Great location of quaint condo close to all the Waikiki hotspots

We enjoyed the condo and it served our needs for sleeping and resting after a long day enjoying the Island. It’s a bit smaller than the pictures lead on (inside), however, we didn’t come to Oahu to stay inside all day and laze around a house/condo. It served excellent jumping point to all the hotspots within walking distance to Waikiki, as well as close proximity to major veins to get around the island. The view from the balcony is breathtaking and served as a great vantage point in the morning and evening. WiFi was not working well, but building WiFi served as backup and fit our needs well. The AC didn’t cool the bedrooms rooms (we prefer a cooler nighttime, but opened the windows and let the fresh ocean breeze cool us at night. Would highly recommended for the value and proximity. Would definitely stay again and appreciate the host/management sending detailed instructions.

Great location

I wish I could give a “4.5” to this property. Here are the pros: 1) Great location—within a mile of Waikiki beach and shopping 2) Spotless 3) Beds are comfortable 4) Condo is supplied with plenty of dishes, pans, etc all in good shape 5) WiFi is strong 6) Byron is helpful Cons: 1) This is an old building with soiled carpeting and poorly maintained hallways 2) This is a 38-floor building with the condo on the 24th, but only two elevators of the four are in working order—of course they are on the ends so if you are standing on the Murphy’s Law end and don’t scurry to the other end you’ll miss it and have to wait another round. According to staff, it’s been that way a while. 3) The very heavy door of the condo is old with a broken spring to soften the closure. The smart lock wasn’t working and so the three of us had to be sure someone had the solo key. 4) There is an app to pay for laundry and it is located right next door to the condo—good news is it’s close, bad news is you get to hear people going in and out doing their laundry. 5) As of December, the property has some kind of construction going on. There is no place to park while you check in—fortunately Byron was on site and could come out to the street to give us the parking pass for the garage. 6) Leaving requires loading your car, having one of your party pull out and park in a “no parking” zone while another waits for one of the two elevators to go back up to the condo and return the pass to the condo.

Waikiki Sunset Stay

We really enjoy staying on this end of Waikiki. The building is easy to get to. Parking was easy. Great communication with the host and the unit itself is clean and has a nice view of Diamond Head. The only issue we had with the unit is the shower head is super strong or a mist, with no in-between, which was annoying because you have to hold it in your hand. The building itself, however, could really use some updating. The hallway carpets need replacing, the reception area could be a lot more welcoming, the snack shop and fitness room were closed, an elevator was wonky... those sorts of things. They aren't vital to have a good time, but would certainly go a long way in getting a return visit.

Fantastic Island Getaway

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!

Location great. Building subpar

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very 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: The good Captain Cook was easy to work with and a great company overall. The unit was dated, but clean. In a great location. Walkable to the beach, stores , restaurants. Had no issues with parking.The bad- we booked this unit for the location and pool. The pool was closed for maintenance two days of our stay. The elevators were also out of order intermittently for two days. We were notified by a sign inside the elevator. Had I known of these issues, we would have either not booked this unit or planned to be on excursions during this time period. As it was, we were on the 24th floor, so we needed up being trapped inside for several hours. We did receive a small refund, but really not worth it considering the impact. According to other long term guests, the elevator issues are common. The pull out sofa does not have a mattress- it's a 4inch piece of foam suitable for a child only.

Great vacation spot!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Re: Waikiki Sunset 24th floor, we found the location to be perfect. Close to the zoo, Starbucks, restaurants and the beach. The beach on this end has a wonderful barrier that keeps the big waves and crabs (& other sea life) just beyond your floating paradise. Everyone on floaties and so peaceful. The pool gets shady around noon and is very windy always. The wind on the 2 blocks around the front entrance of Waikiki Sunset is a constant wind tunnel (very very strong.) After 2 blocks it gets sunnier and hotter the closer you get to the beach! The suite was a 2 bedroom with pull out couch in the living room. Never have I ever had a pull out couch that was posturepedic with boards and thin mattress. So sagging mattress with springs in your back! The queen and twins were very good quality. No one had back aches. The starting supplies like dishwashing liquid, paper towel and coffee filters lasted the whole 10 days. We only had to buy 1 pack of tp (as there were 5 of us.) There were ample towels and beach towels, really nice Tommy Bahama beach chairs and a great little kitchen. We were fine without laundry and dishwasher but they gave us a jar of laundry pods for the coin laundry room which was just beside our suite. Very thoughtful! The tub was a combo short tub and shower and we thought it was great. The view of Diamond Head directly out the lanai was so beautiful and the partial view of the ocean was amazing. The Waikiki area has a lot of emergency vehicle sirens going all times of day and night. I presume some of it is to move along the homeless. The stay was fantastic and my Mom (85) kept saying how pleased she was with the accommodation she had paid for! Thanks to our lovely host Byron! We would highly recommend this AirBNB. Thanks!
