Do You Need A Car in Waikiki?
You DO NOT need a car in Waikiki. Everything in Waikiki is within walking distance. There is little parking in Waikiki, and what parking there is, is very expensive. We recommend that all visitors rent a car for just 1-2 days after arriving to drive around the island but 80% of your time will be walking around and enjoying Waikiki.
It is recommended that you book online rather than walking up to the counter in Hawaii to rent a car. You will save around 30%. There is also an Advantage Car Rental desk right by the front desk in the lobby.
Did you know to walk from one end of Waikiki Beach to the other end is just a 25 minute walk? That is it.
Visiting locations
Visiting locations on this side of the island is a snap without a car. There are tons of companies that service the whole area with super inexpensive shuttle bus service. For example, for just $11 round trip, they pick you up at the front door and take you to Hanama Bay, includes snorkel, mask and fins. Same price to the huge flea market at Aloha Stadium. Pearl Harbour is also appx. $14 round trip with shuttle bus and you get inside info from the drivers.

Parking: Valet Parking is $45 per day. Other options include parking at the outside public parking on the ocean side of the building behind our beach ramp in designated spots for $1 an hour. There are machines at each lot that take credit card or cash payments. The free parking on the left side is from 6:30am to 10:30pm, outside those hours all cars are towed away so read all signs posted.

Red Lobster Parking
Across the street on the west side on Hobron Lane is Red Lobster. There is a parking garage located there that offers parking for $23 per day. Please check rates upon arrival.

Our room location was perfect, everything was within walking distance. Amazing view. Parking wasn’t too bad but if you do valet it can get really pricey. Overall our stay was perfect, only downside personally for me were the pillows. They were so flat. I ended up almost using all the pillows to myself.

Clean room nice location.. Host was responsive. Had all the essentials. AC was in energy saver mode. Kept turning off making it hot several times at night, but ither than that it was good.

Clean, comfortable, quiet. Incredible views of the ocean and lagoon. Fireworks from our balcony.Would like to go back.

Excellent communication with host… condo as described, clean, quiet, restful; small business in lobby and nearby provided smaller meals. Pool popular but big enough to actually swim and not just paddle around. Beach beautiful but sand rocky, so bring water shoes. With small children, open balcony could be a problem, though lovely view. Will definitely stay here again. Thank you, Helena!

We had an amazing time at this resort. I think we enjoyed the view and pool the most. All the amenities the hotel offered were a bonus including washer and dryer and a market inside the hotel or ABC store across the street and being centrally located was perfect! The VIEW!! I think all 4 of us left a piece of our heart there. Really was so peaceful enjoying coffee and lunch on the balcony. We made the naughty list 1 time because we left a bikini on the rail to dry. Don’t do that.. lol The condo was the perfect size for us as we’re pretty tidy people. Kitchen is perfect and we were really happy there were beach chairs, snorkel gear and blankets for the beach to use. We watched a rooftop luau from the balcony for FREE. We will be back in December and this will definitely be our 1st choice stay again. Mahalo

We really appreciated the clean, quiet, and great location of this condo. Staying on that end of Waikiki was better overall, although we could easily walk to the hustle and bustle. So cool to watch fireworks on the balcony. The pics are a true representation of the unit. If you have an easy going low maintenance family of 4, this place works well. Helena gave us all the details we needed.

The condo was in a great location with a view of ocean and lagoon. Wonderful pool! We were within walking distance to beach and next store to Hawaiin Hilton with its restaurants and shops. The Ala Moana Mall is close. Condo was adequate but outdated.

Had a wonderful stay here. Place was clean. Great view of the Friday fireworks. Close to Ala Moana mall and buses to Waikiki stop in front of the building. Host is quick to answer questions and provide check in info. The only minor issue, if you plan on cooking, some of the pots and pans have a lot of scratches in them.

Insider tips

Good to know at Ilikai

  • On Friday evenings, catch the hula show on the patio downstairs, then stroll out back to the lagoon next door for the Hilton Hawaiian Village fireworks.
  • With kids in tow, the Duke Kahanamoku Lagoon is shallow and reached by a short path that skips streets and parking lots; early risers can circle it for sunrise over Diamond Head.
  • Right in the lobby, a coffee shop handles easy breakfasts and the ice cream shop next door is a favorite with kids.
