Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Waikiki Beach

I have stayed in this property once before and loved it then too. However this time - I had to make a last minute booking as other air bnb accom fell through on the day and was stuck. The team were incredible, so responsive, had me sorted and in within 2 hours of first reaching out. Do not spend your money staying at old run down hotels on the beach, the view from the balcony alone here is worth it, music playing at the cafe downstairs, palm trees swaying against the beach all visible from the balcony and from the bed. Has everything you need - drip coffee for the morning, can fit ice in the freezer for some lazy sunset balcony drinks, comfortable bed (I always travel with my own pillow so can’t comment on the pillows), air con worked beautifully. Location cannot be beaten one block from pretty much everything. Do yourself a favour, don’t read any more reviews, book this place and happy happy Hawaiian holidays.

I had a great stay at this beautiful apartment! The space was clean, well-maintained, and exactly as described. Check-in was super easy with clear instructions provided ahead of time. Charlie was communicative and helpful throughout the stay. I would definitely recommend this place and would happily stay here again! Mahalo nui!

We loved this place! It was definitely one of the more reasonable cost rentals in the Lanikai neighborhood but it didn’t disappoint. A few things of note: - the appliances are high end KitchenAide and Bosch. The cooktop is a two burner induction that you can put away when not in use. Toaster oven as well. Compact dishwasher and fridge is a one drawer fridge/ one drawer freezer that fits under counter - ample beach towels. Also beach chairs and umbrellas. - the pool was wonderful - less than 10 min walk to Lanikai Beach - do the pillbox hike up the ridge behind you if you want a good workout! We loved our week here. Always planned to cook out on the Weber grill but didn’t end up doing so. The patio was awesome at the end of each day and for morning coffee. Neighborhood was safe. Met the pest control guy and the pool guy while we were here- both really friendly. Would definitely choose this place again.

We had a great stay in Kailua! The house is very comfortable, and it’s only a couple minutes walk to the Kalamas beach access. When not at the beach (with the chairs, towels, boogie boards, and toys provided) or eating Island Snow, the kids loved playing in the yard and the play room, and watching movies in the living room. We ended up staying mostly in Kailua and Lanikai for beaches, shopping, and restaurants, with one morning at the botanical gardens in Kaneohe and one at Haunama Bay, and an afternoon at Bishop Museum after check-out. We’d love to stay here again, in this well-appointed and clean house with hosts who responded to our questions and provided clear guidance on the check-in and check-out process.

Hilton Village is easy. Has everything you could need or want so you don’t spend time driving all over in Honolulu traffic! We wanted to arrive and park it! This place allowed us to do just that!!

Brooke’s place was perfect for my partner and I plus daughter and niece. We were able to cook in the kitchen with sharp knives other good kitchen amenities but also appreciated that there were plenty of dining out options very close by. Kailua and adjacent beaches are clean, friendly and beautiful! It felt safe for the teenagers to spend hours on their own. All around great experience with Brooke being very easy to reach and helpful with recommendations for hikes, shops and restaurants.

Shirley's place had everything we needed and was a wonderful place to be for our vacation. Shirley was easy to communicate with and friendly. The space was clean and comfortable. The kitchen is tiny home sized (as pictured) and it had everything we needed to cook meals during our stay. We would definitely stay again in the future!

Idyllic location, comfy and cozy, private sanctuary of a home and beach while still walking/biking distance to lovely local markets, food, book stores, etc. Misty Ann was such a responsive and helpful host, went above and beyond for us! She had boogie board, beach chairs, sand toys available; my young daughters and I had a wonderful time, and would return back and recommend 1000%.

Located at a great location. So many places you can walk to. Easy check in. Loved the patio and hot tub. Overall had a great stay and would definitely recommend to others.

We had a great stay. The place is cozy, has a great view and amenities and supplies. It is in great location, close enough to everything in waikiki but away enough to not deal with the busy and louder areas. Great host who was very informative, accomodating, detailed and gave alot of recommendations.

We had a wonderful stay at David’s condo! The view and balcony were our favorite as we spent each morning and evening there. Extremely close and walkable to the beach, restaurants, grocery stores or anything else you could need. Parking was extremely convenient. The condo itself was clean, spacious and looked just like the photos! David and his co-hosts were all extremely responsive, helpful, proactive on check in and check out instructions and available for questions or concerns at any time!! We had a wonderful stay in Waikiki and would absolutely recommend David’s condo or stay again in the future!

