We had a good time here. The sofa bed is very comfortable. Everything works except the beach chair and umbrella are broken. We didn’t need them that much so it didn’t bother us that much. Overall, a very enjoyable stay.

We really enjoyed our stay at this place. It was very modern and clean place to stay with nice to haves, like the Britta water container and ice cube trays. We didn’t cook in the kitchen as we were on vacation and chose to go out instead but there was plenty of supplies available to cook in the comfort of your own condo.The location was great, walking distance to the beach, shopping and plenty of restaurants.i would most definitely stay in this place again.The only downside is that 1 bedroom for 4 people (2 adults, 19 year old and 17 year old) can be a little tough at times but we managed.We really enjoyed our stay here!!

Thank you to Chris and Sara for sharing their gem with us. The location is perfect…we feel it’s on the best end of Waikīkī Beach. The hotel itself is a bit dated, but this suite has been reno’d and is lovely….we would not hesitate to stay here again. Chris and Sara were responsive to our queries and willing to help, when we needed it. We had access to the pool, which we didn’t use, and the weight room, which we used daily…it had everything we needed, for a small hotel gym. We loved our morning views from the lanai and the evening walks along the strip….lots to see! We had a car and loved that this spot included free parking, thank you! We left each day to explore the island, but this was a great home base. Mahola, The O’Sullivan Family. ,

Beautiful apartment close to the beach and tons of restaurants and stores. There was also beach chairs, umbrella, sand toys, cooler, cart, etc. Also a well equipped kitchen if you plan to prep meals at home.

Absolute dump of a property, not worth the stay. This building needed a renovation 20 years ago.

Everything has been fantastic! The listing is even nicer in person than in photos— which is rare. It’s incredibly well appointed. Courtney left us a sweet note with a basket of coffee and snacks. There’s shampoo, conditioner, and soap, as well as dish soap, cleaning supplies and even laundry detergent. Extra towels and beach towels and chairs— literally everything you need! The bedding is lovely as are all the decorations. Everything worked well and the host has been incredibly helpful! Highly recommend this listing!

Great location and convenient on-site free parking. Everything worked well and we did not have any issues. It would have been nice if the kitchen had some basic things like spices or oil for cooking. We ended up buying a lot and then just left it. Again, great location.

This is our 2nd time at this property! Always a great stay. Entire house was clean and plenty of towels and toiletries for the week. Will definitely be back again next year for our annual Hawaii trip.

My mom and I came over to recuperate and heal up from the last 2 yrs of loss and grief our stay at the Astin Waikiki Sunset was just what the dr ordered. The condo was beautiful and clean with some of the best sunset views i have ever seen. The hosts were quick to respond whenever i reached out and when i asked if we could extend our stay they went to any length to accomodate us. Even comping a couple of nights. Highly recommend this place.

This condo was a wonderful place to Saturday. It had every amenity you could need. The details were very well thought out. The condo was extremely clean. It was an easy 3 to 5 minute walk to just about everything you could need, including the beach. Would happily stay here again!

We came with two grown up kids. Four of us had the great time for a week here. The kitchen facility with the view left us unforgettable memories. The property team was very responsive throughout our stay.
I would definitely come back and also recommend to others.

Just finished 3 weeks at Chris's condo. What a great spot - we stay at the Sunset or Banyan each year, and this time, it was at the Sunset. The condo was clean, functional and well equipped, and made our stay a breeze. There were 3 of us and the place worked quite well (even up to 4). The kitchen was fantastic - all you needed to cook - and the bedroom and bathrooms were as expected. The only slight negative is the sofa couch is not comfortable as a couch (didn't try it as a bed).Thanks Chris!

This was the perfect place for my family of four to stay in Waikiki. The condo was beautiful, comfortable, and had everything we needed and more. We loved being able to walk to the beach, shops, and activities nearby. My kids loved using the beach supplies. Courtney and her team were so helpful during our stay with updates and the welcome note and basket were a lovely and much appreciated touch to make us feel right at home.

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!

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.

We were in town for the Honolulu marathon and this property is close to the finish line and was perfect for our stay! Great host, we had everything we needed! Thank you Courtney and team!

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

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!

We enjoyed this condo and the location. It worked well for our family of 4. We appreciated the 2 twin beds in the 2nd room for my boys. Walking distance tp everything we needed

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.

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.

I like the personal note card touch when I arrived at the condo. Everything was so nice and clean for my family and I to do. Thank you and we will be looking forward to come back and stay again!!

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.
