"Very nice for the price
This unit had everything we wanted for a very affordable price. The one thing to know is that the parking garage has a height limit of six feet which means it will not accommodate a full size suv. We had to exchange our suburban for a minivan in order to park. "

"Pleasantly pleased
Well, other than needing a little updating, and the elevator and no one could help us get another parking pass. Rudely stated we don't do this, and finder their office is in the parking garage. The stay was nice and quiet, View was great, Noises and sounds of Waikiki. Food, drink, shopping was within walking distance. Comfortable shoes. Our host was easy to communicate with, even to accommodated my request for later check out."

"Great location for a good price.
The condo was as advertised and was better than anticipated. The balcony allowed a partial view of the acean as well as diamond point. The only negative we experienced was that out of four elevators, only two were used most of the time. This resulted in waits as long 20 twenty minutes, and was somewhat disappointing. "

"OK, but not great
As described, but "dated". Unit was clean and functional. A dishwasher would have been nice. Elevators were very slow and overcrowded. One was was out of service during our entire stay with a second one not functioning on the last few days. Having to wait occasionally for over 10 minutes was very frustrating"

"Four night stay in Honolulu
The unit was fine for a short stay. The bed was comfortable and the shower was good. We did not cook while there, although the kitchen had all the basics, minus a kettle. The parking was good. The building itself is quite old and not the cleanest. Not all of the elevators were operating."

"Amazing location and well-kept unit
My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The unit is well taken care of, with modern upgrades to all the rooms and appliances. The location is great, being only a few blocks from a lot of popular places to visit, and most of the tour busses pick up and drop off at the hotel a block away. Everything was very clean and organized, and the management company is very responsive to any additional needs. We would definitely book another stay here if we visit again."

"Family Trip
This rental unit was exactly how it was described. It was comfortable for our family of four. The rental was nice and clean when we checked in. The view from the balcony was beautiful. The rental was walking distance to everything you need. I would definitely rent here again."

"Great location and free parking! 5⭐️
Great location and free parking is a plus! When at condo we walked everywhere and only used car during the day. Great food options very close! Grocery close if eating a few meals in. Air conditioning works extremely well! Quick responses back from Byron!"

"Fantastic place to stay!!
We stayed here for 5 nights. We found it to be very spacious and comfortable. It was clean, quiet and well stocked. Easy check in, comfy bed and close to restaurants, beach and shopping. You can easily walk or Uber. Same floor laundry. Byron was friendly, patient and helpful. There is a pool, bbq area and parking space. We would definitely stay here again!"

"A great choice for Waikiki!
Everything about this rental worked well and even better than expected. The apartment was complete with everything you could need. It was in a great location and even has a view of the water and the mountains. I highly recommend it."

"Great place just minutes from the beach
We had a wonderful stay in Waikiki. The condo was perfectly located 2 blocks from the beach, away from the busy foot traffic. The unit was clean and stocked with everything you need. It also included parking for 1 car, which is a huge plus in Waikiki. We would definitely stay there again. "

"A good budget option for Waikiki
If you are looking for a non-hotel option in Waikiki, we would certainly recommend the Waikiki Sunset#1004. The unit was a bit smaller than expected, but definitely functional for a family of 4. Kudos for the new pullout bed, but would highly encourage upgrading unit amenities for cooking and beach outings. "
Jul 16, 2022 - Vy V., Tustin, CA
"Perfect location
This rental was perfect for our family of 4. Our children are both under 5 so being so close to the beach was ideal. We used the beach chairs found in the rental and the kitchen was well equipped. Laundry was close by and we appreciated that there was detergent available in the unit. Everything was an easy walk and we were quickly right at home. We enjoyed spending time on the balcony, the view was great. The pull out bed in the living room is less than ideal, the mattress is terrible and thin. That would be my only complaint. We had planned on utilizing this bed but it was so uncomfortable that we all just piled in the king bed. Hopefully the pull out gets an upgrade in the near future. Had our kids been any older, it would have been an issue. I guess I would also add that the security personnel on duty in the parking garage for the last few days of our stay was TERRIBLE. In just our first visit to the garage we watched her aggressively leave her booth and yell at three separate families. The parking pass we were given had a space number assigned on it and when we asked her about it to clarify, she berated and yelled at my husband while marching towards him and waving her arms around. We observed similar behavior for 3 days and let the front desk staff know. All in all, we would rent this unit again in a heartbeat with the hopes of a couch pull out upgrade and different staff manning the garage."

