3056 Kalakaua Association rules requires Homeowners to rent to only 1 Party every 30 nights. Therefore, 1 night or 30 nights is the same price. Some parties only stay 14 nights but the price is the same as if staying 30 nights. Some parties share the rented time with family and friends but the contract is written under one name.
Experience TRUE ALOHA in this condo that was home to James MacArthur, the original Danno of Hawaii Five-0, and is still owned by the MacArthur family. This premiere property is perfectly situated on Honolulu’s famous Gold Coast. It is on the 8th floor of a small, exclusive high rise building and only a short walk from the beautiful beaches of Diamond Head and Waikiki. Hard to come by parking is included for 2 full-size or 3 compact cars.
VIEWS! VIEWS! VIEWS!
Take in the spectacular and ever changing ocean views from slide-away glass doors in both the living room and master bedroom. Savor the gentle and delicious trade winds through push-out windows with views over the iconic Diamond Head volcano, Kapiolani Park, the famous surf spot 'Tongs' and Waikiki in the distance.
There is no air conditioning in the 3056 Kalakaua building.
LOCATION! LOCATION! LOCATION!
Waikiki is a short stroll down the road with endless options for fine dining, shopping, beaches and people watching. Also within walking distance is the Honolulu Zoo, Waikiki Aquarium, Kapiolani Park, Diamond Head hiking trails and public tennis courts, just to name a few.
U N W I N D............
Begin your evenings with a cold drink in hand, relaxing in the living room as the sun settles over the Pacific, or test your cooking skills on the community grill located on the 10th floor rooftop. Finally, fall asleep to the sound of the surf and in the morning wake up, roll over and check out the tide. There are sleeping accommodations for 5-6 guests with a king bed in the master, as well as a queen and trundle bed in the 2nd bedroom. Slide-away screens provide privacy between the master bedroom and living room.
So, go home to Danno's place. Share the peace and beauty experienced by James MacArthur, as well as his mother, legendary actress, Helen Hayes. Privacy, convenience and beautiful surroundings await you in this one-of-a-kind Diamond Head Condo by the Sea.
ALOHA...
About Helen B MacArthur
I met my husband, James MacArthur, as the first LPGA teaching golf pro at Waialae Country Club when he came for a lesson. He even carried my bag in LPGA tour events. That's when I knew he'd "made the cut"! Soon our son was old enough to join us golfing throughout the Hawaiian islands and in far away countries. We also watched our son through binoculars grow up surfing the waves at Tongs from our condo livingroom. My husband died in 2010 leaving us many years of happy memories of good times shared in our beloved Hawaii.
Helen B MacArthur purchased this condo in 1968
Why Helen B MacArthur chose Honolulu
James MacArthur purchased this property because it was everything he wanted. The private, secure building with unparalleled views in a quiet, residential neighborhood provided easy access to the Hawaii Film Studios, home of Hawaii Five-0, and a short walk to Tongs, his favorite surf spot. Time spent here with family and close friends was always special. Over the years his love and respect for Hawaii, the land, the culture and, most importantly, the people, never waned. James was accepted by the locals as ohana...family...an honor he treasured deeply. He described this condo, this link to so much he cared about as, "The best investment I ever made."
What makes this condo unique
The condo is an oasis overlooking the cosmopolitan hub of activity known as Waikiki. A quick glide down the elevator and you're out on the street, soaking up the surrounding beauty as you walk by Kapiolani Park and the enchanting Waikiki Aquarium on your way to a myriad of possible destinations. Wherever the day takes you, the road will eventually lead back to the peaceful haven from whence you began. The view of Waikiki at night is breathtaking, as is the looming presence of Diamond Head, but the darkness of the water, broken only by the lights of passing boats, is almost mesmerizing.
This quaint and friendly Gold Coast neighborhood sits comfortably on the edge of Waikiki, where the exciting pulse of Honolulu is both near and far at the same time. They say location is everything, and this can't get much better.

