Waterfront vacation rentals in Hawaii

Will rebook Timmy's place again when we go back to Hawaii next year. There's a lot of restaurants that are walking distance. Waikiki beach is about 10-15 mins walk. Its paid to park in the garage but theres free parking spots near the canal (if you get lucky, it gets filled up pretty fast.) There's also plenty of equipments you can use when you go to the beach so you don't need to buy/rent when you get there. The living room area has a stunning view outside and the balcony is a nice place to wind down after a hectic day. We didn't go to the 6th floor but it has the pool, gym, and convenience store. Highly recommended!

Great condo, great location. I really enjoyed my stay and even extended another day. Will look to book again my next visit.

My girlfriend and I stayed here: The beach is her happy place and this place has 3 views of gorgeous water: The Marina, Lagoon and Beach shores Enjoyed some hawaiian Kona coffee in the morning Very close to Ala Moana Mall which is great 👍 A short 5 min walk to the beach/lagoon and this place has plenty of great beach gear ... It was really easy to navigate the area for out of towners ... We loved this place. It felt like a home away from home ... Nice spacious room and comfortable furniture ... The decor makes it very welcoming and authentic My gf really enjoyed coming here for her birthday. It was a great place. She got to be at the beach all day ... A dream vacation spot!

Great place for our family vacation. Super close to a lot of restaurants and shops. Very short drive to the beach or walkable. Wonderful host! Was very attentive to anything we had questions about.

Great stay in this very clean condo. The place is stocked with everything you need and is located in an amazing location. The balcony view is beautiful. Highly recommend staying here for anyone visiting the area. Plenty of parking if you are renting a car.

Staying at Kona Magic Sands is just amazing! Abra’s unit is one of the best! Very clean and has everything we needed. We love have a unit with a lanai and this one did not disappoint. We love being able to just walk to the beach next door. Abra provided everything we needed to enjoy our time on the Big Island. I would definitely stay here again!

It was a great place to stay! Host was very responsive as well. I would come back again!!

Beautiful location and unit, made our Maui trip all the more lovely

The Whale House was even better than advertised! The location was easy to find and so beautiful! We used this as our home away from home to explore Volcanoes National Park, Punalu’u Black sand beach, Volcano winery, and multiple waterfalls. Our family also enjoyed relaxing, reading, and napping on the lanai and in the hammock swings. The garden out back was a delight to explore. The lava cliffs were also very cool!! David & Chrystal provided everything we needed and more! The kitchen was well equipped- we made several meals. The cooler and beach equipment came in handy when we visited the black sand beach. The bikes were also a nice bonus. We really never wanted to leave and would love to come back soon!

Pali Hale was pure magic. Perched on a cliff with breathtaking ocean views, the energy of the waves made for a serene, unforgettable stay. The home was spotless, with fresh sea breezes and subtle Hawaiian scents setting the perfect tone. Reading and meditating on the patios was a dream, and the hosts were incredibly responsive, providing great local guides. Thoughtful touches like music on arrival made it even more special. An ideal retreat for family—truly unforgettable!

This house is a beautiful gem in a very peaceful location. You can hear the birds and have a great view.

This place was fantastic. The view is amazing- ocean, stars, mountains, it literally has it all. It’s super family friendly, tons of stuff to help you if you are traveling with an infant, toys, yard, safe space, play pen— everything you could need. It’s in a great spot with beautiful beaches ten minutes away. The hosts are so incredible. We grilled out on the deck watching the stars, picked fruit in the yard, enjoyed Kona coffee. If you stay anywhere else on big island you are missing out. This is a must stay and an incredible experience. We will return ❤️

We loved our stay at Mary’s place! Although it was a little more remote than expected, we appreciated the access to the different beautiful beaches in the neighborhood. The snorkeling at Manini Beach was spectacular! Because we had our 8 month old granddaughter with us, we also spent a lot of time in the beautiful pool. The “glamping” aspect of our stay was fun and we enjoyed the sounds of nature, particularly our rooster alarm at the crack of dawn which certainly helped us get our days started. We would highly recommend Mary’s place and wouldn’t hesitate staying again when on the island.