"Excellent stay
We really enjoyed our stay here. The unit was spotless and had lovely views of Diamond Head and swathes of ocean view as well. Location was just a short walk to the beach and I appreciated the free parking"

"Not Perfect but a Satisfactory Accomodation
On the plus side—many things—good Wi-Fi, good A/C, appliances work well, plenty of towels, reasonable number of dishes, beach gear included (chairs, small board), clean, check-in procedure was very quick and we got good attention from Byron who delivered our credentials.
We also had a car breakdown in the parking structure. Our property managers were very responsive and offered us time to work out getting the car out of the structure after we checked out.
There are some maintenance issues that we mostly ignored:
1.) Towel bars are loose and pulling away from the wall over toilet and on opposite wall.
2.) Toilet paper holder is not well fastened to cabinet. Single support design is unfortunate for public accommodation.
3.) One of two bathroom GFCI receptacles—left side—does not work. Seems like reset and test buttons are stuck.
4.) Clock in bedroom is not usable. We set it before we leave for the day, but when we return, it’s hours off. May need battery backup for momentary power interruptions, but bigger problem is the way entire wall of receptacles is wired to switch by door. May be convenient, but switch turns off everything on that wall.
5.) No issue for us, but there is a patch of wall in bath that is missing top coat of paint.
6.) Fold away bed is uncomfortable “hammock” construction, not one using a comfortable mattress. Bed in BR is, however, very comfortable.

After getting to Hawaii we found our original rental not up to par. I found this location and within an hour we were booked and moved in. We couldn't have been more pleased!"

"Hidden Gem in Waikiki
Clean spacious condo rental 2 blocks from the beach. Condo had everything we needed. Perfect price point and really glad we were not in A hotel because Covid restrictions made restaurants difficult to operate and accommodate. This rental and Capt Cook properties are a new mist for us when we visit the islands. "
Jul 18, 2021 - Michael D., Chula Vista, CA
"Excellent!
We stayed at this condo in January 2020 and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The unit is big and the pictures are accurate. Having a kitchen was very handy and the parking was also a plus. Linens were provided, unit was clean and bed was comfy. Very close to Waikiki beach and about a 10 minute walk to the International Market. Having a ABC nearby was also very handy. I would definitely stay here again.
Captain Cook was also very attentive. We didn’t have to contact them during our stay as we didn’t have any issues. The only suggestion is to not have to call as soon as we land. While I appreciate the attentiveness and Bryon was super nice, I did incur long distance charges and I found that instructions to access the unit was already provided."

"Review of Unit 1004 at Waikiki Sunset
The condo unit was just like it was presented in the advertised pictures. The Waikiki Sunset is a bit dated, but in good condition and has many positives. Good location...a short walk to a good sandy beach, restaurants and ABC store. The mini-mart on 5th floor is handy for grabbing a quick snack. Having parking included in the rental is a definite plus. Also, having a property manager to contact in case of problems is also a plus. The only problem we had was a low battery on the door lock, but the property manager quickly changed the battery for us. The pool area is nice and clean. Unit 1004 is clean and well-stocked, including beach chairs and fully stocked kitchen. The king bed might be a bit firm for some people, although I slept well in it. The only real negative was that the laundry rooms were closed due to building maintenance work. I spent many hours searching for a condo in Waikiki and I was happy with unit 1004 at the Waikiki Sunset."

