The property is only a couple of blocks from Waikiki Beach. From the kitchen window, we could see the beach and the ocean. Free on-site parking was convenient and secure.
Lee and Brandie were great hosts, who provided excellent snd prompt communication.

We stayed 12 nights at this condo. Centrally located. One block from Waikiki! Everything is accessible by bus here…no need to get a car! If you’re a Sr. Citizen, you can get a bus pass which will allow you to travel anywhere for only $3.00 MAX per day! Definitely worth the trip to the Transit Station.
The hosts are wonderful. Excellent communication! We would stay here again!!

Spacious comfortable 1 bedroom apartment with large fully equiped galley kitchen. Close to the beach, diamondhead, the Zoo and many other places of interest. It included a parking spot with easy access.
A great number of othe amenities to make ones stay easier and more enjoyable. Having back pack beach chairs and a beach umbrella was perfect.
Overall a great location with great amenities and parking. The hosts were quick to respond to questions and very helpful!

The cover photo of the Beautiful view is totally misleading. The only way you get the view is to STAND AT THE KITCHEN WINDOW or STAND ON TOP OF THE BED. The 3 fans and wall air conditioner had so much dust caked on the blades that my husband had to find a brush to clean them.

The owners made checking in very easy and follow up emails to make sure everything was up to par. Very clean and thoroughly impressed with the whole condo. By the end it felt like home and i was sad to leave. 10 minute walk to the beach, great location and felt very safe. They had everything you could possible need and we will defintiley be back. Defintiley recommened this place if you plan on cominf to waikiki

This unit was perfect for our small family for a week stay. Close walk to the beach and everything else waikiki has to offer. It has just about everything youll need for the beach as well even a little cart to roll it all down there with (we didnt utilize it though). Our 3 year old slept on the pull out but I dont think an adult would find it very comfortable. Would definitely stay again.

We had a fabulous week of fun and relaxation! The condo adequately supplied cookware, dishes, etc. As well as nice chairs and toys for the beach. Everything we wanted to do was in walking distance or we took a tour on a bus. Groceries were conveniently available via instacart so not having a rental car was no problem. We would definitely stay here again!

This was my second stay at the Aston Banyon Waikiki. I feel very comfortable in that building. I like the lobby with the koi pond. We chose this property since there is a coffee shop in the lobby . We brought breakfast back to our condo.
Location is wonderful. I have now stayed in Waikiki fours times but found July was extremely crowded. This may be a post pandemic phenomenon.
The condo was clean and well stocked . The only thing lacking was additional blanket in bedroom. Building laundry was next door. In fact it was ripped up the day before we left. I think it was being upgraded. That's another handy feature.
Keypad access was a bonus. Parking availability was another plus. No assigned space but we always found a spot. Doesn't matter what floor you park on since the elevator is easily accessible.

It was a great time. Nice to have a place close to the beach and near most of what we needed. The mini-mart downstairs was useful. We had the opportunity to recharge in between activities. It was also supper useful to have parking included. The place was nice and clean.

Well maintained condo in absolutely great location. The view on Diamond Head from the balcony is gorgeous.
The condo is clean and the kitchen well equipped. Free parking is included. Easy walking access to the beach and restaurants.
On the counter part, the bed mattress has seen better days and there was only one functional beach chair.
Overall, our family of four had a great time and would stay there again!

Overall good place to stay , waking distance to restaurants and Waikiki beach.the only thing I notice is that the pool and hot tub is always full. I think a bunch of group would just decide to nest in the hot tub and not get out so others will have a turn too..

First of all let start by saying this property is one of the nicer condos on site. We had family who stayed in other condos on site and they we not even close to niceness of this condo.
Check in was easy, room was clean, all the extra add ons were amazing, location is spot on, security was great, free parking spot was icing on top of the cake.
Cons.. NONE....

