It was a great stay for us, the view from the balcony was awesome. Walking distance to all shops and restaurants. My only complaint about the condo is the window AC in the master bedroom. It is old and very very noisy, it sounded like a big bang that continues until it auto turn off. The entire stay was horrible. I called the number and complained about it, a maintenance person came but did not fix it. The master bedroom need a new AC.
We booked this trip to celebrate our 35th wedding anniversary as well as my mother-in-law's 90th birthday. We were all very comfortable and pleased with our stay.
The condo was good. A bit dated, but good. The cleaning service can do a better job. I stay at the Ilikia last year and this year. The fire alarm hads lots of issues last year and this year it went off falsely and I still noticed alot of troubles on this system. Im a fire alarm guy and that bothers me. I would rent this condo again, great view, but i do like the marnia view better. You cant see sunset from here in the winter. But it is a good place to stay.
What a beautiful view from this unit! You can see the hula show across at the Hilton Hawaiian Village and their Friday evening fireworks show! For the amazing price what an unforgettable vacation! The Lagoon and beaches is just a walk down the ramp! We just love tihe Ilikai!! Home of the original Hawaii Five O intro!
Beautiful condo great views wonderful beaches close to everything. Needs new blinds sleeping is little rough with the light from outside and the blinds are missing slats and don't close all the way. Possible termite problem in the kitchen.
Great location, great amenities
An amazing venue , great location and exactly as advertised. Would highly recommend it.
Fantastic location, easy access to the beaches, shops at the Ilikai and Hilton Hawaiian!
Absolutely beautiful view of the lagoon and beach, plus Friday night fireworks!! Bonus - can see the Hilton luau from balcony!
The apartment was comfortable and clean!
2 bedroom condo was a bit smaller than other condo units we have previously stayed in. Slightly dated furnishings and microwave was broken. After a call to property management, it was replaced the next day. Comfortable for four people with two bathrooms. Plus, was view of Hilton's luau from the lanai!
This is a fine property in the middle of the action, on the edge of Waikiki. The Ilikai is a relatively old building, and it shows in the rooms. There could have been more pots and pans in the kitchen. Overall, however, it was clean, comfortable, and afforded us a beautiful view of the ocean. There was the additional advantage of a free hula show near ground level, three of the nights we stayed. You could easily hear and see it from our lanai.
The unit was a two bedroom, two bat with a huge lanai and terrific views. We were in 1418 and the price was fair for the location and amenities. We had a full kitchen which was great and the unit was equipped with a small vacuum and necessary cleaning supplies.
One issue that we had was the microwave oven didn’t work. I reset the circuit breaker once and the oven immediately tripped it again. This proved inconvenient as we purchased microwave meals and snacks which were of no use. Notification to the property manager was made on our second day but we never heard anything. The ac units were old, noisy, and not very efficient. They could stand an upgrade to newer units since they’re not in keeping with a luxury vacation rental. The beds were reminiscent of Army barracks bunks. They worked but I didn’t find them very comfortable. Finally, the toilet in the master bath needs a new flush valve. The one that’s there never shut off completely.
The unit was nice, otherwise comfortable, but in need of a good thorough clean of the base boards, air vents, and some brighter light bulbs in the bathrooms would be great.
We enjoyed the stay and would recommend it to others. Communication is the key.
Thank you
Was what we expected great View was fantastic. Location was good. Not as clean as I like.

This property is in a wonderful location, beautiful beach view each morning and plenty of space for my whole family. Very easy check in and check out, it’s located within the lovely Ilikai hotel. Very nice to have access to all of the shops, including coffee, a restaurant, and even a spa. We enjoyed live music with hula dancers and fireworks on Friday night. The property itself could use some updates and remodeling, but overall clean, the beds were comfortable, and we had most everything we needed in the kitchen. There are washers and dryers on each floor. We enjoyed our stay very much, and would stay here again!
What a great property! Unbelievable view, comfortable beds, storage, convenience to restaurants, shopping, pools, ocean and Ala Moana park (one of our favorite spots)! Property management quick response to any need. Really couldn’t ask for more. Loved our stay!!!!
Stayed here for 4 nights with my husband and 2 teenage sons. The room set up was perfect. We were very comfortable. We enjoyed coffee on the large lanai every morning with a spectacular view. This property is in a great location within walking distance of shopping and restaurants The beach and lagoon are also just a short walk away. Only a few negatives: the decor is a bit dated and the sliding doors are quite difficult to open and close. Also the internet is very unreliable.
I would definitely recommend this property.
Beautiful view of the ocean and lagoon! We loved the Hawaiian decor of the condo and large balcony with access from the master bedroom and living area. We have two teenagers and the space was perfect for our family. After checking in (which was super easy with the detailed email instructions) we were exploring the Illikai and met Chris and his wife, who own a surf shop on the ground level. They recommended a great place for dinner nearby, The Chart House. Great food with wonderful views of the marina. We dined there two more times during our trip! Other nearby attractions within walking distance: The Royal Hawaiian for Luau and lunch/drinks on the beach at their Mai Tai bar. Orchids for a formal weekend brunch. Our last morning before heading to the airport, we visited Pesca’s at the top of Illikai for breakfast where we experienced breathtaking views of the ocean. We had a lovely trip and highly recommend booking this condo!
After a two year absence of travel, it was good to get back to Honolulu. Unit was as advertised. Furniture is getting a little tired and the condo is showing some age. The view is outstanding and a small issue was dealt with promptly.
Aloha!
The location and description of the property were exactly as described in the listing! Stunning views and very close to the beach!
The unit was tastefully updated with lots of room for five adults. My husband was especially impressed with the extremely large outdoor lanai space. It spanned the entire unit and it was so nice to have that extra space to spread out into so that everyone could find some quiet time when needed.
The master bedroom was very large and comfortable. Lots and lots of closet space! The beds and the bedding comfortable and our adult kids said the pull out sofa was comfortable as well.
The kitchen was well appointed with everything we would need and we were surprised to see a very nice new sturdy blender for our frosty frozen drinks!
There were four beach chairs and a soft side Beach cooler on wheels that we utilized when we went to the beach. For those in need of it, there was also a nice umbrella stroller and booster seat in the unit as well.
We ended up parking in the marina behind the building because it was only one dollar an hour. As we knew we would be in an out we never paid more than about $15 a day for parking. If you park in the Ilikai valet parking, starting March 1 it’s $35 a day.
The one negative was when we first got there one of the elevators was not working. By our third day there two more elevators had broken. So for a few days we had to wait for a very long time for an elevator. They did have that all resolved by our fourth day there. And then we didn’t have to wait as long.
Overall it was a great place for a family of five adults and we would definitely rebook if we make it back to Honolulu!
Mahalo for a fantastic stay!
Great location with lots to do. Lots of shopping and dining nearby. Great views too!