"not a fan of the extra fees
good location, 3 blocks from the beach. The area seemed ok, and security on site. The unit was large enough and nicely appointed. Very comfy bed and a decent pullout couch. Full sized bathroom and having some beach stuff(chairs, snorkels etc was a great bonus. Check-in and follow-up from the agent was very good and having a parking pass was excellent.
The only thing we didn't like was the extra set of fees, if we rented privately, most don't have the "insurance" fee"
Mar 27, 2019 - Silas D., Saskatoon, SK
"ok stay
The property is updated, nice kitchen. Sofa could be cleaned or replaced, smells dirty. Tv in the bedroom did not work. obtaining a parking pass was a little tricky as the previous renter had taken it home with them. We ended up paying for parking one day, when we asked for a parking permit the staff wanted to know how long we would be staying inside the apt. On the last day of our stay we had to drive to the captain cook office to request a refund for the parking situation. Not a big deal, but none the less I didn't feel we should have to handle this while on vacation. The receptionist did not understand what I was explaining to him. upon our arrival home we received an email explaining our credit card would be refunded for the parking fees."

"WAIKIKI VACATION
CAPTAIN COOKS RENTALS WERE AWESOME. I LOVED THE FACT THAT THEY HAD A TOUCH KEY PAD, FREE PARKING, GREAT SERVICE, AFFORDABLE RATES, AND A QUICK WALK TO THE BEACH. THE CONDO OFFERED EVERYTHING WE NEEDED FOR OUR STAY. I WISH THAT THEY COULD PROVIDE A PLACE FOR US IN MAUI FOR NEXT YEAR. I RECCOMMEND CAPTAIN COOK TO EVERYONE. WHEN I COME BACK TO WAIKIKI. IM USING THEM AGAIN. LOVED IT!"

"nice stay in downtown Waikiki
The property was very well maintained and well located. We particularly like the porch which gave a pretty nice view of the mountains and the water. There is a run down looking building right next door but if you don't look directly down it is fine.
The lobby itself is a little tired (and the elevators kept breaking down) but it didn't affect our stay.
We could walk to the beach and a lot of restaurants.
The unit was very well stocked and had everything we could need. The furnishings were clean and comfortable.
The management company was very responsible. "

"Overall a fairly pleasant stay
Advantages:
- Central location. 1 Block to major bus stops. 2 blocks to beach (and main restaurant/shopping strip)
- Hotel contains pool, tennis court, small grocery store which includes some rental equipment such as snorkels etc
- Bed was large king size and comfortable
- TV good reception with satellite channels
- Free Wi-Fi with good signal
- Nice kitchen - fully stocked for cooking own food
- Nice balcony
- Good air-conditioning system, slightly noisy
- Free beach chairs, umbrella, beach towels, boogie boards, and beach mats to use.
- Double glazed windows so no road noise.
- Laundromat on each floor - however couldn't download app to pay for as only allowed on US sim cards. was $1.50 and only accepts quarters.
- Looks like couch is a fold-out bed
Disadvantages:
- Cotton shower curtain (floor got very wet, curtain never really dried)
- Air conditioner slightly loud (no bother to us but if you're a light sleeper it may affect)
- Lighting not great - no roof lighting, only lamps which didn't really provide a great deal of lighting, especially in the bedroom. No easy switch for lounge area lights - had to use lamp directly.
- Kitchen has zero condiments (no salt, pepper, sauce, oil for cooking, washing powder, etc). Did have a starter tea and coffee kit.
Overall was a great experience. No "woman's touch" to apartment to make it homely. For the price, it was what we expected. However, if we were to do it again, we would probably pay a bit extra for something a little bit more polished."

"Great stay at Waikiki Sunset #1004
I stayed here for a week with my wife and 18-month old child. I really like this unit, which has upgraded appliances, a very comfortable king bed, and CENTRAL A/C. There are plenty of pots and pans and plates for cooking, so we were able to invite friends over for dinner, which was great. The unit has some nice beach gear (chairs, umbrella, etc.) available for use. The 6th floor has a pool and bbq area.
Byron checked us in and was responsive to our phone calls. We did have an issue with the bathroom on check-in, which had a clogged toilet and clogged bathtub drain, but I was able to unclog the toilet myself and Byron came by the second day to clean out the bathtub drain. Also there is a small leak from the shower head that needs to be fixed."

"My 2017 spring vacation in Waikiki
I've stayed in the Waikiki Sunset many times. The rental unit I was in on this trip was very well equipped, clean, quiet and also had a nice view. The representatives from Captain Cook that I dealt with were all quite helpful. All in all, it was what I look for in a vacation rental experience. I will be contacting Captain Cook again when I next return to Waikiki."

