Location, price, accommodations cannot be beat

We are first-timers to Hawaii-still there as I write this- and were fortunate
that Vlad and Gillian had three days available. Their condo deserves all the
praise that it has received It was beautifully equipped with a full kitchen
and was immaculate. The bed was large and very comfortable. Having a
local phone saved us many extra cell phone minutes. The lanai is small, but
fits two, and we used it often.. It overlooks the marina and the ocean.

From the building it is a short walk to the beaches in front of the
neighboring Hilton and to Waikiki, in one direction. There was good
shopping close by.

(At the Ala Moana Market Place, we enjoyed Mauana Loa Poi Bowl in the
food court. Be sure to season the poi with the Lomi Lomi Salmon. The
Island Vantage coffee stand in the court made one of the best espressos I've
ever had.

Our only problem was with WiFi, because I brought our old, less sensitive,
laptop with us. Although there were accessible networks all around, I got
the best, though still variable, reception by paying for the Metro18 network.

We highly recommend this unit and hope to stay in it again. This would have
been great at twice the price.
