The location was so good, walking distance to everything you need. The chairs and umbrella came in handy when going down to the beach. I loved not having to pay for resort fees. Saved a good chunk of money. The property is a little dated, but it is perfectly Hawaiian. I would stay here again and most likely will.

Very convenient location. Easy to get to the beach and shopping, even walkable to visit the university of Hawaii campus. The room was well maintained, clean, and even had a couple of puzzles that were used. The option for free parking was also appreciated.

This condo was a fantastic deal. Very clean and comfortable! We love having a kitchen and separate bedroom when traveling, especially when we have our kids with us. The pool and boogie boards were perfect to keep the kids entertained. Free parking was great and had 24 hour security.
Only cons are the area isn’t the best after dark according to our relatives who are locals. But still we are from the Seattle area so I’d say it’s not that bad at all.

This condo is very clean and had everything we could need. We were on Oahu for a funeral and didn’t want to stay with family this time around so found this little gem of a condo last minute. The check in process was very simple. Free parking was awesome and not even something I had thought about when booking because we are not used to staying in the city while visiting. You are within walking distance of Waikiki beaches and can get to rainbow drive and Lenard’s in 5-10 minutes by car (these are the places we miss most being on the mainland). The pool was beautifull, there were boogy boards, beach chairs, and a sunshade tent to take to the beach, the balcony was nice. I absolutely love having a separate bedroom/living room when traveling with kids. We can wake up early, sip our coffee, chat out on the balcony before the “when are we going to the beach, pool, etc” starts up. This place did not have the touristy vibe going on, which we much appreciate, especially my husband who grew up here.The few cons were not deal breakers but I do like to be honest. The pillows were on the thinner side, I had to double them up. The towel bar in the bathroom was broken and had not been repaired before our stay. The area isn’t the best at night, like as a women I wouldn’t walk around alone after 10pm, but it isn’t the worst either. A group or couple walking back from dinner would be fine. Only having 4 beach towels is hard with the pool and beach. Sandy/salty damp towels to dry off with at the pool was kinda gross but my kids didn’t care. For the price this is an excellent place to stay. We will keep it in mind if we ever want to stay in the Honolulu/Waikiki area and would recommend it to family and friends.Mahalo!

We had a great stay in this 1 bedroom unit, comfortable for the 4 of us. Clean overall, kitchen had plenty of glassware and dishes for all our home cooked meals. Location is walkable to beach, restaurants, stores, bus stop and even Safeway. Would recommend to family and friends. Staff at Captain Cook Resorts are professional and just a phone call away if you need anything.

The Waikiki Sunset is a great for enjoying the Waikiki beaches, the zoo, and the many shops and restaurants in that area. The condo is clean, beds are comfortable, and the Captain Cook resort staff are helpful and responsive. The only negative that we encountered was the the fact that the elevators were slow because one or two were out of service .

Some of the outlets didn’t work. Specifically the bathroom outlet didn’t work. The desk outlet was so loose it didn’t charge anything. It’s in a hotel so you expect it to kinda operate like one but it doesn’t. You take care of the resort. Also was charged a Vrbo fee using Expedia.

Its location is fine. It feels trapped in a concrete jungle. Great to have beach chairs etc in the room. It was clean. It smelled of foreign cooking which being world travellers didn’t bother us too bad. Check in was perfect. Great communication with the host as in amazing. The world’s worst elevators. 20 mins just to get from the 9th to lobby. This is due to cleaners needing them as well. Hideaway bed was rock hard and a pancake. It was just very avg in all ways except guest host communication which was super stardom.

My sister and I rented the unit for a week for a mini vacation and to visit our Grandpa for his 90th birthday. The rental unit was everything we were hoping for!
Check in was simple and our property manager Byron was friendly and quick to respond. The door keypad came in handy, you didn’t need to worry about losing any keys and could just use a passcode. There were plenty of parking spaces and the garage was easy to navigate in a larger car like a Dodge Charger.
Our unit was super clean and organized and provided all the appliances and dishware you could need, there were even seasonings, paper towels and dish soap, extra towels and linens, and beach equipment.
The hotel is in a quiet location close enough to the beach and just a short stroll to all of the Waikiki activities. As 2 females, we felt safe walking back to our unit even at night as there were tourists everywhere at all times of the day.
From the balcony you can see a little bit of the ocean and a clear view of Diamond Head with amazing sunset lighting later in the day. Best of all was the strong A/C unit, it was a very comfortable stay.
We really lucked out getting this unit for our vacation/homecoming visit as it became our home away from home, we were really sad to say goodbye and will definitely consider renting again for future visits.
Mahalo!

The property was clean and a close walk to the beach, restaurant and shopping. There were 2 beach chairs, boogy boards and a umbrella to take to the beach. That was nice! Check in was easy and the property manager was responsive. We had an issue with the toilet and it was fixed by the next afternoon. We enjoyed sitting on the lanai having our breakfast in the morning. There is a lot of city noise but with the doors closed we didn’t hear it.
The free parking was great! It can be difficult to park as it is a tight fit but I think what to expect when parking in any bigger city parking garage. We went to the pool on afternoon and it was good. It would have been nice to have a hot tub as well. We would stay here again.
We would stay here again.

This was the perfect place to stay with my family. Quick walk to the beach, plenty of restaurants nearby as well. Only about a 15/20 minute drive to Diamond Head. The place was clean and had a nice balcony to enjoy our breakfast.

Loved the location! Walking distance to Waikiki beach, shops, restaurants and the zoo. Room was clean and decent size for family of 4. Property manager was great. Very easy check in and no issues the whole week we were there.

We needed a hotel-like stay. I was torn between the amenities of a hotel vs. the benefits of a condo.
- Hotel: you'll have more plush/plentiful linens, from towels to bedding. At the condo, we were conservative with our usage and made the "5 towels for 4 people for 4 nights" work. Note: The 2 beds have a thin coverlette on them, but extra blankets were supplied upon request. Sheets for pullout bed were supplied but we needed a blanket, and received it the next day. (Responsive mgt.)
- At brand hotels, I never have to worry about the mattress. This condo had new, firm (good in my opinion),quality mattresses. I'm always nervous about the pullout mattress, but THIS IS THE NEW, SOLID type. No sagging/poking springs!
- The view. This was just a crash pad for us so we didn't mind just having a peek at the ocean and Diamond Head. Pro: Lots of natural light.
- The kitchen! For around the price of a hotel, you get a lovely kitchen. We didn't choose to cook in it, but it had everything we needed for breakfasts/coffee/tea and reheating.
- Shower. A solid/decent shower with good water pressure. A few starter amenities are provided.
- Free parking space. That's a ~$25 value each day.
- We were too busy to tend laundry at the "floor W/D."
- One side of curtain rod broke off ceiling, but was fixed next day.
- No noise from elevator.
- Central AC but vents are up high and blow on your head in BR.
For this class/tier of stay, this unit gets 5 stars. Hope that helps you decide!

Great for small family. A bit noisy with construction going on and street noise, but nothing that would keep you up at night. And surprisingly very little noise from elevator which it is adjacent. Issue with water being off one day and hot water being off due to the repair, but shouldn’t be an ongoing issue. Great location, walking distance to Waikiki beach and strip in front of beach with shops and restaurants. Loved borrowing use of the 2 beach chairs and beach umbrella. Views of diamond head and small bit of the ocean. Loved being able to cook a few meals.

We had so much fun staying at this place. Everything that we needed was there, boogie boards, beach chairs and a beach umbrella were nice additions to enhance our vacation. Definitely recommended and would be very happy to return to this place.