"Great Deal!
Excellent place to stay! The property's condition is slightly more dated than the pictures show, but everything is clean and comfortable. Location is great and easy free parking is a bonus. I saw a lot of reviews about the slow elevators, but I didn't find them too bad. There are 4 elevators that service the building. From the Lobby they are usually available right away. The property manager was very responsive to all my inquiries. Thanks for a great stay!"

"Great location w/parking
agent was very professional and attended to our every need. We would rent through Captain Cook again.
The rental unit was adequate with all of the kitchen equipment needed for your stay. The bathroom electrical outlets needed reset and the door needed something to stop it from closing all the time. The building is definitely older but well kept up. The four elevators on each floor take a long time to arrive because of the number of floors. Always found a parking place on the third level of the garage. The parking attendant woman is not the most friendly person to deal with or ask questions of. "

Had no complaints with the room. First night air bed went flat so we rung Property manager who had it replaced with a brand new one pronto.

The condo was just as the listing and photos showed. The bed was very comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped. It was an easy walk to the beach and shops. We had a car and the parking arrangements were great for easy in and out. "
Apr 15, 2016 - Mary S., Rocklin, CA
"Great location and place to stay
This location is only 3 blocks from the beach towards the end of Waikiki. The place is also only a few blocks from the Zoo. There are many restaurants and shops that are within walking distance. There's an ABC Store on every block so you can pick up essentials.
The condo was clean upon arrival and the central AC works great. The condo faces the beach and has a little patio set. The sun shines into the condo in the afternoon but we didn't mind. The parking garage is attached to the building.
The living room in the condo is spacious. The TV has a lot of channels. Channel 56 provides a guide but we wish there was a print out telling us the channel list. There's also a DVD player provided. I believe the lobby has a machine where you can rent DVDs.
The kitchen is fully stocked with some dish soap, a sponge, small/big trash bags, paper towels, zip lock bags, foil, plates, etc. We were able to cook breakfast every morning which was great.
The bedroom has a king bed. There are black-out curtains which is also a plus. The AC is connected between the bedroom and living room so the bedroom gets cooler faster than the living room. There were plenty of hangers provided as well as extra sheets, pillows and blankets in the closet and a vacuum.
The bathroom has a full size tub. The bathroom door wouldn't stay open on it's own so we used the garbage can to prop it open. A wall blow dyer and a regular one are provided. Some toilet paper and bar soap was under the sink. The bathroom closet had the following supplies: bath towels, 4 beach towels, 3 beach chairs, a mini hard cooler, 3 bag coolers, bucket and shovel beach toys, laundry basket, broom, etc.
There's a mini mart in the building which has a little of everything (food, drinks, alcohol, beach supplies, etc). There is a heated pool and tennis courts in the building as well.
Overall we will definitely come back. The place and location were perfect and we didn't "

"Condo i really enjoyed to stay in
We had a great time in Hawaii and the Condo offered all we needed. Great kitchen with all needed supplies, sleeping sofa and fantastic and comfortable bed, couldn't say a bad word about this room! Room was clean and had all necessities! Pool area was nice but mostly very cold as it was on the 6th floor and it was quite windy most days. Unfortunately the staff from Waikiki Sunset wasn't that friendly at all and we didn't feel welcomed, only due the the reason that we booked a private condo in the complex, which shouldn't make a difference in my eyes, as we still were paying guests and didn't want to have extra favours.
All in all, i give the room a thumbs up but the hotel itself just an ok."

Two excellent weeks of sun and surf in Waikiki were made perfect by our stay in a lovely condo that served most of our needs. The king-bed was comfortable, the kitchen included all of the usual/expected appliances and utensils, the view from the lanai was super, and we made good use of the TVs (one in the living room & one in the bedroom), the phone and the internet. Parking was a definite plus and so was the easy access to the beach. If available, we will pick this place again on our next trip. "

