I hope you’ll take the time to read this if you’re thinking of going to Waikiki !! The hotel itself is nice enough. I enjoyed the location, steps from the best beaches! The front desk was helpful, easy parking, good food on site, plenty of restaurants and stores close and VERY EASY affordable parking. BUT there was one main thing made this trip truly perfect for my daughter and I - Bill. The host was amazing. Bill is fun, friendly and truly cares about making sure the guest gets the most out of their visit to Hawaii. We got checked in, and once we got settled, Bill sent a text welcoming us, and offering us every option to make our trip the best possible. This man cared far more about my daughter and I having a good time than about renting a property. The toilet flushed kind of slow the third day, I thought it was my fault and I was all nervous to call. Bill responded quickly even though it was late, he joked with me about it. We had another great conversation, he came in the morning, fixed it up, and brought us some rafts! our last day, I had thought check out was Sunday… it was Saturday. And I realized this Friday night and went into a panic! Again, Bill saved the day!! He helped us figure out how to make it to our snorkel boat, make sure our bags were safe, and made sure we were able to get changed and sorted before taking off for our flight. I use Vrbo all the time, but this time I felt like I was renting off a friend or relative. There truly is NO better place to stay!
