About this apartment rental

You'll be sitting on top of the world at this spacious 2-bedroom, 2-bath Penthouse with an open living room and fully-equipped kitchen.

The jaw-dropping 270-degree view includes Diamond Head, a sweeping ocean view, the Ala Wai Canal, the Ala Wai golf course, Ft DeRussy Park, the beautiful Koolau Mountain range, and both sunrises and sunsets!

This is a legal vacation rental property managed by a licensed real estate broker with over 20 years of experience with Hawaii vacation rentals. You won't have to worry if your rental will be there when you arrive.

The penthouse is excellent for families and friends; less expensive than a hotel, it features a full kitchen, and at over 1,000 square feet (large by Waikiki standards), the penthouse comfortably accommodates 6. The ocean-side primary bedroom has a king bed, the Diamond Head-side primary bedroom has two full beds, and the living room has a new high-quality Queen sofa bed. In addition, we have a crib available at no charge. The bedrooms, living/dining room and kitchen all have spectacular views. Every Friday night, you can watch the fireworks launched from the nearby Hilton Hawaiian Village, and on special occasions, you'll see a bigger show on Waikiki Beach.

You'll have a fully equipped kitchen with a full-size refrigerator, stove, microwave, blender, coffee pot and grinder, pots and pans, silverware and just about anything else you need. To top it off, the kitchen has a panoramic ocean view!

One bathroom features a Japanese-style deep bathtub (furo) with a shower. The second bathroom has a walk-in shower. You'll also have your own washer and dryer in the penthouse.
A supply cabinet contains beach chairs, boogie boards, beach towels and assorted beach items.

You'll enjoy the huge recreation deck featuring a large swimming pool, hot tub, barbecue grills, picnic tables and lounge chairs. There are no resort fees to use these facilities. Also on site is a new fitness center, which is almost free: it only costs $5 for your entire stay (not per day).

There is a large flat-screen TV with cable service and a Roku device. The free high-speed WIFI is your private network, not shared with other units, and is powerful enough for the whole family to share their vacation experience.

The Hawaii Convention Center is within walking distance, as are the Hilton Hawaiian Village and other venues where conventions are held. If you need to conduct business while in Waikiki, there is a desk in one of the bedrooms and a nook in the dining area.

The Hawaiian Monarch is a mixture of hotel-owned and privately owned units. Our penthouse is privately owned, managed, and maintained. which means we can offer more personalized service and a higher standard of care. There are only three other penthouses on the same floor. Four elevators provide access.

Parking is available in the on-site parking garage. The garage is privately owned and the rate at the time of this writing is $45/day with full in and out privileges. Parking is not included in the rent, as most of our guests do not rent a car. The penthouse has a Walk Score of 92 (out of 100). Some guests rent a car for a day of exploring from one of the nearby car rental companies. Turo is available for car rentals, too.

The Hawaii Convention Center is within walking distance, as are the Hilton Hawaiian Village and other venues where conventions are held. If you need to conduct business while in Waikiki, there is a desk in one of the bedrooms and a nook in the dining area.

Within walking distance are many restaurants and shopping, including Ala Moana Shopping Center, resorts, grocery and convenience stores, music venues, sports bar, post office, green parks, Waikiki Beach Walk, and of course, Waikiki Beach itself!

Waikiki and the surrounding area have a gazillion things to do. Of course, there is the world's most famous beach. Many water sports are available, including surfing, paddleboarding, boogieboarding, snorkeling, scuba diving, deep-sea fishing, parasailing, and more. There is shopping for everything from souvenir trinkets to high-end luxury stores and everything in between.

Hear world-class music at many resorts, such as Blue Note Jazz Club, the Waikiki Shell, the Blaisdell Arena, and local musicians playing rock, jazz, and, of course, the soothing sound of Hawaiian music.

Honolulu has an extensive public bus system, and a bus stop is located across the street from the penthouse. Buses reach many areas over the island, including major destinations such as Pearl Harbor, Diamond Head, Hanauma Bay, Chinatown, Honolulu Airport, Honolulu Zoo, The Aquarium and others.

In addition to all these visitor attractions, there is another reason to visit Hawaii: the rich Hawaiian culture. Aloha is a real thing, not just a buzzword. You'll know it when you experience it. We encourage you to learn about the culture and history through the many museums and to personally connect with the Hawaiian people.

Our local weatherperson likes to say we have 'the best weather on the planet.' Is it cold where you are? Come to Waikiki and warm up! Are you suffering from unbearable heat and humidity? Come to Waikiki and cool off! Our average daily temperature is in the low to mid-80s F (27 C) all year.

Yes- everything was stocked-clean- and ready to go for a perfect vacation. Steve was ready to help with check-in, and was very informative on the area. View was breathtaking- close to everything.
10 / 10Outstanding·Mar 2026
The ONLY reason I knocked anything off was due to some sort of miscommunication with housekeeping about when the place needed to be cleaned so we walked in to see unmade beds and dirty dishes. Steve rectified the situation immediately and we did our grocery shopping while we waited. In the end, no harm, no foul.Instructions were all crystal clear and parking, while expensive, was a breeze. The food truck park next door could have been our stop for every single meal. Make sure to take advantage of the binoculars in the unit to see whales!!!

Holiday Vacation We decided to spend the Thanksgiving holiday in Oahu. This rental really made the stay amazing. It is well equipped and the view is absolutely amazing! The view of Diamond Head and Waikiki were stunning. The unit came with beach chairs, boogie boards, beach umbrella, and beach towels. These amenities really added to the beach fun It is easy to get to and nicely located. We loved it and wouldn't hesitate to book here again. Aloha!
