Beautiful views, best beach!
We loved being on the edge of Waikiki, with the views of ocean, zoo, and Dimond Head. The protected calm beach next to the pier was perfect for us, and the beach chairs saved us each the cost of renting for $10 per hour! We also enjoyed the 10th floor patio and meeting some of the year round residents.

Great Location, Frustrating Experience
The location was the best part of this booking; the suite is as described, and close to the beach. However, the quality of the cleaning when we arrived was not great, and there were cockroaches in the kitchen, which we didn’t discover until part-way through our stay; the unit needed pest control and a thorough deep-cleaning. Our biggest issue was that the fridge/freezer didn’t work properly, despite the management company promising in advance that this unit would have a freezer; we noted on arrival (at midnight) that there was a second bar fridge in the unit, and that the normal sized fridge/freezer was not operating properly. We notified Marbella Lane promptly the next morning, and they pretended that it was a new problem, wanting photos, asking for a site visit, etc. The local staffer did appear, and admitted that this was a known issue; thus began a saga of dozens of emails back and forth with Marbella Lane, trying to get the issue resolved. I depend on medication that must be kept at a particular temperature, and on ice packs for pain management. They promised they were “on it.” Their messages were polite, and it seemed like the local staffer genuinely tried to help, but the new fridge/freezer still wasn’t delivered for six days, and that severely affected my ability to enjoy the vacation. They also had many odd “rules”, and threatened extra fees for any wear and tear, make-up on towels, etc. Bottom line: we’ll choose a different suite next time.

Location!
The best location of Waikiki. This unit has no double pane windows so you hear street noise and the bar tel 1:30 am. A real nightmare. Motorcycles are all the time… unit was adequate.

Beautiful View with Shortcomings
Beautiful view room in a great location with two fast elevators and a courteous staff who want to be helpful, however: 1) Our refrigerator didn’t work; so, two curdled containers of cream later, Marbella finally brought us a working fridge. 2) The air conditioner was too close to the bed and blasted our heads with cold, making it impossible to sleep. We solved this problem by placing the two provided fans at the base of the bed. 3) The hot water was intermittent. 4) And, yes, my husband killed four cockroaches…just small ones though. 5) Noisy street outside; the white noise from the fans helped to subdue it. 6) Dirty windows needed to be cleaned!
