Hotel Details

Location

Situated directly on Waikiki Beach, this apartment offers effortless beach access and a prime spot in the top-rated area of Honolulu.
Fort DeRussy Beach is just a 2-minute walk away, and Fort DeRussy Park is 300 metres from the door. Several key attractions are within a 3-minute walk, including the US Army Museum of Hawaii and the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center. For dining, a cluster of restaurants such as Roy's Waikiki Beach, Denny's, House Without a Key, and Nobu Honolulu are all 0.5 km away. Hale Koa Luau is less than 1 km from the property. Honolulu International Airport is 15 km away - no shuttle is available, so a taxi or rideshare is recommended for airport transfers. The area is highly walkable, with easy access to shops and the beach.

Accommodation

This one-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment features a spacious living room, air conditioning, and a private balcony with outstanding ocean views.
The unit has one bed and a private bathroom, complemented by a spacious living area that enhances comfort. The balcony offers direct ocean and sunset views, making it a focal point of the stay. Free in-room Wi-Fi is included. The apartment is on the smaller side, but the layout and balcony make it practical for couples or solo travelers who prioritize location and views over interior size. Noise is minimal due to the quiet local area. The building is not wheelchair accessible, and the bathroom is too tight for wheelchair use.

Dining

No on-site restaurant or complimentary breakfast is available, but a variety of dining options are within a short walk.
The property does not have a restaurant or provide breakfast, but the surrounding area offers numerous choices within 0.5 km, including Roy's Waikiki Beach, Denny's, House Without a Key, Yard House, Nobu Honolulu, and La Mer. For lighter fare or snacks, the Honolulu Cookie Company and Island Deli are also nearby. There are no meal plans or restaurant facilities on-site, so visitors should plan meals at one of these neighboring venues.

Wellness and Leisure

The primary leisure feature is direct beach access with kayaking and canoeing opportunities, as there are no pool or spa facilities.
This apartment offers direct steps onto the beach, allowing for easy swimming, sunbathing, and sunset viewing. Kayaking and canoeing are available in the surrounding area. The property has no swimming pool, spa, or wellness centre, so all water-based recreation relies on the beach. Beach chairs and umbrellas can be rented from local shops.

Facilities and Services

Free in-room Wi-Fi, air conditioning, and invoice provision are included; parking and late check-in are available for a fee.
Internet access is free of charge in the rooms. Parking is available nearby for $30 per day, but a reservation is required and the hotel's own lot is often full - a nearby open parking pass for $25/day is also available, requiring a 2-day minimum booking. Check-in is from 15:00 to 17:30; a $50 fee applies for arrivals after 17:30, though self-check-in is possible. Check-out is at 11:00. Accepted payment methods include American Express, Visa, Discover, and MasterCard. Pets and smoking are not allowed. The staff is responsive and can assist with beach equipment rental inquiries.
