Don & Megan Unit was very comfortable, clean, & very well organized. Loved the host's promptness in answering any inquiries. Building itself is in need of a renovation to bring it up to the Condo's standard. Would definitely stay again!

Location was everything, we loved being so close to the beach and shopping.

We loved our time here and really appreciated that it is on the East end of Waikiki near the beautiful Kapiolani Park with Diamond Head in the background. The view is nice. It was clean, private and quiet (except for the street noise when the lanai door was open). The laundry area was clean and I never had to wait to use the machines. It's a great place to launch from while visiting Honolulu. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that the AC is regulated by door sensors and the one on the lanai sliding door kept getting activated and turning OFF the AC in the middle of the night even though we were not moving the door.

Small condo but has everything you need. Bed in master was very comfortable. Location is everything and really nice to have parking. 2 blocks to great beach with safe swimming. Nice to not be by all of the crowds but able to get to the heart of Waikiki beach with a short walk. Highly recommend!

Property could use a little sprucing up, drapes were falling down which in the middle of Waikiki is a problem

December 2024

Overall it was a nice stay. Condo was a bit small but sufficient for three of us. A few minor issues like ice machine not working, limited hot water for showers and sofa doesn’t extend on one side into bed. Tv also not easy to operate either. Locations is good. Place was clean and well stocked. ac was good. Would be nice to have laundry but I don’t think those units have it. Parking was great no issues and quick to park and get to room (and included). Microwave blew on us and was promptly replaced. Overall I would recommend it was a good stay other than a few minor things noted above.Small but ok gym as well that has basics.

Beautiful sunrises overlooking Diamond Head and two block walk to Waikiki beach for great restaurants, shopping or simply lounging on Waikiki Beach. The condo was very clean and just perfect! The entire process from beginning to end was smooth, received emails and text messages for check in and felt very informed. Kudos to James and team!

This was one of the best VRBO's I have stayed at. Great location just blocks from the beach. Beach towels, boogie boards, and beach chairs included. The building is older put this unit is prime. It is beautifully decorated and well appointed. We made use of the pool and grills.

Contacting the owner or property management was hard or I should say no respond. Also, not enough towels or toilet paper for 4 peoples.

We have stayed in several VRBO condos over the years. This one overall was the nicest. There were a few small things that could be addressed but overall, very pleasant. The AC seemed to be new and worked very well. The flooring and cabinets are nicely upgraded. It is overall much more pleasant than the Banyon The view was very nice. We would happily stay here again.

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I ask for email to be able to leave a review of my staying with this company, and they send me a different number. But the service was super poor and never fix my problem! Didn’t have TV the entire staying with my family!!! Pictures of the room aren’t the same when you get there, that was a need for more stuff, AC works just for the living room bedrooms are warm at night.

Great hosts, super easy communication. Great instructions left inside the apartment. Parking was super easy and such a bonus to have in Waikiki. The beds were quite soft, the views are stunning. Really comfortable apartment and the building overall was quiet, didn’t really hear any other guests while there. Great location

Location is key - so close to the beach and the main strip. The Diamond Head View was beautiful. Roomy and very clean. The upgrades to the unit are so appreciated. I had other family members staying in other units in the same building that felt outdated… while we had the best appointed unit in the building. We look forward to another visit!

About a 7 minute walk to the beach The balcony overlooks the mountains, canal and diamond head. You can’t see the beach but we didn’t mind We loved the bed. We prefer a more firm bed and it was just that. The beach chairs and umbrella were a huge plus. We used them daily. Well stocked with everything we needed. Plenty of towels for our 9 day stay (we reused a few times) There is a little mart on floor 5 that was great for a quick snack or anything you forgot. The pool area is great, although most of the day it’s in the shade. It wasn’t overly crowded, we laid in the chairs a few times, but never swam. Nice bbq area (we didn’t use but was very nice) There was always plenty of parking. Elevators can be busy during peak hours, there are 30+ floors so lots of people coming and going, but wasn’t a huge issue for us to wait a few. As some people noted, a few things in the condo could be updated like the vanity, sink and faucet, but that doesn’t bother us at all. The building is well made and you can’t hear hall noise or neighbors. This is important to me as I’m a light sleeper. We did hear the people above moving their chairs around the floors quite often, but they might have just been a big group staying there . But could never hear neighbors talking or halls doors slamming. The keyless entry was nice so we didn’t have to bring a key when we walked to the beach. My only suggestion would be to have smart TV’s so we could watch streaming apps in the evenings. Would stay again!

Pretty close to Waikiki beach. Clean and comfortable place with everything we needed. Fire alarm went off in the building a few times other than that a wonderful stay!

