About this property
*NEW* Diamond Head Cottage Near Waikiki, 30-Night Minimum
Summary:
For a month in Honolulu, the luxury is being able to walk out for a beach morning without turning it into an expedition. This two-bedroom, one-bath garden cottage sleeps four and has a 30-night minimum, with Waikiki Beach, the Honolulu Zoo, Waikiki Aquarium, and Kapiolani Park all within walking distance. Diamond Head is visible from the front yard, and a Playground is close enough to make an ordinary afternoon easier with kids. Inside, air conditioning in each bedroom only, a kitchen, laundry, and a private outdoor area support a stay that feels more lived-in than a hotel run. Spend a Saturday at KCC Farmers' Market, then come back to cook or take an easy evening walk toward the water. This is for a small family, friends, or remote-working couple who want a genuine Honolulu neighborhood base for a longer stay.
The Space:
Vintage Hawaiian decor, teak furnishings, and bright color give this two-bedroom cottage a personal sense of place. The one-bath layout sleeps four and includes air conditioning in each bedroom only, a kitchen, washer and dryer, and a private entrance. A patio or balcony and garden setting offer room to step outside between work calls, beach plans, or a relaxed meal at home. Diamond Head views from the front yard are a daily Honolulu reminder.
Guest Access:
This charming Honolulu cottage offers a private entrance, patio, and peaceful garden setting with views of Diamond Head. Guests have private use of the cottage, garden, patio, and kitchen, with select cottages also offering air conditioning in each bedroom only and a washer and dryer. Conveniently located near Waikiki Beach, Kapiolani Park, and the ocean, it’s a relaxing home base for exploring Honolulu.
The Neighborhood:
This part of Honolulu puts the active side of Waikiki within walking distance while still giving a longer stay a residential feel. Waikiki Beach is about a 15-minute walk, and Kapiolani Park, the Honolulu Zoo, Waikiki Aquarium, and a Playground are close by. Diamond Head makes a good early outing, while the KCC Farmers' Market is a useful weekend stop for local food. Downtown Honolulu is only minutes away by car, so practical errands and city days stay within reach.
Getting Around:
Daniel K. Inouye International Airport is about 20 to 30 minutes away depending on traffic. A rental car is optional here, since Waikiki and much of Honolulu are very walkable, with rideshare and the bus system covering the rest. Beaches, shopping, and dining are often just steps or a short stroll away. Parking is typically available through hotels or paid lots rather than free street parking.
Other Things to Note:
• A minimum of 30+ night stay is required by local ordinances.
• Both bedrooms have window A/C units / NO ac in the living room
• Please be respectful for the guests in the back cottage
• All guests shall abide by Heavenly's good neighbor policy and shall not engage in illegal activity.

This was a very cute place to stay... We would stay here again. Perfectly located for a nice walk to the beach, downtown Waikiki, as well as diamond head. Only downside was there was a lot of road noise as well as the rooster's enjoying themselves at 3:30am.

Had a fab time wit our little family. Couldn’t have asked for a cuter place. The location is amazing, all the benefits of Waikiki but experience it in a little Hawaiian heritage house!
Stayed here for marathon weekend. Perfectly placed on the edge of Kapiolani park yet close to the beach and the tourist crush of Waikiki. Comfortable, clean, homey.

There is something essential to any vacation and that is a safe accommodation that has a unique quality. We found that in this quirky and charming cottage within walking distance from the beach, Diamond head and the Waikiki stroll. Our stay was easy and laid back.
This cottage was perfect for our time in Honolulu. Easy to walk to San Souci beach, zoo, shell, aquarium and Hau Tree Lanai.
We had some issues in the beginning that were resolved and communication with the local manager and Turnkey was prompt and responsive.
The house is vintage and we really loved the Hawaiiana decor and attention to detail. I hope to stay again soon. Thanks for the Starbucks gift card and please consider including a working coffee maker in the home for future visits!!

Amazing home and location
Our stay at this home was amazing. There is plenty of parking in the drive way in case it's needed. Each room has it's own AC unit and the kitchen has all the appliances, and silverware needed. The property had all the amenities listed, towels, sheets, washer and dryer, etc. The property has been recently upgraded and was very clean and tidy.
Short walk to Waikiki beach and shops and quiet neighborhood. I'd recommend this place to any family wanting to stay near Waikiki and also be in a safe quiet location.

Reviewer Comments:
Stayed here for a long weekend in December. It was a much better option than staying at any of the tiresome Waikiki resorts, yet it's close enough to Wade into the tourist fray if you wish. Clean, comfortable and reasonably quiet, we were able to get quickly to the event in Kapiolani park yet go home to make simple meals in the nicely equipped kitchen. There also are some good eats within a short walk.

