This was a nice and comfortable studio with an enjoyable lanai view. Communication with the host was excellent and I really enjoyed spending my time here
So pros first because I would stay here again.
But the cons are worth knowing.
Its in the middle of everything and you can walk or take a super cheap Uber to pretty much anything you need. (north shore ubers range from 50-100 dollars one way tho)
Check in was easy and the room was comfortable as far as needing a private place to relax.
It was very clean.
Its super affordable considering everything in wakiki is expensive...very expensive
The cons.
The TV is a smart TV that wouldnt connect to the wifi - hotel clerk wasn't helpful so our TV didn't work.
But my phone got the job done
Our door would only lock from the inside... yes that means every time we left our room it stayed unlocked. (The combination lock randomly worked and we got tired of trying to get it to work)
But nothing in our room was ever disturbed or stolen.
Thats really the only major problems we had.
My stay was quite comfortable.
Other things worth knowing.
The bathroom door slides closed but does not latch in any way and there is a small gap in the door. But its also behind a slidable curtain.
The shower does the job just fine with water pressure thats acceptable but nothing amazing... its quite big for the tiny bathroom tho.
There is no room service.
This is a privately owned room at a very large hotel, the hotel staff has nothing to do with this room.
I would stay here again without hesitation.
But hopefully my room will alteast lock when we leave next time lol.
Happy with our stay and would probably use again if looking for good value at lower end of market. Pros - well stocked with everything you need, comfortable for price range, balcony is great, beach chairs and surf board available for use. Never waited for lifts and hotel staff friendly. Cons - Only suggestion would be to check that sheets were being provided for the sofa bed a few days prior to your stay if required. We had to purchase some in the end as they couldn’t get anyone to deliver them for the first night, however they did try to arrange. Easy to get hold of mgt company at all times.
The bed was great, with extra comfortable pillows!! The location of the property was great and convenient to lots of things.Having beach chairs and beach towels was much appreciated.

Vacation stay
I really do not like leaving bad reviews, but this was just not a pleasant stay for a vacation. I have to say, the property managers were very responsive very quickly, but I felt very deceived by the posting. The listing makes it look like a condo, but it’s in a hotel, without any of the hotel amenities.If you want to park there, you have to pay almost 40 DOLLARS A NIGHT. When it really should be free for the price you’re spending. There is very limited street parking so that was a nightmare. The AC was the real problem of this stay. The room was constantly at almost 80 degrees, even with the AC being on all day. The management did look into it, but we could barely sleep for 17 days at this Vrbo. We avoided being in the room at all costs. There is no washer dryer provided, you need to go to the basement and use coin laundry. It was very clean, so we did appreciate that. Again, I feel bad writing this review, but we were not satisfied with our stay for the price we paid.

Disappointing.Parking is nightmare.The listing says parking and street pking. Truth: 45 a night and only if available at hotel. If not a guest at hotel, no rights to park there unless they had an opening. They were full most nights and did not allow us to park there. Parking was almost impossible to find and we circled multiple blocks for 10 to 15 minutes to find 1.Metered parking was 2 to 3 an hour and had to pay every two hours. Marabella misrepresented availability and pricing. M also did follw required procedures and list us as visitors to their condo so hotel would not let us park due to this. We had no sheets on bed first night. Semiclean. There was food in the pull out sleeper and jewelry stuck in it. . When sleeper sofa was open at night there was no room to move. We only had carry on bags and two people . 3 or 4 people would be tripping all over each other. We got 3 towels for 7 nights. Overall dissapointing. Their websites portal only allows you to give a give a 5 star rating or nothing. What should have been great vacation was stressful because of this condo. Stay at the hotel directly. Get housekeeping clean towels and parking. About the same price without the hassle. If we did not have a car it mght have been a little better. One plus is you are in downtown honolulu and it is a very walkable city. Beach is 15 minute walk in major traffic roads. Would not recomend if younger kids. 14th floor not secure for them on balcony.
