Diamond Head Beach - Large Studio - Queen Bed, Balcony, Ocean View, Ocean Access

*****

The Diamond Head Beach property was a wonderful place to stay! It was roomy with plenty of places to relax and enjoy the gorgeous views of both Diamond Head and the ocean including a private lanai. This studio is very clean and well kept. The host, Mark was easy to contact, responsive and very pleasant! I've now found my go-to place. One piece of advice is it might be worth paying to park as there were times available parking was very far away, especially on the weekend. - (Mar 2025 - VRBO)

We had a great time at Diamond Head Beach. Great views from the balcony and the property patio area. The traffic was a little noisy at times, but nothing excessive - Waikiki is a busy place! We appreciated the toaster, hot plate, and coffee maker for light breakfast prep. I highly recommend this property if staying in Honolulu for a few days. - (Mar 2025 - VRBO)

Had all the right touches. Amazing sunsets on the back lawn. Nice location. Little outside the city but minutes to everything you need and Waikiki. Thank you. hope to stay again - (Feb 2025 - Airbnb)

This beachfront property is absolutely stunning, with incredible views and the beach just steps away. The home was clean, cozy, and well-equipped. The area is close to several great restaurants and cafes. The owner was incredibly helpful and proactive. The space also provided thoughtful extras like beach chairs, umbrellas, towels, and a lunch pail, which were perfect for beach adventures. Parking was initially tricky due to a nearby marathon, but once it wrapped up, it was easy and within walking distance. Overall, this is the ideal spot for a relaxing and scenic getaway-I'd happily return! - (Dec 2024 - Airbnb)

This location was ideal. The condo's amenities are like a hotel room, but priced lower than any hotel in the area. A short walk to lots of activities and the views were amazing. The balcony was great too. - (Nov 2024 - Airbnb)

Mark's place is a gem and if you are lucky enough to snatch it up, it's probably the most stress free spot in that general area of Waikiki. We were so lucky to stay in this room and have great views, such a peaceful stay, and everything we could have possibly needed. - (Oct 2024 - Airbnb)

Great spot to set up base and explore Honolulu. Swimming, diamond head, bustling Waikiki, restaurants, and all. Couldn't have asked for better place. - (Oct 2024 - VRBO)

Loved this condo and the quiet neighborhood. Walking distance from shops and restaurants on Waikiki Beach. You can see the sun rise over Diamondhead in the morning and watch the sunset from the balcony in the evening. Condo owner gave great instructions for location and checking in. Condo was clean and comfortable. Would definitely stay here again! - (Oct 2024 - VRBO)

The room was so well maintained, clean and well organized. The views of Diamond Head and the water were crazy beautiful. Mark was so responsive and willing to help. I would definitely stay here again. - (Sep 2024 - VRBO)

Mark's place looks exactly like the pictures- the views of Diamond Head are stunning and you can also see plenty of water. He has a table and chairs on the deck and also a nice lounge where you can relax and just look at the view. Parking is no problem, you do not need to pay for an inside spot. All of Waikiki is walkable from his place or a quick Uber ride. The beach is a short walk as well as a great beachside cafe for breakfast. Mark was actually there when we arrived and is super friendly and very helpful with all of his check in instructions and suggestions. He provides beach towels, chairs, and a cooler to use as well. I highly recommend staying here over the other spots in Waikiki- a little extra money but well worth it! The only thing that might bother people is that the air conditioner is loud but we use a white noise machine anyway so we liked it. However, we were here in July and most of the time had it off bc the condo has a great ocean breeze! - (Jul 2024 - Airbnb)

Located a few minutes from Kapiolani Park and a few steps to the ocean it doesn't get much better. Our condo had a lanai so you can enjoy the sun and breezes all day long if you so desire. Honolulu without the crowd! - (Jun 2024 - VRBO)

Can't say enough good things about this place. The views from the balcony are stunning, with Diamond Head and Honolulu on one side and the ocean on the other. I even slept on the balcony one night because it was so relaxing and scenic. The common area downstairs is also an incredible spot to take in the sunset off the Pacific. No issues with check-in or anything really. Bathroom and shower were nice, bed was comfy. Free parking on the other side of the park, easy little walk. About a 15-minute walk to the main strip in Waikiki. Mark checked in to see if everything was OK and it definitely was. Would highly recommend this place and I'll be staying here again if I ever come back! - (Dec 2023 - Airbnb)

Mark's place was wonderful! It's walking distance to the hustle and bustle of Waikiki but you're not in it at the end of the day. A guaranteed beautiful of the sunset each evening and easy access to water. Street parking worked well for us, but we're from San Francisco where we're accustom to walking to a car that might not be directly in front of our house. The room had all the essentials and a lanai with expansive, beautiful views of makai and mauka side. - (Oct 2023 - Airbnb)

Absolutely loved it. Would definitely stay there again. Incredible views from the lanai! Close to beach and Elks Lodge. Thanks Mark! - (Aug 2023 - VRBO)

*****

The condo was very clean and nicely decorated. The balcony provided a great view of the ocean and Diamond Head. I loved the location near the park and Waikiki Beach. It's near bus lines, but we also walked everywhere and did our favorite run around Diamond Head. Highly recommend. - (May 2023 - VRBO)

*****

If you are happy to walk or pay for an Uber ($10-$15 to Waikiki and to Diamond Head) it's a nice location away from the hustle and bustle of Waikiki. Beautiful views of the ocean and diamond Head. The condo was very clean and Mark was wonderful to communicate with. It took us about 15 minutes to walk into the heart of Waikiki. Parking wasn't an issue. Very good value. - (May 2023 - VRBO)

*****

Stunning views, perfect location, super accommodating host, clean and convenient...Mark's place is ideal for anyone wanting to experience Waikiki. I like how it's not in the heart of Waikiki and still close enough to walk anywhere but far enough away not to be entirely crazy. I had a great time during my visit and loved sitting out on the lanai soaking in the ocean views to my left and mountain views, including Diamond Head, to my right. - (Sep 2022 - Airbnb)

*****

Mark's place is so gorgeous! You can see the beach with ocean waves on the one side of the lanai while appreciating diamond head and the whole Manoa area on the other side. It's within walking distance to many attractions and there's a bus stop right under the building. Parking works well for us on Paki Ave as well. We will definitely miss our stay in Mark's place! - (Aug 2022 - Airbnb)
