Map & Owner's Profile
Beautiful, Spacious, Steps to Waikiki Beach!
Year Purchased: 2005
Why the Owner Chose Tradewinds Plaza
The location of my condo also beats the waikiki traffic! Because you can take Kapahulu avenue from H-1 down towards the beach, then the last right turn you can make before hitting the beach is Lemon rd. (yes its that close) this makes it easy to get in and out without having to drive all the way through waikiki everytime which can get quite congested somedays. Trust me this end of waikiki is much better unless you like to be in the middle of waikiki where the beach is so tiny and crowded you can hardly find a spot to lay down on and yet its still a 10 minute stroll from the middle of it all so you can go there too easily for the international market place and everything else.
The Unique Benefits at this Studio
This building "Tradewinds Plaza" I chose as well because it is very unique compared to most vacation rentals/hotels in Waikiki. For starters its not a condo-hotel, Its a privately owned condo and its much smaller than most buildings. You'll notice how nicely the building exterior and common areas are kept by the property managers, Mary and Joe Hardin. The security is also a nice touch, you must have a card key to access the building and parking areas that are gated. There are several surveillance cameras around the building as well just as an added security measure not that there has been a lot of crime in the area but alot of buildings you can just walk right into and the car area is not secured either. Did I also mention how close this building is to the beach?? Seriously, I can not emphasize this enough, the condo is clean and recently remodled but so are a lot of condos, the thing you will notice (everyone does who stays there) is the super short walk to the beach. Most hotels in this area (this close to the beach run at $200/night and up) There is also a full kitchen complete with all the dishes and cookware you would need and snorkel gear, beach chairs, a boogie board for your use, free cable TV, parking included, A/C and a partial ocean view. What more do you want? There is not a swimming pool in this building but personally I wouldn't come all the way to Hawaii, land of the most gorgeous and famous beaches in the world to swim in a swimming pool so this didn't matter to me when purchasing a condo in Waikiki.
Traditonal zoo (small-moderately sized) on the weekends, local artists and craftsman display their works on the "Zoo Fence" for purchase. Makes a great stroll around the zoo to see.
Waikiki Aquarium, although a smaller aquarium it offers a great variety of things to see and learn about Hawaii's unique marine eco-systems.
Kapiolani park, Waikiki's largest park where you can see soccer games going on, BBQ's, picnics in the park, people bike riding, jogging, walking their dogs, playing music and just enjoying a walk arou

Only a 10 minute stroll from the condo along the gorgeous beach gets you to the center of waikiki where you'll find the Duke Kahanamoku (father of surfing) statue and a live web-cam where you can danc

Owner's Map of Tradewinds Plaza
I love Hawaii!!! And hope you will too. I also love my condo, the location is the best part, its on Lemon Rd. which is so close to my favorite area of waikiki, where the beach is a little less crowded (and larger beach area) and where the free movies on the beach are set up on the weekends. Its also the end of waikiki with the pier where you can watch the daring boogie boarders and/or the gorgeous sunset every night and right across the street from beautiful lush Kapiolani park, perfect for an early morning stroll/jog/bike around the park and just up the street is Diamond head as well. I also try hard to maintain the appeal of my condo as a vacation home by keeping things newer, clean and working well. I actively listen to suggestions from previous tenants to make the place even greater such as recently replacing the sofa and adding artwork on the walls. I also like to paint the beautiful scenery I see in Hawaii so the artwork you will see in the condo is mine. My goal is to make a clean, comfortable setting away from home where you can still enjoy the comforts of home and enjoy Hawaii for a reasonable price. Feel free to ask me for advice on things to see and do on Oahu, I have been living there for 6 years and love playing tourguide! I am also a realtor so if you need help/info about buying/selling in Hawaii let me know! I love talking real estate! Mahalo and Aloha!
