Our second stay with Hawaiian Pardise Retreats, and the stay was very enjoyable and without incident. In such a large building, the security was present, the pool welcoming and the cleanliness. Very good. At the price point we had, this was a great deal.the central locality gave us access to Waikiki highlights and every form of transportation allowing us access to all island tourist highlights. Thank you Chelsea for your attention to detail.

Always a nice place to stay

Were a bit disapointed as not told about pool till arrival would have liked to been informed sooner so as we could find somewhere else with one. Not advised when arrived water was off & when back on had a terrible time with shower which was finally fixed. Kitchen very cramped and on a whole nothing like the pictures we viewed. Airconditioner very noisy only plus at least the TV was in english

Phenomenal location, close to everything in Waikiki .....

Aloooooha!We have just arrived home after phenomenal 14 days in paradise....After adjusting to the initial shock of staying on 35 floor of 49 or some floor building, we entered in very cosy and very clean studio that had everything we needed for our fantastic vocation. We entered into small kitchenette area that had full size fridge, sink , microwave , toaster , toaster oven, cattle, coffee maker (with coffee and tea for first morning) and counter top range we ordered in advance (25$ one time fee as studio does not come with stove or stove top ). Kitchenette had all necessary dishes and cookware( all in good shape), salt, pepper, olive oil and dish soap . Bathroom had one full set and few extra towels . you need to bring or buy beach towels, shampoo and soap. Bed was big, comfortable, clean . sheets were plenty enough for cover at night. Balcony provided the most spectacular view of Honolulu.....Ala Wai / canal, mountains to right, ocean to left, and looking forward were tops of other Honolulu buildings and spectacular view of Friday night fireworks.One word PHENOMENAL VIEW worth every penny. Balcony had table,chairs, lamp, two beach chairs and short board. Building had security guard so you had to have key to get inside the building, elevators were quick in each direction. Building has small store were you can buy many things if you do not want to go to bigger stores. Pool,BBQes, coin laundry,gym were available on 6th floor but we did not spend any time there as beaches are what we like....we meet with Gerry or Jerry who provided us with the keys and basic instructions. We did not have any issues that required us to call him again so it was sweet and short meet with him. Overall we LOVED IT!!! We are going to try and get to the same place next time we go to PARADISE! Only issue was PARKING! 25 $ per day but if you are lucky as we were you can park along Ala Wai street for free. Make sure you move your car on Friday and Monday at 8:30.

These are the friendliest Aloha people I have worked with ever.

The only difficulty was trying yo find the office. You need a key fob to make the elevator work. Security helped me without a problem.

Another good experience in 2013

Although this unit was in a great location we were not overly impressed with what it offered. We hated the bathroom as it needs upgrade so badly but mostly is teeny tiny beyond comfort. There was only one beach chair so we had to purchase a chair, that we left behind. We also had to purchase beach towels as those offered were small and threadbare. Amanda was lovely and so helpful but we would never take this place again! Sorry but lacking in basic comforts. We travel a lot and this place might get a 5 out of 10!

Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!

We have stayed at the Island Colony for the last seven years and have been taken care of very well in all aspects. Our expectations have been met and we appreciate the improvements being made to the property each year.

This was our third time at Island Colony, the second time at Unit #3512. We definitely will return. The chairs were rather dir

As for the kitchen, it could use a new burners. The current ones are rusty and very slow. Also, the carpets need to be shampooed and the kitchen utensils sorted out and completed wherever necessary.
