We stayed on Waikiki beach in the most perfect condo! Everything was as described/pictured and the location could not have been better. Communication with the Captain Cook’s team was easy and just enough. (Not too intrusive but always available!) Check out was easy. (Many places will charge a cleaning fee and also ask you to clean before you leave!) We will definitely book with Captain Cook’s again!

During our stay, we had cockroaches, so we requested insecticide, but it was too late to contact us, so we ended up having to kill them by hand.Also, I contacted the person in charge because the ice that comes out automatically did not come out, but there was no answer.It seems that you should not expect much in the way of hygiene and equipment.

This is an a great unit. The view is simply unparalleled. We had perfect weather for 8 days and we spend hours on the lanai just taking in the vistas from Diamond Head through Waikiki. Just beautiful.
Two bedrooms, two bathrooms, full kitchen. Ideal for families. Can save some money on meals.
All of Waikiki is walking distance. Can't beat the location. Most convenient property on the Kalakaua strip with really outstanding valet service. Traffic in Waikiki is what is is, but this is still an optimal location. You just have to be patient for those last 10 minutes on your trips back from the North Shore or East Side.
Look, the unit could use an update. Cleaners could have spent a bit more time scrubbing the bathroom. The Master bed needs a new frame. Creaks loudly when anyone gets in or out of bed. But the value is extremely high for Waikiki and we would be happy to stay in this unit again.

Beautiful and well configured unit for families.
Wallking distance to all that Waikiki has to offer.
Great views.
Best valets on Oahu.
Would love to stay there again. Just outstanding.

All upholstered cushions stained and flat. No support from cushion. Chairs sank to uncomfortably low. Many hinges on the cabinets are short and need to be replaced as they do not close properly. Two beds were uncomfortable and bedding did not fit.Towel ring missing in master bath. New one under cabinet - ya think they could have installed it. Shades frayed and one was off roll making it difficult to open/close. Kitchen well painted. Great location and views. Booked in May. Pool was under refurbishing, but was supposed to be finished by July. Will not be finished until November.

Our family of five (three adults and two teens) had a fantastic time at this property. There was plenty of room for all of us, and the view was stunning. A trip to the beach was an elevator ride down and a short walk across the street. The unit had beach chairs and bodyboards, which we utilized frequently.
There were a couple of things to be aware of—the seal on the window of the second bedroom was not very good, and given that we were on a high floor with lots of wind, the window produced a lot of noise that woke our kids up on occasion.
Unfortunately, our Property Manager (James) was also not very responsive. There were a couple of times we texted him and did not get a response until we contacted the main info email, which seemed to get things moving. Nothing was urgent, and they eventually took care of everything we needed, but the response was a bit slow. Maybe text was not the best outlet to contact them, but we were not told otherwise.
Other than a few issues, we enjoyed ourselves and would rent this property again.

The location and view can’t be beat. The communication with the property manager was great and he was so friendly and responsive. The unit itself definitely needs some upgrades and there are no extras in the kitchen for cooking like you would find in other rentals. It was really nice having beach chairs to use. There wasn’t a tv in the twin bedroom like advertised and it was hard to lock the master bathroom door. The pool and hot tub were both closed when we were there, too.

As stated in description of condo, it's located across the street from Waikiki Beach and within walking distance from all the shopping & restaurants on Kalakaua Ave! On the day we arrived, there was a three-block food festival on Kalakaua Ave, which was great for us to stroll and try various vendors. Close driving distance to Diamond Head Crater Trailhead, Hanauma Bay, etc. Valet attendees were extraordinarily cordial and helpful; (make sure you tip!) Our point-of-contact, Byron, was very responsive. Simple check-in/check-out process. It was perfect for my family as our first time in Waikiki!

Everything about this property was great with one exception. The pool was under repair and not unable. With 2 children age 11 and 12, it certainly would have been great to have the pool in the nice, secure building. This should have been mentioned in the advertising. With a pool, it would have been a perfect score.

The view from the condo was breathtaking. The balcony was large and a pleasant place to sit to watch the spectacular sunsets. The condo is in the heart of Waikiki, convenient to stores and restaurants. The condo itself was beautiful, modern and clean. The resort staff was friendly and extremely helpful. This was a wonderful stay and I would definitely stay here again if I return to Waikīkī.

Beautiful property. Well maintained. Property manager experienced and responsive. One downside, pool was to be open by 07/04. Was not open. Estimating it will. It be open until September. Overall, that was the only downside.

We stayed here for only two nights-we had booked 6, but because of a global IT outage with crowd strike and Microsoft, we were physically unable to get there by plane. We kept in constant communication with property and VRBO and was told no refunds even though it was an extenuating circumstance. The property had several issues, that we would have overlooked- dishes dirty- broken bathroom mirror- old pillows, a foul Oder in master bath. No proper cooking utensils. Bottom line, everything was sub par and the place was not accommodating to our situation. I’m sure thousands had the same issue- but were refunded for the days they weren’t able to get there. Very unfortunate. Poor communication and unprofessional. This was our very first VRBO!

My family and I loved staying here. It was clean, comfortable, and right next to the beach! We loved having a kitchen to make our own meals in, and having a patio to unwind on after a long day at the beach was perfect!! The unit came with everything we needed to have a fun, relaxing stay. Would definitely stay here again!

