Very spacious and fully equipped kitchen. Parking included ! Enjoyed the view on balcony, watched the early morning surfers with my coffee and cool breeze. One block from beach, restaurants and shopping. We would definitely book this unit in the future.
I was in Oahu for a family weddingThe unit was perfect for where events were held for the wedding
Absolutely unbeatable location! The beach is a short walk away and you are right next to all the restaurants and shops. The check-in process was smooth, and we especially appreciated the garage parking which allowed for no stress rental car mobility.There is a washer and dryer right across the unit which was very convenient. Overall, highly recommend this unit.
Comfy condo in perfect location for walking to beaches at Waikiki and Diamond Head and to restaurants.
Comfy king bed and pull out queen. Nice decor, spectacular view for the price! Shag carpet is gross and fake plants had a lot of dust. Significant dust under furniture- Not a good choice if you have allergies but a great option for a small family or friends to share. Loved having a kitchen. The floor is not so high that you feel nauseated but high enough for a nice view.
My second time staying in the Banyan, so I had a good idea of what to expect. This unit was actually a little nicer than the one I rented two years ago. It seems like the elevators are new since last time which is nice. Had boogie boards, umbrella and beach towels as well as a few masks and snorkels, also a soft cooler which is great. The parking is such a huge bonus because I had a rental car to get to other greats spots on the island. Waikiki is a great "home base" for a trip to Oahu, there is so much to see and do on the island. One more thing, the malasadas at Liliha Bakery are better than Leonards! Try them both though, you have to. Get poke at 5 star Poke as well, unreal. Way better than anything I can find Vancouver.
We had a comfortable stay at the Waikiki Banyan. We walked to the beach and had easy access to the rest of Oahu with the free parking. The unit had plenty of clean linens, well-equipped and stocked kitchen and bathrooms. We appreciated the extra deadlock on the door. We hope the unit will be available for future visits.
Everything you need to enjoy the magic of Waikiki is at your fingertips.
This was a very pleasant corner unit with lots of natural light, and a well equipped kitchen. It could use an update but was comfortable. The nice-sized pool was heated and the hot tubs enjoyable. Beach chairs and huge towels were provided. It was nice to have a balcony. The area was wonderful. Just 2 blocks from the beach and other hotels. Lots of things to do in the area and a pleasant walk to nearby attractions, including zoo and aquarium and large mall shopping. The convenient in and out parking garage made explorations to farther areas easier. The owner was very accommodating.
Stayed for a week at this property. Communication with the owner was great, needed a few things during the stay and received them very promptly. Thankfully, Jeff was able to accommodate a late check out for us which was wonderful. The unit was very clean. Furniture was all clean and comfy. It stayed nice and cool, we did not need to run the AC, just ran the fan on the AC unit at night to block out the street noise. The little kitchen worked great and had all the cooking utensils, etc. that we needed. Used the beach chairs and umbrella, both worked well but maybe need replacement soon, as they are getting very worn out. Did not have a vehicle, so cannot comment on parking.Loved nearby Kaimana beach, nice vibe and good snorkeling. Spent a day in Kailua on a nice Kayak and snorkel excursion.We would stay here again!
If you are looking for a place close to the beach, with all the amenities of home, this property has checks all the boxes
clean well stocked if returning I would stay here
I’ve stayed at the Banyan a few times and would definitely choose this room again
We really liked this place. Great location and very clean. 4 minute walk to beach and near lots of shops. I’d stay again.
We previously lived in Hawaii and my daughter was born there, so we frequently go back to Hawaii. We have stayed other units in Waikiki Banyan for a few times. I believe that this unit is the best unit ever. It’s clean and nice modern design, but it also looks like a home! This unit is actually bigger than other units in the building as it is at the corner. As there is no ‘next unit’, thus very quiet. I would strongly recommend this unit. We will definitely stay in the unit next time we come back to Hawaii!!
This high rise unit has outstanding views of the beach and is centrally located (walkable) to most everything in Waikiki. The property has free parking, pool/hot tub, small cafe and convenience store all onsite. The kitchen is fully stocked and garbage and laundry facilities are right across the hall. I would update the listing to remove the two pictures of the bedroom as the difference in bedding and furniture makes it appear that there are two bedrooms. In fact this is basically a studio apartment with a bedroom and sofa sleeper. You could close the sliding door to the bedroom, but it would cut off the rest of your guests from the sole bathroom. That was a minor issue, though, and our family of 4 thoroughly enjoyed our stay!
All expectations met. Jeff is very prompt in his response to any question or situation. Well done.
We felt at home. My kids enjoyed the board games and the boogie boards etc. Place was very clean. Awesome view from the balcony. I highly recommend!
Good location. Easy walk to beach. Away from the hustle of Waikiki.
For anyone looking for a great location to stay very near (within 2 blocks) from Waikiki Beach, this is the place for you. Unfortunately there was some construction happening in the facility which took a bit away from our relaxing on the balcony, but all in all, a great place to stay
Amazing view of the ocean and mountains, while drinking morning coffee and afternoon cocktails… check, very comfortable bed, clean linens and towels … check..comfortable couch and lazy boy for watching a big tv … check.. beach chairs and boogie boards for beach.. check… wind blowing through the unit.. or air conditioning for white noise at night … check…fair sized kitchen.. check.. great location to walk to stores and beach … check! Now remember this is Waikiki so there is street noise no matter where you stay.. this is the city. The hotel is 1979.. so it is older( bathroom) however great shower pressure and a tub for bubble baths. The lobby is very Hawaiian and has beautiful historic pictures of Waikiki.
This condo met our expectations, and allowed us to explore the island. Thank you Jeff for a wonderful vacation home base! It was a very memorable 3 weeks.
Mahalo,

The place looks just like advertised. Great view from lanai. Would definitely stay here again.
Everything was as expected. Good location a very short walk to the beach, shopping and plenty of dining options. Not a resort property by any means but this was exactly what we wanted and were looking for.
I loved our stay at the condo. It has great views of Waikiki beach and was a close walk to the beach. The condo was well equipped and very comfortable. Both the bed and sofa bed were very comfortable. Best VRBO I’ve stayed at.

The property is in a good location. The corner unit is large and great for families. The pool is clean, the 2 hot tubs were nice. Views of ocean from kitchen and bathroom. The building is secure. Parking is tight but there are a lot of spaces. Fairly quiet in unit. Extra bedding, towels and pillows. Some beach chairs, mats, umbrella, goggles and boggie board provided. Kitchenware provided. Some toiletries provided. I would stay there again. Thank you Jeff.