"5 minutes from the beach!
Our family stayed at this condo for a week in early September and had a great time! The unit was well priced, and the best part was how close it was to the Waikiki beach. There were some cheaper units in the area, but it would have doubled our walking time to the beach, and I doubt we would have gone as much.
The unit was clean, and up to date. It's not fancy, but for a family with small kids, that is not what I was looking for in a place to stay. We wanted something comfortable, within close walking distance to the beach, and this unit delivered!
The kitchen had everything we needed in terms of dishes and cooking utensils. We were able to buy groceries and eat our meals in the condo about 70% of the time which saved us quite a bit of money. It is about a 5 minute drive to Safeway, which is also great.
The king size bed worked out perfect for us. We have two kids under 4 and they both slept in the bed with us. We found that easier than pulling out the sofa bed every night. It was also nice having the bedroom separate from the living room area so we could put kids to bed at their usual bedtime.
Having parking included was very nice. I'm sure it's true with most parking garages like this, but the spaces and area to park is pretty tight so you have to be really careful getting in and out. The spaces can also be limited at times, but we were always able to find a place. Usually it just means walking a little bit further, which was never a big inconvenience.
The property manager, Byron, was very nice and helpful in getting us checked in. I also misplaced a key (which was later found) and had to call him for help. I was quite embarrassed and sorry to have to call since this was after 8pm and surely interrupting his evening, but he graciously came out within 10 minutes to get us back into the condo. What service!
Overall, I would definitely recommend this condo to others, and if we ever have the chance to visit Waikiki "

I used the kitchen every day, and it was fully stocked. The location was perfect, a couple of blocks from the beach. Every morning we sat out on the lanai and enjoyed a cup of coffee while looking at Diamond Head and the beach.

"We had a great experience dealing with Captain Cook.
We were very happy with the building, the unit and the service we had. We had a little issue with the phone and garbage disposal and things were looked after immidiately. Also being so near the beach, church and many neat restaraunts was a bonus. The bus at the corner of the street was also a benifit to us sd we use it a lot. I would definately recommend Captain Cook Rentals. The staff at Captain Cook are very professional would recommend them to anyone."

"A Great Place to Stay
This is a great place to stay for two people. This location makes for very easy access in and out of Waikiki. It is only one block to Waikiki beach. The laundry rooms on each floor are very convenient. The only disappointment with this room was the lack of a dishwasher. The room itself was well stocked, very clean and well kept. We would definitely stay there again. "

Overall very good, the only negative thing was no where to hang beach towels to dry. We were unable to use balcony due to constuction"

"lacking basic condo living
Location was good. I was disappointed there was no dish washer when there was a space left open in the lower cabinets for it. Washer Dryer not in unit is something if I have known about to begin with I would have never rented this unit. The bath tub wasn't draining properly off and on during stay. The king bed was comfortable. Front desk was friendly and helpful even though they were not renting this unit. "

"Great place to stay at the edge of Waikiki!
Property was ample space for us, only 2 blocks from Waikiki beach, but situated at the eastern edge of Kuhio so wasn't too noisy (amidst the big hotels). Short walk to Mac 24/7 and Kuhio Beach Park, and short drive to local favorites like Ono's, Halili's, Zippy's, and Leonard's. Management crew was great as well. Thanks!"

"Waikiki Sunset unit 1004
The condo was excellent, it was clean and located in a very central location with respect to waikiki. Liked it so much we have tenatively booked it for 2013. The owner called and asked if we had any concerns that we needed addressed. Had a great time "

"A great place in a great location.
Having been a former resident (kama'aina) of Oahu, I may be a tad picky in reviewing places where I now stay as a tourist. However, even with that being said, this place was great, and the location excellent. My little lady liked Waikiki Beach, and it was a short walk away. She enjoyed shopping along Kalakaua (the main drag in Waikiki),and that, too, was a very short walk away. I liked being so close to Kapahulu Ave., which made for extremely easy coming and going from Waikiki to see other parts of the island. Because of my little lady's fear of heights, we stayed in this relatively low 10th floor unit, knowing other surrounding buildings would be higher. However, none of those taller buildings are all that close to this condo, and there was no feeling of being closed in at all. In fact, while hardly a panoramic view of the ocean, we could easily watch the surfers in the morning from the living room and lanai, and the sunsets were great. This place was quite "comfortable," and made us feel at home. Our (my) only very minor complaint was with all of the fry-pans and other kitchen amenities, there was not even one pot for warming up soup, etc. We left that comment, so perhaps by now, this $10 problem has been rectified. All in all, thought, four thumbs up (two each from the two of us). We HIGHLY recommend this unit and the rental company."

