Waikiki holiday condo

The two selling points of this Condo are the views and the size. On Friday's the Hilton Hawiian Village has a fireworks display that can be seen perfectly from the Master Bedroom Balcony. The unit has two bedrooms and two baths that gave alot of privacy. For the price paid and the location of the unit to the beach it was an excellent deal. There are views of the ocean fron both balconies as if faces East and West you can see the sunrise and sunset. Each bedroom and the living room has an air conditioner which works well.

This unit is not good for the handicapped or people who have difficulty doing stairs as you have to climb a flight of stairs to get to the Condo. Unit is very basic, 1 TV in the living room with cable (no movie channels but you can get movies in the lobby) you can get wired internet for a very reasonable price. You are 1 floor above the pool and can hear the children through the bathroom window but if you close the bathroom door the sound is almost muted.

You have a very basic kitchen that has not been upgraded since the place was built. The refrigerator, electric stovetop and the small convection oven work well, I am not sure if the range works but it is missing the knob that regulates the temperature. There are dishes and such in the unit but we bought our own paper plates and cups and such for convienence.

The Imperial is seconds from many eating establishments and there is an ABC store connected to the Imperial. You should check the expiration date on the food that they sell as some of the items were 2 months beyond the recommended selling date. Some of the items bought there that did not have dates were stale. There is an ABC on almost every corner so you will do better if you walk a minute or two to find another one.

Communication with the owner was great and it was a smooth transaction, no issues at all anytime during the stay with the front desk or any of the other employees.

If you need a two bedroom place that is close to the beach and you do not need a 4 star resort or room service this is the place for you. The price and location is great as compared to other similar units in Waikiki.
