Nice place, very conveniently located in the beach area. Nice view from balcony,
This place was really nice! 17th floor with a perfect view of the mountains. You’re so close to the international market as well! The condo was clean and super nice! Would 100% do this again. Only problem was when we first got there I had to have the building manager let me in the door cause when I called the number given to me nobody answered at all. So communication was an issue but we rarely had any issues so we only had to attempt to contact them 2 times. Overall 10/10 condo!
Description is mis-leading...while it does state that the AC unit is in the Bedroom, what is does NOT state is that it will ONLY cool down the Master Bedroom and NO OTHER ROOM in the Unit. Our stay was miserable. A maintenance person told me that it should be advertised as "only a winter unit". The spare bedroom had a weird window area where it looks like an AC unit "should" be, but it was covered with some sort of fabric squares right by the bed headboard! It had a direct opening into the hallway, and from a security issue, it made my Grandaughter very uncomfortable to sleep there. Lots of wear and tear (paint chipping off, sliding doors falling of the hinges in the bathroom, duct tape on door transitions). Good Layout, just needs a lot of attention. I would not stay there again.
This apartment was a great location to Waikīkī Beach, shops and restaurants. The parking spot was great. The apartment itself had all the things we needed: kitchen appliances, laundry, bathroom toiletries, beach towels, some beach chairs, etc. The AC worked great. There were tvs and WiFi available, but we didn’t use them. There were two sinks areas in each room that attached to the shower/towel room which was great for getting ready. The only thing was the sliding doors to the bathroom area were hard to open and close and the pull out mattress could be updated. There was a nice patio for two to sit or to dry your bathing suits. Plenty of storage and closet space. We would definitely stay here again.
This apartment was a perfect location to downtown Waikiki beach, shops and restaurants. The parking spot was great. The apartment itself was well equipped with kitchen needs, bathroom toiletries, beach towels, etc. It even had some beach chairs and boogie board to use. The AC worked great. There were tvs and WiFi available, but we didn’t use them. The outdoor patio was perfect for two people to sit or dry your towels. The apartment was clean, but the bathroom doors were a bit tricky to slide, however, we loved that there were two sink areas for each room. We would definitely stay here again.
We loved the view and were generally pleased, but we feel the following things need to be addressed: More specific steps for checking in and out, using bullet point style.Bathroom doors were very awkward. In fact, those doors and the patio door need to be fixed. It was tough trying to open or close them.We enjoyed the chocolates and bottled water. Thank you! It would make future guests trip easier if you provided a couple items, like coffee filters, and some basic and coffee and tea.
Expensive area so didnt expect a lot. Checking in was a hassle with parking, getting the key fob and then getting back out to the car and then driving into the tight parking garage. Once in room was ok but the window in the main bedroom lets air through constanly. In windy nights the window howled and whistled all night. We figured out in the morning that the window sill has been patched but not well - a little scary for a 17th floor room.Overall the place worked for a few nights but if we return to Waikiki another time we will look for other spots
Amazing view, easy walk to the beach. Thoughtful amenities, I.e. beach chairs, towels, laundry,
Excellent location with beautiful view. Comfortable with nice amenities. Could use some minor repairs. Easy walk to Waikiki. Bathroom door are a bit hard to close and shower isn’t sealed properly. Laundry in unit is great. Pool was out of service.
Good 2 room unit for a family. Good view. Clean.
Room overall was decent for the price. Location is a little sketchy. But it is where it says. it’s back near the canal. The view from the room and balcony is of the canal. mountain background and the nice golf courses. Walk to the beach was less than 10 mins. Not bad at all. Room had plenty of towels, beach towels, beach accessories. Kitchen was stocked with items for a normal condo rental. Room does need some maintenance. Sliding balcony door was very hard to open/close. The 2 bedrooms share a bathroom. But has 2 vanities with sliding doors separating toilet and shower. Sliding doors are pretty old and keeps falling out the track. Needs work. A/C for the room as a whole, is not real good. Main bedroom has the AC unit and that’s it. All other rooms have a ceiling fan or box fan. Had to move fans around to try to move air around. Most rooms stayed stuffy and warm while the main bedroom was cold. A watch out is the door fob. the building is pretty secured. The fob opens/closes the parking garage, entry into the building and access to the elevator. For a family of 5 that wants to go here and there, you really need to coordinate to get into/out of the building. Overall price was fair and we did like the cancellation and refund policy. For our family circumstances, the cancellation policy was a plus. We didn’t have any issues with the tenants or others in the building. Just be aware, you are renting a condo in a building that also has regular tenants.
