"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!"

"Wonderful stay. What a spectacular oceanfront view! I could stay in the room all day just sitting on the balcony looking at the view! Everything in the apartment was new and looked very clean. The mattress was sooooo comfortable, and I could sleep in with the blackout curtains! Highly recommend this rental!"

7.8 out of 10, Good, (15 reviews)
"The room is bigger than what I expected. It's a corner apartment, with windows to view the surrounding and great fresh air if you open both balcony door and kitchen window. You have a glimpse of the diamond head from the kitchen and the mountain view from the living room/bedroom. The laundry room is few steps away. The host was very accommodative with our request for late check out. Will definitely try to stay here again in the future."