This is a great condo in a fantastic location to be “home base” for your stay in Ohau. You can be on the beach in 5 minutes, walk everywhere in the surrounding area, take the bus which has major stops right outside the building, or take advantage of the free parking and rent a car to go around the island. The parking garage is tight so I’m glad I rented a smaller car. As far as the actual room goes, as long as you are familiar with how condos operate and aren’t expecting resort level amenities, you’ll be fine. Yes, the building and room could use updated maintenance but it fit our needs. Hosts were great and easy to communicate with. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook and enjoy breakfast. I enjoy tea so I did bring my own kettle after reaching out to the hosts and finding out the coffee maker didn’t have a separate hot water maker. Super easy to pack so no big deal there.
My only complaint (that the hosts have nothing to do with) is Waikiki is noisy at night. The hotel pool especially can get extremely rambunctious with children screaming but enjoying themselves. Definitely wish the building would invest in some type of sound proofing. We wanted the windows open as much as possible for the trade winds so just slept in ear plugs. Building management does a great job of getting families out of the pool by 9:15 or so every night so you just have city noise at that point.
All in all come in with the proper expectations and you’ll have a great time in this unit.

The condo was very convenient to restaurants and the beach. It was very clean. It was cool enough during the day that the windows could be open and at night it was nice to have AC to sleep. Everyone at the Banyon was friendly. Having a parking space was definitely an added bonus. I would stay here again.

Grandma, mom, and 10 week old baby came to Hawaii for a wedding (left both husbands and the toddler home!). Great location for our wedding agenda. Relatively quiet for Waikiki , great parking. All kitchen utensils present but no basic food stuffs (salt, pepper, oil, coffee). No problem, just something to know.
Great host communication

The condo was beautiful and the location couldn't have been better. There's also a beautiful very large lobby and a starbucks next door in the marriott. A quick block to the beach and great shopping even in the plazas that are connected to the marriott next door. We did rent a car for a few days and the ability to have a parking space in the condo parking structurw was invaluable.Thank you Lee and Brandie!

The building property is a bit dated, stuffy, and could certainly use some updating with paint and carpet cleaning. Slightly better than Soviet block style housing. The unit itself was clean and unremarkable but sustainable for Waikiki and cheaper than a comparable hotel room, minus the comfort. It’s small for any more than just 2 adults. If the couch sleeper is utilized it takes up most of the useable space. The main bed is in ‘dire’ need of a new mattress. My wife and I slept in two separate pits with little to no comfort and no means of contact minus the struggle to climb out. No recommended for back pain sufferers. Our daughter fared little better on the sleeper sofa and found it to be better slept on as a couch. It’s very noisy at night in Waikiki so opt for the AC and all windows/doors closed for a little quiet. Oh, there’s also a sliding door divider that separates the bed from the other area…. Beware the painful “toe stubber” track on the ground. We all fell victim. The unit was clean and prepared. The garage was nice and easy to navigate and a perk for not having to schill out $50 a day for hotel parking.

My family and I stayed in this u it for 10 nights the location of The Waikiki Banyan is perfect close to the beach and strip.

This was our first time to Hawaii and this property was a perferct location. Even though we rented a car during our entire stay - used to visit North Shore, Pearl Harbor, Diamond Head and mutliple eating locations, this property was located within 5 minutes to the beach, and walking distance to shopping and mulitple eating locations as well. It was a great place to stay. Pearl Harbor was amazing, Diamond Head do the walk at 6 a.m. well worth getting up early! Visit Fete resturant for the best chicken sandwich, Hulua Pie at Dukes! I would stay here again.

Loved that the condo kitchen was stocked with what we needed, including a rice cooker!! Perfect location, great size and value for what we paid. We also loved the pool and playground. Would definitely stay here again!

The best part of this property is the location! 1 block from all the hustle and bustle of Waikiki. My 7 year old daughter and I walked to different restaurants, shops, and of course shaved ice locations throughout our stay. We also walked to the Zoo which was only a few blocks away. The room itself is comfortable and just what we needed. We really only slept there and spent the rest of the time out playing. The building itself had friendly and helpful staff (the security guards going into the parking garage we’re always smiling and had an enthusiastic “Aloha!”). You can tell it’s a bit older than some of the surrounding buildings, and has had its fare share of love and use over the years. The pool area has older “vintage” reclining loungers… with the pvc strips, so it’s nice to put your towel down first so you don’t stick to them. With the slight breeze, I think the outside air was cooler than the pool, but I think that’s just the way it is in this climate with the intense sun. (This is the only pool I ever swam in during my multitiple trips to Hawaii so I don’t have a lot of comparison… the ocean is the best way to cool down 😊).
For reference… The building is located next to a health facility including mental health offerings, and there seemed to be a few homeless people there on a regular basis. They didn’t bother us at all, however as a mid 30’s woman on vacation with only her 7 year old daughter, we made sure to be aware of our surrounds and just didn’t go down that street.
Overall we had a lovely experience and again the location is everything!! Happy vacationing and Aloha!!

