It’s definitely not luxurious! All the pillows were flat and the bed was uncomfortable. There were not enough beach towels for all of us. Two of the burners on the stove did not work so our meals took hours to make. The windows were missing the latches, so you could not close some of the windows all the way. Also, a day before arriving I called about the cancellation policy and the person I spoke with said they would have someone call me back. They never called back! They canceled my reservation! The location and the view were the two best qualities.

We are part of the hula group from N.CA who come to Waikiki every year to dance hula and enjoy the ocean, the people and bring some aloha back home. We book several units so we can be close together and travel around the island to experience different beaches, museums and activities. The location of the Banyon tower 1 and 2 are excellent and having the parking is very convenient. The units are just right for two people to share. It’s so much better than staying at the hotel and quite reasonably! Mahalo to the management that made easy to book it and had great communication with us before!

The location was great with an excellent view of the ocean. The unit had most amenities and even had some sand toys. Handles on the drawers located in the kitchen would have been helpful. The windows are single pane and one can hear almost all the noises at night. The blinds are also super light and the sleeping area was super bright at night. It would have been nice to have been advised of the renovations being done to the unit next door. The grinding noises during the day was quite disruptive and the water was shut off for 5 hours one day, that started at 9am. The parking was included, which made things very convenient for having a vehicle.

I was visiting for my 50th birthday with 3 girlfriends. It was a comfortable room and loved the set up. The view was amazing! I stayed in tower 1 over spring break with my family, but loved the view even more from Tower 2. Had one issue with the shower, but the host got back to me right away to explain how to use it. There were instructions on the back of the toilet but they were covered by extra toilet paper rolls. I had an amzing experience and so did my friends! Thank you!

Our experience at this vacation rental was nothing short of amazing. The process of checking in and out was super easy, making our arrival and departure smooth and hassle-free. The ambiance was quiet and relaxing, providing a perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle. One of the highlights of our stay was the amazing view that greeted us each morning. Additionally, the location couldn't have been better with just a short, pleasant walk to the beach and a variety of dining options nearby. We could easily stroll to grab a bite at almost any type of eatery we desired. This rental not only met but exceeded our expectations, and the close proximity to both the beach and delightful food spots was the cherry on top. We can't wait to return and relive this enjoyable experience.

We had good experience during our 4 night stay! Great view with close proximity to the beach. The place was pretty clean and looked as advertised. Pretty good coffee shop near the lobby which was a bonus. Free parking was nice but finding a parking spot later on the day was not. There were no cooking essentials, (salt, pepper, cooking spray) not enough towels for a 4 night stay, and the pool area left a lot to be desired. Overall this is a solid place to stay in Waikiki.

The unit was exactly as advertised. The views are great and it's in a fantastic location in Waikiki. Very short walk to the beach and to all the shops and restaurants. Bathroom is tiny, but clean. I was worried about elvator wait times, being on the 29th floor, but there are 4 very fast elevators and we never waited very long at all. Free parking was great! Clearance is really low, so I was glad to have a small car. Pool and hot tubs are very clean and nice, but close pretty early. Overall, it was a great place for my family to stay.

A great size for a family of 3, the balcony has amazing views of the water. It is peaceful and quiet, great location, beds are a little uncomfortable but the extra kitchen appliances and basics make this place a great stay. Location is close to the beach, but far enough away from the busyness. Having the car park made for a perfect stay. Wish we had spent longer in this apartment.

Our first stay in the city. Our drive here was a bit scary from airport. Took us through a seedy part of town. Lots of homeless. But when we arrived to condo we were pleasantly surprised to see how close we were to the beach and heart of Waikiki. We were on 29th floor. Elevators were slow at best. Hard to maneuver between so many riders. Have time. Because you will be waiting. Pros- amenities such as AC, refrig,stove,coffee maker, toaster, utensils,plates, towels, and some pool/beach items to use if needed. Trash shoot on floor. Free parking. Bidet. Nice to have- Pool and spa area great. Warm water. BBQ’s to use(coin operated). Ocean view is a big plus. Cons- toaster needs replacing. Toasts only on one side. Stove needs replacing- only one side gets hot. Super slow to cook anything. Refrig. Leaks due to condensation. On one side. But keeps food cold. AC is super loud. Half of back room never gets cold. Doesn’t reach that area. Can get stuffy.Sheets , towels, and such need replacing. Very dingy and old.New broom needed. Very bad. The entire building needs renovating from popcorn ceiling to cracks in walls, stained carpeting, and broken door safety chain. The washing machine (one in each floor supposedly) was broken. We purchased a safety lock from Amazon. Travel one. Glad we did!
Overall if you aren’t going to be in your room most of the time. Or are traveling in a group I would recommend. Not for those wanting luxury or resort type experience. Call it like glamping!

The place was perfect for what we needed! Didn’t spend much time there but nice place to rest our heads. Would have preferred bigger beds and better pillows. The shower didn’t have hot water and the curtain/shower rod need to be replaced. Pool/jacuzzi area on floor 6 is nice. All our friends stayed in the Banyan so floor 6 was a great place to gather. Elevator wait time was crazy during housekeeping hours, but one elevator was broken. Enjoyed the keyless entry check in and check out and free parking pass.
Overall, would stay again!

