Property Description
The Ilikai is the first hotel-resort condominium developed in Hawaii and is one of the original landmarks of Waikiki. It is best known for being featured in the Hawaii 50 TV series and is loved by tourist and locals alike. Conveniently located in Waikiki next to the Hilton Hawaiian Village, it is steps away from the beach and a beautiful swimming lagoon. While not technically "on the beach" there are no streets to cross and it is literally just a 3 min walk after leaving the open air lobby to walk down a beautifully designed walkway which will lead you to the beach.
The lobby level amenities include a spa, hair salon, concierge, bell desk, restaurants, coffee shop, convenience store and resort retailers. There are also 2 pools including a swimming pool and a lounging pool. Valet parking is available 24/7. There are over 14,000 square feet of landscape yard and patios. 24 hour security.
The condo has been completely redecorated, freshly painted, mostly new furniture including a high end King size bed. Great view from the lanai (and from the bed!) of the lagoon and ocean. It has a fully equipped kitchen but if you prefer not to cook there are plenty of restaurants nearby to choose from ranging from local fair to international favorites like Indian or Japanese.
It's the perfect place for a Waikiki stay.

This property was exactly as advertised. The 2 pools are great. You won't find a better spot to see the Hilton Hawaiian Village Friday night fireworks!

This was a wonderful place, with great unobstructed views of the lagoon, fireworks and pool area. We were without three month old so it was n ie to peer down and see which pool had shade before making our way down 11 levels. The kitchen was well stocked. I really loved how Christy had plenty of coffee and cleaning supplies so we did t have to go buy things for the week we were there. I was thankful for the rolling wall that partitioned off the bed from the rest of the place so I could put the baby down and still hang out in the evening.

Christy (the host) was the best to work through VRBO customer service issues. She's very patient and was always available. Truly a remarkable host.
The pictures of the condo property are right on, and the view from the lanai is spectacular. The condo was very clean and stocked with most of what you would find at your home. The partition to block off bed area from the living space is a bonus and was much appreciated for those going to bed early. Bed was comfortable. It was a bonus to have beach chairs, towels, boogie boards, umbrella, and if you have children, there are some pool/beach items for them as well. From our lanai, there was no noise from the pool area, nor anywhere in our area. We were able to view 2 Hula shows from our lanai that were taking place across the street at the Hilton. Plus, there's a Friday Hula Show within the courtyard of the Ilikai. Wakaki Beach is within walking distance, as is many restaurants, shops, or sunset boat cruises. We were up every day to see the sunrise from our lanai and then view the sunset which is just a few minutes' walk to the beach. Pesca restaurant elevator was great for a bird's eye view of the harbor and sunset. Food and service were excellent. The Ilikai and this condo added to the best part of our 8-day trip to Oahu.
Looking forward to returning and would only stay at the condo. Thank you, Christy, for the effort that you put forth to make this condo a great place to stay for your guests.

The location and view of this property was outstanding. However the protestors from the Hilton Hawaiian village were very loud starting at 7 am they would move around the other side of the building. We weren’t able to enjoy the balcony or the pool. Hopefully this strike will be over soon . Otherwise a lovely stay.

The property is situated in such a way as to be close to Waikiki but away from the noise. You have a great ocean view and front row seats for Friday Waikiki fireworks. I will definitely stay here again.