Hawaii Paradise
One cannot ask for a better location. At the very end of Kalakaua Ave you have a very peaceful location that is within walking distance to all the major highlights of Waikiki (approximately 30 minutes to the heart). The views from from the condo are nothing less than spectacular - be it watching the ocean change colors from hour to hour, surfers, sailboats, seals or the beautiful sunsets. One almost wants to stay in the condo and stare at the ocean instead of doing what needs to be done. The owner was always available, accommodating, gracious and easy to work with. The condo has everything one may possibly need and when we return to Hawaii, we hope to be able to stay here again. Aloha.
PS. The parking is a bonus and a necessity if you have a car.
Bingo!
The area below Diamond Head has always spoken to me, close to the ocean and beautiful Kapiolani Park. Close enough to activity and yet a world away. The grandfathered buildings of the fifties and sixties have always intrigued me, and quite frankly, for me, this apartment is the best of the best, on the very quiet, final stretch of Kalakaua Ave. Even cab drivers said you are living on the best street in Honolulu. More than an apartment, this is truly a home that has been lived in. That means that you too can live and unwind here. The furniture is comfortable, the art is appealing, the kitchen is more than well equipped, washer and dryer, the desk has a stapler...small things that one wants during an extended stay are everywhere. And the gorgeous view: dead on for sunset, views of surfers and outrigger canoes. The apartment has the most beautiful light in every room, not always the case in this neighborhood. Depending upon the time of year, be aware, this is old school Hawaii. Instead of air conditioning, you use the mixture of windows on the lanai and ceiling fans to stay cool.The neighbors are friendly and helpful, and this unit really does have parking for 3 smaller cars, unbelievably convenient when having friends over for dinner. I wanted for nothing when staying here. The owner is the most gracious person, and in ways both small and large made it very clear that this was just not a vacation rental, that this was MY home while I lived there. I have never met her, but I consider her a friend, a friend who understands the joy in manifesting the aloha spirit. I am already plotting my return.
Excellent place, amazing views, wonderful owner
I stayed here as I am fortunate to be a family friend. This is an amazing place. Breathtaking views. Very comfortable. Quiet. Many creature comforts. A lot of security. Great location and good parking. I have stayed in many places on Oahu and this is my favorite. Owner is one of the nicest and most accommodating person you will deal with. Will return.
Living the Good Life
The best condo location in Hawaii! It is close to Waikiki yet tucked away in a quiet and historic neighbourhood beneath Diamond Head. You can easily walk to Waikiki beach, the aquarium and the zoo. If you have a car it is easy to head along the ocean highway to the other side of Oahu to Kailua and beyond. For lazier days you can enjoy fantastic views of Diamond Head, Kapiolahi Park, downtown, and of the ocean. Everyday you can sit in the living room and watch whales, sail boats, and surfers. While at night you can fall asleep to the sound of the waves. If we moved to Hawaii this is where we'd like to live. Loved the building, the condo, and the neighbours are very friendly. It has become a home away from home.
View is amazing!!!
We loved our stay at Danno's. Very comfortable and lots of space and sitting looking at the ocean is so therapeutic. We saw whales, and surfers and sailboats and cruise ships. It is like a parade going on all day long. The neighborhood is very quiet and parking is very convenient if you rent a car. We ate at the condo most nights and the kitchen has everything you can imagine and a huge dining room table which was perfect for our family. Anyone would love their stay at Danno's.
I have never seen Heaven but Danno's Hawaii Five O Condo is a preview!
Home away from home is an understatement. We have stayed in over 30 different properties over the 20 years we have visited the beautiful Hawaiian Islands. But this warm, loving and beautiful home has stolen our hearts. I journaled each morning as I gazed at the beautiful white-capped waves of the ocean. The sound was melodic and so peaceful. We loved the roof top where we walked each day to experience the breathtaking views of Diamond Head up close and personal, downtown Waikiki, and the green belt over the pristine neighborhoods. The condo (Heaven on Earth) was equally amazing. Very quite and private. As a gourmet cook, I was amazed at all the kitchen tools and amenities. The layout is so smart as it provides a generous space for gatherings or quiet time. It is spacious and the decor is so elegant. The location is perfect with many activities in walking distance. The owner is so warm and delight to work with. I am so thankful to have found this beautiful home away from home.
