Check in process was quite easy, as all instructions are sent through an email. The building staff are friendly and willing to assist with any issues. I had an issue with my door code and they were willing to come up to look at the issue with me when I requested it. The room had many amenities such as a kettle, induction stove, coffee machine, etc. and a respectable amount of counter space for them. The sheets and pillows still had some stains. The view from the balcony is fantastic. TV, wifi, and outlets worked as intended. Geographically, it is only a 5 minute walk away from most malls in Waikiki and very close to the bus stop that can take you to downtown Oahu.

Great location to enjoy the attractiond of Waikiki! Four friends shared this locale - three beds was a lifesaver! Easy check-in, nice amenities, and easy walking distance to beaches, shopping and dining was sublime before we jumped on our cruise .

Pleasing experience overall and crazy, beautiful views from the balcony. We loved our experience here. Just a few notes:
- Cleaners were late so we had to check in later, but the hosts were amazing in accommodating a later check-out. As a side, dirty cleaning equipment was left on the balcony.
- Handsoap was not provided for bathroom sink.
- Some unpleasant smell in the bathroom.
- Rusty shower curtain rod.
- Would be nice to provide scissors in the cabinet along with other kitchen necessities.
- Providing extra, larger towels for pool use would be great.

Property was good - pool was supposed to open on the Monday but didn't open until Friday - disappointing. Contacted re a couple of problems and although they came to see them they said they would be fixed after I left....Bathtub paint was wearing off and was very slippery - should have had a non slip mat. Apart from these the stay was goodand location is great.

The apartment was in a perfect location with enough amenities in kitchen and bathrooms with a great view in the balcony and the big windows. The apartment was very cleaned and comfy. Just parking is not good. But we still enjoyed the stay.

We stayed for just over a week. It is in a convenient location, only 2 blocks from the beach and close to all the amenities (Target, International Market, restaurant's and bus stop). The unit itself is on the 43rd floor and has the best view of Diamond Head and was clean when we arrived. Check in process was smooth. The only negative was that the pool and jacuzzi were closed for maintenance for most of our stay.

Great property! Comfy bed, no noise from other guests.
The tub was slow to drain, and the towel bar needed to be tightened , but other wise a great place and price. Would stay there again!

Josh was a great host and easy to communicate with. He was so accommodating, and made our first trip travelling with two young babies stress-free. The unit is clean, and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The awesome viewpoint and patio is an added bonus after a long day exploring Oahu. The location is great, and walking distance from several great eats, the beach, and entertainment. My entire group was very happy with our stay and are looking forward to staying here again in the future!

Great spot on a nice easily accessed property. We had an issue with our Wi-Fi during our stay, and the owner was responsive and worked with us to help. We enjoyed our daily walk to the Royal Hawaiian (pink) Hotel for a swim and a mai-tai. Will certainly stay there again!

I highly recommend this stay — the views from the spacious personal 40th floor balcony were amazing! I’ve been to Waikiki a few times through hotels and airbnbs but this was an incredible stay at a great value with a very customer-focused team who were always willing to help with whatever I needed. I’ll be using Ali’i rentals for all future stays in Hawaii.

The management company was awesome and was fast to respond to any concerns we had. The building offered a lot of convenient amenities. It had a great pool, convenience store, laundry facilities, restaurant and car rental. It was in a central location where you could walk to almost anything. The unit had a great patio but the unit itself needs a lot of updating. The kitchen and bathroom were very small and dated with no space to move around. The beds did not have conventional mattresses with no support hard to get in and out of.

Room itself is very simple but functional. Location is fantastic. Very convenient. View is unbeatable.

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.

We stayed here for a week to visit family on island and attend a big event. I have a family of 6 and my children had a blast in the condo, which had great amenities and was very clean. Outstanding communication with the owner and highly recommend this VRBO! It exceeded our expectations!

An amazing experience from the start of just booking. Josh was a great host who didn't skip a beat when it came to making our stay memorable. We used who he recommended from airport to the vrbo and Nelson was great! We ended up calling him to bring us to our next stop. This vrbo is nestled perfectly in the city with amazing food options along with nice nightlife and shopping centers galore.Josh stayed in constant contact with every question I had he had a quick response. The apartment is clean and very comfortable. I would absolutely book again.

Great downtown Waikiki location with a view of the canal and ocean. It's an easy walk to everything and parking is cheaper than the major hotels. This is the second time we have stayed at one of the properties managed by Ali'i - they are very attentive and easy to work with.

