This is not one of those rentals that advertise close to the beach but instead it is actually on the polluted Ala Wai Canal nor is it one of those residential walk up buildings that has no elevators leaving you to carry your luggage up and down many flights of stairs. Kalakaua is one block to the beach. This is an immaculate one bedroom that sleeps up to four comfortably. Rate includes gated garage parking. This air-conditioned executive suite has lots of upgrades and additions. The unit is equipped with a Pentium IV
computer that allows high speed internet access and a wireless signal for your personal laptop. It has a Deluxe King bed in the bedroom and a very comfortable $1,300 sleeper couch bed with lots of extra linens. There is also a single futon with linens. This suite has been stocked with X Box & games LCD TV and CD stereo. It boasts a full kitchen with full size refrigerator, stove/oven, pots, pans, rice cooker, dishes and silverware, deluxe Sharper Image T-Fal toaster, heavy duty blender, 2 color TVs, 2 stereos(CD & Tape), 2 DVD Players, $400 Sanyo microwave/Browner, tea pot, coffee maker and grinder, 2 remote phones, smoke alarms, iron and ironing board, lots of towels, large vacuum w/hand vacuum and 2 alarm clock radio/CD players in the bedroom and livingroom. The unit is on the second floor and easily accessible by stairs or elevator....just 5 steps from the elevator and parking. Secure covered
parking (compact size) is included at no extra cost. There are fireworks one block away at the Hilton Hawaiian Beach Resort and Spa every Friday night between 7:30 pm and 8:00 pm. Subway Deli, ABC Store, 7Eleven and Cheeseburgers in Paradise are next door. Outback Steakhouse, Red Lobster, Benihanas, Kobe Steakhouse n Sushi, Todai Seafood Buffet and California Pizza Kitchen are one block away....Many more unnamed all close within 2 blocks. You will enjoy visiting because of your proximity to the beach, (Hilton Hawaiiian Village Beach Resort and Spa) and ocean activities, shopping (Ala Moana Shopping Center), grocery store (The Food Pantry), night life, restaurants and of course the new Hawaii Convention Center. Nearby activities: Golf, Tennis, Fishing, Wildlife Viewing, Shopping, Restaurants, Live Theater, Cinemas, Museums, Sightseeing, Swimming, Snorkeling & Diving, Boating, Sailing, Surfing, Windsurfing, Parasailing, Jet Skiing, Shelling. If you click this link Honolulu, HI 96815 on Yahoo! Maps, Driving Directions, and Traffic , you will see that the unit is one block to the beach and (Waikiki) is just 25 minutes from the airport. I like to price the condo low and keep it full. Hotels on this street are charging $179/night for a tiny room with no kitchen, and no view. I have had a few people cancel their reservations at their hotel to come stay here. I like to keep the condo in a condition that will guarantee EVERY guest will have positive comments. Rate is based on double occupancy. Please $14 per night per person after two people.

Condo was great choice for the 2 of us. It is easy walking distance to Waikiki without the high prices of Waikiki. Everything worked in the condo as Manny said it would and the new flat screen TV was appreciated.

10/25/13 Positive
We really enjoyed our stay in the condo.
The landlord was waiting for us when we
arrived and we were able to check in
early which was a plus. The condo was
clean and had everything we needed. Free
parking was great as was proximity to
the beach and shops. The bed was large
and very comfy also. Glad we stayed
here!

06/03/13 Positive My landlord Emmanuel is fabulous. Emmanuel is very accommodating (yes - pardon the pun) and takes his responsibilities as landlord very seriously. I stayed in Emmanuel's condo for 10 nights and it is what everyone and Emmanuel says about it. Incredibly clean, plenty of space, good position (really close to the Hilton Hawaiian Village - which is on the beach) close to shops restaurants, great internet and I really appreciated the downloaded movies. I'm not sure that it is possible to get the same amenities at that price anywhere else in Waikiki. Emmanuel was really prompt at refunding the security deposit and he is generally an all round nice guy. Hope to see you again one day. Gina PS - there is the most fabulous massage/spa place just around the corner - ZENZA - true nail artisans.