Pros: Great location and very clean. Nice sheets and towels, comfortable beds. Generally well appointed - even had some laundry soap and dryer sheets available. Kitchen had anything you’d need. They had beach chairs, umbrella, boogie boards and several good beach towels available.
Frustrations: No pool - we were unaware that it was under construction so it was closed during our stay! However, we were quickly offered monetary compensation for the disappointment, which was greatly appreciated. Free valet parking however, having to tip valet over and over got expensive. That said, they were very quick and friendly - we never had a long wait to get our car.
Cons: The couch was uncomfortable and made a really loud noise every time you’d sit/move. Some of the blankets were old and should really be replaced (esp the couch blanket). Master bath door was broken, it wouldn’t close or lock.
Overall the cons/frustrations are certainly not worth passing up on this condo. The condo management company can easily address some of the cons (like fixing the bathroom door and replacing the blankets). We worked with Byron and he was very responsive and helpful. It’s a great location with a beautiful view!

Hawaii's Honolulu was flooding the first 4 days of our stay. We found tourist activities unbelievably expensive. The only thing that made our vacation was the condo on the 23rd floor. The condo was spectacular. After the monsoon the view from the 23rd floor balcony was breathtaking, with fabulous sunsets to the right and a huge view of Diamond Head on the left. We took a few drives, ate at some exotic restaurants and a couple off the beaten path. They were okay. The condo was the saving star of our trip!

We were a group of 6 (Me, my wife, by 3 sons... ages 20, 18, 15, and my mother-in-law) and this place fit us so perfectly! The view and balcony alone were just fantastic! We were not cramped at all with the two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The full-sized washer/dryer worked great! This place leads right out to the street in front of Waikiki Beach. Everything was clean and in good order. The valet parking was excellent. The pool was under repair while we were there, so that was a little disappointing, but that had nothing to do with this unit. We have stayed in 2 other really good places in Waikiki in the past couple of years. This was easily our favorite. The management of the place was incredibly easy to deal with (although, we didn't need anything after we settled it... it was already in great shape).

Super-responsive Host to all questions/concerns. Very different kind of VRBO - for us at least. We've done something like 40 VRBO trips but this is our first to a super-popular destination like Waikiki in Hawaii. If Hawaii is like New York City, Waikiki is like Manhattan, and the one street between the property and the beach, Kalakaua, is like Times Square. It seems like every parade and festival goes down Kalakaua - adding to the daily traffic jam. Around 10p it gets quiet. Until then, constant action, bodies, shopping (every mid-to-high-end brand you can name), street performers, etc.... with the ocean and a protected lagoon-on-the-beach right there on the other side. If you spend enough time on the balcony and the surf is up, you can watch things like surfing classes going on out there all day. A "better than most everyone else's" view, closeness to the beach, and all that action is what you're paying for. Inside the unit some things are nice - the window to pass food from the kitchen to the balcony is brilliant. the Stove and Fridge are up-to-date. For the price-point, everything else is mostly "fine", but a let-down if you're expecting the super-maintained, perfectly over-stocked-for-every-possible-need type $400/night rental you get on a small town beach, small town center, or short-drive-to-the-skiing-lodge type VRBO. This is at the center of the action for probably all of Hawaii and not even a full block from the beach. If that's what you focus on, you're good.

This recently renovated condo was the perfect place for our Waikiki visit. Amazing ocean and beach views from the lanai (as well as the master bedroom and living room) on the 29th floor of the Waikiki Beach Tower. A terrific location with short walks to shopping and restaurants and the beach is right across the street. The unit has everything you need for a short or longer stay in the area, parking is included as well. We highly recommend staying in the wonderful condo!!!

We absolutely loved our stay from the moment we walked in! Staying at a location that is not as crowded as where the Sheraton and the Royal Hawaiian is at, it made for a much better experience (the 2 hotels is less than 5 min to walk). The beach is across the street and you can walk further down to a less crowded area of Waikiki Beach. Just know that Waikiki beaches are very rocky in the water. It is a man made beach. You can see from the room what sections have clearings to sit at during the day. There is also a blocked off area where there is not much waves for families with little kids. The best part of staying here is that there's only 4 rooms per floor. There are no screaming kids running down the hallway, and with the elevator right next to each room, you do not have to wait much for the elevator. It's basically a personal elevator. We loved the full kitchen and washer/dryer which we used everyday of our stay. We ordered groceries from Instacart to fill up the fridge for the week. We only went out to eat once a day if that. This made for a cost effective trip when it came to food. Everything is in walking distance except we did take the pink trolley to Ala Moana. We did 3 excursions, and though the pick up were not from WBT, it was at the nearby Hyatt and Twin Fin. The view from the room with the sounds of the ocean made this trip everything we wanted it to be, and more. There is an Eggs and Things downstairs but it is packed. There is a Mc Donalds, but before people criticize why Mc D in Hawaii? There's no Mc Teri burger on the mainland!! That was our dinner one night! Be sure to walk to the Musubi shop less than 5 min from WBT and get there early! It's good eats for the beach and to eat in the room if you get hungry but don't want a full meal. We will definitely be back and recommend WBT to anyone and everyone who comes to Waikiki! Yes it seems a bit pricey, BUT you do save on food and the amount of space in the room is worth every penny!

My husband and our infant daughter stayed here and loved it. This is our fourth time coming to Waikiki and our new favorite place to stay. The location is fantastic, just steps from the beach. It is in the heart of Waikiki so there are endless options for shopping, food, etc. It is across the street from a very calm protected beach so little ones can enjoy the water even on rough ocean days. The unit has the most amazing views and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. We wanted an in unit washer dryer given our infant and the need for constant laundry. This was such a nice thing to have. Also consider whenever you are staying at a beach air B and B that you will have beach towels and no towel service so having a washer dryer is really nice to have. The property manager was kind and responsive and the valets were so great! We would stay here again in a heartbeat.
