• Reviewer: Eve

  Comments: Amazing location and gorgeous view!!! The place itself was newly renovated and a perfect beach vibe atmosphere and decor...absolutely perfect place in Waikiki!

• Reviewer: Miao

  Comments: Chris was an awesome host and his studio was exactly like the pictures. It was clean and has all the things you would need such as a refrigerator, beach towels, and beach mats. He even provided more than just the basics, such as snacks, drinks, coffee, and even sunscreen which made our stay that much nicer. He was very responsive to answering any questions and making sure our stay was comfortable. I would recommend staying here as the location is pretty central too.

• Reviewer: Greg

  Comments: I had a long layover in Honolulu and wanted to stay somewhere for by brief stay in Waikiki. This small studio apartment was the perfect choice, it was comfortable, and convenient. The host Chris actually spotted me coming in and helped me get in early. The place was sparkling clean and walkable to good restaurants and the beach. The value is excellent for this location compared to other hotels and rentals. Traveler tip- the cheeseburger, fries, and beer selection at the brewery next door was pretty good and the open air setting was a great place to chill.

• Reviewer: Rebecca

  Comments: Where to start? Chris goes ABOVE AND BEYOND to make your stay amazing. The studio is by far the CUTEST Airbnb I've stayed in. The interior is so thoughtfully put together and designed. It's beautiful and welcoming and spotlessly clean. Chris generously provided snacks and refreshments, which was extremely generous. Communicatiom was superb throughout - Chris is such a great guy and you can tell he tries to make your stay as comfortable and hassle-free as possible. At the very end of our stay, we were fortunate to meet him because my boyfriend had forgotten some clothes at the apartment and Chris reached out to us to return them. Throughout our stay on Hawaii (travelling around), we stayed at 4 different Airbnbs and this was by far our favorite. Stay here - you won't regret it! I'm already looking forward to coming back and would love to stay here again!

• Reviewer: Joleen

  Comments: Not only is the studio absolutely amazing, the hosts are so thoughtful and made the entire vacation much more memorable! Location was convenient and made getting around that much easier. The studio itself was well-kept with a great view and everything seemed brand new. Chris and Julie are the best hosts we’ve had while using Air BnB. A million thank you’s to you both. This listing is highly recommended and we can’t wait to visit again! -Joleen & Raynal

  Comments: When we arrived in Waikiki, we had the pleasure of meeting Chris and his beautiful family at the condo. They were very helpful and accommodating with telling us where to park during our stay. Also, they provided all essentials needed at their condo plus more. When my fiance and I walked into the condo, we noticed that Chris made a special welcoming letter addressed specifically to us. Chris even went above and beyond by providing us with snacks for our stay. To blow us away even more, the place was very clean, cozy, and romantic as it is in close proximity to the beach and local restaurants on Kalakaua Ave. Thanks again Chris for allowing us to stay at your place. We will definitely book again in the future when we go back to Oahu.

• Reviewer: Virginia

  Comments: I cannot say enough good things about Chris’ hospitality and kindness. He was beyond accommodating and helpful. The place was so cute and very very clean. A very nice walk along Ala Moana into Waikiki. Shared the space with one of my friends and wasn’t stepping all over each other or anything like that! Highly recommend.

• Reviewer: Diamond

  Comments: Chris and Julie’s studio was more than perfect. It exceeded all of our expectations. The location was very convenient as it was near the Waikiki strip, the beach, etc. The room had everything we needed and more. So nicely decorated and clean. Snacks were provided, extra items for the beach (sunscreen, towels, beach bag, umbrella, etc.) toiletries too! Chris and Julie went above and beyond to host us and we would most definitely stay here again in the future. Thank you for being such great hosts. Mahalo, Diamond & Aaron :-)

• Reviewer: Amie

  Comments: This place is perfect! The location is great and Chris and his wife have done an excellent job decorating and making a small space very comfortable. While there isn’t any onsite parking there are 3 garage/lots within walking distance. Chris was very responsive and took extra steps to accommodate us throughout our stay. A definite “do-over!”

