We had a great time staying here! The location is ideal, on the less crowded end of Waikiki near Diamond Head, within walking distance of the Zoo, Aquarium, and of course the beach. The room was clean and comfortable. Joyce provided all the info we needed. Highly recommended!

Great Stay

This was the perfect place to stay! Convenient to everything Waikiki including the Zoo, beaches, shopping, restaurants and bus stops. The room was compact but had everything I needed including a small fridge/freezer combo and a microwave. If you stay here, make sure to check out the 10th floor balcony- the perfect viewing spot for watching sunsets and fireworks. Would definitely stay here again.

Awsome stay in Waikiki VRBO

The room & hotel location were perfect for my needs this trip. The Waikiki Grand staff were all very pleasant and helpful. Joyce & David (VRBO host & owner) were so nice & responsive to requests. I would definitely book with them again.

Love the location and the suite is great. Wish they provided Beach Towels, if people take them or lose them, the owner could deduct the cost from the deposit.

Best location in Waikiki

Parking is always a great challenge in Waikiki. Kapahulu Avenue is the closet location to the largest amounts of free parking in Waikiki and only one block from the beach

Would stay again. No complaints.

The place was clean. Parked at the zoo via hourly rates. Some parking on the street near the beach but fcfs. Would stay here again. Room was small but was only there to sleep so didn’t mind.

First the Cons: The room was painted dark green which made it seem small. The large painting of the eyes of a Buddhist statue on the wall above the headboard was a little disconcerting, but we spent most of our time out of the room so, we adjusted. And the parking at the hotel (no fault of the VRBO owner) was 40 per night plus tax. The bed was so high off the ground, I had to buy a stool for my 5 ft 0 in wife. Finally, the floor lamp was missing a bulb.The Pros: The view from the 10th floor was wonderful (we sat up there at one of the tables and ate our take out without pest birds, flying insects, or noisy (maybe drunk) people hanging around). Very close to Waikiki, the Zoo, Diamondhead, downtown and the H1 freeway. The cost of the room was very reasonable. The bathroom (tub/shower) was a decent size. Plenty of restaurants with good food within walking distance. Overall, I would stay here again, but I would secure parking somewhere else within walking distance for much less.

Great location and great hosts!

You can’t beat the location! Very easy to book this perfect room. Has a microwave, refrigerator and toaster. Everything needed. The hosts are super communicative. There was a hiccup with the locking mechanism upon checking in but we got through it! I’ll definitely select this location again.

Overall good experience

We’ve stayed at this hotel previously and enjoy the location. Communication was great with only a couple hiccups. The biggest downside to our particular room is that there was a window AC unit that was blocked by a wardrobe in the room. Unfortunately, that meant that air wasn’t directly coming into the room. we had to get a fan to try to angle the air into the room in order to keep the room cool. The room is small, so don’t expect a large hotel room. And unfortunately, we got a room that faced other buildings this time around. But for the money spent and the location, it was all well worth it.

Not comfortable

Bed and pillows too hard; no bathroom sink - had to use kitchen sink. No instructions on heating oven. Metal pots can not be used in the microwave, too big for other oven. No stove. The TV would have been great, but the cable kept freezing about every 15 minutes. Patio okay, if you like the view of other buildings. One of the elevators was under repair the whol time and the other one was iffy.

Grand Waikiki

The Grand Waikiki is a lovely smaller hotel that is less than a block away from the Beach, across from the Zoo. The hotel is clean, everyone is super friendly. It has an amazing view from the sundeck on the 10th floor. There is a pool, restaurant on the main floor. Just make sure to bring ear plugs, our unit faced the back of the building and the running of air conditioning units was awful. That was my only complaint. I would recommend this hotel and would return in the future. You can park at the hotel for about $27.00 per night or free parking on the other side of the zoo which we did for most of our 2 week stay. Enjoy
