Very happy with the property. It was very clean, the bed was very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with enough utensils to prepare anything we wanted. One thing, could use another frying pan. Would definitely recommend this place.

My wife and I generally enjoyed the condo at the illikai, however several factors impacted the enjoyment of our honeymoon in Hawaii. The place was not overly clean, and nasty soap scum and residue was on both sink taps and in the drainage hole of the bathroom sink. The Lanai had pigeons living on it and they would everyday poop on the chairs, table and the air conditioner. Perhaps some kind of screen to keep them out would be beneficial. Also the attention to detail on painted surfaces and grout of the bathroom tiles looked unfinished and a little bit of sprucing up would make this unit worthy of the nearly 3000$ Canadian we paid.

Condo was very clean and had everything we needed. Stunning views. Hotel staff was very rude and unhelpful. We pulled up to the front of the hotel and it was very busy. I got out to get a luggage cart and wheeled it to the car. A man who worked with the hotel ran over and started taking my luggage off the cart and said I was not aloud to use the cart and he needed it for his job. So I left the suitcases in the car and we went to the check in desk and told the man I already had a code for my room and just wanted to confirm that it was on the 14th floor and where the elevators were. The man at the front desk rolled his eyes and said “what floor do you think your room is on”. I said wow - thanks for your help and walked off. Then the girl working valet comes running up to us asking for our keys and said we just move our car immediately or pay $45 a day for valet. I tried to explain that we were just trying to figure out where to go and we would move the car. Keep in mind, these three interactions with hotel staff occurred within probably 3-5 minutes. Not a great welcoming. Not the condo managers fault - like I said the condo is amazing. But this hotel is full of rude workers.

We had an amazing time. We loved the openness of the lobby and amenities of local stores and food. Our room (the flooring) could have been cleaner and mopped. The room we stayed in was right by the elevator so we heard that throughout the night, but the view is worth it! We will be back.

The condo was great. Perfect location to watch surfers and sunsets. We went to the Hula show and fireworks on on first night in Waikiki, great location to walk the beach and explore all the shops.

We loved everything about our stay! Fred the owner was amazing and super responsive! The room was clean, tidy and super comfy king bed. The shower was hot and great pressure. And the view from the balcony was stunning. Purely stunning! I will miss sitting on the balcony the most!!! It was perfect for the two of us! I've already had someone ask me where we stayed from the balcony view alone! I highly recommended this place! 10/10.

The condo was great for the two of us. The kitchen is very well equipped and the bed is very comfortable. The harbour and ocean views from the lanai are amazing! Loved the location - quieter area but walking distance to the restaurants, shopping, tours, beaches etc. Marine Vacations team were great - very informative throughout our stay. We’d definitely book here again if returning to Honolulu.

This property was exactly as listed..:)
Incredible views of the pier and ocean, it was lovely sitting on the balcony at night during sunset and watching all the lit up boats on the water.
Fred was the most enjoyable person I have ever rented from. Incredibly kind and accommodating during our whole trip. We had some flight delays and friends who had cancellations and he graciously worked with us so we all wouldn’t be stranded without a place to keep our things until we could get flights figured out.
The condo had everything we needed and was very clean. Location is also excellent to great restaurant and the beach.
We will 1000% rent from Fred every time we visit Waikiki going forward!

My husband and I stayed in this unit for just two nights. The location was perfect to walk to restaurants, shops, beach, etc. The unit was very clean, and the bed was so comfortable. It is right off the elevator, which was very convenient and extremely quiet...we heard no noise in the unit. The view was incredible and very peaceful to sit out on the balcony with our morning coffee. We would definitely return to this unit! Thank you for the wonderful stay!

The location is perfect! The check-in/check-out process is the best. The parking options are plentiful nearby. We can watch the fantastic sunset from the balcony. The condo is clean. The sofa is too soft for the kids, but they don't complain. Overall, we enjoyed our stay very much and will go back. Thank you.

The people upstairs shook out their towels with sand that landed on the lanai and the table. Also somwthing from upstairs left corner leaked onto the lanai. That corner at top is rusted, you should check it out.
We loved your condo and will recommend it to family and friends.