Building had great facilities, a small market, pool , gym. Didn't find super close to Waikiki and quite noisy at night with the windows open. Other than that the whole process was easy. Until we finally got a hold of the manager via what's app he was responding our messages via the app. Would recommend and stay again

We had a great stay. The apartment was clean and had everything our small group needed, with a gorgeous view of Diamond Head. Two blocks from Waikiki Beach, close to restaurants and shopping. Pool was quiet the morning we visited it. Also convenient to buses that made it easy to visit areas of the city where we didn’t want to have to find parking. And Kameron was a very responsive host.

Older property but very clean. Bed very comfortable. 2 min from beach and a beautiful park. The 10th floor offer the most spectacular view of diamond head and gorgeous sun sets. My only disappointment is the pool. The sun only it’s it a couple hours a day and is open to a restaurant.

Couldn't have asked for a better condo, location, or host. Courtney was quick to respond, kind, gracious and accommodating. Traveling with a 1 year old can be chaotic, but with places and hosts like this, make things so much smoother.

We loved our stay in Waikiki. This condo was exactly as advertised. It was in a great location, beautifully renovated and wonderfully equipped. Courtney thought of all the little details, from the cooler backpack and ice packs to the well stocked and supplied kitchen. We would definitely stay here again! Mahalo!

Absolutely stunning view of DiamondHead! The unit was ready and prepared for my sister and family coming to Hawaii for a once in a lifetime event. Easy directions from the airport, parking and distance to the beach and zoo. Overall visit was worth every penny. I purchased this for my sister and her son/daughter in law and three children. For them, this was a “turn key” operation and they enjoyed the visit! For me, getting a complete list of check-in procedures was not easy. I LIVE ON ISLAND, I would have expected to get the procedures a couple of days prior to arrival, that way I could plan and execute, keeping my guests moving from the airport, and their long trip, to the VRBO. Additionally, it was unclear on who to talk to upon entering the building; the person at the desk directed us to a security guard who was the actual person to check in with, not in my directions or it was unclear. More information, like parking was explained by the security guard. An aside, with all the bags brought for the week-long stay, we saw a baggage cart and asked to use it. The security guard said sure, but after you give him and ID and fill out a sheet explaining who you are; all of that while you are trying to check in, tired guests and people who just want to get to their room. So we just figured it out with multiple trips. All this in contrast to our other VRBO, who provided us with the “gold standard” of check in procedures.

The unit is very well equipped, clean, very nice bedding, good AC, and nice balcony. The parking was easy if you carefully follow the instructions. Only complaint is the elevators service ranges from good to total CF when busy or one is out of service

We enjoyed our family of four(little kids) staying at Courtney’s place. They literally have everything prepared, from kitchen to beach essentials. No mention the close to beach location and partial Mt view, we saw rainbow often at the balcony.

This condo is absolutely perfect. The location is a 5 minute walk from the beach, 2 minutes from an ABC and 7 minutes from Cheeseburgers in Paradise! The patio is perfect for morning coffee and offers quite a nice view. The condo itself is very well appointed, everything you need is there. We used the pool multiple times and the bbq one evening. The only thing I would point out is the parking is 6’ in height and a bit tight, no oversized vehicles. I had a jeep and was scared the first few times that I would scrape the top. Captain Cook has also been fantastic to book with and communication has been great. If you are looking for a great place to stay in Waikiki, look no further, you found it!

It's the perfect spot for a family looking to explore the island. The condo had everything we needed was super close to the best beach in the US. If you find problems with the place you didn't go to enjoy the big island.

Walkable and continently located condo on the upper floors with incredible ocean and mountain views from high above. Truly a highlight. Building itself is older and little run down, but don’t be fooled walking in because the condo itself modern and updated. FYI, the garage is a tight fit and says 6 foot clearance, but we were able to fit our Jeep

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We try to come to Waikiki once a year, and have stayed at Waikiki Sunset a few times, this was 2nd time using Captain Cook, but first time in 3704. We stay there for the ocean view, price, location, spacious condos, full kitchens, private lanais, free phone calls, both local & to Canada/mainland US, and free parking. 3704 has the best view of all we have stayed in. A few negatives that may/may not bother other people. The king size mattress needs replacing, seemed very old, both sides are very compressed, you really sink down a lot, more than any hotel/condo mattress we have ever slept on. We could even see the indents when first walking into the bdrm, but down the middle was normal, the padded mattress cover didn't help. Hated the high (tall) chairs on the lanai, regular, hotel type balcony chairs that you sit down into, your feet touch the floor, and you can stretch your legs out and relax in would be a 100% better. We used the kitchen a lot, but only "microwave safe" bowls were cereal/soup size, a 2, 3, or even 4 quart size would have been nice for cooking. There was no dish drying rack either. We would have prefered regular cable tv with local channels like KGMB, KITV, KHNL etc instead of just streaming tv. We will stay at Waikiki Sunset again, and "might" consider 3704 again.
