Mahalo for this wonderful home away from home (Luxurious too, I might add) Location couldn't be any better we had everything we needed right here at our finger tips. Be assured, we will be back and will be booking our stay with you. There are no words to describe our stay here in Waikiki. Amazing, wonderful, fun, relaxing are only a few words I can think of. Oh Yea and hotels be gone- we will stay here again, hands down. Thank-you once again!!!

We can' say enough about the communication before we arrived: it was very personable. We were given great attention by Bobber. Upon our arrival, he was there to greet us and make us feel at home. The suite was clean, neat, tidy, very well presented with good quality decor and utensils. WAAAAYYYYY better than any hotel we've ever stayed in. The location was only a 5 minute walk to the beach and all the hilights of Waikiki. Included parking is a great bonus. The pool was nice and we had laundry right around the corner on our floor. The only 'concern' we had was the traffic in the neighborhood. It's a busy area.Safety was never an issue; the building is secure and well lit. On our next visit, we plan to stay at Bobber's Turtle Bay suite as well as the 'Lux. Thanks for everything Bobber. TnTnT Vancouver Canada
Owner response:Mahalo Trevor and Tracey, So glad you enjoyed your stay, look forward to seeing you again soon. You'll love Turtle Cove. Bobber

This studio apartment is excellent value for a couple who wants to spend a week or two in the heart of Waikiki and not break the bank. The agent is a great guy and goes to lengths to ensure that you enjoy your stay. The unit was recently remodeled and the result is functional and attractive. The unit is fully equipped for making your own meals, or at least breakfast and lunch, as we did. The electronics are up to date and free in-suite internet, free N. America calling and free parking are advantages offered by no other similar accommodation in Waikiki to my knowledge. The most significant down-side of this unit stems from it's excellent location. It is on a busy and noisy street. Other quibbles are common to other places we have stayed in Waikiki - non-smoking rules not adequately enforced and there is insufficient safe parking for bicycles.

What a great place with everything you need to have a very comfortable stay! Photos and written descriptors accurately reflect everything in the unit. It was great to have internet and phone service provided. The secure building is safe, the central location is close to everything and you can't beat the price. We enjoyed sitting on the Lanai while we were in our unit and ate every meal there. The unit was air conditioned but we loved to sleep with the lanai open and enjoy the comfortable evening air. Owner was very friendly and helpful. He met us at the building to get us set up. We will definitely book again. This unit was perfect for the two of us. Thanks for a great vacation!
Owner response:Aloha Bunny & Larry We are so glad you enjoyed your stay with us and look forward to seeing you again soon

My fiancé and I stayed for 6 nights at Marine Surf. The building and condo was above our expectations. The owner was great to deal with and made us feel at ease. It's about a block and a half to the beach and right beside a Starbucks!! Beautiful mornings and relaxing evenings. I wish we could have stayed longer. The condo has everything you could ask for, even a blender for a healthy shake in the morning or margaretas in the afternoon to enjoy on the lani! Thanks for everything Bobber!!
Owner response:Mahalo Jason look forward to seeing you again, maybe try out the beach next time. Happy New Year and all the Best

Mahalo!! Jon and I just loved your place. It was comfortable, trendy and conveniently located. Coming back to Waikiki is always special for us and we want to thank you for making our visit special. Thanks too for hooking us your with a plumber. he was great and took good care of us. As we talked about we may be back next year with my sister and her family. If we do travel together we will combine our stays with your place on the west side. In my humble opinion, you can't beat the price or locations of your rentals! We'll be back

Thank you of providing such a great space for us to enjoy!! It really felt like a home away from home and we are sad to leave it today. Love that we were able to have relatives in the unit next door and through out the building. Family breakfasts at home were a great way to start the day. We look forward to returning to the islands and will recommend WaikikiLux to all our friends and family.

THANK YOU BOBBER!! It was a super treat staying at WaikikiLux 507. The location was perfect for all the places we wanted to go. Especially being 1.5 blocks away from my brothers wedding reception held at the Royal Hawaiian. Thank you for being a wonderful host & providing us a lovely home away from home. From my experience at WaikikiLux, I will never consider booking at hotels anymore on further vacations because renting your condo gave me the feeling of being a local resident in Waikiki. I look forward in booking with you in the near future.

We cannot even believe what an amazing place you have here!! It is absolutely beautiful & what a wonderful way to start our honeymoon adventure. We loved this "piece of paradise" comes fully equipped with beach chairs, umbrella, snorkeling gear and much much more. The Turtles are amazing! (the size of 8 year old boys) & squid to boot. Just breath taking!! Morning, noon & night, the beach is a sanctuary. Thank you so much for everything. We will be back-no doubt!!

We stayed a few nights in Waikiki and a few at Turtle Cove. The price, the facility and the experience was amazing. We highly reccomend it and if we ever have a chance to come back to oaahu will stay here again. It was greta being able to cook our own food.Turtle Cove was so peaceful. A major concern my husband had prior to our arrival was safety (he's a cop). One thing he repeatedly said at both places was that it was very secure.

A Kiwi, Mahalo for the use of your condo. You can't get much better for a beach place holiday. We enjoyed the walk along the beach and plenty swims. We even saw the Turtles. The condo is well appointed and had everything you would need. We managed to quiet the squeak in the bed, but that may have been our fault!! The view from the lanai is fabulous and a great place to watch the activity on the beach and sunset drinks.

Thank you for the use of your two apartments. From the First day to the last we enjoyed the location & facilities you provided. Walking distance to most of the city was great & needless to say the shopping! Once again we appreciate your offer and would definitely be asking again, including the kids, they were wrapped.

We wouldn't think of anywhere else we would have rather spent our honeymoon. We hope we can sleep when we return home, as we have gotten used to falling asleep to the sounds of crashing waves. Not a bad thing to get use to! Thanks for allowing us to stay here at your condo. We loved everything about it. We hope to have the chance to return very soon!

The view, the nights sleeping on the lanai & great beach-all of it was unforgettable. You provided everything we could possibly need or want. The newly remodeled kitchen is beautiful! We are referring this place to all of our friends and its' a guarantee that we will be back. You made this vacation the best we've ever taken - Mahalo!!!

Thank you for another great visit! We love your condo. It is always so wonderfully stocked, supplying us with everything we needed. This condo has the best location to visit Waikiki, everything is so close by, within walking distance. And The Bus to Ala Moana Mall, or Wal-Mart is just across the street. So convenient! We will be back next year sometime for our 3rd stay here at their great condo.

Many, many Mahalo's!!! We don' even know where to begin.... This was the BEST vacation ever! All of it was possible thanks to you! Our stay here at the Hawaiian Princess was incredible. We had absolutely everything we would need right at the end of our fingerstips. The view was breathtaking-our pictures don't even begin to capture the beauty of this little piece of paradise. The hardest part was deciding whether or not to watch the view from the lanai or go down to the beach for a swim. We loved falling asleep on the lanai while listening to the waves crash along the beach. Room 704 was amazing.... truly, truly amazing!! Thanks again for your incredible hospitality- We WILL be back
