Our stay in Oahu through VRBO was nothing short of spectacular. The condo was exactly as described, if not better, with nice ocean views, many amenities, and a welcoming, island-inspired decor that made us feel right at home.
The location was perfect—close to the zoo, Waikiki beach, Diamond Head, delicious local eateries and elegant restaurants, including a steak house.
The host was exceptional, providing clear and detailed instructions for check-in and check-out, and was always available to answer any questions we had. They even left a welcome box of Hawaiian chocolate covered macadamias nuts, which was a delightful touch.
The property was well-maintained, with everything we needed for a comfortable stay, including a fully equipped kitchen to make full meals, beach gear, and more than enough towels. We specially liked the beds. They were extremely comfortable.
Overall, this VRBO rental exceeded our expectations and made our Oahu vacation truly unforgettable. We highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a perfect Hawaiian getaway. Five stars all the way!

The location and view are absolutely amazing! We loved the space and the sliding doors for added privacy between the bedroom and fold out couch. The space was clean and had many useful supplies provided. The nightlights were a wonderful surprise and appreciated by young children. Thank you Dolly for your thoughtfulness and well organized instructions. We loved our stay and 100% would stay here again with our family of four. Mahalo!

Excellent. One block from beach. Surrounded by dining spots. Within walking distance of most things- if not, excellent bus route. Balcony view was beautiful. Enjoyed pool and hot tub

Thanks Dolly for an enjoyable stay! We loved the ocean view from both the balcony and kitchen table for all our meals. The condo was clean, comfortable and well stocked with supplies. Close to beaches, shops and restaurants. Having the parking pass was convenient and a big savings.

Dolly is a great host! She made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. We loved the location and never had any issues finding parking; we usually parked on the 3rd floor near Tower 2 elevator. We loved the beautiful ocean view and all the amenities like the pool, cafe (they sell Dole Whip!), and mini mart. The laundry room and trash were all close to our unit, which was super convenient. The beds were comfy and clean, and the dining chairs being regular lower ones (not those tall bar stools) was an added bonus for my little one. I will definitely try to rebook this place for our next Oahu trip!

Stayed at Dolly's place for a week with my sister and niece and it was perfect. It had a great view, all of the amenities (and then some) that we needed for a comfortable stay, a short distance to the beach, restaurants and shops in the area. The parking pass was definitely useful to have as we had rented a car during our stay. There was always a parking spot available in the garage.
Dolly was a great host, she was very responsive before our stay and the instructions she left were clear.
All in all, I would recommend to stay here and would definitely stay here again the next time I'm in Oahu!

Dolly was a fantastic host. The condo was located relatively close to everything in Waikiki. The condo was spacious and clean.
There were a few issues, but the host fixed the issues immediately.
The only downfall is the building itself. It is a rather older building and a few times two elevators broke down leaving just two elevators for 36 floors.
Overall a nice place for a good price.

We had a great stay in the condo and very much enjoyed the beach chairs and toys. The short walk to Waikiki Beach made it easy to carry the beach gear.
I would and will recommend this condo to friends.

Dolly was very easy to communicate with. The unit is as pictured, plus a deck box filled with beach gear. We really enjoyed our stay! Loads of restaurants, shopping and the beach are a few minutes walk. Great pool and play area for the grandkids. We highly recommend.

Dolly is a great host to communicate. The unit has nice view of ocean and Diamond Head in convenient location to many points of interests. Parking is free but finding space may be difficult at the lower floors but always available at the high floors. A fire drill was annoying in mid-night. I would return to this unit for future visits/

Has many little things for the beach that are a plus and don’t have to be traveling with. There was plenty of parking. Usually I just go to the 4th floor for parking.

I never write reviews but I just had to do it this time. This was our first time visiting Oahu and we had a fabulous stay here. Communication with the owener was amazing. We always received a quick response to any questions or concerns we had. The place comes well equipped with just about everything you need to enjoy your vacation. It is in a great location. The beach is a short walk, stores and restaurants are all around you. Having access to the parking garage was a big plus. We couldnt be more happier with our stay. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you so much.

