5th floors. This is a busy street so pick a room on the back side fir quieter evenings. The booker, Mark was super easy to deal with and the staff at the desk are really helpful and pleasant!
