Ocean view studio - 1/2 block to World Famous Waikiki Beach <br>

Come to Hawaii and share in our wonderful condo in paradise. Our fully licensed and legal studio condo is only half of a block from World Famous Waikiki Beach.

You can have it all in this fabulous studio condo. The location and view are the crowning jewels of this unit. This unit is one of the larger units on the front side of the building that has a private lanai.

Located on the edge of Waikiki a block from the world famous Waikiki Beach, our condo has you near all the action yet the view makes you feel like you aren't anywhere near a big city.

Diamond Head/Honolulu Zoo/Kapiolani Park/Beach is your view from left to right on your own private lanai. Enjoy your relaxation time and meals right on the lanai. The building also has a 10th floor shared sundeck and you can grab a delicious meal from any of the nearby restaurants and enjoy it there, basking in the view.

Parking is available in the building for additional fees or ask about nearby street parking. If your trip doesn't include a car, no worries, you are right on a major bus line and it is literally steps to the bus stop.

We have a manager / contact person who lives just a couple buildings over so is close by to answer questions and assist as you settle in.

The location was great, 1/2 block off the beach and walking distance to everything the beach area has. Had a lightbulb go out and I texted the caretaker and it was fixed that day. Will be back and highly recommend this property for 2 people.

A spot in paradise

Perfect location across from the Honolulu Zoo with a bit of a view of the ocean and a great view of Diamond Head. Close to everything, much within walking distance. Unit was a bit dated but everything worked fine. It was a nice surprise that the Hula Bar is located just off of the second floor of the hotel. A real fun spot to meet people and listen to live music. We highly recommend this location!

Spectacular Diamond Head View

The place was perfect for our stay. We were able to vie Diamond Head on the lanali I in the morning while having coffee and then walk to the beach. The unit is older but we came for the views and the local attractions so it was fine. Shower was perfect and we did not find the noise a problem. Bill was a great host and we appreciated all he did for us. Hope to return soon

Great Location

We were very pleased. Check-in was simple and the building has many amenities to utilize. The host was very kind, the AC had and issue right before our arrival and Bill installed a temporary unit before we arrival. We loved the location and ocean views. The park nearby had parakeets, and many other birds. The swimming and snorkling from the pier to the aquarium is awesome, many fish species and swam with a sea turtle. Very pleased with the kitchen, water pressure, plush towels and comfy bed. Welocation.Enjoyed par

Conveniently located!

I had some of the best city life and ocean views during my stay. The zoo, beach, and local businesses were all within walking distance; literally across the street. Hula Restaurant is located on the 2nd floor of the same building. The property manager was very prompt at answering any questions. Thank you for making this such a memorable holiday experience.

Ultra-convenient location at a great price !

Cozy and compact with a full kitchen and two mini fridges. At the opposite end of the building from Hulu's so it is quiet. The mini-split AC is awesome. Bill the manager answered all questions promply and checking in at midnight with the door code was easy. Will stay again !!

Sunrise to Sunset perfect!

Had a wonderful stay here for 11 nights. Wonderful views from the balcony, watch sunrise from room or walk a short distance, stop at the coffee shop/abc store grab a coffee and watch sunrise from beach pier as it rises above diamond head. 10th floor has a viewing deck for sunrise and beautiful sunsets. Beach, restaurants, shopping and lots of local attractions within walking distance. You can also have food/drinks delivered from area stores. If you're looking for a place to enjoy your vacation this is it. Can't wait to go back!!🤗🤗 Maybe throw in a pillow, I missed mine.

Nice place.

This rental is very decent for the price and located right next to Waikiki Beach so you can walk out your door and be right there! Excellent location but bit loud. Not too bad. Having your own lanai with a view is awesome. Bring your own shampoo. Staff at the front desk are very friendly and let you stash luggage before/after check in for free which is very nice. TV was glitchy. Kitchenette was nice. Highly recommend for the price.

Perfect

Everything was exactly as I hoped it would be. Very relaxing, the lanai is always cool with a nice breeze. The view is amazing, you will not be disappointed, and of course it is so close to the beach. The parking garage has bigger spots than any parking garages I had to visit in Waikiki when out and about. The room was perfect, the hotel itself is clean and well cared for. I cooked breakfast every morning which was so nice to be able to do. ABC is right there for any musubi cravings, gifts to take home, etc. I would highly recommended staying here, and would absolutely stay here again. Top notch. :)

It didn't work

The manager tried but it was a 'no go'. We only stayed one night of our 7. We contacted VRBO and was supposed to get called back in 24-72hrs. It's been 18 days. VRBO gets a zero. The property manager gets a 5 for effort.

Great room, great location

Great room. Very comfortable. Great location, one block from the beach, incredible 180 degree unobstructed view of the ocean, Diamond head, and interior of the island. On the edge of Waikiki, close enough to do activities but not in the thick of the tourist madness. Easy to go up Kapahulu and get out of Waikiki and see the rest of the island or to pickup groceries at Safeway, Foodland, Leonard's Malasadas, and Rainbow Drive-in plate lunches! Parking available for an additional cost, currently $35/day. We've stayed at the Waikiki Grand several times over the years, we love the location, and this room in particular. Only small complaint is that it is an older hotel and the rooms are small, but you don't come to Hawaii to sit in your room! The room has a kitchenette, microwave oven, fridge, toaster, etc. for light breakfasts or lunch on the lanai people watching!
