Makai Suite - 2 bdrm, 1 bath on Hawaii's Gold Coast
Listen to the ocean and feel the sea breezes sweep over you as you relax beneath the shadows of swaying coconut trees. Let the Makai Suite be your comfortable place to return to after the day’s adventures.
The Makai Suite is a 2 bedroom, 1 bath suite located on the 2nd floor of the Diamond Head Beach Hotel & Residences, an oceanfront building on Oahu’s Gold Coast. The 750 square feet interior of The Makai Suite is tastefully simple and overly comfortable. The living room has an over-sized sofa with a pull out bed , a large flat-screen TV, DVD player, Bose surround sound and track lighting that dims. However **PLEASE NOTE** TO GET TO THE SECOND BEDROOM, YOU MUST WALK THROUGH THE FIRST BEDROOM TO GAIN ACCESS TO IT . THERE IS A PRIVACY CURTAIN. Both bedrooms have their own access to bathroom. There is a full kitchen with granite counter tops that include a dishwasher and everything you need to prepare a meal. The Makai Suite also comes with free Wi-Fi and cable television throughout the duration of your stay.
The Makai Suite does NOT have an ocean view, however the building features a beautiful lawn/garden area at the back of the building with lawn chairs and tables to watch the sunset or relax facing the ocean.
The Diamond Head Beach Hotel and Residences offers a peaceful, island atmosphere while being close enough to all the action. Located just minutes from Waikiki Beach along Kalakaua Avenue where you’ll find some of Honolulu’s best dining and entertainment. Ideal for those who want a quiet, low profile atmosphere, yet still want to be close to the city life. The Makai Suite will feel less like a hotel and more like your own ocean side condo.
There is street parking available on a first come, first serve basis. **Note- this is metered parking between the hours of 10am-6pm, free outside of those hours. If you would like parking in the building garage, we could reserve a space for you, the rate is $30 per night.
You can access your codes and check in instructions here on VRBO the day of your check in.

Disappointing
This place has potential but is sorely neglected. Lights dont work, dusty lampshades. The freezer door below the fridge does not close. There was a rug folded up in front of it ro catch the leaking water. The frezzer is all iced over. The coffee pot was filthy and is all a burnt through on the bottom. We contacted the host immediately but never heard back. We also contacted VRBO. No word from anyone!

Dark unit
The unit could use some updating. I found it very dark as you don’t want to open the curtains as one side of the unit is on the walkway and the other overlooks a very old and unkept building where residents have very messy outdoor areas.

Great sunset views
The back patio is the perfect place to watch the sunset. Very quiet and secluded. Most of our activities were about an hour away but, everywhere you look is breathtaking. The property was an excellent place to come back to and relax. The portable beach chairs and umbrellas you provided were a very pleasant surprise. We’ll definitely be back again if you’ll have us and, recommend your property to anyone coming to this beautiful island.

The condo was really nice and clean with a quiet atmosphere. Great location. The sunsets at night on the back lawn area overlooking the ocean were amazing.

Family friendly, beautiful location
We had a short family trip to Hawaii. The makai suite was just what we needed. The living room was amazing, comfortable after a long day. The beds were comfy and the air conditioning in the room was a plus. We live in Alaska and it was much needed. My favorite part was at the back of the building overlooking the ocean. I recommend this place for family's looking for a place to stay in Hawaii. Thank you from my family. Mahalo!!

Wonderful holiday with family!
This is a wonderful property. Everything that you could possibly think to need is here. All you need to do is show up and enjoy! Wifi was reliable. Lots of TV and movie channels for family movie nights. The location is perfect. We especially loved watching the sunsets every evening from the patio area which is directly over the ocean with comfortable chairs to sit back and enjoy. We found the other residents and guests to all be friendly and nice - it is a very great area of Oahu and within short drive of Pearl Harbor, lots of beaches, shopping, etc. I will definitely look forward to coming back here to vacation time and time again. Thanks Mia!

2947 Kalakaua was decent
The place was decent, good enough. my complaints feel a little picky but i wish i'd known ahead to here it is: 2 bedrooms is misleading - we needed 2 bedroom, but this was a room off a bedroom -maybe a walk in closet from the one bedroom turned into a bedroom. windows did not have screens, so we continuously used a noisy air conditioner that blasted cold air onto the sofa seating when on, room was stuffy if left off.; parking free on the other side of the park across the street; the apartment has no view or balcony - there is a nice terrace at the end of the building, usually not crowded. my final fee was 50% than the initial search listing - expect added fees.
