The communication was super friendly and helpful before the visit. Hosts went above and beyond to be accommodation and to make stay a good one. Apartment had an amazing view and was clean and quiet and had all the amenities that one would need to be comfortable- including blackout blinds and good breeze and air conditioning and WiFi. No dishwasher but Laundry was across the hall and convenient and filtered water in tap was appreciated. The complex was well located near restaurants and a block from the beach and the pool and hot tubs and grill area was fantastic. Parking in the lot was included and spots were available and easy to coordinate at check in. Could not ask for a better location or place to stay or better hosts! Would return here everytime!!!

The property is ideally situated in the heart of Waikiki and with parking! Views from the unit are great, and with an end unit, could even see diamond head. The unit is well appointed, with a complete and well stocked kitchen and everything else you need. We would definitely stay here again!

This felt like a home, great view of the mountains, open floor plan, very clean. A/C maintained the entire home. Bed was very comfortable, Cathy was very helpful, she communicated everything we needed to know in a timely manner. Couldn't have had a better stay or experience, thank you for everything.

We’re so happy we stayed at Cathy’s apartment near the Ala Wai in Waikiki. Gorgeous view facing the mountains and my childhood hone of Manoa Valley. Refreshing cross breezes because this is a corner unit. Best bed we’ve ever slept in! Immaculate, lovely space which was a super, relaxing vacation home. Also super to have a parking space included. Would highly recommend it to anyone.

Good location, right in Waikiki. The Condo is on the 31st floor: great views of the mountains and quiet enough for someone seeking a little bit of tranquility. It's spacious and you'll find everything you need.
The hosts are wonderful people, they really take care of everything in order to make your stay a pleasant one.
I really recommend this unit.

I’ve just come back from a fantastic stay in this gorgeous condo in Waikiki. Where do I start? The condo was perfect! Spotlessly clean, equipped with pretty much everything you could possibly need or want and the most comfortable bed you could imagine. It is a corner unit so it is very spacious and you can open the windows on both sides so the nice Hawaiian breeze just flows through. It is beautifully decorated in Hawaiian style, and so comfortable that I really felt at home. And the view is amazing! The owner is such a pleasure to deal with and she truly cared that I enjoy my stay and have everything I needed. I really felt like a valued guest. I cannot recommend this condo highly enough and I am already planning a return visit soon. It books up quickly for good reason - the best quality places always do. Do yourself a favor - don’t look any further and book this place now. You won’t regret it.

Great attention paid to our comfort, from checking in, to an email from the owners asking how could they improve the experience. I plan to rebook next year for a longer stay. Perfect location, one block to the beach, two blocks to the zoo. Beautiful views from the corner unit on the 31st floor.