Our stay was fair. Pros and cons. Price is reasonable for location and is walking distance from center of Waikīkī beach less then 10 min walk. Room had plenty of beach towels, towels and rags, soaps and kitchen cleaning supplies and kitchenware. Room also had several beach items so we didn’t need to buy anything. Did like the option of cancellation timeline and refund, which was important to us given our family circumstances. Other reviews are correct in that the A/C was not great at all. Main bedroom is only one with AC. All other rooms were a box fan or ceiling fan. Master bedroom had to stay cold and we had use fans to move air around the best we could. Still was warm/ stuffy during the day in all other rooms. It is 2 bath vanity with shared toilet and shower. Room is in dire need of maintenance work on the balcony door. Very hard to open and close. This was on past reviews and never addressed from what we experienced. Toilet/shower space is separated by 2 sliding doors. Again in rough shape and dire need of repair with sliding and staying in the rails. It comes with a key fob to get in the building and also in/out of garage. It is secured which was good because of the sketchy location since it’s not on the main strip. A watch out. With a family of 5 and all waiting to go here and there, you need to coordinate entering/exiting by foot and car. Fob opens/closes the garage door but also into/out of the building and entry into the elevator. Washer/Dryer was handy.
Could be a 10, but just too many small and medium things that bring it down to a 3Full Document: dropbox dot com/scl/fi/l0jq203u8yx8xye8tb61b/320-Lili.docx?rlkey9v8rfla839zgp1xdk6mo5rx8x&dl0
There are positives and negatives during our stay.I. Positives:1. Vacasa representatives were very responsive. Thank you for your prompt responses to all my correspondences. The one star I rated for the property manager did not apply to Vacasa representatives.2. Spacious unit. We did not lack anything.3. Assigned parking spot. A great plus.4. Furnished balcony. We enjoyed sitting out there.5. Nice view of the river, the golf course, and the mountains.6. Security. We felt safe with the key fob because no one could use the elevator to access the units without the fob. We had an experience where this stranger waited at the door to enter the building as we exited on the first floor. He then asked us to use our key fob so he could use the elevator. We said no and felt safer. II. Negatives:1. Listed property manager never picked up the phone, called back, nor responded.2. The bathroom sliding doors needed to be fixed, especially the one in the second bedroom. My friend's hand got hurt because the door kept coming off rail. 3. The floor in the master bedroom needed to be fixed due to wide gaps and someone could trip or heels could get caught in the gaps, which was a falling hazard.4. Check-out instructions were inconsistent and conflicting, especially regarding the return of the key fob. 5. Only one key fob and unit key, which made it inconvenient when we returned at different times.Overall, the positives outweigh the negatives and we enjoyed our stay at this unit.
The unit is showing its age and is in need of an update. The master has water damaged flooring, that is falling a part. Building is very secure, you need an electronic fob to access the building and elevators, parking garage, only problem is that Vacasa only supplies one key fob for the unit. When someone from your group has to run anywhere they need to take the fob, that makes anyone left in the condo prisoner until the person with the fob returns.I must say we has a repair issue and the person doing the repair worked quickly and did a wonderful job, he started on a Friday, needed a part ordered an returned bright and early Monday morning to finish the repair. Five stars for that part of the process. Checking was a joke, there is a call box where you call some one to give you entry into the building, they never responded, calls went to voicemail. Called the local manager, same thing calls went to voice mail, finally ended up renting a hotel for the first night, Came back the next day, same issue no one answered the call box, I was able to follow someone into the building and got access to the lock box so that we could come an go as needed. We would stay there again, even knowing what we know, as the title says, Location, Location, Location, it is close to everything you want in Honolulu, the beach is a 7 minute walk, food, stores with in the same time frame. The location is a 10/10, the biggest let down was the local staff.
