Michael, I wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed your condo it is a home away from home not just a condo. I set on the balcony and enjoyed the rainbows many times, one day 3 times. It is in a perfect location away from all the noise but just close enough to still be right there within walking distance of everything. The mattress on the sofa bed was wonderful. The views were perfect. Thank you so much for letting us share your home I would recommend it to everyone. I also want to thank you for your help lining up the other condo (I needed 2). Thanks again Lisa

Beatiful views, convenient parking, great location only a couple of minutes walk from the beach / main strip. The condo is equipped with pretty much everything you would want to have for a beach holiday. Michael (the owner) is easy and efficient to deal with; we would definitely come back!

We have just returned from staying at this great oceanview unit. The unit was very clean. We also appreciated the extra convenciences like boogie board and beach chairs. The oceanview was amazing. Free parking is a great benefit.

I visited with my 11 year old daughter, the unit was very clean and the description was quite accurate. We will be happy to return to this unit. It is a great location, very close to waikiki beach, bus and excursions stops, and numerous restaurants. Great value for the price as we had been to other locations in waikiki that were not as pleasant. Full services downstairs with a concierge, enjoyable partial view of the ocean, it is just so cool to watch the surfers in the water from your bed at 6 am. The owner was uber-helpful throughout the process, he was always available to answer my numerous questions both by phone and email before and during our stay, very sympathic person. He gave us great advice and suggestions, it was such a pleasure to deal with. Five star location, five star service. Thank you again for everything.

Our family (2 adults, one small child) spent 2 weeks in Waikiki in april 2011. We had a great time at the Banyan, in part due to the great location of the condo, steps from the beach and the amenities in the Banyan Tower (pool, outdoor BBQ, children's playground). Furthermore, the view from the lanai is indeed superb. Perfect for evening relaxation. Michael, the owner, was very courteous and helpful before AND during our stay.

Thank you Michael, I had a wonderful 6 night stay at your property, it is very well equipped including EXCELLENT beach chairs. It is cozy at the same time it has those magnificent views. I felt so at home and really enjoyed my stay, and you can't beat the location, in the center of everything and just minutes to fabulous beaches and entertainment. I will definitely be back!

We had a great holiday - your condo was terrific & the views fantastic - enjoyed sitting in the lanai with a glass in hand admiring the perfect location. It was great having a parking ticket as we hired a car. Thanks for arranging for us to leave our bags when we arrived. It was appreciated. All the best. Maureen & Charlie, Sydney, Australia

My husband and I recently stayed in your lovely appartment in August of this year. I was so lucky to bring in my 40th birthday in Hawaii and staying in your appartment just made it so much better. It was such a delight to wake up and see the glorious serene ocean views of the "famous Waikiki" and have all the modern amenites needed to have a pleasure trip. We would most definitely recomend to all and we are hoping to come back next year in August. Thank you Michael for the experience to stay with you !!!

Sitting on the lanai, casting a contemplative gaze at the ants (way below on street) scurrying among the ABC stores in consideration of cheap jewelry, I was momentarily distracted by two warm soft compassionate eyes gazing back at me, from the chair next, with a hint of distance. The eyes showed total relief from the winter of their discontent. The eyes are my vacation. And the eyes were comfortable, safe, and ready for adventure. The eyes were HAPPY with my selection of accommodation. The eyes enjoyed: -The View -The Location: close enough but sufficient away; High away from the traffic and the spring break .......