"Nice Place, Good Value for Waikiki
This is our second stay in the #1004 unit of the Waikiki Sunset. Although it's clean and very, very well equipped (lacking only a dishwasher), the bed linens and quilt are getting worn. Be careful of the pots and pans - there were some screws loose or missing that hold the handles to the pot or pan. That's probably fixed - Paul, the manager, is conscientious and we left a note. BTW, we and previous left seasonings, coolers, and other items. Use them in good health and enjoy your stay!"

"Loved Hawaii!!!
The only thing I noticed is there was not one pillow case in the place. This may have just been the cleaning people not putting them in there. The place is great, nice view, and short walk to beach or downtown. "

"Great Stay In Waikiki
After 25 years of renting holiday homes in Hawaii, we have found one that deserves a five star! Everyone from Captain Cook, especially Suzanne, were terrific, and not enough can be said about the wonderful condo at the Sunset. It was beautiful; well kept and managed, and it offered us a comfortable home away from home. We look forward to returning in the future. It was a great location and offered us an outstanding view. It truly offered us the aloha spirit!"

"HAPPY COSTUMER
First time as a "condo" renter.(always stayed on a hotel). Parking is a little bit too tight especially if you come in late. Need to clean the furniture cushions (wash or vacuum good!)PAUL, the guy who meet us was the best, makes us feel very welcome. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!"

"Waik Sunset 1004 - March Vacation
My wife and I went to Oahu in late March 2011, stayed for 9 days at Waikiki Sunset. This was my second time in Oahu, but my wife's first. Location was excellent, we had access to all tourist activities, but we spent most time traveling all over the island. Apartment was perfect, for location, cleanliness, access to major highways and beach fronts. Best thing was having free parking included in rental cost, which was more than competitive for honolulu, with better amenities. Library around the corner, had DVD rentals for $1 per movie, lots of selections. Would highly recommend this location to any traveler, and we plan on staying there again. Last, Captain Cook personnel are helpful, very friendly and accommodating. Thank you."

"Our contact person ( Barb Sanderson) was wonderful, she provided us with just the perfect accomadation. The propertey manager was so helpful with providing us with Wi-Fi connection. The unit itself is very well appointed and clean.
We had a great time in Honolulu and our accomations were extremely good. We would definitely wish to come back to Honolulu and stay in Unit 1004 at the Waikiki Sunset."

"Sunset1004
After flying all day, we wanted a cold beer. The fellow who showed us the unit did not know where the nearest store was to get a 6-pack. Turns out it was in the same building, 4 floors down (a nice, albeit expensive convenience store. He also didn't know where the laundry room or trash shoot was. It would be nice to include some local info in the unit such as maps, museums, events, activities, etc."

"Waikiki Condo +++
Pros:
- Very well equipped condo & kitchen
- Very clean and well maintained
- Excellent king bed/mattress
- Friendly and helpful staff/managers
- decent location
Cons:
- the sofa/bed mattress has seen better days (but there is an inflatable mattress that is great for the kids)
- The Sunset is situated on one of Honolulu's windiest corners
- the elevators are slow and on a bad weekend you may wait 10+ mins for one
- only 2 BBQ's, but wasn't really an issue
Overall - will book again!"

Everyone at captain cook was great! The condo was extremely clean and in a good location. But the pull out bed was uncomfortable and the main bed had a giant soft spot. the mattress needs to be replaced. "

"loved it, couple of comments
As was represented to me, the unit was very tastefully decorated and quite well equipped. Capt. Cook reps were/are very helpful and consistent (Thanks for everything, Barbara!). Only a couple of comments. The sliding door may need to be oiled, it is had to open when compared with unit 3036. The large bed was very comfortable, however, would love the mattress replaced before going back down in July? It has a large 'divot' where one person(s) habitually there's kind of a valley on the left side (when facing the bed). I kept rolling into it!
Thanks!
Brian"