This Airbnb is wonderful - even better than pictured. Everything felt luxurious, from the well-stocked kitchen with all the equipment we needed (including good, sharp knives! A rarity!), to beach supplies, to beautiful finishes and decor throughout. When we arrived, the cleaning staff had left fresh flowers and chocolates. We truly felt spoiled. The view from the porch was wonderful, right over the ocean and the pool below. The location was great as well - close to shops and restaurants and the beach. We only wish we could have stayed longer!

This is a beautiful location with a very calm and serene pond and Koi fish! It has a wonderful porch with lots of chairs, and the bathrooms are fantastic. You are right next to the ocean and can walk right over to experience the waves and the surf. And there is a gate at the end of the driveway that helps you feel secure. It’s a very nice home and I’m glad we chose it!

Iliahi gave us instructions and recommendations, also prepared the place well before our arrival. They were friendly and helpful. The place was exactly like what was shown on the site. It is right in front of the ocean. We enjoyed the stunning ocean view right from the balcony. Thanks, Iliahi!

The balcony was my favorite place on the island. The only thing that didn’t make this 100% was not having A/C. My advice is to stay busy and out of the condo during the day. It wasn’t too hot once the sun went down, but it was very hot after lunch-sunset. It was very spacious for my family of 5. The master suite’s light didn’t work and the fan was stuck on low. The vent fan in the upstairs bathroom didn’t work, so it got really stuffy when taking a shower. They do have 3 fans to use: one tower, 2 desk tops. Kitchen is fully stocked, & snorkels, boogie boards, beach towels, cooler, & 4 beach chairs (do not recline) were available. No need to pay for a snorkeling excursion to snorkel with turtles. We saw a ton from the balcony & snorkeled. There is access to ocean but not a sandy beach area. Tiny area at condo next door but high tide takes it away pretty early. Short walk to a sandy beach. Being on the west side, was peaceful but a good drive to different places. Debbie is really sweet!

We stayed in Honolulu for 8 days. The apartment and the location as described in the advertisement. The apartment is very well equipped. Communication was great, check-in quick and hassle-free. Recommended.

You cannot beat the view from this place. We had a few touristy day trips planned but did not go- instead opting to just relax. We saw whales flopping in the ocean, turtles swimming right in front of us and the RAINBOWS were amazing! The place is as described and pictured. It is a bit secluded but also close enough to get food/shop, etc. Perfect. They have all TV apps and the pay laundry is easy to use with the app they have. If I ever get to make my way back to Maui- I will definitely want to come back here.

Great host and an amazing place to stay. We’ll be back again!

Great condo away from tourist area but not far from restaurants and grocery stores. I like being in small building instead of big resort. Well stocked kitchen and furnishings up to date. Clean and quiet. Real hot tub with jets was nice after being out on excursions all day! Kristina was very responsive and helpful. The coffee grinder broke and she had on sent to me within an hour! I would definitely stay here again if I return to the big island again!

The condo was perfect for our stay! It was very spacious and had an amazing view of the harbor, especially at sunset. Watching the sun go down over the water from the condo was one of our favorite parts. It was so peaceful and beautiful. The laundry room was super convenient, and the location was perfect. We were within walking distance to most places in Waikiki, including the beach and lagoon. One of the highlights was watching the Friday night fireworks from the lanai. We had a perfect view without having to deal with the big crowds. The place also came with beach gear like towels, bodyboards, a wagon, and beach chairs, which made our beach days even better. We had an incredible time and would definitely stay here again!

A great place to stay!! Beautiful location, and quiet. the only downside was there was very little space to set toiletries, suitcases, etc. It was still very well worth the stay, though, and we really enjoyed it!

The view from the patio was breathtaking! The condo was spotless when we arrived and we found everything we needed for the stay. We had a question about the TV streaming and got a response quickly. The TV is set up for Netflix and Prime Video, but you need to log into your own own account so remember to bring your information. When we were there in the afternoon one day, a couple of big turtles came onto the small beach. If we had been there a week earlier, we could have seen the whales in the bay since it was time for them to head back north. We always found parking right outside the door. It was easy to get our parking permit. When we went into the office to get it, nobody was there but a basket with tags was available. Just fill out the form with your information and take one to use for the duration of your trip. We felt like the location of the condo was perfect for us. Four days gave us plenty of time to see the entire island.