• Reviewer: Camilla

  Comments: Very tidy and lovely apartment for a couple equipped with everything you need. A good bed and nice bathroom. Chris is a great host and there when you need him. The neighborhood is very conveniently located. Highly recommended

  Comments: We live on Maui. Just wanted a fun relaxing long weekend on Oahu. We found Chris and Julie's studio PERFECT! We arrived at the Honolulu Airport. We decided to save money by taking the city bus. Walked a short distance to the bus stop on the upper level. Less than a 10 minuet wait. For bus 19 (20, 42). If you are not in a hurry, the all day pass for $5.50 is the way to go (unlimited use for the day). The bus drop us off at Kalia Road which is less then a 2 minute walk to the Inn on the Park. We found Inn on the Park location perfect for our needs. Located across from Fort DeRussy Park and the Waikiki Hilton. An easy walk to almost every part of Waikiki. An ABC Store less tan a 1/2 block away. Bus stops less then 2 minute walk away. A Cheeseburger Waikiki and Waikiki Brewing Company to the left as you exit the building. To the right 200 yards an IHOP. Ala Moana shopping center 3 bus stops away. Your checking in the lobby at the security office. Found it to be very fast, helpful and friendly. The studio is on the 6th floor. Just right of the elevators. No long walk down arrow dark hallows to find your room. Once, the doors of the unit close behind you. You will never hear the elevator again. The lobby and 5th floor have free WiFi. But, you will need a passcode. My husband and I found Chris' unit to be ideal for your needs. The unit was clean, fresh decor, A/C was already running and the room cool (nice)! Chris and Julie had a nicely filled mini refrigerator with cold water, soda, beer and even a bottle of wine. They had beach towels and even a beach bag for our use. There is a large flat screen TV with over a 100 channels (which we had no use for. We can watch TV when we are home), Microwave, coffee pod machine. The bathroom has both bath and shower in one. The bathroom was very clean. No mold anywhere (which is hard for Hawaii). The unit is not overly large. We wanted to be able to see all of our belongings at a glance. Certainly, we had no plans to entertain there. The is a very nice relaxing view overlooking Fort DeRussy Park. We wanted a place to stay that was safe, clean, centerly located t Waikiki,Ala Moana Shopping Center, the bus system we found it all here. Chris and Julie were perfect. Every question was answered quickly and we never heard the word "NO". This is a great place to stay. Thank you once again Chris and Julie you two are Amazing!!!!

  Comments: The location of this Airbnb was amazing—one block from Waikiki Veach! Clean and updated condo, perfect for two people max.

• Reviewer: Anca

  Comments: Outstanding experience! Perfect location, super nice studio, everything you need inside (towels, sunscreen, beach towels, toaster, coffee machine...) PLUS an extra care and attention from the amazing hosts!

• Reviewer: Kent

  Comments: Chris’s place is outstanding! Great location, easy check-in & out. Chris had thought of many nice touches, amenities, and starter beverages & snacks awaiting us upon our arrival. Apprehensive about giving a glowing review, because I fear it will not be available when we want to come back. Would totally stay here again. (One lesson learned, don’t use the bike racks for an extended period. They are for permanent residents only, and require a permit.)

• Reviewer: Viri

  Comments: My husband and I staid at Chris’ studio for a week during our stay in Honolulu and we would just like to say that everything about the studio was perfect! The location was within walking distance to major hot spots and the interior was fresh and relaxing. We were pleasantly surprised at how easy the check in process was and at how much Chris had provided for our stay. We were greeted with some yummy snacks and refreshments along with some personalized welcoming notes which made us feel right at home. Additionally, Chris was very responsive from beginning to end. We had some questions during our stay and his quick response was extremely helpful. If we’re ever back in Oahu we will definitely look for this place. Thanks for the wonderful experience Chris!

  Comments: Chris’s place was great. Clean and simple with everything you need, and in a great location. Chris was very responsive throughout our stay and was able to accommodate our request to check out a little late. Thank you, Chris!

• Reviewer: Zach

  Comments: Perfect location, bear so many shops, restaurants, and the beach! The place itself is kind of a don't judge a book by its cover situation, by that I mean the apartment building itself is pretty out dated and a little dirty, but once you walk into the apartment everything changes! It's obvious the place is very newly renovated and had everything you could possibly need. Chris provided towels, sun block, and even beach mats and bags to make walking to the beach a breeze! He kept checking in with us the whole time and was super accommodating. 100% would book again.

• Reviewer: Yutong

  Comments: This space is super nice! You get whatever you want, bed, full bath, microwave and a small fridge with coca. I love it! Chris is super nice man and he even prepare gift for our wedding after we tell him we are here for honeymoon. I love this! I will definitely book here the next time.

• Reviewer: Bryan

  Comments: Chris was a super thoughtful and considerate host, providing everything I could possibly need in the apartment i.e. iron, hairdrier, beach bag, beach towel and mats, stocked fridge etc. Great location and great value. Probably the best airbnb experience I've had so far. I would rent here again and so should you!

The studio itself is clean, decorated nicely, and filled with everything you need (e.g., beach towels, plenty of pillows). Chris also thoughtfully provides some drinks and snacks.

We would definitely stay here again!

