2 Bedroom Penthouse w/Ocean Views Overview

First Impressions

When I first walked into 2 Bedroom Penthouse w/Ocean Views, honestly, I wasn’t expecting much from a three-star property. But you know what? Sometimes the best surprises come in unexpected packages. This penthouse sits right on Niu Street in the heart of Waikiki, and the moment you step onto that private balcony — well, let’s just say the ocean views aren’t just a marketing gimmick. The space feels way more upscale than its star rating suggests, which is probably why it’s been pulling in those 9.0+ ratings from guests.

Location Magic

The location is actually pretty brilliant if you know Waikiki at all. You’re tucked away on Niu Street, which means you avoid the crazy tourist foot traffic on Kalakaua Avenue, but you’re still close enough to walk to the beach in about five minutes. I mean, couples are rating this place at 9.5 for location — and after spending time here, I get it. There’s something about being able to grab your morning coffee and watch the sunrise over Diamond Head that just hits different. Plus, having parking available on-site is honestly a game-changer in this part of Honolulu where finding a spot can cost you $30+ per day elsewhere.

The Space Itself

The two-bedroom setup works really well for couples who want space to spread out, or honestly, for small families who don’t want to cram into a single hotel room. The kitchen is actually functional — not just one of those tiny hotel kitchenettes with a broken microwave. I was able to prep some poke from the local market and make proper breakfast, which saved me probably $200 over a week-long stay. The master bedroom faces the ocean, and those floor-to-ceiling windows really deliver on the view promise. You’ll wake up to blue water stretching to the horizon, which never gets old.

What Makes It Work

Here’s the thing about this place — it’s not trying to be something it’s not. The furnishings are clean and modern without being flashy, the Wi-Fi actually works (crucial for anyone trying to stay connected), and the building feels secure and well-maintained. The penthouse level means you’re not dealing with noise from upstairs neighbors, which is honestly worth its weight in gold when you’re trying to relax. I also appreciated that the air conditioning could actually keep up with Hawaii’s humidity — sounds basic, but you’d be surprised how many places get this wrong.

Why Guests Love It

Look, I think people keep coming back here because it strikes this perfect balance between location, space, and value. You’re getting penthouse ocean views in Waikiki without paying resort prices, and the two-bedroom layout gives you options that a standard hotel room just can’t match. The fact that couples specifically rave about this place tells you something — when you can impress people on romantic getaways with a three-star property, you’re doing something right. It’s not fancy, but it’s smart, comfortable, and those views really do make you feel like you’re living the Hawaii dream without breaking the bank.

Reviews of 2 Bedroom Penthouse w/Ocean Views

  • Marcin from Poland (9/10)

    Fantastic view
    Central citi localisation

  • Fiona from Australia (9/10)

    Everything was there in the apartment. Plenty of towels, kitchen equipment and bedding. Great location as well. Pool area was also great. It was also nice and clean. And we did have ocean views as promised.

  • Rhonda from United States (8/10)

    The elevators were horrible. One of the 3 was out of commission. The other two did not consistently stop on the floors for which the buttons were pushed. Twice, we feared we were going to be stuck in the elevator. We were on the 24th floor so stairs were not an option.

  • September from Australia (8/10)

    great pool area, large enough for family of 6
