The place was amazing!! Very clean and had everything we needed. It is very close to the beach!! We walked every day to the beach and it did not take us even 5 minutes to walk there. There are also many restaurants around and great shopping centers so close! It was such nice stay for my family and I we are coming back to this place! Thank you so much

Mahalo for choosing to stay with Captain Cook Resorts and the great review and recommendation! We're so happy you enjoyed your stay and we look forward to welcoming you back in the near future. Mahalo! Captain Cook Resorts
Clean, but very dated. Cabinets falling apart and closet doors that don’t open and shut. Furniture is stained. Property in general needs some maintenance. Good location to the beach, included parking, and lovely view of Diamondhead though! Property price is good, but all the fees associated doubled the price making the property ultimately not worth the price paid.

Reviewer Comments:
This was a last minute rental as we disembarked our cruise ship due to an approaching tropical storm. Place was exactly as advertised. Restaurants and shops a ways away without a car - so we rented one and it made it a lit easier, especially with on-site parking.

This property is a good value. Great location… Just two short blocks to Waikiki Beach. Parking was included and convenient to the unit. There were even beach chairs provided. We love the view. I would suggest that the cabinet doors need attention, and it would’ve been nice to have some starter coffees for those who arrive late in the day. Thanks for a wonderful time!

Beautiful stay with the best view I’ve ever had in my years of annually visiting the islands! Air conditioning helped make it a perfectly comfy stay (alongside provided tower fans), and simple kitchen with comfy seats. Provided parking was extremely helpful, and the system to get in/out was simple. Heated pool wasn’t so warm, but it was super windy so I understand. Lastly, the location: off to the edge of Waikiki but still close enough to walk less than 10 mins for yummy things & the beach - big deal for our little family with a toddler! Would absolutely stay here again!

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Very dated property. Terribly overpriced, at least by 30%. The balcony door lock did not work which was quite dangers as we had children staying with us. There are four elevators but only three worked and poorly. You would often have to wait 15 minutes or longer to get on an elevator. Airconditioning noisy and difficult to control. Would not recommend to anyone to rent this property.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry the condo did not meet your expectations. The lanai door lock concern was especially important, and we have shared it with our maintenance team for follow-up. We also regret the inconvenience caused by the building elevators and air-conditioning. We appreciate you bringing these concerns to our attention.
It was a great place to be with allot going on around you.

Fabulous location and cozy condo: we really enjoyed the location, such a close walk down to the beach and tons to do in surrounding area of Waikiki. The condo was comfortable and had everything we needed and the building had a nice pool / deck area and fitness facility. The parking being included was a big plus as we had a rental car and parking is tough in that area of town. The rooms were a little small and some furnishings are showing signs of wear but we had everything we needed and enjoyed our stay.

Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy
Host was very slow to respond. Issue was resolved long before host returned a replyWhile views were very nice Photos were misleading. Photo angles could lead one to believe that the rooms were larger than they really were. Half bathroom tub was to be desired for.

Great view from the fourteenth floor. Lovely house. Clean. Minimart inside the complex and 5 min walk to abc store was great. 10 min walk to waikiki beach. Beds were very comfortable. Only issue I could think of is the a/c wasnt working well in the bedrooms but it was manageable.
