2947 Kalakaua Ave #303 Legal Vacation Rental Located at the foot of the iconic Diamond Head crater, this home away from home has everything you need for either business / pleasure or a little of both. A complete high end remodel completed April 2017 by the new owners will leave you breathless. The attention to detail to ensure everything you need is in the suite, quality of fabrics, design and overall feel of this suite may have you wondering if you are actually staying at a spa resort. ** For your health and safety, we utilize additional Sterilization procedures between reservations. Having done much traveling ourselves we decided to try and include everything we love to find in a vacation rental. From the organic cotton sheets to Coffee pot that can make one to 6 cups at one time. The studio has high-speed WiFi and 'airport' printer for those needing to get a little work done (or just print-off local hikes & boarding passes) during their stay. The HD TV comes with cable included. Plenty of USB charging areas are located around the suite also. The bathroom was super important to us and was inspired by several luxury spa locations around the world. Your total comfort was our #1 goal from concept to fruitition with our suite. We think it's ideally suited for couples, families of four or would be perfect for business travelers looking to split work and relaxation. All our guests are welcomed in person at the suite on arrival, no matter what time your stay with us begins. We'll answer questions and share tips on popular spots to eat at & visit if needed too. The neighborhood is located at the base of Diamond Head, near the Waikiki Aquarium, across from Kapiolani Park, on the beautiful Pacific Ocean, and within walking distance of Waikiki and its attractions. Just beyond Waikiki at the base of Diamond Head is Honolulu’s “Gold Coast.” The Gold Coast is the last strip of buildings at the end of Kalakaua Ave. across from Kapiolani Park. Unlike the “hustle and bustle” of Waikiki, the Gold Coast is a little more quiet.Right out the front doors of these buildings offer great swimming, diving, and surfing breaks such as Tongg’s, Rice Bowls, Old Man’s, and several others. You’ve also got Kapiolani Park on the Mauka (mountain side) as I mentioned, which is a great spot for outdoor activities and the finish line for the Honolulu Marathon, the Tinman Triathlon, etc. Also the Diamond Head Beach Hotel is less than 2 buildings away from Private Clubs such as the Elk’s Club and the Outrigger Canoe Club. - Uber and Lyft are available in Honolulu and Waikiki - 'Biki' bikeshare is available throughout Waikiki & Honolulu - Try out 'Segway' tours of Waikiki, using their stand-up scooters - Convenient public transportation options include 'TheBus' and the 'Waikiki Trolley' - Taxis are another great way to travel when in a group and the cost can be shared. You can find taxi stands at hotels, most major shopping malls and at the airport. Note that using taxi stands and calling for pick-ups by phone or via hotel concierge is the norm in Hawaii rather than hailing a cab. There's free parking across the park 24/7, or metered parking across the street (free from 6pm - 10am) We also have a secure parking garage at an additional nightly rate, Please remember to book parking at time of booking as there are limited spaces and it is on a first come first served basis. :)
