Studio room with kitchen (no stove/oven). Comfortable bed. Less comfortable couch. Picture of ocean view is accurate but does not include all the buildings and roofs that are also part of that view. Parking garage was full but we didn't need it. Always found parking either paid (.50/hr) or free close by.
Nice property, everything was as described. Great view and the bed was comfortable. Liked the location. Close to a lot of activities, but far enough away that it was very quiet at night.
Everything was great, but if I had anything to complain about it would be the parking situation. Other than that, it was very nice…thank you!

A lovely place to stay. It was very clean and within walking distance to many shops and the Waikīkī beach.
The location was perfect for us. The bed was too soft but everything else was good.
It was everything the website said it was just a little smaller other than that it was a beautiful view had an awesome time
This apartment is in perfect location if you want to stay out of very busy Waikiki but in the same time you are close enough to just take a walk to be there. Place is very nice and has everything you need. I would highly recommend to reserve parking spot.
Parking is almost impossible, shower is way too small. The unit was dirty around the base boards and the pillows were trash. I'm not trying to be rude or mean but just giving my honest opinion. It was not worth what I paid.
Check-in was easier than expected and the unit has plenty of room for 2 people. Kitchen supplies were accurately described so don’t plan on cooking a gourmet meal but suitable for breakfast or simple meals. We loved the location and would stay here again! Had a slight issue our last night (there was a half marathon the day we were checking out and the surrounding streets were closed (the police said they could not guarantee we’d be able to leave) so we parked our car 3/4 mile away to ensure we could get to the airport. Parking across the street otherwise very easy. Overall we thought a great place despite that complication.
Highly recommended. The studio is cozy with an amazing ocean view and an unforgettable Diamond Head mountain backdrop. Lana provides everything necessary to make the stay "Perfect In Paradise!
Enjoyed our stay at the Diamond Head Hotel & Resort. We really liked the back patio where we could watch the sun set and eat at the tables. Mahalo...
Difficult access for mobility challenges. Parking. Arrived to property, difficulty accessing lock box, finally able to obtain key/parking FOB. Parking in garage very tight,even for small car. Park nearby. Beach down street, walking distance. For more able, walking to town accessible. For our needs, unit was challenging r/t Microwave in upboard above fridge - had to use step stool (very small), danger for those with balance and mobility issues. Possibly for anyone getting hot food/drinks out. TV was difficult, no instruction on site - kept getting "no signal". Have to say, value for this unit based on viewing unit next door lacked for appeal for homey to feel and better ammenities. People in general living/staying were very friendly. Security on duty at night.
It was a great spot we enjoyed our time there it was however a little noisy.
Great location, very clean, everything provided, would book again!
The condo was lovely, perfect for two people.
Immaculate rental. Perfect location, easy access to all the sights and attractions. Would stay here again!
Within easy walking distance to Waikiki but far enough away to enjoy the quiet of the Diamond Head neighborhood.
With a car rental, explored the entire island!
Located on the 7th floor of building just south of aquarium with views of Waikiki Beach and sunsets. For cooking, used the electric fry pan. It is good for grilled sandwiches and heating frozen stir fry. Diamond Head Grill and Market has excellent take out and restaurants are within walking distance. Be sure to reserve a parking space in the garage. It was well worth the extra cost.
We love this part of Honolulu. The studio apartment was well thought out and had everything we need. The property manager was very helpful and we enjoyed our stay. I would suggest replacing the bath towels and beach towels.
Stayed a week with my spouse, just enough space for us two…lovely views, nice kitchenette (who wants to cook full meals on vacation!), easy check-in. Secure property. Easy 1 mile walk to downtown Waikiki.
Great location, close to the beach and Kapiolani park. Lovely studio, very quiet, fairly well equipped kitchen, very comfortable bed.
Recommend paying for parking on weekends; during the week, there is sufficient metered street parking across the street, free from 6pm-10am.
Would stay here again!
Perfect jump off location for all the Oahu places to visit. 2min walk to great snorkeling (saw turtles), Waikiki beach, and the strip. Far enough away that it's quiet and clean.
Gated convenient parking in the basement if you want to pay for it.
(I'd stay away from parking spot 16 due to leaky water pipe overhead)
My wife and I were visiting Hawaii for the first time, to attend a work conference. Between the views of Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head, the amazing Tradewinds breeze that flowed through our room, and the incredible back patio of the hotel, we truly loved our room! We also appreciated that the VRBO, while only a few minutes walk to the beach and the heart of the city, was located in the mellower part of town.

I had a wonderful stay. It was perfect for my first time. I felt safe. Theis condo has everything. Itcwasxwell thought out. Walmart and Safeway way close by car. Parking was challenging but I figured out the secret.
I would love to return here someday.

Everything was nice orderly and easy to find.
This is one rather important kitchen need and I didn't realize that there wasn't one in the room. There was a very nice electric frying pan/lid that we did use. The griddle wasn't needed. However, the other cooking utensil we couldn't figure out how to use. So after 30+ minutes of trying, we gave up and just used the electric frying pan. Everything else was just fine. I would recommend this apartment to anyone interested in a rather quiet locale. BUT a microwave is a definite necessity.
