Reviewer Comments:
We enjoyed our time in Hawaii, and this was a good unit for our family of 4 (including a 4 year old and 15 month old). We appreciated the convenience of the in-unit washer/dryer, and there were thoughtful amenities (i.e. beach chairs, a play pen, cleaning supplies, and all necessary kitchen items). Great views of Diamond Head, the Ala Wai golf course, and a little ocean view too! The location was near the beach and other popular stores. However, the area seemed sketchy at times. Police were called multiple times to the houses/units to the east of Waikiki Skytower, and there were a lot of homeless individuals in the area. We avoided those areas - sometimes walking out of our way to try to remain in “safer” spots. In addition, we found at least 30 mini cockroaches in the unit during our 30 day stay (They were either already dead or we killed them, so there were at least 30 unique bugs). The management company had the unit treated by a pest control company before our arrival and during our stay, but we continued to see the bugs. Overall, I would probably stay again if I could not find anything else in the same price range. However, the bugs were concerning and thus this unit would not be my first choice when we return to the island.
