Magnificent Ocean View Penthouse, FREE PARKING- Pool renovation until 2026

Enjoy being on top of the world and just one block from Waikiki's best beach. Our one bedroom beach house has breath taking panoramic ocean views from front and side windows, a separate fully equipped kitchen,
50" flat screen Smart T.V., large lanai facing the ocean, free WIFI and cable. As this suite is the penthouse level of 'The Diamond Stack' at the Waikiki Banyan, it is 60 sq. feet larger than other suites and offers three more windows and higher ceilings creating a larger living space. Our newly remodeled bathroom is a great addition to our clean and comfortable penthouse in paradise.

There is a view from almost everywhere in the apartment. Open all the blinds and enjoy seeing large expanses of Waikiki. Sit up in bed and the ocean view awaits you... The mirrored dining table wall allows you to see the view even if you're not looking directly out the window. This is a premier view condo.

If you are a boogie boarder or surfer you can look out and view the surf break. Look through the binoculars and maybe you'll be lucky enough to spot a whale. Our condo is both romantic and family friendly for all ages. We have created a relaxing and comfortable Hawaiian style environment that is welcoming and fun. As soon as you walk through the door you will be amazed at the view and feeling of Aloha.

Our condo has high quality Egyptian 1800 thread soft linens, a well stocked kitchen with pots, pans, rice cooker, toaster, microwave, coffee maker, slow cooker, and full size stove and refrigerator. The wood floors are cool and clean and perfect for a home by the beach. The large dining table is ready for you to enjoy a home cooked meal or just walk a few short steps to find a huge variety of take-out, casual and fine dining.

If you can tear yourself away from the spectacular view in the penthouse suite, you can walk a block to the most beautiful beach, the famous Honolulu Zoo, peaceful and majestic Kapiolani Park, the Aquarium, Aloha Shell, the International Marketplace, the Ali Wai golf course and all the upscale and fun shopping on Kalakaua Avenue. The efficient Bus stops within a block and provides affordable transportation to Chinatown, Diamond Head, the Ala Moana Shopping Center, Ward Center and the movie complex located there, the Academy of Fine Arts, Bishop Museum, Iolani Palace, Pearl Harbor, and The Bus completely circles the island if you want to visit the North Shore, Lanikai, Kahala and every area you may want to explore.

The Waikiki Banyan is a top rated resort that features a recreation deck with a large swimming pool, lounge chairs, 2 hot tubs with jets, a snack bar, tennis, pickleball court and basketball courts, very clean coin operated BBQ grills with outdoor seating. On the pool level there are also restrooms, showers and dressing area with saunas. The lobby features a beautiful waterfall and koi pond as well as a mini mart, coffee house/juice bar/sandwich shop with WIFI, copier and printer, and wonderful historic Hawaiian framed photos that you will enjoy viewing. The bank of 4 elevators will swiftly return you to the top floor and your home in Hawaii.

We have created a notebook of our favorite hikes, restaurants, open organic markets, free classes, unpublished tours, events, etc. for our guests. We want you to have the best experience possible while visiting our Island. We will meet you upon arrival to give you the keys and acquaint you with the condo and amenities and we're close by if you need anything during your stay.

Free parking is included, $43 a night value.

A Perfect Hawaiian Getaway

We had the most amazing time at this property! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the stunning views and the peaceful atmosphere. The home was exactly as described—spacious, beautifully decorated, and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay.The location was ideal for exploring the island, with easy access to the beach, hiking trails, and local shops. We especially enjoyed spending time on the beach just a short walk away. The neighborhood felt safe, and we felt right at home from day one.The host was incredibly responsive and went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. They even left us a thoughtful welcome gift with local treats, which was a wonderful touch.If you're looking for a relaxing, beautiful retreat in Hawaii, I highly recommend this property. We can’t wait to return for our next vacation!CAU. For your protection, pl

Fabulous location excellent host communication

We stayed 9 days beginning late February 2025. Marilyn is an excellent communicator; not too much but just the right amount of contact.The property is small but just right for a couple with beautiful views. We found this end of Waikiki much nicer than the more touristy end. The beach, a block away, has a breakfront making it like a safe little lagoon. The property is attractive and very clean but could use a little updating as could the entire building.

Stunning view of both the ocean and Diamond Head from this penthouse apartment. If you open the windows to enjoy the lovely breezes you won’t even need to use the air conditioner. Great outdoor pool on the 6th floor.Be sure to ask Marilyn for restaurant recommendations. She won’t steer you wrong.

Beautiful Penthouse

Our family had a great time staying at this beautiful penthouse. Marilyn was fantastic, she was extremely accommodating and had great communication! She met us for check in. Pointed out where to park in the garage. Showed us her beautiful penthouse and gave us all the information we needed to know. We even had to bother her to get us a package we sent through Amazon. She was very kind enough to get it for us and leave it in the room. The view was amazing! Place was spacious enough for a family of 3. It was a short walk to the beach and shops. The plus for us was that the parking was included, since we rented a vehicle. We definitely would stay here again. Thanks again, Marilyn!

It’s all about the view

The apartment has a stunning view and is very comfortable. Not only can you lie in bed and look at the ocean. you and also look at Diamond Head. The apartment is located at the quiet end of Waikiki just a block from the ocean front at Queens and a few blocks from the park. It doesn’t get much better than this. Marilyn and Robert were exceedingly helpful and friendly hosts. If you like music, Blue Note Hawaii is a short walk away with world class music at a fraction of the price in NY. The apartment also has a ukulele so if you want to channel your inner Jake, here is your opportunity.
