Our extended family stayed in three other rentals within a block, and all of them thought this rental was the nicest! We loved the sounds of the wind through the palms out the back windows, and the nearly instant access to the beach. <3 Our 3yo especially enjoyed the access to the protected swimming areas at Kuhio Beach, and you can't beat the location if you're interested in short walks to all the restaurants and shopping on Kalakaua, Kuhio, and Kapahulu Avenues. Also, if you're like me and even walking feels like a lot when it's hot out, there are both nearby bus stops and nearby bike rentals that are extremely reasonably priced.
We did have a couple of things we needed to call the property manager about, but we were always able to get a hold of someone within 10 minutes and get a resolution very quickly. Also note that there are feral chickens all over Hawaii, so you may need to decide between enjoying the sounds of sweet island breezes in the morning (which may include roosters crowing), or putting on the A/C or ocean waves white noise at night. Either way, we loved it, from the lovely lanai, to the clean bathroom and shower (actually everything was pretty clean), to the available appliances (crock pot, kettle, toaster, vacuum, etc.), and on and on.
Wish we could have stayed forever!

The unit was the perfect size for my husband & me for 4 nights. The location is what made me book this rental. Not in the thick of the Waikiki scene, close to lovely Kapiolani Park and a nice walk to the Diamond Head lookout.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this fantastic VRBO property in Honolulu, Hawaii, and it was truly a delightful experience. From the moment we arrived, we knew we had struck gold!
Location: The apartment is a hidden gem, ideally situated for exploring the best of Honolulu. Just a short walk away from Kuhio Beach, the popular Queensbreak restaurant, the zoo, aquarium, and Kapiolani Park, we couldn't have asked for a better location to soak in the beauty of the island.
Charming Ambiance: The apartment itself was a breath of fresh air. It was impeccably clean and exuded a sense of tranquility. The wonderful palms shading the breezy porch added a touch of paradise to our stay, creating a perfect spot to relax and unwind after a day of adventures.
Unique Charm: What truly set this property apart was its old school charm. The 4-story building had a nostalgic feel that transported us back in time, away from the behemoth antiseptic high rises nearby. Nestled on a quiet side street, we felt like we had discovered a hidden oasis in the bustling city.
Overall, our stay at this VRBO property was nothing short of magical. The combination of the perfect location, clean and welcoming space, and classic charm made it a memorable experience. I highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a true taste of paradise in Honolulu. Thank you to Mark, the host, for being super accommodating and a great communicator throughout our stay!

No complaints about the room, the property met my expectations at the price point. All issues I had were related to check in and parking. I was messaged the lock box location and combination number through VRBO. Could not enter. Multiple attempts to contact management (approx 1 hour) Informed that the lock box and combination info they gave me was outdated. Waited outside the building in an illegal parking spot until my phone calls were returned. Entered parking area with corrected info. A car was parked in our assigned spot. Again multiple attempts to contact management. I was told to park in one of two other spots. Then code for front door didn't work. I wasted more time waiting for another return call. I was then given the "service code" to enter. I requested a refund on my 3 days parking fees due to the issues described and time wasted at the start of my vacation. I was told, "too bad we aren't responsible" No effort was made to make up for the issues that were clearly their fault. Book a lower end property and get cheap results. I had no problem with the property itself, just the disorganization of the check in protocol, parking management and prompt return communication. I would rec booking with another owner and management team to avoid the frustrations we encountered. 3 days parking refund would've resolved my issues, but they wouldn't consider that as a solution. Instead, there was no further communication to check on us the rest of our trip.

Overall would reccommend a stay here. The location is close to the beach (1 block) and the craziness of waikiki. Pretty much in all the action. The 2 cabanas we stayed in had all the amenities for eating and preparing meals. The cabanas had a 4 out of 5 for cleanliness, and the cleaning staff could oay a little more attention to details. Due to staying in 2 difffernt cabanas there was some issues with with obtaining access to

The area was perfect. Close to everything.
The outside stairs were gross. The outside lights were very bright and shined into the room. I had to use a sleep mask. Better blinds or blackout curtains would be awesome.

Our accomodations here was great! Will definitely stay here again (if available). The location was perfect making it easy to access out of the constantly busy Waikiki, but the beach and other activities within walking distance. The room was fully equipped with all the conveniences and very spacious and the parking was extremely reasonable and within the building.
