Met our Needs
North Liberty, US, October 6, 2025 Stayed for 13 days in September 2025Living room pictured online is very different from furniture in the unit we stayed in. Dining chairs and table were well-worn. Glass-top coffee table instead of what is pictured. Beige fabric sofa vs. what is pictured. Bathtub/Shower looked a bit dingy. Kitchen was well-equipped and functional. Bedroom was nice and mattress was comfy. Plenty of bath towels and beach towels were provided. Vacuum was provided, but I wish there would have been a broom and/or hand broom and dustpan available.

Close to beautiful beach but dated unit
Lake Country, CA, September 16, 2025 Stayed for 4 days in September 2025The condo was a 5 minute easy walk to Waikiki beach and the main shopping strip. I loved the clean bbq grills available by the pool. Our specific unit on the 12th floor was a great view with a small balcony but the furniture was very dated the outlets are old the kitchenware is stained and mismatched. The bathroom shower is tight and dark and the whole place has a very 90s feel to it. A lot of the pots and pans were scratched up.
I did love how they had lots of beach towels bath towels and chairs umbrellas and floaties for the beach. The property manager guy Byron is very helpful and gets back to you quick.Response from Captain Cook Resorts

Kaori M. from Okazaki Ten'no-cho, Japan, June 13, 2024 Stayed for 3 days in May 2024As well as the convenient location, it was so valuable to be able yo park free. It was easy to park.

価格以上の満足を与えるコンドミニアム。
HIROAKI M. from Kanazawa-ku, Japan, November 29, 2023 Stayed for 5 days in November 2023オーナーの趣味が活かされた、ハワイ気分満載のお部屋。

12. December 2023Mahalo, for your time to write us a review and recommendation of this great condo. We received a glowing review from you as you said "If I have the chance, I would defintely like to stay in this room again next time " but it looks like you mistakenly gave us a NO recommendation instead of a YES. I will pass your feedback onto the team, and we look forward to your next visit!

Sunset 1211 rental
San francisco, United States, November 14, 2023 Stayed for 10 days in November 2023Bedroom lanai door does not lock.
Inside shower curtain smelled musty and warm water pressure flow in shower was minimal. Cold water pressure was fine. Maybe something to do with hot water pipe/valve?Response from Captain Cook Resorts

Wiakiki Sunset
Harry M. from Calg, CA, March 1, 2023 Stayed for 36 days in January 2023We were very satisfied with the rental. Good location for us. Property manager was very helpful for us. Very quick to respond. The unit was quite well equipped. The only down side was that the kitchen was not very clean. The doors and handles on the cupboards were quite greasy as wee as stove knobs and range hood.
Response from Captain Cook Resorts
01. March 2023Thank you for your review of your stay! We were glad to hear that you were quite happy with your stay, but we were disappointed in ourselves regarding the level of cleanliness upon arrival that you mentioned. Please know that this was not up to our own internal standards, and we will be investigating to ensure that something like this does not happen again. We are pleased that you appreciated the location and the services from our property manager and we hope you will continue to keep us in mind for future stays.

Great Hawaii Vacation
Calgary, CA, October 28, 2019 Stayed for 10 days in October 2019Great and very clean apartment, great location. Free parking is a huge privilege.
Very disappointed w the renovation of the hallways that started on the 5th day of our vacation. Nobody let us know about that coming. Lots of noise from the outside. Host did offer other apartments in the building but those didn't fit our needs.Response from Captain Cook Resorts
29. October 2019Aloha and Mahalo for taking the time to post a review and recommendation of your recent stay! We are pleased you appreciated the free parking, cleanliness and location of this great condo. We are sorry about the construction noise your encountered. It is true, the building itself is undergoing ongoing improvements, we do not always get specific information of where or what type improvements, ahead of time. If that info would have been provided, we would have notified you immediately. We work hard to offer good accommodations and friendly service, and I’m sorry that our offer to move you to other higher floor units far away from the noise, did not fit your needs. I will pass your feedback onto the team, and we look forward to your next visit!

Clean, Great location, Helpful Property Manager
Surrey, CA, April 16, 2019 Stayed for 7 days in March 2019The unit was very clean, and stocked with just about everything we needed - basic utensils, glasses, plates, cookware etc. The location was great - only a couple blocks down to the beach and main street and within a reasonable walking distance to lots of restaurants, beach bars etc. We loved being so close to everything! AC worked really well (and was to come home to after a long day in the sun), and it was handy having a little pool in the building for a quick dip after a long day.
Byron, the property manager, was excellent! Responsive, timely, and super helpful with suggestions and local knowledge. He came right away when the wifi wasn't working and was thorough in making sure the issue was properly fixed.
Our only side notes - the unit is not as upscale as the pictures suggest - it is functional and clean which worked well for our purposes but a little more basic/older than expected which is fairly typical for vacation rentals. Laminate "granite look" counters, some wear in the bathroom etc. The pictures were accurate but perhaps a bit outdated. We would stay here again anyways but would adjust our expectations a little.
The pillows were also really uncomfortable - lumpy, and so soft that they offered no support whatsoever. There is lots of extras so we were able to make do, but would suggest the unit purchase newer pillows to improve the otherwise excellent experience.Response from Captain Cook Resorts
17. April 2019Mahalo, for the wonderful detailed review and recommendation it's always great to get this kind of feedback! We're delighted to have provided all of the needs you required for an enjoyable stay! It makes our day to read such an enthusiastic review and we're so glad that you appreciated the convenient location and amenities of this fabulous condo! I was sorry to hear about the uncomfortable pillows and we have replaced them -thanks for alerting us to this. We look forward to welcoming you back on your next visit!

Shirley C. from Daly City, United States, January 7, 2018 Stayed for 7 days in December 2017Honolulu is our 2nd home, our stay at Waikiki Sunset #1211 was very good!
The only thing the condo lacked was cookware. I ended up buying a frying pan to cook breakfast. Other than that everything was great!Response from Captain Cook Resorts
08. January 2018Mahalo for choosing to stay with Captain Cook Resorts and the great 5 star review and recommendation! Each condo is fully stocked with cookware and we apologize for the problems you encountered. A quick call to your property manager would have located the cookware or bought whatever was lacking.

Hope you can enjoy a return trip to our beautiful islands soon!
