My family of three had a wonderful stay at this condo. The unit was exactly as described, and all the amenities worked well. The kitchen was well stocked. And the location was very convenient to the beach and the main Waikiki resort area without being right in the busy area. The service from the property managers at Captain Cook Resorts was prompt, friendly, and had everything set-up for an easy check-in and check-out experience. After staying in numerous AirBnbs, having professionals who truly know how to manage a condo and anticipate guest needs was a wonderful experience. We would happily stay in this condo again!

I travel to Oahu to visit my child while he is attending U of H Manoa. I love staying at Waikiki Banyon because the location is central to everything you could want or need but just a bit back from the beach and the noise of the main business area.
I loved this unit because it was clean and updated. The bed was super comfy and a bonus was the door had a safety lock, which traveling alone, I appreciate. Parking is easy and the check in process was smooth and communication was great. I will be staying here again!

Location is surrounded by three major hotel chains and your stay is less than half the cost of one of their rooms. The unit has a beautiful view of the mountains, from the balcony especially at night. Only a block and a half from the beach. So many food and stores to entertain when you’re not playing in the sand. We will definitely be back. A perfect fayvacation!

We loved that the property is located close to the beach, musubi cafe, food trucks and more. While the building itself was dated, the amenities inside the unit are more current. Byron was so welcoming and helpful. We had some issues with the cable and he helped us right away and was able to resolve the issue in no time

We were pleasantly surprised about how central the location was, and how easy it was to walk to food and entertainment. Waking up to the view of the mountains every day and being able to watch the sunrise peek over was a huge plus.
Only pieces of feedback were 1) the sheets were a little unclean when we got there 2) we were unable to contact the property manager during check out and made it a bit confusing.

Our trip to Hawaii was to drop our daughter off at the university of Hawaii Manoa . The host was very accommodating with our late arrival . The condo was beautiful with a view to mountain and we could literally see the dorms from our window . We didn’t plan that at all. The host left very clear instructions and we totally felt welcomed . The bed was very comfortable and the condo was very clean. We can’t wait to go back to visit our girl and enjoy the beauty that Hawaii has to offer.

My parents and I stayed at this condo for a week. Condo was clean and had sufficient items needed for stay; dishes, start up items for week, beach chairs , boogies boards, towels. Location is the best, love the Wakiki Banyan. TV was not working, person covering on arrival immediately jumped in to help and then came over to repair. He answered phone calls on first ring, every time I called when we were initially trying to fix the TV. The second nite , cigarette smoke seeped into condo from somewhere? I am sensitive to the smoke, called management, person covering at that time was not as prompt, when he did call he offered another condo. I decided to see if it happed again to relocate. Happened once again near end of stay. Parking is free, which is plus. Mountain View is beautiful.

We enjoyed our stay from Dec 18-26. The view is breathtaking day and night, and the unit is spacious and clean. I love the large kitchen island for cooking and dining. There are enough utensils and kitchenware to cook for the family.
The bathroom is a good size with a bidet toilet, and the shower tub has instant warm/hot water. There are 2 boogie boards, beach towels and a mat for use. There is plenty of parking, and I love that the rental provides a complimentary parking pass. Location is within walking distance to the Waikiki beach and strip, St Augustine Parish, shops and restaurants galore, etc.
We had a few issues with the unit however. We couldn't find the iron or ironing board, but this didn't dampen our stay. My husband had to fix the leaky kitchen pipe which was flooding the sink floor. Apparently, someone had the screw on the wrong way, but luckily my husband was able to fix easily. The fire station is a few blocks away, and the siren goes off every now and then. The rental unit is next to the elevators and we can hear the elevators all through the night. We got used to the noise after a few nights stay though.
I would stay here again for the view, space, location and free parking.

Our stay at Waikiki Banyan was nice. The condo had a beautiful view and a very comfortable king bed. It was minimally stocked, even for cleaning supplies. The building itself was perfectly located, near the park, beach, bus lines and rental bikes. The elevators were very slow and often out of service. One night we waited 30 minutes. Over all a good place.

I was disappointed as to the overall cleanliness of the place and how old and worn out everything seemed to be. The location was wonderful, although there was quite difficult to negotiate the elevator from the 20th floor! No luggage trolleys to be found and a very busy building ended!
On the plus side, there was no better view point in where to watch the fireworks of New Year’s Eve!

the Unit was very clean and in a great location. The only issue was we had no wifi and tv for our entire stay. Even though our property manager was always in communication with us about it, the issue was never fixed. Also, he had informed us that the faucet in the bath tub was broken so the water was constantly running and that was also not fixed while we were there. I have rented other properties from this company before and had no issues. Unfortunately, this time we didn't get a 5 star unit.

When we arrived we were told that there were workers still in the bathroom so we should delay going to the unit but they should be finished by 5:30 PMWe finally went there at 7:30 PM and they were still there. The place was a mess. Around 10:30 PM they just left without completing the work. The problem was that the bathroom was still a mess. The shower curtain was not up so there would be no way for us to take a shower in the morning. Byron got us another room to use in the morning so that we could take showers etc. Then they finally came back later in the afternoon the next day to put up the shower curtain and come to find out that the fixture was installed incorrectly and there was no water. So they spent the rest of the day there. I was finally able to take a shower around 6:30 PM (which was the time for our dinner reservation so we were late for that). I basically kicked them out after they got the water working and told them that I did not want them there anymore for they already wasted 2 of our days. I told them that they could finish the trim etc after we left. My wife and I then spent a couple of hours cleaning all the floors and dusting all the furniture to make it habitable.Byron did get us a discount but losing 2 days of our vacation was very disappointing and what price can you put on that? We should have been told of this situation before we arrived so that we could have arranged other accommodations. We are also very disappointed with the recreation deck. There is no shade or umbrellas or anywhere to sit. The court is unusable. You cannot blame this on Covid for we have stayed in other hotels during this covid situation. The place is a mess - nothing like the pictures on your website. We travel frequently and all over the world and this was the worst experience we have ever had.

We had a couple of nights with tepid water to shower, the burner had gone, but the maintenance staff worked endlessly on it to fix the situation. The problem was fixed and hot showers once again.

It was very inconvenient to not be able to print a boarding pass at the location you are staying. In this case I was not able to view if I was given a pre-TSA ticket which would have saved time not leaving for the airport as early. Some type of accomodation would be nice to allow guests. Also no information was given as to where to deposit trash upon leaving. Yet these are small inconveniences, the unit was very nice.

What a delightful stay in this clean and bright unit! Our 2 weeks in Waikiki was perfect for the 3 of us. Love the Banyan's free parking, easy access to beach, H-1/Ali Wai, university and family feel. While common areas are somewhat dated, this unit is newly renovated with tasteful decor, tile floors, granite countertops and comfy bed. Location on 20th floor was quiet and east-facing was cool in the afternoons. Good a/c and ceiling fan. Plenty of clean towels for bathroom and beach. No dishwasher was no problem for us - kitchen well equipped, but will need a shopping trip for supplies for a longer stay. Property manager was in good communication with us, offering assistance, but we had no problems at all!
