3-minute walk to Waikiki Beach! Comfortable 12th-floor studio with a king bed, kitchen, balcony, and partial ocean view. Away from street noise yet close to everything Waikiki has to offer.<br /><br />Features include a window A/C, free WiFi, 55" Smart TV, and cold-water bidet. Beach chairs, umbrella, boogie boards, and sand toys available for guest use.<br /><br />Restaurants, shopping, cafés, grocery stores, beaches, and nightlife are all within easy walking distance.<br /><br /><b>The space</b><br />This legal vacation rental building was formerly a hotel, so every unit has its own private entrance. This listing is a cozy one-bedroom apartment, perfect for a comfortable and relaxing stay. You’ll be within walking distance to restaurants, Waikiki Beach, and grocery stores. An ABC Store and a bus stop are conveniently located right at the corner of the building.<br /><br />If you’re traveling with a larger family or group, you may also book my adjacent studio unit, 12A, which sits directly next door—just one wall apart. I manage four units in this building, providing flexible options for guests who need additional space.<br /><br /><b>Guest access</b><br />Activities and Cultural Attractions<br /><br /> • Kuhio Beach - 3 minutes walk<br /> • Diamond Head - 11 minutes drive<br /> • Ala Moana Center - 8 minutes drive<br /> • International Marketplace - 8 minutes walk (6 minutes drive)<br /> • Koko Head - 22 minutes drive<br /> • Manoa Falls - 20 minutes drive<br /> • Lyon Arboretum - 20 minutes drive (in Manoa)<br /><br />Places to Eat and Drink<br /><br /> • Eggs’n Things<br /> • Musubi Cafe - 2 minutes walk<br /> • Marugame Udon - 8 minutes walk (3 minutes drive)<br /> • Leonard’s Bakery - 7 minutes drive<br /> • Nami Kaze Hawaii - 17 minutes drive<br /> • Star of Honolulu - 16 minutes drive (Dinner on Fridays for sunset and fireworks)<br /> • 53 By The Sea - 12 minutes drive (Great view of Friday fireworks)<br /> • The Original Roy’s in Hawaii Kai - 22 minutes drive (Ideal for special occasions)<br /><br />Museums and Cultural Sites<br /><br /> • Honolulu Museum of Art - 11 minutes drive<br /> • Bishop Museum - 16 minutes drive<br /> • Polynesian Cultural Center - 1 hour 3 minutes drive<br /> • Chief’s Luau - 35 minutes drive<br /> • Queens Waikiki Luau - 8 minutes walk (at International Marketplace)<br /> • Pearl Harbor National Memorial - 24 minutes drive<br /> • Shangri La Museum - 9 minutes drive<br /> • Iolani Palace - 15 minutes drive<br /> • Dole Plantation - 38 minutes drive<br /><br />Top Hiking Trails around Honolulu<br /><br /> • Lanika’i Pillbox Hike<br /> Location: East Hole<br /> Highlights: Excellent for sunrise views<br /> • Koko Head Staircase<br /> Description: The ultimate stair master<br /> Highlights: Amazing views from the top of an old WWII bunker<br /> • Manoa Falls<br /> Difficulty: Easy<br /> Highlights: Scenic rainforest hike leading to a beautiful waterfall<br /> • Aiea Loop Trail<br /> Length: 5 miles loop<br /> Highlights: Diverse rainforest landscapes along the trail<br /> • Makiki Valley Loop Trail<br /> Location: Hills above Honolulu<br /> Description: Explore a network of trails through different ecosystems<br /><br />These curated recommendations offer a blend of local experiences, dining options, cultural insights, and outdoor adventures for an enriching stay in Honolulu, Hawaii.

Thank you for your understanding.<br /><br />⸻<br /><br />Noise Advisory<br /><br />This property is located in a lively area, and occasional city noise may be heard — a common experience even at many five-star hotels in Waikiki.<br /><br />To maximize comfort, I recommend using the air conditioning and/or white noise while indoors.<br /><br />———<br /><br />Due to Hawaii’s warm and tropical climate, occasional insects may appear from time to time. Both the building and the unit are regularly serviced by professional pest control to help maintain a clean and comfortable environment.<br /><br /><b>Registration Details</b><br />126023072004, 1209, TA-047-961-2928-01
