Impeccable Penthouse - Ocean & Diamondhead Views
About this house rental
PANORAMIC OCEAN, DIAMOND HEAD & KAPOLANI PARK VIEWS. It's a première residential lifestyle ON THE GOLD COAST! A brief 15 minute breathtakingly beautiful walk to Waikiki’s famous beaches, shopping, dining and nightlife. This is not some tired old Waikiki hotel room with a sliver of an ocean view and smelly carpets. Located AT THE TOP of the Diamond Head Beach Hotel, this penthouse studio has panoramic views of Diamond Head to the east and Waikiki to the west, including ocean, mountain and park views. Some guests have likened it to a crows nest due to the outstanding views. Stylish and tastefully renovated -- with Travertine floors, Cherry Wood cabinets, African Ivory Granite counter tops, white Island Shutters, white Leather chairs, indigenous Koa wood furnishings, Kohler bath products, 52" HD TV, Digital Cable, HBO, FREE Password Protected Secure High Speed Wi-Fi, and a Memory Foam King bed with Egyptian cotton sheets help to make your stay comfortable, tranquil and rejuvenating. All you need to do is open the windows and take it in! There is no real need for a car -- as you won't want to leave this highly desirable Gold Coast neighborhood with everything you need within walking distance. The Bus stops out front and we have UBER, Lyft and Biki as well. There is a laundry room in the basement / garage, and there are several car parking stalls for rent--if you must. The BEST reasons for selecting my Impeccable Penthouse -- AWESOME OCEAN VIEWS, QUALITY OF LIFE, and LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION! All within 15 minutes walking distance of Waikiki, but far enough away from the excitement and buzz (cars & music) that you can sleep with the windows open and let the pacific ocean ebb and flow lull you to sleep. Please read my guest's comments and see for yourself. My Penthouse is a dream vacation location with an opportunity to create some of life’s most memorable moments. So what are you waiting for? Check my calendar for availability and Book It Now! I’m waiting to hear from you! With Aloha PS Our lovely lawn is rarely used so you might consider spending some time relaxing on a lounge chair in the shade of the palm trees.

I can't say enough good things about the property and the owner. As soon as I booked I knew we were in good hands. The owner, Jan, is wonderful at communication and offers a wealth of information to help you get the most out of your stay. Inside the room, make sure to check the binder filled with great tips and suggestions. Additionally, the room itself is so well appointed. You can tell that a lot of thought and care was put into creating a restful space with amenities I have not had at other stays in Hawaii.
And the place itself, WOW. The views are incredible. The location is perfect, being in the city but not in the city. I have stayed in Waikiki and while it is nice in some aspects, it can be noisy and even a bit stressful, if constant activity is not what you are looking for. This property is the antidote. Also, the room is immaculate, and the property is secure and well-maintained.
Also, you can't get closer to the water. It's right there! You can get in the water anytime you want, which I did, from an access staircase close by. I am an avid snorkeler and to me, this was more than I had hoped for. I also appreciated greatly the ability to use the hosts beach equipment. I normally have to borrow it from my local family, which is great as well, but I didn't have to bother anyone this time!
You cannot go wrong if you book this property. I am so grateful to Jan for making my trip as stress-free and enjoyable as possible! I will book again for sure. Thank you!

We stayed a week and the penthouse was fantastic with incredible views, wonderful location with small private comfortable grassy area for lounging and swim. Jan is a great communicator. It was great to be able to “drop in” to waikiki then return to the quiet neighborhood. Highly recommend this place.

Can't say enough about the location! Close enough to walk but not in the middle of all the noise. Jan (owner) was great with suggestions and communication. The property was super clean. Great at night to sit out and have a glass of wine, enjoy the ocean.

Property is on Kalakaua close to Diamond Head Road and set apart from Waikiki, but still easy walking distance to shops, cafes, restaurants as well as Kapiolani park, the zoo and aquarium. Great running/walking route to Kahala with scenic vistas. Street parking was easily available and free. Love the backyard/lanai- beautiful location for watching sunrise/sunset with unobstructed view of the ocean. Swimming/surfing off the sea wall, but best snorkeling is 1/2 block away at Kamaina beach. The room was immaculate and tastefully decorated, well stocked with toiletries, towels, coffee, kitchen utensils (microwave) even beach equipment. Room is small and Penthouse description is misleading- it is #4 of 5 units, so not a great view from either side and no personal lanai. Still, a great bargain given the location.

We love the Gold Coast and come here every 3 months. We’ve stayed in many units here. We liked this unit, but know that there is no outside balcony for sitting as part of the unit. Yes, there is a ground area which is great. We just like to start our mornings right off the unit being able to sit outside. Unit is clean, Jan is a good communicator. Also know that the bathroom and kitchen are kind of like one room. The bathroom and kitchen sink are the same. It’s better for one person and a short stay. I do recommend it though.

