ワイキキ中心で便利お部屋も綺麗で清潔。簡易キッチンもあり便利でした。ラナイが広く高層階からの景色が素晴らしかったです。ただ、シャワーの温度が日によって低い時があり、MAXに上げても寒かったです。

Overall stay was fine - the location makes it easy to enjoy a variety of activities on the island.
The cons: We had requested an early check-in, but was understandably denied as it was a day-of request and they were cleaning the unit. However, we never received our door code after a long travel day, as they forgot to send it to us. After multiple calls/texts from the front desk and I, we were sent a code an hour after the original time. Once we got into the unit, there were dried eggs on the pans from the past guest and smudges along the bathroom mirror.
It’s important to note that most tropical places have bugs, but it was concerning to find multiple baby cockroaches in the bathroom/kitchen.

Pros: Superb location. From the balcony you can see the city, the ocean, the canal, and the mountains. It was beautiful. Check-in and check-out instructions were very clear. The people at the front desks were very helpful and kind. I felt very safe and I had everything I needed for a great vacation.
Cons: The only real complaint I have is that some of the upholstery and linens were stained (the couch had a few light stains on it, the sheets had black marks on them that looked like burn marks or damage from an old dryer, and the shower curtain had a giant bleach stain on it). These complaints however, did not disrupt my fun in the sun by any means. The view from the balcony annd the location overshadowed any negatives.

We only had a few days on Oahu. This location was perfect for access to the highlights. The room was clean, the supplies in kitchen were adequate and the amenities of the building were all there. My only dislike was sleeping on the pullout sofa was not comfortable for an adult. Otherwise it was great. Initially thought it would be too high up but elevators were quick and view was above most buildings.

Nice view from balcony especially at night. Bonus I got to see Friday fireworks from it. There are just a few little things that would make this unit truly perfect - bathroom could use a refresh like new shower curtain. Mattress obviously has some sort of plastic casing under the sheet which makes it less comfortable. But mostly a solid unit in a safe building. Ate a couple times in the cafe on first floor. Would recommend overall.

stayed 2 weeks, Property as described, nice touch having the kitchen whizz to knock up cocktails, room suited the needs, plenty of space, great views from the lanai, overlooking downtown, Friday night fireworks and sun set, have stayed at Island Colony previously due to location, and pool / spa. Got caught out a little by not reading fine print on bookabatch commission, this should be included in the price :( overall though would recommend this apt.

Wonderful experience in the condo. Was exactly as described. Loved Waikiki, rented a car from the airport and parked in the attached garage. We could walk to pretty much everything, but wanted to tour the whole island, so rented the car.
Did most of our cooking in the unit and used the BBQ’s several times.
Washer and Dryers were handy, and the hot tub was a nice way to wind down.
Especially liked the Magic Bullet blender for homemade Pina Coladas while relaxing on the balcony. View of the ocean, mountains and skyline was gorgeous.
Thank You!

My wife, daughter, and I stayed here for a few days. My 20 year old daughter said the fouton couch was comfortable enough to sleep on. The bed was comfortable. The room was cozy. Breakfast is available for a decent price downstairs. The view from the lanai was amazing. We paid the $40/night parking but I believe there may be options near to pay less. I would recommend taking a car service to/from the airport and nearby attractions or walking around instead of a rental for the entire stay because parking everywhere is ridiculous. If you are wanting to visit more around the island you can always rent a car for a day.

This VRBO was a great option for my wife and I. It has all the things we were wanting. Great view (mountain, city, & beach), nice bathroom, and walking distance to many things. We had a couple minor issues but the host was very responsive and willing to help. Would highly recommend!

Great place and really good location. Close to food, coffee and shopping. We used the parking here for the majority of our stay which worked great for us (USD$40 for 24hours, come and go as you like). It was also super close to pick up locations for tours when we didn’t have a car.
The room is exactly what we required. The kitchen was clean and had all the comforts of home including a coffee machine. The furnishings were comfortable and modern. This room has a deck on the 35th floor providing astonishing views of the city.
The hotel building has a beautiful pool and convenient laundromat and store.
We would definitely stay here again and hope to do so one day.

The property itself is a little dated but the unit is tastefully decorated, well equipped and clean. The a/c is a little noisy but other than that no complaints.

Pluses: Location was within walking distance to everything in Waikiki. The ocean view and size of the deck were great. Well stocked kitchen (no kettle but use a pan to boil water). Nice to have for some lunches and breakfasts. Spacious unit.
Minuses: There was a bit of traffic noise even on the 35th floor but that's to be expected in the big city.
The couch that folds down to be a bed is very uncomfortable, so I'd say best to only have someone sleeping in the bed.
There were some cosmetic issues that if fixed would have made this a 5 star rating: big holes in the bathroom wall where a towel rack should be hanging, peeling laminate on the kitchen shelving, and no dishwasher. Also, there were paint cans, tiles and the vacuum stored in the closet so there wasn't anywhere to put your suitcases, which was tough for 3 people. The dresser also had a few drawers filled with extra blankets/pillows so you couldn't use the drawers. Some drawers didn't open very well.
After all is said and done, would probably stay again if the cosmetic issues were fixed.

Location is perfect. Walking distance from everything in waikiki but without the noise and the crowd. The bus stop is very close. The Appartment is clean, has everything you need and having a terrace on 35th floor is a big plus. You don't see the sunset because of a tall building right in front of the sun but the view is wonderful anyway. Especially at night.

My fiancé and I had an enjoyable stay here at Island Colony (IC14). Located on the 35th floor, the room was quiet from street noise and offers spectacular views of the city both during the day and night. The balcony was a great place to have morning coffee and just relax. Glimpses of the ocean between the sky scrapers was nice too. The studio is nicely appointed and has all the amenities you would need. Location is central to downtown Waikiki and a short 10 minute walk to the beach. Lots of bus stops within walking distance if you’re without car. Our host was quick to respond to our messages and took care of our needs in a timely manner, which was greatly appreciated. The complex is undergoing some renovations around the pool/gym area but did not effect our stay in anyway. Check in and check out was a breeze and the reception staff is very warm and welcoming. I won’t hesitate to stay here again or at any of the Lei Hawaii Realty properties.

Enjoyed the view from the 35th floor and enjoyed a meal on the large lanai. This room is in a very convenient location. It was a great stay!

The rental unit was just as advertised and had everything you needed. Everything seemed clean and in order and nothing in the unit was out of service. The view from the balcony was really nice in the evenings and because of the glass railing you could enjoy it from inside the unit. I thought this was a good spot with easy access to Waikiki for a budget price.
The complex had a lot going on with the patio/pool/hot tub in regards to construction and really restricted access hours.
It takes 2+ weeks to get your deposit back in your account from the company.

The room was so cozy and clean and we were on the 35th floor which was a great view! There are so many food places and shops that are walking distance so that was nice. You do have to pay for parking as a heads up but that’s kind of all over Waikiki area. We were slightly confused at where to check in for our fobs, but then after that it was smooth.

The place was exactly as described. The view was even better than we expected! The location was also central to the main tourist hub in Waikiki and close to bus stops as well. Very easy to travel and enjoy time without having to go long distances. Would highly recommend it if you're looking for a fantastic view and location.

We loved our stay at Island Colony. The room was clean, fresh, and perfect for our little family of three and our island holiday. Our one frustration was that it was very difficult to get a hold of maintenance once our stay began. Fortunately our need was minor but had it been urgent or would have been frustrating. Overall we loved our stay.
