We were visiting friends and family for the holidays and this newly renovated condo was absolutely perfect. A gorgeous clear view of Diamond Head and ocean to the left, with some buildings to the front as pictured, but none were close at all. The balcony turned out to be a great place to watch the New Year’s fireworks. The building still has some construction projects, but we did not have any noise issues at all. Just a small detour to enter the garage and one of the four elevators out of service. The building’s hallway carpet hasn’t been replaced yet, so I was a bit wary as we approached the unit for the first time, but we opened the door to reveal a spectacular view and ultra clean apartment! The laundry room is only a few doors away (one on every floor), and the parking (yes it really is free!) is a huge plus in Waikiki. Even though there isn’t assigned parking, we never had a problem finding a spot. Just FYI the garage does have a height limit- SUVs fit ok, but large vans are too tall. The kitchen is spacious and the open plan gave us plenty of room to eat in, hang out, and enjoy the breeze and the view. We would definitely stay here again! The only things I would add are a salad bowl and maybe a larger pot, but I’m sure most visitors don’t cook on vacation as much as we do. One regret is forgetting to tip the cleaning staff as they do a perfect job!
