The whole booking process was smooth and convenient. Everything you need is provided. They have some kitchen gadgets where you can eat in if you'd like. A little smaller of a space but perfect for 2. Convenient location, super close to a lot of places and so easy to walk to the beach. They provide beach chairs which was so nice! The only negative thing I can say about this place, is you can hear outside pretty well (we didn't have our air unit on at night so that may have helped drown out the noise) and the trash trucks come through really early. And we were then awake for the day. But that could have just been something we noticed and was already struggling with a 6 hour time difference. The place was clean and felt safe. Communication with owner was great! Would definitely stay here again!

This building is a great location to all things in Waikiki, including the 3 block walk to the beach. The management was a breeze to communicate with before and during our trip. Those are the upsides to staying here. The price is decent but the room could really use a deep clean, especially the bathroom and it needs a fresh coat of paint. The AC unit is extremely loud when it runs so if you're a light sleeper, this is not the room for you. One of the outlets next to the bed only had one working plug-in. We could never get more than luke-warm water out of the kitchen faucet and the balcony with the AC unit, had standing water on it most days. Wailkiki buildings are old and rundown and this one was no exception. If you don't care about your room and want a great location at a decent price, this works.

wonderful location one block from beach, numerous eating options within walking distance, free parking, and felt safe in building/garage. condo had everything for our family of 4 - beach chairs and wagon were an extra plus.

We really enjoyed this condo and found it to be an efficient and affordable base camp for exploring Waikiki. The bed was super comfortable to sleep on, the AC cooled the room off quickly, the futon was nice to sit on at the end of the day and watch TV, the small kitchen had all the necessities, and the WiFi worked great! We walked to the beach, the International Market, and the ABC store on the corner frequently. We definitely recommend this condo and hope to stay here again!

It is a small studio located walking distance to the beach, restaurants/food trucks and near bus stops for local transportation.
The building is outdated but the studio is clean and decently maintained.
I appreciated all of the beach gear such as the towels, chairs, and umbrella.
I would recommend this location for short 3-4 day stays.

We loved our stay here. It was clean and had many appreciated amenities (including beach umbrellas, chairs and toys for the sand!). We loved that we could easily walk to Waikiki beach and back as well as being right around the corner from a bus stop with buses that took us everywhere we were hoping to go including Pearl Harbor and the airport. Aaron was very helpful and prompt with communication and everything was as advertised. Would highly recommend!

Convenient location. Few minutes' walk to the beach, restaurants and shops. Kitchen doesn’t have any basic condiment like sugar pkts for coffee. The condo is very old-style deco. Does not have the Hawaiian vibe. Definitely needs a makeover and upgrading. Both sliding doors are difficult and a pain to open due to rust and dirt at the bottom. The balcony rails are covered so you can’t enjoy the scenery sitting down. You can see partial ocean view from the balcony standing up. Bathrooms are nice and roomy but needs more towel holders, shelves and hooks. No where to hang 4 wet towels after showering. The master bedroom mattress squeaks a lot. Needs to be replaced. Wifi was not working so I lost half a day’s work since I was on a work holiday. The elevator didn’t work one day. Being on 15th floor it was difficult for my 80-year-old partner to walk down the stairs. Also, I don’t like the early 10am check out. Most places are 11:00 am. I will not be staying here again. Not as nice as the pictures

This stay was in a great location, even closer to the beach than I pictured! Perfect for people renting a car (the parking garage underneath has windows with lots of spots). If you are concerned about parking - early morning and late night (after 8 pm) are best times to get zoo parking. During the day we had luck with the garage right underneath this unit. Peter was very helpful, check in and checkout were a breeze. A great deal compared to some of the pricier hotels surrounding!

Great apartment and location. Some dirty sheets we had to get changed but Aaron was very responsive. Both Elevators went out our last day and had to haul luggage down from 16th floor. Advertised as two double pull out sofas but only has one which made it a little tight for our party of 7. Overall great location and easy check in/out and love the free parking.

Great location, super clean, air conditioned, and free parking, exactly what you want when on vacation to Hawaii. The only negatives, the room safes were locked and inaccessible. We let the property manager know, they acknowledged but did not respond to fix the problem. Also, the living room is quite small with limited seating… fortunately we spent very little time in the room. We would return without any hesitation.

My husband and I really enjoyed our trip. The host was very helpful and readily available when we needed. Accomodations over exceeded out expectations and it was a wonderful trip. Location is perfect for walking distance to the beach, shopping centers, and food. Very much recommend this host and the location of this property. Also not much noise at night from the night life so absolutely perfect for a honeymoon or anniversary kind of trip.

We had a wonderful time at the property. While it doesn't have an ocean view, it is just 3 minutes walk to Waikiki beach and many good restaurants. It has a relaxing atmosphere and it was so nice they supplied all the basics.
The kitchen had coffee, tea, spices, and creamer. The apartment had beach towels, snorkeling gear, boogie boards and beach chairs. There was TV with Netflix access. Perfect for both relaxation and adventure. Thank you Aaron for the great communications.

