As Marine Surf apartments are individually owned, I will not comment on the individual units. However the building is extremely clean and well maintained. There is a modicum of security however entry is via a huge sliding glass door opened via electronic key. When the door opens as someone enters or leaves, there's enough time and capacity for a busload... More

Great location! Fantastic price! Reservations, check-in, services, etc....all were "better to none" It's like a home away from home. The Condo unit (509) has been renovated. Nice full kitchen with plenty of dishware/pots pans, microwave, etc. Underneath the kitchen sink are plenty of cleaning supplies (nice perk). Nice dining table in the room. Nice lounge area in room with a... More

We booked 2 rooms through VRBO, dealing with two different owners. Both rooms met our needs perfectly. Well appointed, clean and in the heart of Waikiki. Ice chests, sand chairs, and beach towels were available for our use, as well as free Internet access and phone with U.S. long distance. Nice to have a full kitchen, though we found the... More

The room itself is fine for the money - nothing special but has all the essentials and most of all is clean and presentable. The neighhood - that is something quite different. If you have insomnia - this isn't the place for you. You are right downtown and that coupled with the heavy trucks, transit and tour buses not to... More

Firstly, this is not a hotel and has not been one since August 2009. The rooms are privately owned and usually rented out thru a leasing agent. I used "hawaii condo resorts" and have to agree with the previous traveler: stay away from them! They use bait and switch tactics when it comes to actual room location and withheld a... More

It comes with full kitchen near a grocery store to help with the budget. It has a pool big rooms, great views, close to beach and International Market and other shopping. On the bus line, close to restaurants that have meal specials. Laundry on premises, free coffee every day. On the flip side there is no tour desk, but tour... More

I'm an annual traveller to Honolulu and stay from 2 weeks to a month. I booked by phone with Hawaiian Condo Resorts. I was warned that this is not a luxury property as I had stayed at the Royal Gardens in 2007 and found it very comfortable. However, I was not prepared for the dirty bathroom, kitchen (thick grease and... More

The rooms are spacious non-smoking studios with kitchens. While it is not a luxury hotel, we found it very comfortable and clean, with two long double beds which accomodates up to 4, as in our family. The location is great, 1and half short blocks to the beach and the center of the action in Waikiki, walking to all the restaurants... More
