Awesome stay!

With ten people, it’s hard to get a condo that makes us all comfortable, but this place was great! The view was fantastic, we could see the water easily with no obstructions. The lanai was so relaxing. The staff was very accommodating, and the pool was clean and very enjoyable. The noise was unnoticeable, even with neighbors. The location was great as we were walking distance from lots of shops, restaurants, and the beach! Furniture was comfortable too. The host was accommodating as well and was very helpful, explaining everything thoroughly, as well as offering us transportation for our large party. I highly recommend this place!

This is the perfect location; it is close to the beach, great restaurants, shopping, resorts, etc. It is at the center of it all. The condo is very roomy for 4 adults, although we wish there had been a shower in the 2nd bathroom.We were disappointed in the check-in process. We were under the impression that after providing all of the requested travel info (flight number, arrival time, rental car info) that we would have access to the condo as soon as we arrived after 12 hours of travel (around 3:30pm). That was not the case. We ended up waiting by the pool in our travel clothes for over an hour because the condo was not ready. The door magically unlocked at 5pm sharp (despite the check-in time online stating that it would be 4pm- or earlier with communication to mgmt).Communication was good until we arrived. I received a text saying that they probably would not respond to me b/c they were busy and they were not kidding. Fortunately the valet and the people working at the front desk were helpful when a problem did arise (shower door got stuck…with me in it!)We had to check out at 10am and rented a room at the Hilton for the day (which was an excellent experience) since our flight did not leave until 10pm. If we had to do it all over again, I would arrange to arrive later and leave earlier. Overall, we had a nice stay and really enjoyed the convenience of the location and the beautiful views from the balcony.

Beautiful Views Every Day

The condo was very nice. Master bedroom had a walk in double shower. The second bath has a claw foot tub. It was a little difficult for our friends to stand up in the tub and use a shower wand to shower. They used our master bath for showers. The condo could use lamps in the living. It was on the 15th floor with only one other condo on our floor. Nice and quiet. Pool area wasn’t available due to construction. We would stay again. Mahalo for a great vacation.

Best Hawaii vacation ever

The condo is exactly as stated in the description. What you don't realize until you get there is how awesome the location is. You are really in the heart of everything and can walk to it all. The condo advertises it sleeps 8 and it does that very well. The only negative to the condo is the lack of a shower in the 2nd bathroom. I know the owners defend the bathtub in previous responses but it just doesn't work. None of the 8 in our party wanted to or had anytime to take a bath or to lock up a bathroom that long. The main bathroom with a shower divided from the sinks just made it so easy for multiple people to shower and others to get ready. That being said the condo is so awesome that we worked around it and the stay was incredible. We would definitely stay in this exact condo every time.

Beautiful ocean view on the Waikiki strip

We booked this condo for us and our two kids over New Year’s eve and the view of the midnight fireworks and celebration was absolutely spectacular. Downtown Waikiki, oceanfront, and easy access to the beach, shopping, and restaurants. The location was not far from the highway so we were easily able to get to Heunama bay and downtown Honolulu without too much traffic. The owners met us in the lobby to give us a tour of the complex as well as all the luxurious features inside this condo. From spectacular lighting options, to fantastic set ups in the bathroom, and a welcome basket for us. Chantel even remembered we were celebrating our anniversary :-) The interior design choices would leave anyone inspired. Beautiful tile floors leading even outside on the balcony, sea turtles designs laid in stone on the walls and floor and several beautiful touches made the inside of this condominium a magical place. Definitely would recommend for someone wanting to experience Wakiki with as beautiful accommodations Inside as the Waikiki Beach Coast is outside. The facility also has a gym, shared barbecue area, and pool.

Perfect location!

When you are staying in Waikiki this is the way to go! Our stay here was so perfect! It was right off the strip and our kids were able to just come and go as they pleased-from heading to the beach, the pool or just walking the strip at night, we had everything right at our finger tips. Even the valet were such a pleasure to work with! The sunsets from the balcony are completely unforgettable! Definitely gave our kids a trip to remember, and now even for them, Waikiki will always have a place in their heart!

This is a great ocean front condo. We were 6 adults, having only one shower is a bit challenging but we knew that going in so I can’t complain about it, we made it work. All beds are comfortable, had everything we needed. Great communication with Vrbo and condo manager. The valet staff is EXCELLENT! The location and view can’t be beat! The sunset right from the balcony is breathtaking I would def stay here again.

Thanksgiving Vacation

Beautiful property in a great location. Rented an SUV that had to be parked in valet but the valet employees were great to work with and quick to retrieve the vehicle. They brought up luggage and groceries when needed. Nice to have a kitchen. The balcony was perfect for watching the sunsets. Lots of action on Waikiki Beach for every age.

Great condo, loved valet, wonderful location, porch swing so relaxing, pool not in service, 1502 cannot see down shoreline to Hilton Hotel as that floor to low to have that view. Would need to be some where above 30ish and up. Wish I would have known as higher floors condos were available.

The kitchen did not have 1 sharp knife to cut a pineapple. Don’t expect to cut anything. Very much needed !! The glass ware was very limited to small juice glasses and a few cheap plastic bigger cups . As long as you ate out the place is wonderful. Great view of Waikiki beach Our parking spot that was assigned us had owners trailer parked in it so make sure ahead of time you have a parking spot

Lovely stay

The condo is lovely and the renovations (floors, walls, beds, furniture) are all very nice and completely comfortable. The location is perfect and the staff is very friendly and helpful. The only unexpected problem we had was that one of our group has vision issues with both depth perception and glaucoma (fairly new issue) and the floors are black and reflective and the sitting area has no lighting (ceiling or table lamps), we found out quickly that this was an issue for them. Nothing to be done about it, except to be careful when moving about. Note that bedside electrical outlets are not to be used, so if you require power for CPAP or other items bedside, pack long extension cords and painter's tape (to avoid tripping hazard). There are food trucks about 2 blocks away that offer excellent meals to go. As well as many wonderful restaurants a short walk from the condo.

Family getaway

The property is located across the street from Waikiki beach. The view from the condo overlooks the ocean and has a large beautiful deck. The condo is gorgeous with very high end features. The only bad thing is the second bathroom only has a tub, not a shower. I knew that when we rented the place, but want to put it out there for others to see. The 4th floor has 2 showers that we used daily with our adult family of 6, so all was good. We enjoyed having free parking for our rental car. The kitchen was stocked with everything you need. The location is amazing. We would definitely stay again. Beautiful