The view was gorgeous, the home was inviting, and there was so much to do within walking distance! Guest service was so friendly and easy to work with and we truly enjoyed our stay!
We had an amazing time in the apartment. The view on the mountains is great and the location is perfect. Just a 10min walk away from Waikiki Beach and the city centre.
WiFi is fast, the kitchen has everything you need and the beds are not too hard and not too soft. The parking slot is very useful!
Very convenient location in Waikiki. Walking distance to all of Waikiki and surrounding areas. The sliding glass door is a little hard to open and close but, doable. Good communication via texts.
The restroom doors did not close well. They kept getting stuck and made loud noises, almost as if it were breaking. We weren’t given a parking fob so we parked in front of the lobby for the duration of our stay after waiting in the street for a long time while management sorted everything out, it was very disorganized and we didn’t get any clear updates on what to do. The beds were not comfortable. The sofa bed was very dirty and broken so we had to put it on the floor. It was so thin and the springs were so old that you could touch the floor when sitting on it. Additionally, there were no extra linens for the sofa bed/inflatable mattress. There was an inflatable mattress but no charger for the inflating machine. We were asking to start the dishwasher but no soap was provided for it. No broom on site, vacuum did not work well. The only positive thing was the location, it is very close to the beach and other tourist areas.
Close to everything, parking spot for vehicle and size of condo was nice
There was cockroaches in the kitchen, the mattress of the second room was sagging in the middle, imposible to rest there, bathroom doors come off the rail, the sofa bed is unusable because it is broken, and plus there wasn't sheets for it, yes, there was an inflatable mattress but who wants to sleep on a inflatable mattress on their vacation?
This is a nice place for a family stay. It is easy to access to the bleach
The unit was nice. Great location, well equipped and clean. The shower needs to be updated, with water damage in the shower area. Unfortunately, everything was overshadowed by poor performance from the property mgt company Vacasa. We received a text saying the unit was ready early. We arrived at the unit, followed the instructions at the call box to gain entry and got voicemail. Two more attempts and still only voicemail. We then called Vacasa who provided an after hours number. We call that number and get voicemail again. The after hours location suggests calling the daytime number as an option but doesn’t provide a daytime number. A tenant saw we had a reservation was kind and let us in. The instructions then say go to the lock box and get the key. No key in the lock box., turns out the unit has a keypad lock, but the directions said it was a key - had to contact Vacasa again to get the keypad code. Arrival instructions need to be updated. Next day we leave the unit and find a family out front with the same problem we had. Vacasa and. VRBO need to take a good look at their customer support model. We made these comments to Vacasa employees but were not left with any confidence anything would be addressed. Hopefully this more public forum will drive changes and avoid problems for future travelers.
First impressions OK. Looking a little deeper was not really very clean sliding louver doors were filthy shower had mold in it.
Since we were only there, three days, we managed, but preferable was a little less than we had expected

We received nasty notes on the door from neighbors cause of an A/C unit that was on when we arrived. The pull out was not functional. Check in was extremely confusing. The paint in the bathroom shower area is hanging down. Place needs a serious update. The. Side table next to the couch is dangerous and not well made or balanced, ended up falling on one of our feet when it was bumped. The chairs for the dining are have been reupholstered but not well and has excess material hanging off them. The counters and stove were still dirty from the previous person. Any time we had a kind of question, comment, or concern support was prompt in response but dismissive.

Opposite of verbo adversities. Did verbo inspect before listing? It shouldn't be allowed to list at all. Everything is not good, lights of different shades, door/window doesn't close, oh the main door takes on good feet to open l.
Perfect location - short walk to beach or restaurants
