This little condo was wonderful. It was clean and centrally located. It was a 5 minute walk to the beach, shops and restaurants. It was quiet and had lots of extra amenities such as a rice cooker and beach chairs. Communication was quick and friendly. Maja in the office one building over was super nice and helpful. The only downside was that the sofa bed was not comfortable enough to sleep on. Otherwise, the place was perfect.

We just home from a 9 night stay at Waikiki Sunset. The unit we stayed in was clean and comfortable. The little amenities like dish soap, new sponge, little shampoos and body wash were great additions. The primary bed was very comfortable and the owners were quick to respond. A two block walk to the beach, shopping and restaurants. When we go back to Waikiki we will definitely stay at Waikiki Sunset!

This is our 2nd time to stay in the Sunset building (not this particular room but the building). Everything is as described in the post. Kitchen is adequately stocked (although I didn’t cook any). The king size bed is comfortable and you can set on the lanai and enjoy the trade winds. It’s centrally located and we walked to Dennys on two separate occasions for breakfast. Parking is excluded with the room cost. Communication with the host is prompt. I highly recommend this place if you’re heading to Honolulu.

Clean, location is great, quiet, has everything you could possibly need for long or short staying. The main problems were internet (it was unstable and didn’t work from time to time) and ac (blowed too strong at the bedroom and was noisy)

Apartment had everything we needed. Location is fantastic and free parking is a bonus! We loved having beach towels, chairs and a cooler to bring to the beach. Nice touch! Shower was great, very good pressure. The management company is very responsive. I was impressed.
The only down side is that this building is showing its age. The elevators broke down 3x in the week we were there, necessitated long waits.
Other than that I would highly recommend this VRBO

Building is unassuming and a bit old (elevators are slow and one was out the whole time) but the unit was beautiful - the bed and couch were both very comfortable, everything was clean, and the view was pretty incredible. Lots of nice touches like plenty of bath and beach towels, beach chairs, and dishes if we wanted to cook or reheat food. The location cannot be beat. Highly recommend, would absolutely stay again.

Aloha, The unit, 812, was exactly as described online. It had a lovely view of the mountains to the left and you could see a piece of the ocean. The kitchen was fully equipped, beach chairs and towels are provided, and the customer service was excellent. The proximity of the building is only a short walk, 10 minutes, until your toes are in the sand. If I had to complain about anything, I would say to be patient during mid mornings and late afternoons waiting for the elevator, but I understand that this is not a reflection about the unit or the property management company. I would stay here again! Aloha!

We enjoyed our 4-night stay at this apartment, about 2 blocks from Waikiki Beach. We had a view of Diamond Head from our balcony; beach chairs, cooler, and beach towels were included. The king size bed was very comfortable. The property managers were very quick to answer any questions we had. There was an ABC store 1 block away for anything we forgot, and lots of restaurants in the area and along Waikiki Beach. Secure parking garage was appreciated. Would stay here again.

Really liked this property, located super conveniently close to the beach and park. I had my infant son and toddler daughter with me, we lii oh ced waking up in the morning and being in the beach within minutes. Apartment is super clean and has everything you need. The only thing is pull out couch is quite uncomfortable to sleep on. My parents came with me and slept rhere and said they had sore back in the morning. Bed in bedroom was comfy.
