Hotels near Makiki Forest Preserve

"The stay was great."

"The room was super nice, it had a Nespresso machine, fridge, microwave, and some bowls/mugs/utensils. They have kayaks on the property but unfortunately we couldn't go out on the bay due to the storms they had, but the view of the bay from our room looked absolutely gorgeous. So the fabulous pool + hot tub really came in handy for our stay. There are chickens + roosters so bring ear plugs if you're a light sleeper. And there are some really sweet cats on the property as well (we fell in love with Mila). Highly recommend Paradise Bay! Will be returning here if I go back to Oahu."

"I will break up the rating. Condo itself 8/10. Beach/grounds 8/10. Building itself 2/10. Condo was well stocked, clean, great view (5th flr), management responsive. There is snorkel equip, boggie board, beach umbrella, cooler, beach towels. The “bedroom” is a nook area with no room to go around the bed. The pictures are accurate but some wear since. Beach is good, the grounds area a little rough but not bad. There is a grass-covered area to relax in, pool is small but ok. The property: originally a hotel, converted to condo’s and semi-permanent residents. There will be construction for a long time to come but construction didn’t impact us. Roaches on property but not in condo. There are 14 parking locations on site, insufficient. 150 yards away is a grass/mud parking lot, walk along the road after parking. Parking is free. Due to poor construction quality and Kona Low with extreme rains, the elevators quit working, parking lot deep puddles. Parking security staff were helpful. The curb appearance of the building is shocking with construction materials everywhere that have sat for long periods. I would stay again "
