Excellent Value. We love Danno's Condo

We’ve been to Hawaii 5 times in the past 10 years. Danno’s Condo is by far our most favorite place to stay. The views from the condo are amazing…from the wide expanse of the Pacific Ocean to Waikiki Beach and downtown Honolulu. We love to walk for exercise. Located at the base of Diamond Head, we would head out of the condo and circumnavigate Diamond Head….exactly four miles. It is a beautiful walk. At the condo’s location you don’t have to navigate the onslaught of tourists that overwhelm the Waikiki Beach section of Honolulu. However, it is fun to walk from the condo through Waikiki Beach to go through the shops and International Market shopping mall. But it is definitely a major plus to come back to the condo in a very secure building and the peace and quiet this condo affords the lucky renter. We loved the king size bed…the most comfortable in any rental we’ve stayed in (beyond just in Hawaii). We cooked in the kitchen every night except two during the month of our stay. Having a washer and dryer allows the renters of Danno’s Condo to pack light for the trip. If your looking for an excellent value Danno’s condo is by far the best price for all of the amenities that come with it. We highly recommend that you stay here.

Absolutely paradise

Probably the best sleep I’ve ever had in my life. The property was better than advertised in all honesty. We would love to repeat this vacation, the owner and housekeeping was always responsive to our needs when necessary. You absolutely could not find a better or quieter location. The surrounding parks particularly Diamond Head, amazing. My family particularly felt extremely fortunate to have found this property.

Beautiful sunsets, great views of the Pacific

Quiet neighborhood, panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean. Facing West you get awesome sunsets. The view from the 8th floor is spectacular. Security offers peace of mind when you are out seeing the sights of Oahu. The apartment offers tropical breezes throughout with open windows and the sliding glass doors facing West. Amenities are sufficient to dine in throughout your visit. Besides the gorgeous views with diamond head as a backdrop, the presentation and subtle mementos of James MacArthur aka "Danno," reminds the guest that the best of Hawaii 5-0 once lived here. It was a pleasure and honor to be invited to spend our time on Oahu at the residence of Danno and HB Mac Arthur. We look forward to our next visit here again.

Spacious, comfortable 2 bedroom condo with beautiful view

We thoroughly enjoyed our six weeks at Danno's on the Gold Coast at Waikiki. This spacious, comfortable condo was ideal for us, with our daughter and family living downstairs on the fifth floor, and we had room for our son and family to join us for 6 nights when they came on vacation. The sunset views were often spectacular. We made good use of the rooftop Traeger grill. Also, the guest membership at the Outrigger Canoe Club, which the owner provided us, was a terrific benefit of renting this condo. If we ever return to Waikiki again with family or friends, we would love to stay at Danno's again!

About the host

Hosted by HB Duntz MacArthur

I met my husband, James MacArthur, as the first LPGA teaching golf pro at Waialae Country Club when he came for a lesson. He even carried my bag in LPGA tour events. That's when I knew he'd "made the cut"! Soon our son was old enough to join us golfing throughout the Hawaiian islands and in far away countries. We also watched our son through binoculars grow up surfing the waves at Tongs from our condo livingroom. My husband died in 2010 leaving us many years of happy memories of good times shared in our beloved Hawaii.

Why they chose this property

James MacArthur purchased this property because it was everything he wanted. The private, secure building with unparalleled views in a quiet, residential neighborhood provided easy access to the Hawaii Film Studios, home of Hawaii Five-0, and a short walk to Tongs, his favorite surf spot. Time spent here with family and close friends was always special. Over the years his love and respect for Hawaii, the land, the culture and, most importantly, the people, never waned. James was accepted by the locals as ohana...family...an honor he treasured deeply. He described this condo, this link to so much he cared about as, "The best investment I ever made."

What makes this property unique

The condo is an oasis overlooking the cosmopolitan hub of activity known as Waikiki. A quick glide down the elevator and you're out on the street, soaking up the surrounding beauty as you walk by Kapiolani Park and the enchanting Waikiki Aquarium on your way to a myriad of possible destinations. Wherever the day takes you, the road will eventually lead back to the peaceful haven from whence you began. The view of Waikiki at night is breathtaking, as is the looming presence of Diamond Head, but the darkness of the water, broken only by the lights of passing boats, is almost mesmerizing.
This quaint and friendly Gold Coast neighborhood sits comfortably on the edge of Waikiki, where the exciting pulse of Honolulu is both near and far at the same time. They say location is everything, and this can't get much better.
