About this property

Spacious and recently renovated 2BR/2BA Waikiki condo just 1 block from the beach! Sleeps 6 comfortably with full kitchen, free parking, and everything you need for a perfect retreat. This is Mauka Makai, your gateway to the bustling and serene beauty of O‘ahu, nestled between the majestic Ko‘olau mountain range and the pristine Pacific Ocean. Our upgraded amenities, appliances, and furniture make this exquisite two-bedroom, two-bathroom condo a harmonious blend of modern convenience and Hawaiian charm. Did we mention the free, dedicated parking spot?

THE SPACE

Amidst some of the finest hotels in Waikīkī, you'll be situated in a well-maintained and secure environment. Infused with aloha, Mauka Makai beckons you with its unparalleled comforts and thoughtful amenities. Walk to the nearby Walls Beach, a bodyboarding hotspot, or swim in the walled-in waters of Prince Kūhiō Beach, both a block away.

Looking for somewhere to stay for a week or two? Our elegantly outfitted condo boasts a kitchen suitable for a culinary enthusiast, inviting you to unleash your creativity, when not dining at the thousands of restaurant choices within a short walk or drive. With 860 square feet of living space, complimentary in-unit laundry facilities, and whisper-quiet air conditioning in every room, your stay promises both indulgence and convenience. Relax and unwind on the spacious lanai, savoring your morning coffee amidst the gentle ocean breeze. The condo has three dining areas: the counter (3), the table (4-6) and the lanai (4).

The space within Mauka Makai is designed to cater to your every need. Scandia Towers was originally built for long-term residence, making it feel far more spacious for the same square footage as other units in Waikīkī. Sink into the embrace of memory foam mattresses on every bed, after a day of adventure, awakening refreshed and rejuvenated. The large bedroom offers a versatile layout, accommodating various sleeping arrangements (one king or up to three twin beds), while the small bedroom offers a queen-size bed. Even the sleeper-sofa in the living room sports a full-sized memory foam mattress. The unit is also equipped with a premium twin-size inflatable mattress and a play pen for the youngest people in your life.

Both bedrooms offer ergonomic chairs and sit/stand adjustable desks, intended for those traveling for work with the family, or with colleagues. The kitchen is fully equipped with brand new appliances including full-sized fridge, oven, microwave, dishwasher, and a washer/dryer. A coffee maker, blender, stand mixer, air fryer, electric kettle, rice maker, and toaster are available for your convenience along with pots, pans, dish sets, cooking and dining utensils.

Our commitment to your comfort extends beyond the walls of our condo. Explore Waikīkī and O‘ahu Beaches with ease, as we provide beach chairs, umbrellas, toys, body boards, and snorkeling gear for your convenience. After a day of adventure, immerse yourself in Hawaiian culture with our curated library of Hawaiian books or play popular games, and enjoy the local artwork adorning every room.

Mauka Makai caters to families, friends, and business travelers alike. With desks in both rooms, USB plugs throughout, smart TVs set-up for casting, high-speed internet, and ample space for private, small-team collaboration, we ensure the right blend of work and leisure. Discover the essence of island living at Mauka Makai – where luxury meets aloha spirit. Even if you're staying for just a few days, you won't want to leave.

Prefer to walk? Within one city block, you’ll find: 3 ABC stores (including a premium store right next door), 2 Starbucks, a Domino’s with sit-down or pickup, Island Vintage Shave Ice and Acai, Arancino di Mare (Italian), Mac 24/7 (breakfast and beyond), two roof-top bars (Deck and Tiki’s), a sports bar (Lulu’s), Teddy’s Bigger Burgers, Denny’s Restaurant, 3 Biki bike stations, moped/scooter rentals around the corner, the Zoo, beach volleyball, the Kapahulu pier, and Kapi‘olani Park. Within a mile are countless restaurants and shops—all that Waikīkī has to offer.

Want to go further? In addition to traditional taxis, both Uber and Lyft operate seamlessly within the city, and our efficient bus system offers extensive coverage across the entire island, including to and from Daniel K. Inouye International Airport. Worry-free parking will make renting a car more enjoyable if you’re seeking the freedom to explore the island at your own pace. And there are several car rental options within a few blocks (Enterprise, SIXT, Thrifty, and Avis) should you decide you only need a car for a few days.

GUEST ACCESS

As the condo is in a secure building, guests will require a security fob to enter the building and will be assigned an access code to enter the unit.

OTHER THINGS TO NOTE

Shortly before you arrive, you'll be given a code to access the unit for the duration of your stay. A Lock box is located next to the resident manager's office in the basement where you will find a key fob for the building. Additional fobs are available upon request.

The parking stall is located in the far-left corner of the lower level. It’s marked LP. DO NOT PARK IN EMPTY STALLS OR YOU WILL BE TOWED. As the space is a bit tight, minivans (sliding doors) or smaller cars are recommended.

MISCELLANEOUS: The phone in the unit can be used to make calls to the mainland and Canada as well as admit guests into the building from the callbox outside the lobby. Mauka Makai is located in the resort zone area of Waikīkī, which allows short-term vacation rentals. State and county taxes are 13.25% TAT (Transient accommodation tax) and 4.71% GET (General excise tax).

Property was wonderful but parking was awful.

Good price for a Waikīkī condo! We really enjoyed the use of the beach chairs and boogie boards. (A lot of snorkel gear and other beach toys were available which we didn’t use). The building is very secure but there is only one key fob that allows you access to the building so if you have multiple people in your party that want to do different things that makes it difficult.

Excellent location of property. Everything pretty handy. Parking tight so need to be a decent driver to park. Kitchen fully stocked with appliances and showers great!

Right next to an ABC store. Many restaurants nearby. Parking spaces very tight and difficult to maneuver. Short walk to the beach and night life. Older elevator that quit working for a night.

It was a very clean spacious property. It is pretty well placed in Waikiki. Everything we wanted to do was easily within walking or Lyft distance. Love that the ABC store is literally next door, steps away!Couple of things to be aware of though.1. Because it is in a busy area, there may be some loud folks outside around nighttime. There was only really one night of that, but if you are a light sleeper, might want to bring earplugs.2. There's only one FOB to get into the towers and to ise the elevator. If travellings with a big family, plan accordingly so no one gets locked out late at night.Other than that, good pick to stay!

The condo was exactly as described. Clean and well equipped. Location was really convenient to shops and restaurants. We would definitely stay here again if we come back to Honolulu!

Location was great to visit Waikiki Beach, Diamond Head and Pearl Harbor. All kitchen and beach amenities were provided. Parking is provided, but don't stay here if you have a larger SUV. We had a Tahoe and could barely get out the driver's door if someone was parked next to us - typical large city parking. We were awakened at 4:00 am both mornings by loud noises from the residents on the shared wall side of the condo. This went on until after 6:30am. We contacted the host the first morning. They apologized for things out of their control and said the building manager was contacted. We didn't stay the third night.

We highly recommend this condo. It was well equipped and spotless. Not noisy at all. Check out the food trucks around the corner!

The condo was above and beyond my expectations. We enjoyed the balcony and the comfortable furniture. We were just a block and a half from the beach with shopping and restaurants all around. It was a secure and quiet property and the included parking space was a big benefit. Would definitely stay here again
