All of the basics were provided and just about like a home away from home. Grills are available for getting those steaks done just right. Parking at the property is about average for Waikiki ($45 per day) and beats looking for an open meter and feeding it all day. Best bet is to rent a car when you need to travel out of Waikiki. A small studio apartment is a bit crowded for 4 people, unless its 2 adults and 2 kids. No oven, but it is vacation and you should be enjoying the local cuisine. There is a laundromat on site, as well as a "convenience" store. The elevators are busy during the day, but let up after 8 PM. A great option for Hawaii, would definitely stay again.

Great location
This condo was in a great location close to food, shopping and the beach. Guaranteed parking was nice although $40 a day seemed like a lot but that's how it is there. The bed was very comfortable and overall a pretty nice place. I would stay here again.

Wonderful
We had an amazing stay in this condo. Enjoyed the comfortable bed loved the lanai with view of the canal. The price and location was great and pool was very nice and shared spaces clean. The store and laundry area was a plus. Nice to have beach chairs and easy walk to beach. Would return if ever in area.

Great location
Was unclear that parking wasn’t included ($40/day). Ad stated there is an oven but there wasn’t. Otherwise, a great location and good support from the host with a couple minor issues; was just a bit tight for our family of 4.

Waikiki Gem
My family of four (2 school aged kids) had a fantastic stay at Island Colony. Location was fantastic for us. Very close to the hustle and bustle of Waikiki without being right in the centre of it so it was quieter and perfect for a family. The recreation deck is ideal for a family. We took full advantage of the pool, hot tub and BBQ stations and we didn’t find it overly busy. Parking was convenient and fairly priced. The suite provided most of the amenities we needed. We spent quite a bit of time on the balcony overlooking the canal with great views. Both the bed and pullout were comfortable for adults and kids. We highly recommend for a family of four!

Last minute trip
Russ was a fantastic host! I planned a last minute trip to the island to visit some friends and Russ was very accommodating with helping us out. There was a small miscommunication with check in, but Russ was on top of it and made sure we were taken care of(shout out to Julio!!). The condo was perfect for our group of 2 and had everything we needed for our stay. It’s a great location inWaikiki that puts you close to the beach and shopping/restaurants, but also easy access to get out of town easily. The building also has some of the cheapest parking in Waikiki and we never had any issues getting a spot(which is difficult in the area). Overall, I highly recommended this condo and would happily stay with Russ again!

Mixed experience - overall good
The communication with the property owner was great. He was quick to respond and provided helpful advice. First impression of the building was positive. When we arrived, several hours later than expected check-in was quick and efficient. However, went up to the suite and couldn't open the door because their was someone inside doing cleaning who told us to come back in half an hour. So, down we went with all our luggage to find something to do while the cleaning finished. Owner had advised we could check in early (we were there at 3pm) but obviously not. When we finally got in there was a weird chemical smell and i was disappointed to see that the face of the microwave was dirty, there were crumbs on surfaces, about a dozen fruit flies buzzing around ...and garbage in the garbage bin under the sink.There were renovations going on and loud construction noises during the day, and tools and equipment in the hallway of our floor. Two elevators were out of commission at one point. There was a cockroach in the unit near the plates above the sink. There were only two beach towels despite four of us being booked to arrive. Several knobs on the drawers of the dresser were loose. The shower didn't drain properly and so there were several inches of water in the tub throughout the shower and awhile after. Owner advised they had tried to resolve it but would need a plumber. Have photos of all of it. Despite all that, great stay for price and owner did try to solve the issues.

Perfect Condo Experience
This condo is beautifully renovated with a great lanai that looks onto Ala Wai canal. The location is outstanding, only two blocks from Waikiki Beach, restaurants and wonderful walks along the sea. The building has a great pool and hot tub. The Host was informative and kind. Exceptional!

Ideal Location. Comfort and Amenities.
My husband and I had the good fortune to stay for two and a half weeks in Russ's compact, efficient condo. I already miss our time there. Everything is within a short walk - the beaches, groceries, stores and restaurants. The check-in desk is staffed with very pleasant and helpful folks. The building has everything you need - a well stocked convenience store on the 6th floor, open until 10 pm., a 24 hour laundromat, wide patios with picnic tables set around gas barbecues, a large pool, fitness room, jetted hot-tub and sauna. The owner is extremely friendly and accommodating. Don't hesitate. This place is a little piece of heaven in paradise.

Great location and views, adequate for affordable stays
We picked this property because of its proximity to our summer camp and affordability. When we checked in, we found the unit was not cleaned from the previous stay. We had texted with Russ to check in a little bit early but it seems it was not communicated to the onsite janitor Julio. We agreed to walk around the area and come back when the unit was cleaned up. Other than that, check in process was easy and smooth. Overall the unit served us adequately. The balcony added a lot of charm and functionality (we were still working on the east coast time so we took meetings on the balcony). The view of the canal is also great. Building is outdated however and seem a bit rundown. Unfortunately we had to cut our stay short due to issues with cockroaches. I found the first b-52 roach in the tub our first morning in the unit. Russ assured me it’s part of living in Hawaii and it could happen after rain. However after a week or so,I found another one in the living room and at that point decided to book a hotel last minute and move out. As we were packing, I found two more dead roaches. There are no reviews that mention roaches so it could be that I just got unlucky or building has new issues with roaches or something (Russ also assured me there was never any complaints about roaches). Russ was communicative throughout these issues but we just couldn’t deal with having to look out for roaches on a trip like this.
