Those of us who love the Hawaiian Islands feel a strong sense of place. We are connected to this land (aina) and to the ocean (wai) and to the winds (makani) that bring us renewal and peace. We strive to show Aloha (love, and consideration and compassion) to others. I invite you to experience some of these gifts that Hawaii has to offer. My unit at Diamond Head Beach Hotel has been designed to reflect a combination of tranquility and hope. It offers a view of the Pacific Ocean and sunset is an especially beautiful time. The trade winds provide a soothing tropical breeze. The Diamond Head Beach Hotel guests and residents have access to the ocean front lanai and lawn. An ocean access (known locally as the Silver Stairs) is just a few steps away which is also the entry point for several surf breaks. My Unit is fully furnished: rattan furnishings, a new queen bed and mattress with designer high thread count sheets, a Keurig type coffee maker, microwave, blender, toaster, fan, air conditioner, desk and small refrigerator. Battery candles too! Beach towels are provided for your enjoyment as well as snorkel and mask, beach chairs. umbrella and boogie boards There is a yoga mat available in the unit. There is a small library of books about the Hawaiian Islands and Hawaiian culture. And, for fun, there are multiple pineapple lamps!
The physical location is far enough from Waikiki that you are not in the middle of crowds of tourists, yet you are within walking distance should you want to go there. It is across the street from Kapiolani park “the jewel of Oahu”. It is on the slopes of Diamond Head and walking or jogging around Diamond Head is a favorite activity for enthusiasts. Kaimana Beach is less than 150 yards away and offers a wonderful safe, sandy and life-guarded swimming beach that is very popular with locals.
If you are someone looking to find a little more soul in your staycation or vacation, and love and care for creatures, earth and ocean, please submit a request to book or feel free to contact me for more information. Mahalo!

This is a lovely place to stay; walking distance to all Waikiki beaches, a view out both front and back, very spacious studio unit, fantastic seaside lanai, well equipped kitchen and bath. Jo was very friendly and supportive; met us at the condo with leis and further gifts - she was extremely welcoming. We hope to have the privilege to stay here again soon.

We had a great time at the apartment. On arrival Jo met us at the apartment and gave a tour of the property. The location was ideal, just a short walk to Kapiolani Park and beach. The views of Diamond Head and the sunsets at the patio were spectacular. The apartment itself was very comfortable and nicely appointed. I would highly recommend staying here.

It was a nice place to stay. Clean and cozy away from the "downtown" area. Great communication with the host. We loved the outdoor area and view- it was very relaxing. The only issue we had was parking on a couple of nights. The free parking across the street is great, but there were activities going on a the park on a couple of the nights we were there and it was very difficult to find parking, because we didn't return to the room until later in the evening. I would suggest researching if there will be activities at that park so you can arrive early to get parking on those days. Other than that it was a wonderful stay!

We would stay there again.... Nice greeting by host and communication with host was very good. Renting here is much better than a hotel room. It takes about 5 to 6 minutes to walk to all the action of Waikiki our direction was 180 and walk around Diamond Head. If your looking for a place where you want to do a lot of cooking, maybe not for you. If you just want to heat up takeout then no problem. Suggest you check out Diamond Head grill for take out. From the park up Monsarrat street you will find other food offerings. In waikiki I suggest the Yard House for Happy Hour or after happy hour good food and beverages. The host left creamer in the frig for your coffee, nice of her to do that. Mahalo and Aloha

Jo is a wonderful host. She provided everything that we needed and the location was perfect. Close enough to where the actions were but far enough to be quiet! We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you Jo!

A small property but a great location away from the the traffic and noise of Waikiki. Sunsets were amazing and being right next to the water made it extra special. Our host Jo was the best! She took all the stress out of scheduling by helping us get in early and quickly communicating with us.

Jo was so kind to accommodate our late night check in. We felt very welcomed! The place is in a great location—quieter than being right in Waikiki, but still within walking distance to the action. There is a nice swimming beach very close and if you rent a car, there is free overnight parking just across the street at Kapiolani Park. We really enjoyed our stay!

I stayed with my mother during a busy week in July. Lovely place, extremely tidy and with a great view of the ocean and sunset. Jo is extremely sweet and understanding, and is very easy to get in touch with. Very happy we had the opportunity to stay in such a wonderful environment while we were visiting. Highly recommended!

What a perfect location...Right by a great local beach, Kaimana Beach, for swimming, surfing and sunbathing. A short colorful walk along beautiful Kapiolani Park and coastline to get to the center of wild Waikiki with so much going on. The unit itself is cozy with terrific sunset views of Waikiki beaches. Jo, was very accommodating as she met me at the entrance and walked me through the complex and unit. Lots of nice touches in the unit! And a lovely sitting area in front of the complex right on the ocean. Great stay...Highly recommend it! Richard
