Vacation

Apartment was perfect for us. Very accurate listing and well managed. The building is a bit old and elevators are slow but it wasn’t an issue for us. Just allow extra time during “rush hour” or use the stairs. (8:30-10 when guests are all trying to get to their activities)Would definitely stay at this apartment and in the Sunset Waikīkī building again.

Reasonably priced

Centrally located, parking is a great perk. If you are predominantly a pool swimmer you may not like this location as the pool is mainly shaded. We are more ocean swimmers and it was a quick walk to the beach.

Location is perfect

Perfect stay, location is close to front ocean. Location faces the hills instead of the ocean. Walk is accessible to Target, restaurant, ABC store, or driving out of the city. CON: I don’t know but instruction to access building was not sent until the midnight of date of stay. Vrbo customer service was super accommodating. I definitely recommend reaching out to property management days before arrival.

Ideally located

The apartment is in a great location. Not to close to the hustle and bustle of Waikiki so it is quiet. But well within walking distance. The apartment was cosy but needs a little updating. The curtains didn’t close completely, thanks god for my hair clips, that did the trick. I didn’t cook whilst I was there but the kitchen is a decent size if you wanted to cook and there were lots of utensils. Overall, a wonderful experience, I’d stay again.

It worked

Dusting really was lacking, the dust on the fake plants was so thick I placed one out on the patio. It was lacking a lot as for the kitchen, no pot holders, or spices. Not enough TP and they won't give you more at the front desk, you're expected to purchase more. Shower hot water was hit & miss. Bedding wasn't comfortable. There was a portion of tack strip exposed on the threshold of the bedroom, it would cut at my feet. As a landlord myself this place had untapped potential. The electric panel is scary, the outlets weren't reliable. It needs a remodeling for sure. The location is a bit sketchy, but inside the staff takes pride in their care of the place.
