    Pretty much a perfect spot, great view, plenty of space, close to anything you could want to do, and right next to a bus stop for stuff that's further away. Quick responses from the owners whenever there were questions or changes. The kitchen was fully equipped with anything you could need. The beds were plenty comfortable. All around a fantastic stay all together. Given the chance to come back this is easily the first location I'll be looking at.

    Really liked our place. Very clean. The communication with our host was excellent. They provided plenty of linens. Additionally, the place had some games, kitchen supplies, and toiletries. The place could use some cosmetic updates but they are nothing that took away from the overall experience. The location is great. There's a beach that is about a 5-7 walk and it is perfect for snorkeling, surfing, or just relaxing. Plus, the location is only about a 10-15 minute drive from most restaurants, shopping, etc.

    This was the perfect start to our vacation. The condo was clean with comfortable beds and amazing views from the balcony. Would go again if ever needing a place in Honolulu again!!

    This is a beautiful condo with amazing ocean views! We loved staying in this area - far enough away from Waikiki to be out of the crowds, but close enough to walk into the action. The condo had everything we needed, including beach gear, which was much appreciated. We very much enjoyed our stay and sunsets on the deck!

    It's hard to beat the view and location, however, this property should not be listed as a 'family favorite' as it is NOT safe for small children. This is the main reason I left one star for accuracy of online listing. All of the window coverings have long, floor length dangling cords which are VERY unsafe for small children. This is a massive safety issue for toddlers or younger children. The other safety issue is the patio/lanai - it is shallow in depth and full of patio furniture including the owner's storage box which is pushed right up to the edge on one side. A small child could climb up and easily fall off. The patio door is broken and constantly was either stuck open, or stuck close - NOT ideal for safety of small children. The door needs to be replaced. We ran out of dishwasher tabs/soap, garbage bags and hand soap during our stay - a sufficient amount of these basic amenities should have been provided for our group (5ppl) and length of stay (9 nights). The property managed responded promptly but the actual items weren't provided until 2 days after the request. We wouldn't stay here again unless safety upgrades were made.

    We’ve stayed in this building before so we knew what to expect regarding the age & quaintness of it. But this particular condo needs some major maintenance, repairs and upgrades. The supplies are very limited and sparse including kitchen dishes, glassware, cookware and bathroom towels. The basics that were there need to be updated. There was nothing extra like placemats or a tablecloth etc. Many of the items that are pictured in the listing were not there. It just was not a welcoming stay unlike other VRBO listings but was very clean which is always appreciated. The management replied quickly to any messages. Check in is easy. The best thing going for it is the location and the large balcony and the outdoor grounds are great! We enjoy the area.
