Rare Unobstructed Diamond Head-Ocean Views, Best location, Pool, 1 minute to Beach
We are so excited to add this legally permitted studio to our Waikiki vacation rentals. Located only a minute from Waikiki Beach, this piece of paradise on the 9th floor of a 10-story building provides unobstructed views. Instead of staring at another condo building, you'll see the greenery of Kapiolani Park, the Honolulu Zoo, Diamond Head, and Waikiki Beach. Yet it is very close to all the wonderful Waikiki Amenities.
We looked at rooms in this building for ten years and finally found this fantastic studio. We installed new granite counters, a full-size refrigerator, a kitchen sink, high-quality split air conditioning, a 40" flat-screen TV, and much more. Stay connected with complimentary high-speed fiber optic cable WIFI and enjoy streaming your favorite shows on Netflix, Amazon Video, and others on the internet-connected TV.
It is an excellent location for those that love the outdoors. The lovely Kapiolani Park and the beach are across the street, where you can walk, run, surf, boogie board, swim, and even hike up Diamond Head! It is also the perfect location if laying on the beach is your form of exercise!
Is surf up? Just look out the window to find out! The prime boogie-boarding spot in Waikiki is only 1 minute away and we provide two adult-size boogie boards, two Tommy Bahama backpack beach chairs and a beach umbrella. Adjacent to the boogie-boarding site is a huge beach area protected by a sea wall that forms a gigantic saltwater pool with lifeguards for added safety.
Though the room is on the small side, you have a table and chairs on your private lanai (balcony) with an unobstructed Diamond Head and ocean view; you also have use of the huge observation deck with stunning views on the 10th floor.
Parking is available at the on-site parking garage at Waikiki's most reasonable rate, especially considering that we are virtually across the street from the world's most famous beach. Details on reserving parking are provided after booking.
The room comes with free private WIFI, flat screen tv, cable TV, all linens, beach towels, full size refrigerator, microwave, toaster, induction cooktop with pots and pans, coffee maker, toaster, dishes and utensils, iron and ironing board, two full-size boogie boards, 2 Tommy Bahama backpack beach chairs, and a small beach cooler.
For your convenience and security, we will ask you for a code that is easy for you to remember, and we will use it to set the keypad lock to the room.
The Waikiki Grand Hotel offers fantastic amenities, including a beautiful lobby (with a grand piano), front desk concierge services, a swimming pool, coin operated laundry facilities, a hamburger restaurant, another restaurant/bar, onsite parking garage, two elevator and the 10th floor boasts a remarkable observation deck with panoramic views of Diamond Head, Kapiolani Park, the Honolulu Zoo, and Waikiki Beach.

This place was great! The room is small but for the most part we were out and about anyway. It was really nice to have all of the beach essentials in the closet. The views from the lanai are gorgeous. Parking was a bit tricky as it’s in a very popular area but the front desk was really helpful in figuring out options. Highly recommend!
Excellent location, calm at night, handy to beach and shops.
After breakfast on the balcony overlooking the Zoo and beach, we were able to go for a swim in the morning then drive around the island doing visits then in the evening walk around the shops. Excellent location.
I loved the room, we stayed for our honeymoon and we had a wonderful time. I would stay again. The room is small, but it works great for two people.
Great views and location.
We absolutely loved this place! It is small but has everything needed for 2 people to stay comfortably for well over a week. The views from the balcony are amazing! It is right on the edge of the busy beach area so it is perfect for those that want to have access to the fancy shops and restaurants but if that’s not your thing, it’s easy to avoid. Building is literally a 3 minute walk to the beach, and the room has everything needed for hanging at the beach! Would 100% stay here again!

The view itself will be enough to say yes to this property! it was a beautiful, secure spot, the manager was tentative to all our needs including front reception. Real friendly staff, best location we went to the beach every day because of the location!
This conveniently located gem is the perfect spot to stay and enjoy Waikiki Beach. The host was incredibly thorough in their communication and checked in throughout the stay to ensure we had everything we needed. If you’re looking for an alternative to the big hotels in a great location, look no further!
Just a quick stay in Oahu before heading back home. Amazing location in Waikiki with amazing views. Great parking situation as well. The room itself is small but met our needs well, had everything we neede
9th floor balcony overlooks zoo, view of beach and Diamondhead, always a nice breeze, so we ate many meals there. The location is close to hop on/off trolleys which we used for transportation. Hotel staff is very helpful and Steve is very attentive. We would stay there again.
Great Property! Amazing location! Incredible view from private Lanai. Woke every morning to the distant sound of the animals at Honolulu Zoo looking over the park and Diamond Head. Everything you could possibly need for a beach holiday. Would definitely recommend and book next time I am in Waikiki
This is the place to stay! The views are absolutely amazing! Walking distance to the beach was great! You can walk across the street to the zoo. Communication with the property manager was so easy. We would book this place again and again.
Extraordinary view of Diamond Head & ocean. Very compact and functional unit. Loved the lanai. Very comfortable bed. Lots of hot water,excellent communication with owner. Unit was well- equipped and everything worked just fine.
This is a fantastic property. The location is amazing. Walking distance to the beach, zoo, shops and restaurants. The unit itself is just what yiu need. Small, but with all the amenities. We will definitely be back!
Perfect location with beautiful views and easy access to beach, restaurants and shops. Small but wonderfully stocked and efficient unit. Steve was awesome in his care and communication.

SMALL room
Great location BUT exceptionally small room (not large enough be referred to as “studio apartment). Photos very misleading.
Living on the edge of glory. Waikiki can become too crowded and sometimes too tourists. This location is primo for the best of both worlds. The zoo park and diamondhead bring the calm needed.
The condo was located so close to the beach, many great restaurants, and shopping establishments. This made our stay so convenient. The condo was clean and comfortable. The view of Diamond Head and Waikiki beach from the condo and our balcony was absolutely phenomenal!
The condo owner, Steve is kind, professional, and was very timely with his responses. We will definitely be returning!
There are no surprises with this room. The room was exactly as pictured with one of the Best views in Wakiki! You get a great view of the ocean and Diamond Head as well. If you zoom in with your camera you can even see the adventure seekers at the top of the volcano!!!!