Cute and conveniently located home
This home was perfect for our stay, and the rooms feel bigger than what you see online. It’s newly updated and feels that way, with a/c units in both the bedrooms (this was not common in my experience renting in Hawaii!) there were beach towels for our use which was a nice touch, what we appreciated most of all was the location which was incredible - walking distance to the zoo, Waikiki beach, and the stores and shops on Monsarrat Ave (check out the adorable shaved ice stand). The owner, Juan, lives in the unit behind the house and is super friendly with great food recommendations if you need them. Turnkey is also super available if you have questions. We would rent here again when in Oahu.

Flawless, very convenient location, enjoyable!
The property turned out to be better than what it looks on the pictures. Very spacious, meticulously clean. All the amenities are well maintained. The key thing about this property is its location. Whether you are planning to explore Waikiki or drive around the island, it is placed in a prime spot. For any of my friends and relatives traveling to Oahu, I would definitely recommend this property. Especially, when you are renting a car. Escape the crazy valet charges and resort fees of staying at any of the leading hotels in Oahu. Instead, drive around, go to all different beaches, do the hikes or the excursions. Oh, and you can look at Diamond head from the front porch too.

Don’t expect much
I rented this property out for 39 days. Basically there isn’t a whole lot of you should expect here. It’s a very small place that is overpriced. Location is nice to Waikiki but next to a park that has a lot of homeless individuals on drugs. Customer service would receive 0 stars if available.
OUR DREAM COME TRUE ,!3 GLORIOUS MONTHS
A HOME FULL OF HAWAIIANA !AND ALOHA !
ON EVERY CORNER 1940 ,s50 s memorabilia AND GLORIOUS DIAMOND HEAD ,NEXT TO GARDENS PARKS AND A NICE STROLL TO THE BEACH THIS HOME HAS ALL YOU NEED,PEACE AND

WE MET THE OWNER JUAN ,!WE SIMPLY Will NOT FORGET HIM SO FULL OF KINDNESS AND CLASS AND GREAT STORIES ,
THIS PLACE IS A GEM ,
SARITA The MANAGER FROM TURNKEY WAS ALSO A TREAT SHE WAS THERE FOR ALL OUR NEEDS ! THIS IS THE REAL HAWAII !
Great location and great place that should just be stocked better
This is a beautifully renovated little cottage, really tasteful interior decor. Location is perfect for a walk to cafes and the beach. It’s small but very functional for our little family of four. The porch is lovely to hang out on and the wifi is fast.
It could be perfect but just misses the mark on a few little things. Kitchen is supposed to be ready to use but there was no salt or no cooking oil. Towels need replacing as they are very worn. Shower curtain needs replacing. Only one roll of kitchen paper towels and one box of tissues supplied for our 3 week stay.
These are all minor negative things but they are the kind of thing that other short term rentals get right.
We will happily stay here again, hopefully they can make those small improvements.

Hi Roger,
We appreciate you taking the time to leave this review. Please know that we stock each home with what is called a "starter supply" of basic items. It is not designed to be an unlimited supply but, rather, to get a typical reservation through a weekend or get folks started so that they can enjoy their arrival days, take inventory, and pick up whatever else is needed to get them through their trip. Prior to each stay, we stock dish soap, laundry detergent, a roll of paper towels, toilet paper, a dish brush to wash dishes, a few trash bags, dishwasher detergent, bar soap, and the standard bathroom amenities you might find in a hotel. Additionally, we will ensure our local Operations Team changes out the shower curtain. Thanks again for your feedback! -The TurnKey Team
If you enjoy the city life this is a great place to stay. Within walking of great park and shops. This cute property was furnished with vintage items (even some of the dishes). We really enjoy antiques so we loved the interior.
The overgrowth of the vegetation in the driveway makes it a real challenge to park and get in and out of the car.
I am elderly and the older bathtub was a scary endevor for me. No grab bars and the sides of the tub sloped so that there was very little flat footing on the bottom of tub. If you have any balance issues or slight handicap, this would not be a good place to stay. We enjoyed sitting on the porch and watching the world "go by". It is a very busy road and close to a fire station. If you have hearing aids or hearing issues this place would be tough to enjoy, but for most of our party it did not bother them. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Reviewer Comments:
The house is great, but when you arrive to discover that the shower has no handle and that you have to turn it on and off with a screwdriver and that you cannot really adjust the temperature with said screwdriver you can imagine my disappointment. Turnkey thought I was being ridiculous for expecting a working shower. They would not give me a response about a refund of my money until the next day because, "I'm not authorized to make that decision." And apparently no one was authorized to make that decision until the following day. I cannot believe that any of that wasn't intentional because at that point they were only going to give us half our money back. We arrived on a Tuesday. The shower was not fixed until Friday. We left Sunday morning. Turnkey is awful!
