The Waikiki Banyan is one of Waikiki's most popular resort condominiums for vacation rentals in Hawaii.
Located just one block from Waikiki Beach, the Waikiki Banyan is the perfect home away from home for your vacation in paradise. The location is perfect; just steps to the beach, Kapi'olani Park, the Honolulu Zoo, shopping, entertainment, and excellent restaurants, but at the quiet end of Waikiki; far enough away from the noise and the crowds to make the Waikiki Banyan your own private oasis right in the heart of Waikiki.
As one of the only condominiums on Oahu permitted to offer legal short term vacation rentals, the Waikiki Banyan is the perfect place to enjoy the paradise that is Hawaii.
There is a designated smoking area at the front of the building near the entrance to the driveway
Located on the 31st floor of Tower 2 (Mauka), our corner unit is your home away from home while holidaying in Honolulu.
The spectacular views from the large lanai in our newly renovated, comfortably furnished, 700 sq. ft. condo will leave you breathless.
We specifically chose our unit because of the location - we are on the cool, quiet side of the building. We face away from the noise of Waikiki and our lanai gets the morning sun and the afternoon shade. The sunrise over Diamond Head is breathtaking and the breezy tropical Tradewinds keep our unit cool and comfortable. Plus, our condo is fully equipped with everything you could possibly need.
Fully equipped with everything you could possibly need, enjoy the conveniences of a vacation rental by owner with all the comforts of home, including a full size kitchen.
Come enjoy the aloha!
Tile floors throughout are cool and easy to clean. A sofa, loveseat and chair provide ample seating, the fully equipped kitchen, large bathroom with walk-in shower, dining table with seating for four, and the most comfortable king size memory foam bed you will ever sleep in ensure your stay will be heavenly.
Our views are unobstructed and spectacular and you can enjoy your morning coffee or an afternoon glass of wine on our spacious lanai equipped with a bistro table and chairs. A deck box holds Tommy Bahama beach chairs, beach umbrellas and snorkel gear. We have everything you need to make sure your stay is as pleasant and comfortable as possible.
There are laundry rooms on each floor with coin and credit card (app based) operated washers and dryers and a drying rack in the unit for your beachwear. A small starter kit of toiletries, toilet paper, paper towels etc is provided to make sure you have what you need on arrival. And of course parking and wifi is always included with your rental.
The Waikiki Banyan welcomes you with a beautiful open air lobby complete with a koi pond and waterfall. In the lobby you will find a well-stocked convenience store and the Banyan Breeze café, which offers delicious coffee, baked goods, snacks, and light meals.
The recreation deck located on the 6th floor has a large heated swimming pool, saunas, hot tubs/spas, barbecues, childrens play structure, tennis and pickleball court (currently closed for repairs) and more. There are plenty of lounge chairs to enjoy the sun plus seating in the barbecue area for dining.
Our suite is located on the opposite side from the rec deck facilities, providing a peaceful retreat for those who are looking for a quiet, relaxing holiday.
*Important note: We will soon be undergoing a complete renovation of the rec deck, including a new pool, three new hot tubs, new lounge chairs, cabanas and umbrellas, new dining and seating areas, snack bar, landscaping, etc. We do not yet have a firm start date but we anticipate that construction will begin in late 2024. Watch this space for updates!
We are also in the process of replacing our elevators. From April 2024 to April 2025, one elevator (out of four) in each tower will be out of service for replacement. This may mean longer than usual waits for an elevator, especially during peak hours. We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your patience while we do these much needed upgrades.
