Christmas in Oahu

First off, this hotel is perfectly located for travellers such as myself who much prefer being outside of the major tourist area of Waikiki. Being attached to the Ala Moana mall was wonderful. Considering the unit has most of the amenities to eat in the food court at Ala Moana is the best I have ever been to. I would like to thank Helen for providing all the necessecities right down to a welcoming bottle of wine. :) Plenty of towel, beach gear etc. The hotel has easy access laundry on 2 floors and laundry soap was provided which was great! My only suggestion would be to have bedding similar to what is shown in the photos rather than the fire retardant synthetic ones that were there. And perhaps the guest binder needs to be updated as some of the restaurants no longer exist. Free wifi is available on the first 3 floors of the hotel. All in all this unit was clean, well stocked, in a great location and extremely affordable considering how close it to everything. It is perfect for 2 people. I hope that it is available on our next visit to Oahu.

My wife and I married in beautiful Honolulu, and Helen provided a fantastic condo for our use. The place is very clean, with modern amenities and a charming setup. She was very warm and helpful, and offered special use of her amenities. The champagne was a wonderful touch. ' We will definitely stay here again when we visit Hawaii, something that is becoming a twice a year thing. Mahalo Helen!

Mahalo for everything! We loved the location, the convenience, the proximity. We spent a memorable holiday vacation in Hawaii. We appreciated your phone call but would have preferred to hear from you upon our arrival.

Thank you for the use of your condo. I have stayed here at the AlaMoana dozens of times over the past 10-12 years. Several times since the conversion & I must say your unit is by far the best set up. It lacks nothing. I hope to be staying here again soon, San Rafael, CA "Guest Comment Entered by Owner"

The accomodations were great. The beds were the most comfortable that I have ever slept on away from home. The bathroom was nice with a large tub/shower. Helen was very helpful. Would definitely recommend this place to someone looking for an inexpensive quiet condo that is centrally located.

Mahalo Helen & Paul - You've changed our way of travel arrangements. Everything was so convenient & you provided all the amenities. We were only in a need of an ice bucket. Friends in another condo at AlaMoana were also impressed by all you provided. Be sure to send us info at my emal on allyour properties so we can share it w/our friends on Kwaj. ?We especially appreciated the early check in & late check out. Thank you so much Kommol tata! (Marshallese - Thank you very much)
