    Great Place to Stay!

    This was our second time staying here. The first time was last year. I had reservations for Ohana East down the street but they were doing noisy jackhammered renovations (again).I had noted Aqua Aloha Surf before, so we ended up staying here. Everything is great but limited parking. The beds are super thick and comfortable. We stayed in the back so there was no street noise.The front desk folks are really friendly and helpful. The location is convenient to the beach, restaurants, and shopping. We will stay here again!

    First Hawaiian vacation

    My husband and I stayed here for our Hawaiian vacation. We booked through an Air B and B. My husband and I stayed in room 510... a corner room, wonderful views. We loved waking up and watching the sunrise. (We're from Chicago and we are 5 hours ahead of Hawaii, so 5am here is 10am Chicago, we never really adjusted to the time change lol). I read previous reviews about the air conditioning in the building not getting extremely cold, so when ours did the same, it wasn't a deal breaker. Our host provided a fan so it was fine. Our room was in walking distance (3 minute walk) of the Waikīkī market and ABC store which sells alcohol, snacks, souvenirs, etc., across the street from a coffee shop and restaurant. The beach is probably a 5 minute walk. Our hosts were wonderful, if we needed them, they were a phone call or an app message away. A few things our room needed, get the ac checked so it can get the room extremely cold not just cool, bigger garbage can for the kitchen, the one provided is perfect for a bathroom, but 2 water bottles completely filled the garbage can. More toilet paper, 3 rolls for 2 adults for 7 days is not enough same for paper towels. They provided a pot and a skillet, but no tongs or spatula. Couldn't make pancakes. Made spaghetti, but no strainer. We also only had 1 hand towel. We had 2 bath towels and 2 face towels, but only 1 hand towel. These things are not deal breakers, We would definitely stay here again. We had a wonderful trip. It was our first time visiting Hawaii and it won't be our last. Mahalo

    Walkable to main strip and affordable

    Bed is comfortable, but pillows are a little flat. A/C is a wall unit and the room can feel a little warm. However, the privacy of the hotel room (corner room), and quietness from being a couple blocks away from the main hotel/shopping strip was nice.
