This is a beautiful condo with amazing ocean views! We loved staying in this area - far enough away from Waikiki to be out of the crowds, but close enough to walk into the action. The condo had everything we needed, including beach gear, which was much appreciated. We very much enjoyed our stay and sunsets on the deck!

Views were great and it was as advertised. Could update a few things, but we enjoyed our stay and would recommend.
6 / 10Average·Apr 2025
It's hard to beat the view and location, however, this property should not be listed as a 'family favorite' as it is NOT safe for small children. This is the main reason I left one star for accuracy of online listing. All of the window coverings have long, floor length dangling cords which are VERY unsafe for small children. This is a massive safety issue for toddlers or younger children. The other safety issue is the patio/lanai - it is shallow in depth and full of patio furniture including the owner's storage box which is pushed right up to the edge on one side. A small child could climb up and easily fall off. The patio door is broken and constantly was either stuck open, or stuck close - NOT ideal for safety of small children. The door needs to be replaced. We ran out of dishwasher tabs/soap, garbage bags and hand soap during our stay - a sufficient amount of these basic amenities should have been provided for our group (5ppl) and length of stay (9 nights). The property managed responded promptly but the actual items weren't provided until 2 days after the request. We wouldn't stay here again unless safety upgrades were made.