I truly enjoyed staying here. The condo was clean & spacious. I was grateful for the free parking. Our room overlooked the pool from the living room. We were able to see the ocean from the kitchen side. There were beach necessities such as chairs, boogie boards & an umbrella. We were so happy this was available to bring to the beach. There was an AC unit in the wall plus electrical fans. They were really useful since it can get hot in the rooms. We were able to buy food from the mini mart & coffee shop downstairs. There are other options in the neighborhood as well. This location was perfect! I would definitely stay here again!

The condo is very conveniently located near public transportation, the beach, stores, and activities. There was enough space for our family to be comfortable for the week. The view of Dimond Head from the balcony is beautiful. There were bodyboards and snorkel gear that we used at Queens Beach which is a 10 min walk up the road. The pool and playground area on the 6th floor was a hit with the kids too. Very enjoyable. I would recommend this VRBO

This condo was in the perfect location. It’s about a block away from Honolulu Zoo and Waikiki beach. We loved that it was quiet enough at night and when we wanted the night love, we just walked about half a mile for shopping, bars and food. My youngest is 7 and my teenager is 15 and we all enjoyed our stay here. When we were too lazy to walk to the beach, we took advantage of the pool
and jacuzzi. Very family friendly. Lee and Brandi were great host and sent plenty of messages leading up to our stay in case we needed anything. Mahalo! :)

It’s always good to have a private rental experience go smoothly and have the property be at least as nice as posted. That was the case here. Everything worked well - communication, cleanliness, location, parking, checkin, etc. And of course the beach stuff (umbrella, chairs, body boards) was a nice perk! The only non positive comment which is purely an FYI for travelers is this: remember this is still a managed shared property so don’t plan on having cooking things like oils and seasonings provided. We loved that they had salt and pepper but otherwise used what we had brought or bought other items. Again, it wasn’t an expectation, just wanted to pay it forward as a heads up! Thanks for the wonderful stay!

We've previously stayed at the Banyan. Location is excellent close to shops, restaurants, easy walk to to the beach. Originally thought the Ocean View was from the Lanai however was from bedroom and kitchen window. Sufficiently stocked with needed amenities. Condo was clean and tidy. Free Garage Parking is a must if you rent a car. Great communication with Brandie. Ended up staying 2 additional nights for an awesome price. Only negative would be is to replace the bed.
Would definitely rent again in future felt like OHANA.
MAHALO!

I stayed for a week, and the property had everything I needed. Parking was convenient, and the location was away from the beach a couple blocks, exactly where I wanted to be. It was clean and colorful. It was nice having lots of towels as well as the use of beach chairs and other beach amenities. I appreciated Lee's willingness to give me a slightly later check-out too.

Visited Oahu for the first time as a newlywed and can't reccomend this place enough. From the promt email communication to navigating the island, everything was great. If you are renting a car, I highlhy reccomend renting a location (such as this) that comes with a parking pass. Also, having beach chairs, towels and beach gear was so helpful! We did a lot of cooking due to dietary needs and had everything we needed. Highly reccomend staying here.

Really enjoyed our stay here! The location is perfect, just a few streets off the main road so that it's more quiet when you want to rest at night. The unit is also farther from the elevator so you don't hear people coming and going in the early morning. The place was clean and well stocked with items for a beach day. The only thing was that the fold out couch bed was a bit difficult to operate, but we figured it out in the end. The floor does get dusty easily, but I think that's more due to the wind blowing in from the balcony. The unit faces a direction that gets quite the strong breeze during the evening.

We enjoyed this rental because it was such a short walk to the beach. The condo had what we needed so we did not have to spend extra money. It included parking and the kitchen helped us save money not having to eat out at every meal. The pool was enjoyable and very clean. The owners responded very quickly to us while we were there. I would stay again!