Really enjoyed my stay in this property. Everything is as described in the listing, and the Waikiki location is excellent. Access to the unit was easy thanks to the host's clear and detailed instructions. Kitchenette is nicely equipped and the bath had every amenity I needed. Being a solo traveler on this trip, I really appreciated the security of this property - nice to feel safe. Thanks, Peter, for a wonderful stay and I hope to return.

This is the perfect place to stay. It fit all 8 of us, and was only two blocks to the beach and stores. The street it sits on isn’t busy, so you don’t hear all the noise. Beds, hide-a-bed and cots were comfortable. Two bathrooms- 1 shower, 1 tub/shower. It was clean. Since it’s two apartments, there are two fridges for extra groceries. He had beach towels, snorkels, sand toys, and boogie boards (I think that’s what they are called). The kids had a bald at the beach with them. We rented a minivan and it fit well into the parking space. I loved having a place to park for free. I would definitely recommend this place.

We had a great stay at Peter’s property in Kuhio Tower. The unit has proximity to the beach, shopping, restaurants and shuttle pick ups to area attractions. The unit has everything you need for the beach-towels, boards and chairs. The basic kitchen area was very adequate for our needs. Peter stayed in contact with us and was quick to answer any questions we had. We recommend this place and would stay again if we returned to Oahu.

Peter was an amazing host throughout our entire stay, was available at anytime if needed. The room has everything you need and more. I enjoyed the location of the property because it was close to everything. Parking available too within reasonable distance if you don’t want to park on the property. Overall it was an outstanding experience and I would definitely recommend to friends and family. I also look forward to choosing there property again. Mahalo!!

Tastefully remodeled studio in older building located a couple of short blocks from the best beaches in Waikiki and the best restaurants, shopping and bars a short stroll away. Lots of cabinets both in kitchen and bathroom wardrobe area. Has a balcony facing condo building courtyards and parking. Building has good security measures. Would definitely stay again.

The unit was clean and in a very good location, the bed was very comfortable.
It is within walking distance to most attractions and resturants. We had a car and parked close bye at Banyan Parking garage.
The bus stop is right accross the road and there are several food trucks close by.
The unit itself was a little dated and would probably need an update soon but overall was clean, central and suited us fine.
Would stay here again

The apartment was very clean and stocked with everything you would need. We especially appreciated the fact that there were beach towels for our use. The only thing I could suggest to improve the stay would be good instructions on using the television. We were unable to get the tv to work. We were just a few blocks from the beach and all of the restaurants and shopping.

Location is only two blocks off the beach and within walking distance to everything in Waikiki. The unit is very clean and had comfortable beds for everyone. Owner goes out of their way to ensure you have a great stay.

The property was exactly as pictured. Communication with Peter was very easy. The room was small but we really only needed a place to sleep as we did not spend much other time there. Bed was comfortable. Our stay included everything we needed for the two of us. The only draw back is the parking. It can be challenging and if you find a spot in the basement lot, there are no in and out privileges. Keep that in mind when paying for your parking pass. The place is within walking distance to most everything you would need though. We would recommend this property.

Staying here allowed us to not need to rent a car (or find parking). We were 3 minutes from Waikiki Beach and we watched the sunrise on the beach a couple times. The room was quiet and clean. The A/C worked well. We loved either cooking or getting breakfast and bringing it to our lanai/balcony and eating breakfast in a the cool morning breeze. Peter was a great host!

Aaron was helpful and always responsive when needed. The condo was abundantly stocked that we never had to worry about running out of necessities. The parking space for our minivan was initially a concern, but once we became accustomed to it, it was no problem. Having a parking space in Waikiki is always a definite plus! The condo is in walking distance to many things and only a block away from the beach! This was my nephews' first experience in Hawaii and they did not want to leave. Thank you for the ease of checking in/out and a wonderful stay at a home away from home!
August 2023
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Very clean. Very good communication and directions for check-in and check-out. It was close to everything. Would definitely stay here again!

Amazing location - we could walk to the beaches and restaurants. The kitchen let us prep meals at home, which was fantastic. It was clean and ready, and the manager Peter was wonderful - very responsive and friendly. There was no problem getting in or with anything we needed.
A few things: the building is old and run down - from the outside I was a little worried. While there is a security desk, in the 9 days there I only saw someone at it once, so if that's important to you, know it's not really used. The building is sort of security, but people did walk in and jump in elevators that were already open (you need a fob to open the elevator in the lobby and to ride up, but not down).
There is no laundry facility available here, contrary to the pictures. The one that was attached to the building closed in April 2023.
The main downside for us was the furniture, which for us was uncomfortable. The mattress is very hard and felt old, and same for the pillows. The chairs for the dining table and patio were not comfortable, and the lighting in the apartment is very minimal, with no light over the table. The patio is tiny, and if you're spending a lot of time in the water like we did and you hang wet things over the chairs, there's no place to sit or stand outside. Hanging wet things on the shower rod just knocks it down since it's pressure mounted.
Overall it was totally fine for our needs but not amazing.

The condo was well stocked. We appreciated having coffee, creamers and sugar so we didn’t have to worry about getting it ourselves. We had plenty of towels, paper products and bath supplies.
The space was small for us. We did have a teenager on the cot and she said it was fine.
The space was clean.
