The location was great! The apartment was spacious and well-appointed. I would definitely stay here again in the future!
Host provided great communication in the lead up to the visit. Property manager response was great. Appliances in kitchenette all worked good for our early morning breakfasts up on the 10th floor patio. A/C kept the room at an acceptable temperature (for a couple of penguins from the Pacific Northwest that were navigating the heat).Great location right across the street from the Honolulu Zoo was great for both arrival from airport by bus (W-Line got us there and back) as well as bus tours that we had scheduled with pickup right across the street (and of course the beach and parks which are very much walking distance). Plenty of great food options in the immediate area whether you want higher end on the beach dining or want to try some excellent local fare up Kapahulu (Sunshine & Pineapple) or Monsarrat (Pioneer Saloon).
This is a very clean unit on the 6th floor of a hotel inclusive of a kitchen that is very nice & well stocked but a bit quirky. The AC is an adequate room unit however, the windows do open which enhances sleeping. The windows have shears which cover the open windows and at the level nothing flies in. Parking is a separate issue but can be on the premises for additional cost. The swimming pool badly needs replastering. A major positive outside of excellent communication with the host and the hotel front desk is that the unit while having no ocean nor beach view is a 2 minute walk from the east end of Waikiki and it is child friendly. A negative issue is that the excessive noise from 6 a.m. trash pickups from the hotel and surrounding hotels makes sleeping in very difficult.
Great location, just a block from the beach! Our room was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the unique character of the hotel and the amenities that were close by.
This property is located at the east end of Waikiki beach by the zoo. We like the area but do lots of walking going west down the strip. We like the walk. This apartment is located at the back of the building and doesn’t have a deck. But, big windows which we opened up and enjoyed the tropical breeze.
Loved our stay at the Birdcage. It was clean, welcoming and great location. Though we never met Kevin in person, he is a super host. From day one he kindly and quickly answered any questions and met all our requests. The Birdcage made the trip!!! Mahalo!!!
I stayed here for three days with my husband before moving on to another spot on the island. The Birdcage was a great way to start out our vacation. The unit was as described. It was clean and comfortable. Kevin was great and he graciously allowed us an early and easy check in. The beach is literally steps away as well as great coffee and places to shop and dine.
Location is excellent! Very easy and convenient, close to the beach and next to a big park. The rooftop view is fantastic. The host was very easy to communicate with and responded quickly when I couldn’t find the entry instructions. Both the management and host were very helpful. Thank you Kevin and Jeannie!The studio is smaller than I had expected, but the kitchen had all the necessities. It is like a hotel room that has been converted to a studio. We tried sleeping with the windows open but there was a lot of early noise from construction next door. The AC worked well but left a puddle on floor, where a towel was placed to handle it. In general we had a nice stay and enjoyed our time in Waikiki!
Close to beach, zoo and Diamondhead. Easy access to many restaurants.
Great! Would come back again!
We had a great time staying at the Birdcage. The apartment was the right amount of space for us. It was very clean and a great location near the beach and other Waikiki attractions.
Very nice stay, so pleased! Perfect rental for a single or couple! Way better than a 300/night hotel room, easy access and reasonable cost secure parking. Nice amenities in the unit and I cannot say enough about location! Waikiki beach is a block away, grocery store down the street, restaurants galore within walking distance. Felt very safe and secure. Most Hawaii properties are older and this one is no exception but well maintained and excellent host. Would stay again for sure!
It was overall an easy process to even check in. The hotel management was even wonderful the host worked with me and my plane delays and such. Amazing would definitely recommend I’ll be coming back for sure!!
Kevin was a great host and helped answer a lot of my questions about the location. The unit is perfectly located a few minutes from the beach. We ate at multiples places within walking distance from the condo. Would definitely stay here again.
Apt was a good size and close to the beach. Steps away. Our visit got cut short from roaches inside the apt. We relocated to the resort. Host was nice and provided us back a refund. Also trash chute is in well. You can hear everyone throwing trash down chute. All in all I wouldn’t go back.
We had a great time and our room was great
Kevin was great to deal with. Checking in was smooth. The room is a little tight but very nice and close to all you need.
Spent a nice few days in Waikiki in this well- located property, across from the zoo... and the beach. Our only "complaint" was the TV was difficult to figure out, and a bit small for its location across the room from the bed. We are approaching 70 with poor eyesight and hearing, a bigger TV, or more comfirtable seating closer to tv would have been great. been nice. Othe the early 60s.
Good location , can walk most places

We loved being at the south end of Waikiki Beach's hotel row, especially the rooftop view of the zoo and parks across the street. Easy walking distance to everything. Thanks again!
Great place! Across the street from the beach and zoo. Watched the sun rise over diamond which was very cool.
Loved our stay! It was close to the beach and very quiet for such a lively location. The perfect holiday getaway spot
My husband and I very much enjoyed our stay. Kevin and the staff at the hotel were friendly and accomodating. The beach was just a few steps from our door, the scenary was beautiful, and the community was warm and inviting. So thankful we had this experience in such a wonderful place together!
A wonderful experience from the beginning to end
Kevin Lum is probably the best property owner I have encountered. He goes the extra mile and responds with speed to any communication. Our refrigerator wasn't working very well and when we told him that, it was replaced that day with a brand new one! Everything we needed was in the apartment and we loved the location. Will definitely stay here again.

The Birdcage is a great place to stay. The location is excellent, the hotel had nice amenities, and staff were very nice. Highly recommend!
The Birdcage was exactly what we needed for our trip to Honolulu. Location at the end of Waikiki close to the zoo was convenient to get in and out of and to be able to walk down Waikiki without being surrounded by the crowds. The kitchenette meant we could save money by cooking or bringing food back to the condo while taking advantage of the use of the 10th floor sky deck to eat meals with a full view of Diamondhead and the beach. Paying for parking at the Waikiki Grand made it very convenient to come and go at our leisure. Altogether an excellent trip!
Great location. Clean. We had everything we needed.