For the entire stay we did not have tv. It did not work. They didn't answer the phone for the first 2 days we stayed there and on Monday they sent someone to look at the cable box. They got it to work somehow but didn't know how and it stopped working an hour after they left. Messaged them again and they responded 12 hours later and said they sent someone and it was fixed but when we came back from the beach it was still not working. I bought an adapter for my laptop to connect it to the TV but was not reimbursed. The bathroom sink was clogged and full of hair. The ac unit was leaking all over the patio and I almost slipped and fell out there. A few of the outlets do not work as well. The shower did not get very hot also

This is a great condo to stay in! It was nice & clean, supplied everything we needed and the location is great! The beach is a block away along with many shops & restaurants. There is free parking which easily saved us hundreds of $$$. The pool and hot tub were a plus. The only negatives to our stay were the AC leaked water & three of the BBQ grills that we tried didn’t work. Oh & the vending machine ate our $5 bill. Also it is kind of noisy even being on the 29th floor from traffic & police sirens. The sound kind of tunnels up the side of the building. Many more positives to staying here for sure! We would stay here again.

The owners were very quick to fix any issues but there were many things that should have been addressed before our arrival. The unit smelled of urine (once notified the bathroom was cleaned and the smell improved) the coffee pot didn’t work, the phone didn’t work, the ac unit flooded the lanai (we figured out how to place the foil containers to avoid flooding) we were told to not use eco mode. The numbers on the stove were not there so it took some playing around to get a kettle boiled since the coffee pot was broken. The curtains were missing parts so they never hung properly. There were 4 of us as per contract but there were not 4 bath and beach towels. We were told we could use the ones in the closet but would either have to pay for them or wash them. The sliding glass door was very difficult to open, once notified a handy man was sent out and it opened way easier after. The issues were addressed quite quickly which was appreciated. A new coffee pot and phone were delivered the next day. It was just quite disappointing to have to deal with these issues. On a positive note the beds and pillows were quite comfortable and the view was great!

This property had a spectacular view and a great location. The pictures were accurate of the inside as well. When we got there, the code they gave us didn't work and it took a bit to get a hold of someone to help get into the property. Someone did eventually respond. Also, the towels were very musty and there were only 4 of them. Not a deal breaker, but not convenient to have to go buy laundry detergent to wash them. Two of the elevators in the building were broken, so only two were running. Sometimes it would take up to 5 minutes to get an elevator. Overall though, the space and location were great.

The location of this property couldn't be better. It is only a few blocks to Waikiki beach, about a mile to downtown Waikiki with all the high end shops, and really convenient for pickups for other attractions.

The only bad thing I can say is that while the unit was very clean and more then sufficient, it would definitely benefit from some updating.

The location is great. An easy block and a half walk to Waikiki beach and all the shops and restaurants that run along the main strip. You can walk to the zoo and the aquarium too. Having parking included is a life-saver if you have a car (which I highly recommend so you can see the whole island - Don't miss Wainamo beach in the south east, and the North Shore surfing).
The photos in the listing don't do justice to the spectacular view. The wall of floor-to-ceiling windows directly faces the ocean and you are up high enough to look over most other buildings.
This apartment was the perfect size for our family of 3. It is nicely updated with modern furniture and flooring. For me, a softer mattress would have been good, but everyone has different preferences in that regard. We had two small things that needed attention during our stay and the property management team responded immediately. Great customer service.
I don't think we could have found a better place to stay - especially for the price, which was very reasonable.
Mahalo for the great hospitality!

Suite is one of the nicer ones at the Banyan I've stayed in the 11 times I have stayed. The kitchen was well appointed and towels were newer. One block from the beach is just perfect. The view was very nice but very very loud from pool & street noise, car engines revving and sirens being so high up the noise sure travels. We could have closed the doors and windows but then we would have had to run the AC unit which we know would have been expensive for the owner. The bedroom fan keep us cool enough at night without having to leave the doors open or use the AC and we tolerated the noise in the day . While the unit was clean and kitchen well appointed it was in need of upgrades from bedding that was old, too large or not large enough, for the beds to other cosmetic things that looked original to the building. Upgrades to proper fitting bedding would have made the unit so much nicer.

We enjoyed our stay! Check in was super easy and the parking was definitely great to have. The building is nice, the store in the lobby has a lot last minute things, the coffee shop was also great! The view from our room was was nice! The pool area is nice, the hot tubs are very crowded most of the time which detoured us. The place is quiet and was clean. We pretty much had everything we needed. The beds were super comfortable as well. Having laundry on each floor was nice, we used it a lot! The areas we would have liked improvement were these: 1. The shower water did not get very hot. Warm but not hot. 2. There were only 4 bath towels and they had a smell to them that I couldn’t wash out. We ended up buying 4 more to use while there and left them for the next people. Not a huge deal. 3. First time we’ve had a toilet with a Bidet. The concept is nice but there is an odor that comes from the toilet that is not very pleasant. Not the owners fault, just that style toilet I suspect. 4. It rained a lot! Having something to mop up the lanai once wet would be nice. Other then those minor things the place was great and I would recommend staying there for sure!

Stayed here for 4 weeks and my impression was not good,furniture absolutely useless [bring your own pillows] stools not good for children or seniors,kitchen some pots and dishes ok but nothing for baking and allot more utensils are needed.Bathroom smelt all the time and only one set of towels for two people as with only one set of sheets for the beds. Air conditioner under sized so the lani was covered with water all the time which was very slippery. The drapes drag on the floor and the patio door is very hard to open or close. I could not recommend this place to anyone but there is one good point which is that it has a very good bedroom ceiling fan.

We stayed in this unit April of 2015. It is exactly as shown in the pictures. Beach is one large city block away. It is also just a block from all the excitement and shopping that Waikiki offers. The condo cones equipped with everything you need. The only thing it was missing was beach towels. You can bring your own or buy some at a local ABC store for cheap. We were also only supplied with 2 rolls if toilet paper for 10 days. You will need to stop and buy some. The condo was very clean and bright. The curtains need replacing but other than that it was excellent for the price. Would definitely stay again.
