About this property

Our Penthouse over the Pacific - A true gem that sleeps 4 is lovingly cared for.

Legally permitted vacation rental - 2947 Kalakaua Ave #PH01

** For your health and safety, we utilize additional Sterilization procedures between reservations.

When it comes to the perfect place to call home for your vacation in Hawaii, our 2 bedroom penthouse will hopefully be the one you long for year after year. With 240 views of the Ocean and the beautiful Diamond Head crater behind us, there really is no better spot.
Floor to ceiling full sliding doors in the living area ensure your gatherings enjoy truly the best views. Whether that be the surfers, the paddlers from the Outrigger club (next door) or the evening sailboat flotilla that coasts ahead of you as you sip a Mai Tai at sunset.

The penthouse itself has two bedrooms plus modern bathroom and well equipped kitchen. Please note you walk through one bedroom to get to the second.

Our suite is entirely yours for the duration of your stay with it's full length private lanai (that has ample seating for eight) included, should you wish to have friends over to share your luxurious vacation views.

The suite sits atop the Diamond Head Beach Hotel & Residences and is far from the madding crowd that bustles through Waikiki, yet still only a leisurely 15 min walk along the ocean front should you seek a wilder nightlife or to enjoy the many top notch restaurants Waikiki has to offer.

Our suite offers complimentary high-speed WiFi, HD TV and cable. We have a front desk person in the lobby to assist with the printing of boarding passes, local tips on food places and hikes for all energy levels.

The hotel communal gardens below us offer additional space to relax whilst gaining a tan listen to the ocean that meets our property. Maybe you'll take a snorkel along the reef to view the fascinating marine life, the choice is yours?

Perfect Location in Wiakiki
This is a beautiful condo in the perfect location. It is a quick walk down the beach to get to the excitment of Wiakiki, but far enough out that you can still drive easily to other parts of the island for exploration. If you like to run there is a great run, about 6 km, around Diamond Head. The condo is great, the lanai has a spectacular view out over the water where you can nearly always see surfer and the canoe from the club a couple of building down the beach. The only funny thing is that the entrance to the second bedroom if from the first rather than off the hallway. That said, I would still book this condo when back on Oahu. As a matter of fact I tried, but it was already rented for my dates.

Sunrise over Diamond Head
Indeed a true gem - great position away from the bustle of Waikiki central but still easy 20 minute walk away, with panoramic breathtaking views around you. Folding doors opened , extension table opened - perfect spot for breakfast. Lanai in the afternoon - for a kip , catch the sea breeze, spotting for whales - see them most days heading east. Great snorkelling below, with mask and flippers (including boogie boards x2 and a surfboard) provided. Saw turtles but missed the oppurtunity to swim with them. No beach access however. Slightly rocky. Safe ways ( and Leonard's Malasadas!) walking distance away - don't really need Waikiki. Comfy beds, city views from bedroom, heaps of cupboard space. Pillows could be better though... Kitchen well equipped. Cooling works well but didn't need it. We'll be back in a heartbeat! Thanks for your help, Mark (great to deal with)! Mahalo!

50th & 30th anniversaries celebrations
Two couples celebrating anniversaries using this Vrbo property as their base. After reviewing other options up & down Waikiki beach for rental, selected this site as the Best. And it was. Convenient, spacious, functional kitchen & with on-site parking. We couldn't have been happier. Thanks!