04/19/13 Positive We visit Hawaii several times a year,
and prefer to rent condos. We recently
had the pleasure of renting Emmanuel's
one bedroom condo at 1911 Kalakaua Ave.
We rent a car, and don't normally spend
a lot of time in Waikiki, so this
location was very convenient. The unit
was super clean,comfortable, and you
can't beat free parking. It's an easy
walk to the Hilton Hawaiian Village, and
also close to the convention center and
Ala Moana.

04/07/13 Positive I really enjoy staying in this apartment with my kids!
The place is nice and clean with a lot of amenities, very
close to the beach and shopping. Parking spot was a
plus. I would love to come back and stay there again!

11/20/12 Positive I thoroughly enjoyed the location,
cleanliness and care that went in to
Emmanuel Chen's Condo at
1911 Kalakaua Ave
Honolulu, HI. 96815. Emmanuel is very
insightful as to guiding us to places to
visit and see. He loaded the computer
with movies for down time. I don't think
you will find a hotel with that amount
of square feet - with the amenities he
offers "the comforts of home" for the
price he offers. well worth the price,
clean and great location ;O) Aloha...
plus; parking is included which you will
be grateful for, parking is a burden and
hotels charge daily rates but this
privilege is included in the package.

08/25/12 Positive Excellent location!!! Very centrally located. Free
parking was a nice bonus. The condo was well
kept and clean. Emmanuel is super easy to deal
with. He is very quick to reply to any concerns or
questions. Our security deposit is already being
sent as we are still at the airport. Free WIFI is
very nice. This place is highly recommended for
anyone staying in Waikiki. Thanks Emmanuel for
making our visit so pleasant!!

06/25/12 Positive We (myself and two other colleagues) recently stayed in Emmanuel's superb self-catering condo while attending an international conference at the Hilton Hawaiian Village. The condo is very conveniently located--it was just a short 5 minute stroll to the conference venue. The beach was very easily accessible, as were restaurants and shops. It is also very reasonably priced, much less expensive than the Hilton, for example, especially when you factor in the savings associated with being able to prepare your own meals. We were pleased that the condo was in such great shape--everything was exceptionally clean and well kept. It was a nice place to work in, with a good computer and internet access, and very close to a cafÃƒÆ’Ã‚Â© with a lovely outdoor patio and free wifi. It was easy to meet with Emmanuel upon arrival and checkout. I would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Honolulu, and would certainly stay here again.

05/14/12 Positive We had four adults and two children stay six nights in the condo and our stay was very comfortable and fit all our needs. The condo owner, Emmanuel, was very nice and made sure all of our needs were taken care of. If you are looking to spend time in Waikiki the location is perfect.
James, Ketchikan, AK

05/10/12 Positive Highly recommended. The place was immaculate. Manny admires cleanliness and so do I. Location was perfect, on Kalakaua Ave., between the strip and the mall. As you exit the front door, to your right is an ABC store and the left a 7-11. You can't get more convenient than that. You are a stroll away from the beach. Access was easy. Parking, I would suggest a compact car. It's a bit of a squeeze. Pics were accurate. Owner was very accommodating. All in all 5/5.

04/15/12 Positive We stayed at Emmanuel's condo at Kalakaua Ave for 9 days from April 4 to April 13. The condo is equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Emmanuel makes sure that all his customers use his condo clean and takes great care of his unit. He also provides lots of towels to make your stay by the beach carefree and clean. From the condo, it is a very short walk to Hilton Hawaiian Village right at the beach, so don't miss to go out on a nice post dinner walk and check out their Friday night fireworks!(It is supposed to be for about 10 minutes starting 7:45PM, but give yourself a little extra time as they could start it a little earlier) My two young boys (11 and 8) each got to have his own bed (couch bed and futon bed) to sleep and to call his base. The king size bed at the bedroom was very comfortable and we slept very well. We also watched some movies Emmanuel had on his TV including "Decendants","Slumdog Millionaire" and "Kickass". Pretty nice selections! Thank you, Manny, for making us feel welcome and helped us have wonderful vacation.

02/08/12 Positive This condo is a little gem ! We stayed for 8 days. It is perfect for two people. All the comforts of home. A nice little walk to the beach, shops, restaurants. We would definitely recommend this place, and we would stay again ! Thanks so much.