• Reviewer: Liam

  Comments: A great stay. The room is small but with so much do to around it was no bother. I had an overnight stay before an international flight and really enjoyed it. Chris is a great host and I really enjoyed the stay and his recommendations for places to check out nearby. Great comunication and he even notified to let me know I could check in a few hours earlier. The water, drinks and snacks provided in the room were a nice special touch.

• Reviewer: Brad

  Comments: Great spot. Book it.

• Reviewer: Joseph

  Comments: Great place to stay. Chris was very helpful! Would definitely recommend.

• Reviewer: Richard

  Comments: We had a wonderful stay at Chris and Julie's apartment. Chris and Julie had already thought of everything we needed to enjoy our time in Hawaii, and their thoughtful touches were evident throughout the entire apartment - from the coffee machine, minibar, beach towels, to umbrellas for each person in case of rain. The 24hr security in the complex made it easy for us to check in and out, and the location of the apartment was so convenient for everything Waikiki had to offer. Don't think twice, stay here when you are in Ohau :)

• Reviewer: Bobbi Lynn

  Comments: Highly recommend this apartment. It is clean, close to everything and Chris couldn't have been better to work with!

• Reviewer: Rena

  Comments: This place is really awesome about all aspects, especially in hospitality. I felt really warm welcoming through the services. The location is also really great. This place is located in between Alamoana shopping center (the largest shopping mall) and downtown waikiki. Beach and Lagoon (in Hilton Hawaiian Village, but for public) is close by. Food pantry (grocery) is also about 7 min walking away. There is no kitchen so it might not be ideal place if you stay is long and you want to cook. But there are a microwave, fridge, and coffee machine. I really had great time in this place.

• Reviewer: Tom

  Comments: This place is FANTASTIC. The hospitality shown by Chris was second to none, the finer details and small touches from the welcome note, to the wonderful messages he gave when checking in. If I was to ever go back to Waikiki I would stay here. The location is good, about a 10 minute easy stroll to all the main Waikiki beach and shops. About the same to Ala Moana, and the place itself looks even better than the pictures. Thanks again Chris, you were a superstar!

• Reviewer: Stephanie

  Comments: If it were possible to give Chris and Julie more than 5 stars, we would do it! Excellent location, amenities, space and extra touches. We couldn’t have asked for more! Thank you for making us feel welcome in Honolulu!!!

• Reviewer: Andrew

  Comments: I’d go as far as to say, Chris has been the best Airbnb host we’ve ever had. I had a few challenges along the way but Chris was always there to help no matter the time of the day, and that makes a world of difference. As with the condo itself, if you’re looking for a homey spot nestled within a great location in Waikiki, look no further. Chris stocks the pantry with snacks, drinks and everything you need for the beach which is such a great touch. Mahalo!

• Reviewer: Charles

  Comments: Chris was a great host and very accommodating to us. We had a couple of questions and Chris was more than happy to help out and was really quick in his response. The room apt was very clean and stylish. The location is great and 5 min walk to Waikiki Beach. Would definitely recommend his place to anyone looking for a great and clean location.

• Reviewer: Sarah

  Comments: Great location, walk to Waikiki Beach. Restaurants and grocery store nearby. The apartment is cute and had thoughtful amenities including beach gear. There is no kitchen but there is a fridge and microwave. There is a little bit of street noise but that’s because the location is good. Check in was super easy. All in all, a wonderful stay in Waikiki.

• Reviewer: Sam

  Comments: Great spot. Right in the center of ask the stuff I wanted to do! Chris was a great host and was available to answer any questions I had.

• Reviewer: Natalie

  Comments: This is a fantastically located apartment near the convention center and the sights of Waikiki. Chris was extremely accommodating and easy to get in touch with. I loved the thoughtful touches in the apartment, like beach mats, sunblock, and beer in the fridge. The place is sparkling clean, and the building is very secure. One of the best Air Bnb's I've stayed in!

• Reviewer: Bobby

  Comments: Clean spot with a nice view of a park. Walking distance to the beach. Great communication and easy check-in and out.

• Reviewer: Tiffany

  Comments: Chris and Julie place is great! It was everything I expected from the pictures I seen and a bit more. The view from their place is so beautiful. Chris was quick to respond my call when I was lost looking for the Airbnb because it was hard for me to spot at night when I arrived to Waikiki. I can see they put a lot of their personal thoughts on this place. They have everything what a hotel would provide for you and more like beach towel and mat , umbrellas, coffee, drinks, snacks, Sun screens, cleansing supplies, binder with recommendation of things to do, tv, etc. Overall, this place was great and I would recommend this place for first timer visitor in Hawaii like my boyfriend. He enjoyed this place a lot after a long day of exploring the city he can come back, relax , and enjoy his night.