We had the pleasure of staying at this property last week.
The photos are accurate, the condo was sparkling clean and the location was perfect. Hosts thought of everything in this condo from beach chairs/towels to extra spices in the cupboard. The location is safe and the condo was very quiet. I have stayed at many locations in Waikiki and I loved this one, it is a short walk to everything you need.
Joshua is a very responsive host, he was so helpful with all information and the check out process. We also had the pleasure of meeting Hana who was the cleaning person, she was so lovely and accommodating. Highly recommend this property and we cant wait to go back. Mahalo for a great week!

Property is an older style as most are. Very close to beach and amenities. No resort fees is a bonus with a top deck pool, spa, sauna and games room. TV didn't work and took me 3 days to work it out after retuning it. Some information on location, operating the TV and building amenities would be a lot better than the 12 page rental agreement. Could do with some new crockery and glasses. Plates chipped and coffee cups aged and cracked. Priced reasonable for Hawaii. Would I stay again? Probably.

Perfect room...location, view indescribable......sunrises perfect, ocean view excellent, surrounding views breathtaking!! 43rd floor, expected all of that.
Got in late, 26 hours from North Carolina.....had the code to the room, even last code, nothing worked..no help from lady who gave us our fobs for the doors. Security finally sent someone up, he knew to put a check mark at the end of the code...got in. Should have been in our email? Air conditioning was non existent, uncomfortable the entire 14 days, never did cool the rooms day or night! I tried calling the number on our email..left messages..finally got a call back from a lady who could neither speak or understand English? Unacceptable. All she could repeat was send e-mail over and over. No help.
Bed marginal, pillows flat, bought our own to sleep. Still, loved the place. Once inside, everything worked. Would ask for it next time if AC works? Perfect location to town, restaurants, beach, shopping and tour bus pickup and drop off. Had a rental car the whole two weeks and had to pay for parking, $1,500 expense. Could have rented a car in from the building just for days needs...turned in at night, saved $800. Didn’t know. Overall, great time, would still recommend it to family and friends.

It was me and my girlfriend and we were just hoping to find something chill that we could enjoy and be close to beach. That’s what we experienced. Bathroom was small, but wasn’t an issue. Enjoyed balcony. TV wasn’t even worth bothering with not the bowls plates or rusty coffee pot. Still place was chill and we loved it. Will definitely be back

Located close to everything you need. Being a rental unit, do not expect any help from the hotel staff. They will treat you like the plague.
As for communicating with the owners, they close at 5, and are not in a rush to return calls or messages.
All in all, you get what you pay for. This place serves its purpose for a place to crash between adventures.

Words cannot express how satisfying it was to stay at this rental. From the moment you step inside the apartment, you can tell it's different from your average rental. The apartment is decorated quite nicely and gives you a sense of relaxation immediately, which was much needed after a full day of travel. It's impeccably clean and Joshua has gone above an beyond with bottled water, snacks and super soft, high quality linens. He is also very responsive to messages.
We stayed for 6 nights and were very comfortable the entire time. Our favorite thing was to open the windows and embrace the sea breeze flowing through.
We highly recommend this rental and would stay here again without hesitation!

It is the best place to stay in Honolulu. It is close to Waikiki beach in 10 minutes walk. Also there are tons of shops and restaurants near by. We enjoyed staying in this.
The room is quite clean and has spectacular views. Sunset is blocked by the buildings though. The amenities are full filled.
I would return to this room in the future.

I really enjoyed my over month long stay. The room was quite cozy and it was difficult for me to depart. I have a few recommendations to make the experience better. 1. The Security personnel working during the day was not very familiar with their duties and responsibilities regarding the unit. I constantly called Rental management of how to complete the process. 2. Update the instruction guide and instructions. The document is very outdated. 3. The bed, bathroom and kitchen was very tidy upon check in but the counter tops and entertainment area required deep cleaning. 4. Several times I was abruptly disturbed by unruly guests due to mistaken identity. Not the fault of the company just for your situation awareness. 5. Ensure your guests are fully aware of all rules and regulations...no one should be surprised of privileges or restrictions...ie gym usage. All in all I had a wonderful time and I highly recommend to anyone for sort or long term stay.

Stayed while dropping off kid at UHM.
Older property but well maintained and location is ideal, away from the noise and bustle of the beach but only a 5-10 minute walk away.
Right next to Biki station and short pedal up to UHM, or $10 Uber.
Would stay again.