Yuan's place was exactly what I needed for my stay.

Great place ! Highly recommend. Carlo was super helpful with everything ! Will definitely stay again when I return

We had a very nice stay in Jared’s place. We had everything we needed, it was clean and comfortable. The views were also great! Easily walkable to the beach and shops.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Charles’s place in Waikiki! The view was truly breathtaking — we found ourselves spending so much time just taking it all in from the spacious lanai. Everything in the unit was spotless and well-maintained, and it was stocked with so many useful and thoughtful items that made our stay incredibly easy and comfortable. The bed was very cozy, and you could tell a lot of care went into making the space feel like a home away from home. Charles’s instructions were clear, precise, and extremely helpful — check-in and everything else went smoothly thanks to his attention to detail. We will definitely be staying here again the next time we’re in Waikiki. Highly recommended!

The condo is exactly as it’s pictured. Nice touches with coffee, water, chocolates, beach towels and chairs. Comfortable beds, well-stocked kitchen and nicely renovated. It’s a very walkable location with great food options. The balcony, with a view of the ocean and Diamond Head, was a great spot for morning coffee.

Stayed for a weekend; great location, were able to walk everywhere up to the Diamond Head park / Aquarium, not to mention 5min to Queen's Beach for snorkeling. Didn't have any noise issues despite the nighlife around. The place was clean and comfortable, matched the description. Would definitely stay again.

I stayed at Jayden’s apartment in Waikiki and had a genuinely great experience. The apartment was clean, well-maintained, and exactly like the photos, maybe even better in person. It was spacious, comfortable, and had everything I needed for a relaxing stay. The highlight for me was the view, it was stunning. The location couldn’t have been better. It’s right in the heart of Waikiki, so getting to the beach, restaurants, shops, and local attractions was super convenient. Despite being close to everything, the apartment felt quiet and private, which was great for winding down after a day out. Jayden was a great host: clear communication, easy check-in, and quick to respond to any questions. Everything was smooth from start to finish. Overall, this was one of the best Airbnb experiences I’ve had!

We stayed at the Pacific Monarch from May 20–28 and had a great experience. The unit was clean, spacious, and well-stocked with everything we needed for the beach—including umbrellas, backpack chairs, and boogie boards, which were incredibly convenient. While the listing mentioned an ocean view, it's worth noting that it’s more of a partial side ocean view—but still lovely to wake up to. Check-in was seamless, and we appreciated the ease of having on-site parking, which cost $35/day. One of our favorite features was the rooftop area. It offers fantastic panoramic views, a nice pool, a small jacuzzi, and even a sauna and lounge area—great spots to relax after a day out. The location is unbeatable. We were walking distance from lots of amazing food spots, and everything we needed was close by. A special shout-out to IYASUME Musubi, located right next to the hotel—it became our go-to breakfast grab on the way to the beach. Overall, a very enjoyable stay and we’d definitely consider re

Our group was in town for a week or so to attend a wedding. We saved hundreds of dollars staying at the Nikita Airbnb versus those who stayed at the wedding hotel block. Free parking and no resort fees. The host was wonderful and very responsive. There are plenty of places to eat and shop that are walking distance. Mahalo!

This was a nice and clean space near Waikiki beach. Peter was very prompt delivering clear instructions for check in and check out.

Amy was such a great host, she gave us a clear instructions. And she let us to checked-in 3 hours before our original time. Regarding to penthouse, it was peaceful and the view from outside was incredibly beautiful. Also we just walked 10 minutes away from the waikiki beach & international market and 18 minutes from kuhio beach. Would like to recommend this penthouse and for sure we will comeback.

It was indeed a great stay. The host was very responsive and made sure we were good throughout the stay. The home itself was nice, the bed was really big and pretty comfy. The complex building itself is nice as well. Overall I think the host was one of the best hosts I’ve interacted with on here. Great person, great stay. I’d definitely rebook with him if I were to ever go back!

Melanie’s place was everything I’d hoped for and more. I liked the boutique nature of the place. The unit was well appointed and we did not lack for anything. Please make sure you pay attention to the information she sends about the parking in Waikīkī. I was oblivious about the premium parking but it worked out ok. Next time I will probably take an Uber from the airport and use the bus service as it was inexpensive and reliable.