The location is very convenient for walking to Waikiki Beach, the zoo, the aquarium and shopping. There is a parking spot included with the rental and a bus stop on the corner if you need it. We loved that there were beach chairs, umbrella, boogie boards, etc for the beach. The coffee shop on the lobby level has great selections of light food ootions, and there is a recreation deck & snack shack on level 6. (We found the pool & hot tubs to be crowded). Lee amd Brandie are great to deal with, as we had a snag with our flight out (thanks to hurricane Lane), and they were gracious and quick to accommodate.

This apartment was perfect for us! It was a delight to walk in to such a spacious living area! We were surprised at the wonderful views of the sea from the bedroom and kitchen windows and the Diamond Head views from the lanai were also captivating! We had everything we required here and enjoyed the easy stroll to the beaches, shops and restaurants. The bus to Ala Moana is right outside, couldn't be easier! We had no need to use the air conditioner as with all the windows open the lovely sea breeezes flowed through.
The only hiccup during our stay was that there was only maximum two lifts working at any one time, so wait times were excessive, sometimes we opted to walk down the 12 floors. I'm sure this will be sorted soon as many people were unhappy with the lifts.
Thank you Lee and Brandie for introducing us to your wonderful apartment! We will definitely return and recommend to others!

We stayed here for our first trip to Hawaii. We loved how close it was to the beach and how central it was to do day trips all over the island each day. We used the bbqs for dinners while the kids hung out in the pool. You have a very tidy place. Thank you very much.

We enjoyed our stay at the Waikiki Banyan. The owners were great at communicating from the time of booking and during our stay. They responded to our questions within the hour, if not minutes! The condo had everything that we needed (e.g., cleanliness, space, kitchen, laundry, beach equipment, free parking), and things we didn't realize we needed (e.g., cooler, umbrella, stroller, reusable shopping bags). Everything was thought of! It had good views of Diamond Head from the balcony and the beach from the kitchen. We enjoyed the 6th floor amenities (e.g., playground, pool, hot tub, barbecue area, basketball/tennis court), especially the convenience of the Banyan Snack Shop when you just want to enjoy some Dole Whip or shave ice. We didn't try the coffee shop or the convenience store downstairs, but it's there. There was live music in the lobby on Friday. It's also conveniently located. Just a quick walk to the beaches, shopping, and lots of different restaurants. We had fun exploring! Only a few suggestions for improvement: the bathroom needs updating and the bed could use a firmer mattress.

We felt very much t home in this perfect condo for the two of us! We have been coming to Oahu for ten years. Our son and daughter in law live here and we were here celebrating the birth of our first grandson! We love to stay in Waikiki and this spot was ideal. We especially appreciate the free parking pass...huge in Waikiki! This condo has everything needed for fun in the sun and the beach. The amenities and the way the condo is so well equipped will be bringing us back! We are also VRBO owners and understand the work and effort that goes into providing a great rental. We have found our new place! Thank you.

Great location and super close to the beach. It was great having all of the beach equipment for the children (body boards, flippers, beach umbrellas and esky) just to name a few.
The place was clean and tidy. We really loved our stay. Our 7 year old twin girls cant wait to go back.
Lee was always very prompt with responding to any question I may have.
I would highly recommend this condo.

This unit in the Waikiki Banyon complex is on a corner so you get nice breezes pulling through the apartment when you open doors and windows. The unit is well supplied with beach chairs, boards, toys, umbrella, etc., as well as everything you need in the kitchen. It overlooks the big activity deck and pools 6 floors below the unit, and it comes with parking at no additional cost. We saw fireworks over Waikiki Beach from the kitchen window! Also, the owners were very easy to work with before the trip.
Karen M.
February 2018
The unit is very comfortable and clean. Because the condo is close to the beach, it is noisy at night and since you can't run the air conditioner all night it is hard to sleep with the windows open. Otherwise, it is a perfect distance to the beach with parking garage (public parking is hard to find).