Location! You can walk everywhere within Waikiki and across the AlaWai. The bus stop is easy to access too! Took my family back to where I once lived and found this condo. It had everything we needed as to being in a home. The views were amazing. Slept 4 adults comfortably to include the pull out bed. The internet was super handy to be able to work in paradise and the parking spot was an added bonus. I can cook here too! This is the condo you need to feel at home. Beach umbrella, chairs and boogie boards AND MORE! We will be rebooking!

Loved the views! Unit was clean and well equipped. Balcony was perfect.
Only downside was the electric bbqs were very hard to use as you had to check out a key AND put quarters in them.

Very clean and attractive. Features a full, well-equipped kitchen and (bonus!) free parking. A short walk away from Kapiolani Park and restaurants offering take-out. Proximity to Ala Wai and Kapahulu made it easy for me to visit family.

Great property! Walking distance to so many beach areas, stores, restaurants. This was a trip to celebrate my granddaughter’s birthday and graduation. The 2 beds in open bedroom and sofa bed gave each of us our own bed. Nice ocean view. Well stocked kitchen - and there’s a nice coffee/breakfast shop downstairs.

My husband and young daughter and I were fortunate to spend a very relaxing and fun vacation in Honolulu thanks to a great space to recharge and regroup. Dolly was so helpful with all our questions, even with flight delays inbound to Honolulu. It felt like a home away from home with all the creature comforts a family would need – drying rack for swim gear, sand castles, cooler, bed rails for our little one and so much more. The view was just great while we listened to music off the ipod player. Very clean, all the kitchen needs you could want! Grilling on the 6th floor pool deck was fun too! Parking spot was so convenient as we toured the whole island on our vacation. Close to grocery store, restaurants, shops and most importantly the beach! Thanks Dolly – we can’t wait to come back!

I was very lucky to stay at this condo for 3 months from Feb to May in 2011. It was true that the other previous guests commented, the condo was just PERFECT! The kitchen - all kitchen equipments are there, esp. rice cooker was helpful for us. coffee sugar, salt etc are also helpful, because supermarkets tend to have only big amount packages of them even though we need little of them. Living room - feel wider space compared with other standard rooms in Banyan, because this room doesn't have kitchen counter and high chairs. I prefer this condo's dining set. Interior was also nice! Bed room - twin bed was good for my family (2 adults and 2 kids). There was a sofa bed in the living room, but I didn't use it because beds in bed room were enough for my family. Mattress was clean and nice, and there were enough from small to big towels and beach towels. Moreover, I appreciated that Dolly prepared a pair of bed guards for my 3 yrs old son and baby bassinet for my new born baby. Bath room - very clean, hand shower was also helpful to wash the small child. Lanai - laundry hunger there was also helpful because I had a lots of laundry everyday for kids! (=> laundry and dryer room is just at the next door of the condo, which was also good. The noise was not a problem, maybe wall is enough thick in Banyan.) Also the condo equipped snorkel sets, floating tubes, swim rings for kids, boogie boards, beach chairs etc. Free Wi-Fi was also there. Ocean view was beautiful as the photos in the web site. I think the reason why this condo is so excellent is Dolly's personality. She has a great hospitality and she is always thinking about whether the guests enjoy their stay. We had a warning of Tsunami on March 11th. Dolly gave me a call and asked whether we are all right. I felt she was like a good friend or family in Hawaii. Thank you for Dolly and the condo, we really enjoyed our stay and had a great memory in Hawaii.

My husband and I stayed at this condo Dec. 27, 2010 to Jan. 4, 2011 and found its owners to be very personable, helpful and kind. Upon our arrival we were personally met at the lobby and briefly explained where everything was and how to operate such things as condo entry and garage. The condo was impeccable and everything from beach mats to ipod docking stations were supplied. Our travel companions rented units in the same tower and did not have keyless entry (really handy) and upscale furnishings as we did. I would highly recommend this condo to anyone.
