Everything You Need!

Best deal for staying in a condo in Waikiki. Great location. Close to the park area for jogging/strolling. I enjoyed the nearby Diamond Head Drive, a very relaxing and scenic walk or run, away from the tourist crowds. Very short walk to the beach or to all the other Waikiki attractions. The closet Waikiki beach is by a park setting, not a shore area lined with big hotels - Google map to see it. If you have small kids, you'll notice an area on the beach protected from any high surf conditions (sea wall). Just beside that is an area good for boggy-boarding. The condo .... was impressed by all the little things that are supplied to make your stay pleasant and carefree. Don't pack bulky beach towels; they're provided, along with two snorkel masks, boggy board, beach chair and small ice chest. The kitchen has everything you would ever need to prepare meals, though we only had breakfasts there (which we enjoyed while sitting on the balcony, looking at the ocean). A great item included, and an example of all the 'extra' things provided was a detailed map book - saved us a lot of time and gas. The free parking is great; indoor parking is plentiful but tight; recommend a small or medium rental car. The unit manager, Steve, was always available for any assistance, be it by phone or e-mail. Would defintely stay there again; great value. Thanks

We really enjoyed our stay at this condo! The location was excellent and the view from the balcony was incredible. It has a homey feel to it and plenty of utensils and dinnerware for cooking great meals. We even BBQ'd at the pool and jacuzzi area one night. I would definitely recommend staying here and look forward to my next stay here!

We are repeat visitors to Honolulu, and have stayed at this particular unit in the Waikiki Banyan more than once. (In fact, it's at the top of our list when we are searching for availability.) Very spacious one-bedroom apartment, well-appointed, full kitchen for preparing meals, lovely balcony to watch the sunsets. Photos on website are very accurate. Steps from the beach. Unbeatable price which includes parking! Mahalo, and we look forward to our next visit.

My husband and I stayed here for a week while celebrating our anniversary. This condo is comfortable and well maintained. We enjoyed the amenities that a condo gives you very much. Each morning we fixed breakfast and enjoyed the lanai with the ocean views to start our day and beautiful city lights by night.
The Waikiki Banyan is 1 block from the beach, with the view of Diamond Head, 1 block to the zoo, 1 block to the main Waikiki strip and within a comfortable walking distance to the new Outrigger Beach Walk. There are numerous restaurants close by from upscale to local food such as the Rainbow Drive In, a must try for the local food. Cheese Burger in Paradise is so close we waked right by it.......
The Waikiki Banyan also has a very nice recreation floor with a large pool (heated), 2 hot tubs, playground and BBQ area for the family to enjoy.
Over all my husband and I had a very pleasant experience and excellent customer service.
Mahalo for sharing your condo with us!

Very Nice Place!
Submitted: July 1, 2010

My girlfriend and I stayed in this place for a week and it was great.
We've stayed all over Honolulu, from the fancy to the not-so-fancy, and this place just had a lot of the right things to make the stay easy and trouble-free.
The location is just about perfect, a stone's throw from the beach as well as Kapiolani Park and the zoo, not to mention a handful of nice restaurants. It's high up enough that the view is nice, you get a nice chunk of ocean, and the lanai is spacious enough for breakfast, reading, working or what have you.
Lots of nice touches: A pretty full kitchen, appliances great and small, little touches that were thoughtful and practical, even a couple little bodyboards if you feel so inclined. The building is nice, the inhabitants even nicer. You can make friends on the elevator in that joint. Convenience store and coffee house on the ground floor and the prices aren't outrageous. The fact that parking was easy and the price included is very sweet -- most places have hidden fees, this one has hidden bonuses.
Did all my communication with Steve High -- he's a good communicator, and was happy to go over any details or concerns we had. A nice guy and patient to boot.
Just an overall pleasant experience. Would recommend it to anyone and will probably be going there again.
Cheers.