When we rent a place while on vacation, the criteria I look at to know that it's somewhere I will be comfortable staying are: clean bathroom, no mould in shower/tub area or on shower curtains, nice towels; comfortable bed, nice pillows, fresh, crisp sheets; clean kitchen (first thing I look at is the inside of the refrigerator. I was delighted to see that this unit checked off all of my boxes. My husband and I had a wonderful stay, it was exactly as pictured. The only thing that could be improved is to have a chest of drawers to put clothing that doesn't need to be hung up in (we had to keep these items in our luggage and access them from there, which I don't like to do when I am on vacation - I don't like to see my luggage from the time I unpack at our destination until the time I pack to go back home. The other thing that would have been nice given that there was no chest of drawers, is more hangers in the closet (there were only about 10, of various types - wire, plastic, wooden) - I think that could be improved by having more hangers and make them all the same type so the closet looks just like at home.
Fred was very accommodating and helpful when we decided to extend our stay after we had already booked and paid the deposit. He is very easy to deal with. The final note is that the cost to stay in this unit was very reasonable, compared to other similar units, which we also appreciated.

Only downside was that there was no dressers to put our clothes in. Lots of closets but needed shelves or a dresser. But other than that great place best beds ever.

This property blew my expectations away - the view from your balcony is absolutely stunning! I seriously couldn’t recommend this unit more for a couple - great atmosphere, beautiful pool and a 15-20 min walk from the main strip of Waikiki.
Additionally, Fred was very communicative and highly professional throughout the booking process and answered any questions we had whether it ranged from entry into hawaii, or general unit questions.
—
After our time there, we compiled a few helpful tips that may be beneficial for the next guests in this unit:
- Bring baking sheets if you plan on cooking. In addition, there aren’t any measuring spoons so if you need those make sure you pack them or buy them.
- If you are staying for longer than a week, I would recommend booking an additional cleaning service. With the amount of sand you track from the beach, sometimes you need a little more than the broom provided.
- Bring beach towels.
- Bring reusable bags for shopping.
Thanks for an amazing honeymoon stay!

Our home away from home was everything we read about and expected. The room was perfect for the two of us. The view was spectacular. I would definitely recommend this property. Don't forget to bring binoculars to see the surfers from your large lanai. The extras such as the chait and back pack in the hall closet were a nicd surprise when going to the beach or lagoon. We met a lot of interesting people from all over. You can walk to many places or grab an Uber. I can't think of a more beautiful place to celebrate life and would definitely come back to Room 1402.

This place is exactly as described. Super clean. View was awesome.
The location was great. The area around the building wasn’t super busy, just they way we like it. We rented a car and used the parking lot for the marina as suggested and it worked out great.
The bed was comfortable and provided a restful night sleep
All the pots/pans/utensils needed to cook were provided. There were no spices and such as with other rentals I’ve stayed in, but that was easily remedied by grabbing some salt and pepper packets at one place we did take out.
The bathroom was good with plenty of hot water and water pressure. Four sets of towels were provided.
We used some of the other provided amenities, the iron, steamer, and the most useful item by far was the beach caddy.
The unit is close to the elevator, laundry, and trash room, but we were never disturbed by them at all.
Nothing really to complain about at all about this apartment. If I had to find one thing it would be that there are no exhaust fan in the bathroom for the shower, but we just showered with the bathroom door open.
If my travels bring me back to Hawaii I will 100% stay here again.

You can’t beat the view of the place as it looks right onto the marina and the ocean. The ilikai is a great spot because of the location in Waikiki. Also, downstairs there are breakfast and lunch spots and a dinner spot on the rooftop. There are also two pools! Check-in process was super easy and efficient and the space was great for two people - would definitely stay again.

This was the best place to stay! The pictures are exactly like what it’s like in person. The view is amazing! We are already talking about coming back and staying here again!

This ocean front suite is perfect for 2! The photos were exactly what is pictured. About a 15 min walk to a variety of shops and restaurants. Walking distance to the beach and lagoon. The only thing I would note to others is this suite only comes with basic amenities like tp, soap, paper towels. We didn’t need to buy any for our week long stay but for longer trips you will need to stock up. But other than that zero complaints! Thanks!

There are so many beautiful properties in hawaii but my husband and I fell in love with this one. The pictures don't do it justice the view from the balcony was breathtaking. We came on our honeymoon and the space was perfect what we wanted. We had everything we needed in the room. The hotel is local to everything an ABC store across the street for small groceries two malls located with a 15 to 20 min walk restaurants all around the property. On Friday nights they have a hula show and Sundays a band u can watch from ur balcony. We were sad to leave but if we happen to come back definitely would stay here again!
