We really enjoyed our stay with Ilikai Marina.
The Condo was very clean and well appointed.
Great view and quiet.
At street level of this building there are 2 restaurants.
Harbor Pub; locals, blue collar, loud and fun. Great Vibe.
The Chart Room, upscale spendy looks really nice.
5 minute walk your at the Ala Moana shopping center.
5 minute walk your at the north end of Waikiki.
Will stay here again.

The condo was in a great location and a good size for two people. The bed was good however everything else was dated. Mirrors all over the place, mismatched dishes and cutlery, internet and wifi did not work one day and we were there for 2 weeks.
The owners need to spend some of their money to update the place.
It was nice to arrive at a location and your expectations are met. Great communications. Clean and well equipped. Location assume! Recommend a stay here.
The place is nice .but everything is old and there was no cover for the couch. The shower was dirty and old.old towels no toilet paper.
The view and location of this condo were awesome!
The condo is very old and needs many updates. We arrived and had to clean before we put things away - it needed a good cleaning. The bathroom rug and pillows on the couch were dirty. We were there for 12 days and had 4 towels that were very old. Half of the blinds were missing and Alice was very accommodating and brought us new blinds. There was blood on the comforter and sheets and we had to haul everything to our daughter's house to wash them. The sheets did not fit well and did not stay on the bed. Parking was also expensive at $33/day. It was a little disappointing considering it was our first time in Hawaii. The view and location were the best thing of this particular condo. We would stay again but in a different unit.
Very pleasant place which we called home for several days. Check-in instructions were straightforward. Property manager was responsive. I had lower expectations based on some reviews but we were pleasantly surprised how comfortable this VRBO was. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. I used the pull-out bed and slept through the nights without issues. The cleanliness is acceptable but it could use deep cleaning. The location and view of the harbor can't be beat. Far from the hustle and bustle of Waikiki. H1 hiway access in 5mins. I didn't notice any stench from the harbor but there were debris in it from the city flooding that happened few days before our arrival. We watched sunsets and friday night fireworks from the lanai. Next to the view & location, the heated bidet was my second favorite. They only provided 2 beach towels for a booking of 3 adults. There are some older but functional beach chairs available which we've used without issues. Plenty of mirrors for the ladies. No problems with parking. Laundry on the 8th floor. Dryer takes about an hour to dry a full load. Bring detergent, no vending machine available there. Security guard at the 1st floor.
Very nice and convenient location. Great view and good accommodations. I would stay there again.
The condo was exactly as described and pictured. The view is what I enjoyed. Perfect view for the firework show on Fridays.
We enjoyed our stay at the Ilikai Marina Condo. The view of the marina and bay were spectacular. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen had all of the amenities of home. It’s close to restaurants and shopping. The only drawback was the laundry on a different floor.
This was our 2nd time staying at this property and we once again were very pleased and satisfied. The location and views are amazing! The staff is helpful and quick to respond with any questions or needs. The property is somewhat dated, but clean , comfortable and a perfect location. We highly recommend and will certainly stay here again when we come to Oahu!

We've stayed at the main Ilikai hotel bldg before, which was really nice. But staying here in this Ilikai Marina bldg was nice too! Some things are a little dated, but for the price and the BEAUTIFUL view, it sure was worth it!!
Wonderful stay. I will come back for sure! The view is beautiful and close to everything.
Truly the only negative is they need newer towels. Only had 3 old towels for 4 people.
But that didn’t stop me from giving a 5 star.
Our host, Alice, was very responsive. I liked her a lot.
Pros: walking distance to the beach and shopping district, great restaurant on the first floor, you can uber anywhere, the bathroom was spacious for 3 women getting ready. The condo felt like a safe space, and everyone was very friendly.
Cons: the pull-out sofa had linens that didn't smell clean, the cookware in cupboards were dirty, bath towels were old, stained, and in low quantity. There's a beautiful balcony view of the marina, but the sliding glass doors were dirty, and you couldn't see out unless they were opened.
Overall, the price and location can't be beat. I would stay there again.

The location and place is cool. But there are no basic needs at the accommodation. Basics like shampoo, body wash or enough towels for the stay. I reached out to the property manager immediately, but no luck there. The response was that it’ll be taken care from the next time - meaning not during my stay. This is pretty disappointing during a fun vacation you planned for.
We have stayed in about a half dozen units at the Ilikai Marina. This unit is old. If someone wants something fancy, they shouldn't stay here. Key though is that it was very clean. That's not always the case. Two teeny tiny bath soap bars was sad. No shampoo was disappointing.

This is the 2nd time we have stayed at the Ilikai Marina Condos. The condo is in a perfect location, close to everything, we felt very safe and affordable. The condo was a little dated but it had everything we needed and it was clean and homely :-)
All the staff were friendly and pleasant. The only downfall is the price of the parking, it's expensive.
But this would not stop us from coming back and booking here again. I even recommended it to a friend and they booked here as well this month!!
Booking was made easy, lots of open and clear communication. Overall I would recommend the Ilikai Marina Condos to everyone.
We were able to walk to anything we needed. Quieter part away from Waikiki but still accessible. Will def consider staying again!

We loved staying at the Ilikai Marina. It was close to Waikiki beach and to Honolulu. We could walk most places. Check in was so easy and the property manager was very kind. Will definitely come back!

Don’t expect a 5-star, but this unit/location is walking distance to everything (restaurants, shops, beach, airport) and night life. Floors are tiled, kitchen was great, and laundry on 8th floor. All-in-all iWork’s stay in this unit again. I’ve stayed in other units and this particular one so far is one of the better ones.

We had a wonderful week with all the amenities of home and would recommend this property to anyone visiting Honolulu.