Kim, Sacramento CA

02/02/12 Positive The host was most helpful and "down home" friendly. The apartment was CLEAN!! I walked around for a whole day in my WHITE sox. They were still white when I went to bed that night. Now that is clean. That was a very positive week. Thanks
Chuck & Jane Irwin, Fresno, California

07/25/11 Positive This condo was so well located that we only rented a car for 2 of the 7 days to go to the Arizona Memorial and the North Shore. Parking was great as we rented a Smart Car that fit well. (Warning, do not rent from the Smart Car rental just down the street, we had a big problem with the owner over a tiny ding on the car acquired in another lot and the owner wanted to charge "out of service" fees until the car went into the shop as if the car couldn't be driven with a paint ding.) The free Internet access was a huge plus as I uploaded vacation pics to FB every evening. Emmanuel Chen was such a sincere owner, wanting us to have a positive experience and very enthusiastic about the condo and Waikiki. He was easily accessible before and during our stay. He was very quick to return our deposit. The price was right.. There are so many free things to do right on the beach...fireworks on Friday nights by the marina and Movies on Queen's Beach. The Ukelele Festival was amazing and free with international musicians, hula, and food vendors. That too was within walking distance. The close free attractions add to the affordability. Plenty of nice big towels provided, a very comfortable and large bed as well. Very well equipped kitchen. Paper goods aren't included but easily picked up across the street at the very friendly Kuhio Pharmacy. I would recommend to friends and family.

06/08/11 Positive Very nice little condo only a few blocks from the beach, Hilton's Hawaiian Village, Ala Moana park and the mall. It's on the main drag (Kalakaua Ave.) right into the heart of Waikiki. Our family stayed there for 7 days and Emmanuel made us feel VERY welcome! There was enough room for our three boys and the kitchen was great for making meals when we wanted to save money and not eat out. Thanks, Emmanuel!
John C., Parker, CO

05/31/11 Positive What a great deal and excellent location to get your Island swagger on! Emmanuel's condo is super clean, and it's a great home-from-home, right in downtown Honolulu. It's an easy walk to Waikiki Beach and to all the cool shops and restaurants, including the incomparable Duke's. Rent this condo and you also get free, secure parking, a bonus worth $25 to $50 per day. Finally, you've got a great landlord in Emmanuel "Manny" Chen. He'll make sure your stay is island rock solid! Enjoy!
Mark, Eagle River, Alaska

03/27/11 Positive We had a great stay in Emmanuel's condo
in spite of the tsunami.We found that
everything we saw in the condo's website
was was very accurate and that
Emmanuel was a hospitable and helpful
owner.
We would recommend this condo to our
friends
Bruce Allan, Toronto Canada

01/28/11 Positive This has to have been the cleanest condo that I have ever stayed at. The two of us made the best of it and both agreed that every thing in it was Great. The walking to the beach and restaurants are very close. The owner was honest and just a nice person to talk to and feel good once all questions were answered.
John, San Diego, CA

10/18/10 Positive Location, location, location - there isn't a better place to stay in Waikiki. If you plan on staying in the Honolulu/Waikiki area, don't even bother renting a car because EVERYTHING (shopping, dining, beaches, convenience stores, public trans, rental shops, other hotels, tourist attractions, etc.) is within close walking distance from Emmanuel's condo - literally "down the street". I rented both a bicycle (beach cruiser) & car (Nissa Sentra), so the free garage parking & convenient street bike racks were a major plus. The garage space is a bit tight but I fit just fine next to a huge SUV thanks to my San Francisco parking skills lol. There are also many bus stops across the streets, & the easy-to-navigate bus ride to the airport took less than an hour during a busy afternoon. Emmanuel was always prompt & thorough responding to all my concerns, & he even allowed me to check-in SUPER early which was great because down the street at the Hilton, where I was staying at first, did not have free internet access so I ended up checking out of there early & staying at his condo instead. The place is, of course, very clean & Emmanuel does insist it stay that way so he can return the deposit, which he did so fast I had just barely left the airport after my trip to Hawaii. It is noisy outside but you don't hear any of that noise if you close the doors of course! Anyway, it was MUCH quieter than the Hilton, where I was rudely awakened at sunrise everyday (until I checked-in to the condo) by angry hotel employees on strike. Emmanuel, thanks again for being so accommodating - truly a home away from home. My 2 friends & I very much enjoyed staying at your condo & they send you a big "Mahalo" as well. Take care & good luck with your awesome business.
