Waikiki Vacation Packages

I stayed at Central YMCA Residences while transitioning into my new apartment and beginning a new chapter of my life here in Hawaii. From the very beginning, the staff made me feel welcomed and helped turn a big life change into a much easier experience. I especially want to recognize Christine. Every once in a while you meet someone who leaves an impression on you, and Christine was definitely that person for me. She was always kind, helpful, genuine, and had a way of making every interaction feel easy and comfortable. Not only is she amazing at what she does, she is gorgeous, so much so it is hard not to notice. Some people just naturally brighten your day, and Christine did exactly that. Thank you Christine, and thank you to everyone at Central YMCA Residences for making my first days in Hawaii something I’ll always remember.

I gave the amenities a usefulness of 2 because the room we were staying in was too small for the 2 double beds with metal supports (feet) and my wife broke her toe on one of the metal bed supports on the 2nd day of our four day stay. We planned to go kayaking the next day but could not. The property is not ADA compliant and the room we were staying in had 18 steps up to the parking lot and about 15 steps down to the pool. After the visit to the emergency room my wife was basically a prisoner in the room with a painful broken toe. If it weren't for the balcony she would have had no where to go. To make matters worse because of the broken toe my wife had to miss our son's wedding, which was the reason we came to Hawai'i in the first place. When we checked out nothing was offered in the way of compensation for the pain and inconvenience. Oh yes, and on the day we left, I was cleaning up the dishes to leave the room nice and the kitchen sink water would not shut off! Maintainence tried to fix it but when we left after checking out it was still running! Don't get me wrong the property is beautiful. I only wish we could have enjoyed it.

This place is beautiful. We unfortunately did not use any of the amenities which kinda sucks pain a resort fee. We ended up exploring the island a little bit more so. This place is super awesome to see turtles so if you’re looking for snorkeling seems like a great location, and if you’re looking for shopping, it’s a great location. The pools were a little overcrowded, but it is what it is.
