I told her we need to reserve it again for next year… have already recommended it to friends. ##### Jack G. Stayed 8 nights in May 2025 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Angelina R. 11 Apr 2025 #### Gorgeous View, Great Location Rating Details: The property manager was more than 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: The condo had a beautiful beach view, perfect for the fireworks. Extremely clean which is a huge plus. Location was also perfect. Walkable to most restaurants, shopping, and the marina, and there was a parking lot directly across the street for our car rental. Would definitely recommend! ##### Angelina R. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rebecca H. 25 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Like Beautiful open concept, studio, with large lanai patio, huge window window wall with fuse of the ocean and the fireworks. Far from the noise of the jackhammers, sirens and leaf blowers of downtown Waikiki. What a great location, breakfast every morning at the hotel next-door right at Waters edge. Can’t be beat, kitchen, washer, dryer, take your macadamia nuts and my ties out on the lanai and enjoy the tradewinds! ##### Rebecca H. Stayed 5 nights in Apr 2025 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 6/10 Okay #### Jason H. 5 Dec 2024 #### Absolute gorgeous view 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: The view from the suite is second to none. My only issue with this rental was the king size bed. It’s merely two twins that are pushed together that would separate during sleep, making it uncomfortable. ##### Jason H. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dianne F. 21 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Gorgeous setting, thoughtful owner The view is stunning and the condo was as well-appointed as the pictures show. We appreciated the generous supplies of paper products, dw, and washer cleaning tablets, beach chairs. The building itself seems very secure so I didn’t worry about leaving my belongings for the day. The condo layout is very spacious: Two 6’ closets with lots of hangers, tall dresser in the large dressing area. Location is truly beachfront. Recommend you take their suggestion of renting a parking space. There isn’t any public parking around there that we saw. One comment is that it would be helpful to leave condiments, spices, oils, tin foil, baggies, etc. instead of clearing it all out ##### Dianne F.