This property is perfect for those who value time on the beach as it is very close to the beach. The view is awesome. The room is somewhat more like a New York sublet than what I expected. Its small. Just know that. Also, if shopping and being in the bustling city is more your speed, I would stay elsewhere closer to the shops. Its about .08 mile which is t terrible but gets annoying if you just want to go to ABC store. Overall, really great experience and would recommend!

Had a great stay. Only about one mile walk to Waikiki so we got the quiet of Diamond Head but a short jaunt to the faster pace of Waikiki. Rented through Turo twice. Both cars were only 1/2 a mile away so it was very centrally located. Jan was great! Very helpful.

We found this gem in Waikiki perfect for us during our two week stay. Thank you so much, Jan, for all of your suggestions and making us feel so at home there. The bed was so comfortable, and we loved waking up each morning to the amazing ocean views! Your place met our needs very well, and we hope to return again. Highly recommend!!

Modern Penthouse studio with incredible views and lovely appointments, all within walking distance to Waikiki and Diamond Head. Large oceanfront lawn lanai has chaises and tables for R&R and gathering for sunsets! Building is well-maintained and has night security patrol. Jan Davis is the consummate host: both responsive, yet respects renter’s privacy. Highly recommend this little slice of paradise!!!

I adore this property and it was one of my best vacations ever! The area was safe, peaceful, and quiet with stunning, captivating views but so close to all the restaurants, shopping and energy of the heart of Waikiki. I love how close it sits to the tennis/pickleball courts at Diamond Head and enjoyed a daily walk on Diamond Head Road with magical views. Jan was delightful and provided many wonderful recommendations. The condo had everything I needed and the breezes made for the most refreshing experience when at the condo. There is nothing I can think of that could be improved upon as this rental is a treasure!

Very comfortable and tastefully decorated. The host has everything you might need - well supplied. We had the benefits of Waikiki as it was a short walk without the crowds and noise. Plan your parking which was a challenge on weekends and certain times of the day.

This property is ideally located at the east end of the Waikiki strip just below Diamond Head. Just far enough away to avoid most of the Waikiki craziness but really nicely located for travel to the windward side. Time your travels west to the North Shore carefully to avoid Honolulu traffic as you can. The unit itself is on the penthouse level and is small but really sweet with gorgeous views out of both sides of the place. Good swimming off the seawall at the end of the day and even a decent surf break just offshore. We parked on the street and never had an issue with paying, tickets or prowlers. Go to Sweet-E's for breakfast if you can. All in a great stay and Jan is exceptionally responsive. We'll do it again for sure.

Just beautiful
Jan was so lovely in our stay at her condo, prompt response if anything needed and she was actually there when we arrived making sure the condo was up to go cleaning standard. Thos condo has spectacular views of beach on both sides and diamond head, the views are one of the reasons we picked this condo. The space is small but honestly for a few day trip it is perfect for a couple. My husband really appreciated the seating area as he's not one to want to lay in bed and watch tv. Also having a smart tv to stream what we want was perfect after a day exploring Oahu. We were able to walk to great restaurants in the neighborhood and it's a short distance to be in the lively part of Waikiki with a sand beach just a few hundred feet away. We did go out to the water one evening, be careful of the waves they can be rough in the afternoon when getting off the ladder into the water and i must say you need to be able to swim because you aren't able to stand for the most part at least not me being 5'6". The check in was easy, instructions with tje pics were very helpful. You can get an uber or lyft easy, we rented a car for 2 days to be able to get up to the north shore and Kualoa ranch and i was able to purchase a spot in the residence for a fair rate. The only negative i would have to say is the toilet, though creative in how it is done there isn't great privacy so be prepared to really get to know your spouse if you don't already on bathroom noises🤣 Overall don't walk, RUN to this beautiful condo located in the best part of Waikiki you will not regret it! Thank you Jan for making our 10 year anniversary so awesome, it is more than appreciated!!!

This is a small unit, but it is thoughtfully designed and beautifully finished. Gorgeous location. Jan was a fantastic host: very responsive to the few minor bumps at check in. We loved every day here. (PS aside from the obvious beauty, the mattress is excellent!)

This penthouse is in a great location, a short walk down the road from the hustle of Waikiki. We did miss a lanai for relaxing outside but there’s a wonderful area behind the building to relax in lawn chairs and watch the ocean. Kaimana Beach is the closest beach and it is now our favorite! The penthouse is super clean and provides all the necessities. Jan is a great host, super informative and responsive. Thanks for a great stay!

What a wonderful place to lay your head after a day of adventuring on Oahu. The views are beautiful, especially the unobstructed view of Diamond Head at sunrise, and the views of the ocean from both sides of the room. Kapi`olani Park and the Dillingham Fountain are just steps from the hotel. The ocean is accessible from a nice outdoor patio area. Two stunning restaurants are within walking distance from. Waikiki, shops and even the Zoo is nearby. The room is impeccably clean and Jan is a wonderful host. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and will be stay here again.
