My husband and I were excited for our stay after a 7-day cruise, but things went wrong from the start. At the security gate, our name was missing, preventing us from checking in. I tried contacting the host multiple times with no response, and it took the security guard over an hour to receive a message and approval from the host's partner.
Upon our arrival at the condo, there was a strong musty smell, we quickly opened the sliding glass doors, (the ONLY saving grace was the view). We discovered some conditions that may require attention to ensure it meet the standards for comfortable living.
The kitchen was equally troubling; a glass I pulled out was dirty, and we washed what dishes she had first. There were no bowls available—just one saucepan and four glasses and missed match plates. There was nothing there to cook with. The oven door was broken, and the cabinets were disgusting. The kitchen light was out, leaving us with minimal lighting from the sitting area.
My husband went to take a bath the first morning and discovered the bathroom tile was covered in mold, the floors were filthy, and no basic necessities. The bathroom cabinets were dirty and had what appeared to be rodent droppings.
We left the next morning hoping to get our two remaining nights refunded.
This condo has so much potential, but unfortunately, we will never see it. Overall, our experience was incredibly disappointing. ONCE AGAIN THE ONLY SAVING GRACE WAS THE VIEW, BUT YOU CAN GET THAT ANYWHERE!

I am reviewing my charges and believe I was overcharged for my stay.

Briefly, things were ok except the face towels were clean, but old and stained. One of the lamps (only source of lighting) did not work properly. Bathtub, wall grout and showerhead need cleani
a real cleaning

First: the view from the balcony is just what the pictures show, and the owner responded very quickly to phone calls and texts. The price was much lower than other places we considered, and that seemed to be a good thing.
However there seems to be a kind of carelessness about the owner's approach to the property and the rental. The gate attendant did not have the necessary notice that we were coming (other former renters have reported similar challenges). The door knob fell off in my hand (we got into the room about 40 minutes later because of Bill, an incredibly helpful person that the host called) and we walked into a space that was cluttered, grimy and haphazard. Broken oven door, inadequate and unwashed kitchen items, papers and detritus bulging out of every drawer and closet, miserable mattress, dirty bathroom. The on site laundry facilities needed a card which was not provided (Bill graciously gave us one to use). That view was gorgeous! But the area all around has an air of exhaustion and poverty. Not many restaurants or coffee places. Many tents and shanties. Warnings not to leave anything in a locked car if you stop at a beach area. Beach areas full of trash.
It became clear to us very quickly that got what we paid for. I would not choose this place again.

It’s nice to have a “cheaper” option on the island, but I’d pay a bit more and stay elsewhere.
Pros: grounds are lovely and staff are kind, amazing view, quiet, very few people at the pool, this side of the island is less overrun by people and the beaches are really nice.
Cons: dirty and run down condo, lots of cockroaches and ants in condo, bad lighting and broken lamps, kitchen isn’t stocked or ready for cooking (and you wouldn’t want to store food there anyways because of all the cockroaches in the fridge and freezer), dishes in cupboard were dirty, thick layer of dust on decor, host doesn’t communicate with the condo management ahead of time and so you have to wait at security for them to get ahold of the owner before you can enter, bright outdoor walkway lights stay on all night so the condo never really gets dark, fridge clicks and makes noises all night (maybe the cockroaches in the fridge fan/cooling area??).

Driving to this VRBO we realized it is in a very rough part of the island. Once we got to the condo and walked in it had a musty smell. The handle on oven is broke, hair in the sheets, the mattress is very thin with just a foam topper on the top but we didn’t stay long enough to even sleep because this place is infested with roaches. It was absolutely disgusting! Roaches all in the refrigerator, cabinets,table, bathroom! No soap anywhere to wash your hands. We lasted 20 minutes and just packed up and booked a hotel in Waikiki. The host Vanessa could care less. She didn’t even tell security about our reservation so we had to call her when we got there and she was clearly very unorganized. Out of all the great places you can stay DONT BOOK HERE! I highly recommend north/east shore!

We enjoyed our stay. We wanted to explore the west side of the island since this was our second time visiting Oahu. As others mentioned, the unit could use some work but it was as described/seen in the photos. The towels had a bit of a smell and some lights need to be replaced but the bed was very comfortable and the views were amazing. My biggest issue was the cleanliness—there were long black hairs everywhere that did not belong to myself or my spouse. Overall I’d still definitely recommend staying here—good value, the location is beautiful, the pool is great, and the host is very responsive and accommodating

We were so impressed driving up to the towers when we arrived. The landscaping and the peacocks, it is very beautiful. Unfortunately when we entered the condo, it was a bit of a downer. The AC was switched on, but we had to stop it immediately because of the very moldy smell coming from it. It does not look like that the kitchen and the bathroom ever got a makeover since the towers got constructed, so everything should be replaced.
The kitchen is not even equipped with essentials, no can opener, no big bowl to make a salad.
We bought spices and coffee, we never had to buy these before. No dresser available to empty the suitcase, and the existing closet is full of other stuff. We had to sweep the floors first, because of leftovers from the previous guests. We certainly feel that this place does not qualify as an VRBO place according to its condition.
As mentioned before, the landscaping including pool and the BBQ setup in the common area is great, the rest is not.

It was a nice place to stay. Great for the money. A little noisy with the peacocks. Little far out. But beautiful views clean property. Privacy. Would stay again.