I have been going to Hawaii now for 15 years and have stayed at the Hilton Hawaiian Village and the Marriott, but I am never more satisfied than when I rent a condo for my stay, and this rental offers everything (and more) than a traveler needs.
This particular trip was a family reunion of sorts. We had 32 family members converge on Waikiki, staying in several condos at the Waikiki Banyan and Island Colony. I had always stayed at the Island Colony previously but due to the location I decided to give the Banyan a shot this time. GREAT DECISION!!!
To start, prior to arrival I received a welcome email from the owners with all the necessary information to get into the condo. This arrived in plenty of time so that I didn't stress about the how-tos of the stay.
We arrived about 6pm after an exhausting flight and that evening we dropped our luggage in the condo quickly showered and left to join family for drinks and dinner. It wasn't until the next morning when we woke up that we were able to unpack and assess the unit, and we were more than happy with our choice.
The sliding glass doors open towards Diamondhead and the view, though beautiful, is limited due to buildings. The beach view seen in the pictures is from a small window in the kitchen, and unless you plan on standing by the refrigerator for your trip, you will never see that view. It didn't matter much to us because we didn't go to Waikiki to stare out windows, we were there to be a part of Waikiki.
The condo is very roomy and the island themed living room furnishings very well maintained and comfortable. The bed was a little smaller than I would have liked (I am 6'2") but i still slept well each night.
What I didn't expect was the generous amount of snorkeling and beach equipment and toys. We always bring our own snorkel equipment, but we put the boogie boards, beach chairs and extra snorkel equipment to good use when the entire group of 32 caravanned around the island and stopped at Bellow Beach (my favorite) for an afternoon.
Though we didn't use it, the kitchen was also very well equipped. Anything needed to prepare a meal (plus more) is there.
In Waikiki, I seek comfort and cleanliness over luxury, and this roomy unit was perfect.
I was able to compare our condo with others on the 29th and 21st floors and this was by far the largest with the best layout. I commented several times that I could see myself living (full time) in this condo! WE WILL RETURN!

We spent 5 days in this condo in Waikiki at the Waikiki Banyan. It was very clean and well maintained. It is centrally located and easy to walk everywhere. Easy accessibility to main beach in Waikiki and plenty of restaurants. The bed is not a queen bed and you can't see Diamond Head because the view is blocked by a hotel. The owners were very easy to communicate with and other than two things mentioned before, everything else is as stated. We felt very safe and walked everywhere. Two real benefits are free parking and no resort fee is required. If you are looking for a condo for two people, it's fine. There were only two of us and it worked fine. There were chairs, and other beach activity equipment available. It was a very good value and enjoyed our stay.

This was our fifth time in Waikiki and we usually stayed at a hotel with a small kitchenette. When we decided to try a condo we were a little nervous because you never know what you will get.
Before our arrival we contacted Lee and Brandi to see if we could arrive in our room earlier as our flight was arriving in the early afternoon. We were allowed. When we walked into the condo we were amazed at the large space. After staying with a hotel with two small children in previous years, we knew this was going to be great. We loved the full kitchen, as our children don't like to eat out at restaurants. It was also great that on Christmas day we made sugar cookies. We loved the space for our kids to play on the floor and open presents. I loved the lanai. Everyone morning I would get up before the sun rose. I would sit out there and watch the sun come up over Diamond Head. Absolutely breath taking. Also sometimes in the late afternoon, when sitting on the lanai, I could hear the lions faint roaring from the zoo that is just a few minute walk from the condo. It was amazing. We loved how close it was to the part of the beach that we usually go to. My children loved the pool and tennis court.
Lee and Brandi are absolutely amazing owners. We will definitely be staying at their condo again!!!

Great location and place. The main part we were disappointed with was the pool/spa area being closed for renovation the whole time we were there. We had to find another place for spa services which was less convenient and since you can see the pool area from the condo it just kept teasing us. Fortunately the owners let us know prior to our arrival so we were mentally prepared for that but it would have been perfect if it was available. :) The owner was also quick to reply to any questions we had. Thank you!

We had a great time in Waikiki! Your place was easy to get to and was perfect for our needs!

We stayed in this condo for 6 weeks. excellent location. walked everywhere. The condo is as pictured and was spotless upon our arrival. The extra window in the bedroom and kitchen are a great asset. The kitchen is fully equipped. The beach chairs and beach items were truly appreciated. Loved it and will return. Lee and Brandie Melville are great owners.
