“ The condo was great! Plenty of room for 5 adults. The location is on the edge of Waikiki, which made it perfect getting around the island and not dealing with the traffic along the beach. ”

Kathy from Missoula on 04/17/2013 said:

“ The condo looks west over the ocean and the marina. Sunsets are spectacular - sitting on the lanai waiting for the green flash was an evening event. The condo is nicely furnished and very comfortable. 4 adults stayed for 4 days with lots of room. The two bathrooms made getting ready to go out, easy. Access to Waikiki beaches, shopping and restaurants couldn't be easier. Lots of good beach walking opportunities or hop on the trolley right outside the front door. If our travels take us back to Honolulu, we would stay here again. ”

“ No checking in or out.Went directly to the unit and let ourselves in.We went to the unit before going to the market to get an idea of the kitchen supplies. Shouldn't have bothered. The kitchen was as well stocked as our own home. Clean clean, clean. Beautiful view. Wifi worked perfect.We had a car rental all 9 days so parking was a bit pricey. ”

The Tomasetti Family from Townsend, Massachusetts on 02/26/2013 said:

“ We found this rental through Vrbo last year when we started to plan our vacation. From the start the process was very straight forward and Kathaleen Petron was very helpful in answering questions, explaining the rental process and always responded when we contacted her. The condo met all of our family's needs and accommodated our 3 kids very well. It was great to have the 2 bathrooms, as we could allocate one to the teenage boys! The condo is tastefully furnished and was comfortable. We loved having the 2 lanais and enjoyed many meals outside. We were able to prepare many meals with ease in the well supplied kitchen. The condo is perfectly located and allowed for easy access to local activities and the beach. The services available at the Ilikai provided everything we could need and the hotel staff were friendly and helpful. The first floor shops were very convenient as was the nearby aBC store. It was a reasonable walk to buy grocery items at the Don Quijote store. We enjoyed the bar and grill as well. It was especially helpful to have the keypad on the door. It was great to be able to have the teenagers have easy access and not have to worry about them losing a key. The only critiques we could have is that we wished for more towels and face cloths for the number of guests. We did towels in the convenient laundry room twice during our stay. Also although beach towels and mats were provided, several of the mats are in poor condition and therefore we did not use them. A few more beach towels would have been helpful as well. Overall we had a wonderful vacation and would recommend this rental unit highly. We plan to return to the island next year and will not hesitate to contact Kat again for the rental. ”

Great value and excellent location

Toni from Melbourne, Australia on 11/28/2012 said:

“ The detailed check in procedures given to us made our arrival at the condo work very smoothly. For a family vacation everything was provided to make it easy to enjoy. It was located at the ala Moana end of Waikiki near the Marina which was a bit quieter but still within walking distance of everything (or a bus/shuttle ride which conveniently stopped right outside). The only thing we would have liked was a bigger pool area particularly for children. ”

A truly great vacation

more than satisfied from Vancouver, BC, Canada on 11/20/2012 said:

“ We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Condo 1110 was exactly what we wanted and there was plenty of room for five adults. This was the first visit to Waikiki for three of our party (2 from England)and we could not have found better accommodation and location for the price anywhere else in the area. It was great to have the bus stop and pink line tram stop right outside the building. Our only complaint was that the condo did not have a safe which really is a must in this day and age. ”

“ To sum it up wow!! The view was so much more than we thought it would be. Family members who told us about the condo were very surprised also. They are going to pass on the location to other visiting friends. We spent a good part of our time there just sitting on the balcony and watching the world go by. It was the one part of my vacation that I wished I'd planned to stay longer. ”

Perfect Place for 4 adutls to stay...?

Overall rating:
Ken & Diane from Shawnee, Kansas on 10/26/2012 said:

“ It was as advertised. The view was really special - we spent hours on the lanai. We had both a laptop and Ipad, and had no problem with internet access on either device - this was important for us to use the internet to plan our day-to-day activities on the island. We loved the touch pad door entry. The beds where very good and the kitchen was well stocked. The condo was well stocked with many of the extra things you might need for your stay. The only suggestion would be to have a free standing fan to circulate the air conditioner flow around the living room and into the 2nd bedroom during the afternoon hours. We were extremely pleased with condo and would definitely recommend it. Did I mention the view - Wow...! ”

Most exciting stay ever

Overall rating:
Gerry from Leicester (UK) on 09/27/2012 said:

“ Most exciting stay ever in Hawaii,we had a wonderful time,good direction to get there just go up to the 11th floor and tap in your code that's it, its as easy as that,if you have any problems just go to the front desk job done or you can ring direct from the phone in the condo its free local calls and your agent will be there for you, the condo has everything you would need from a fully fitted kitchen to the shower in the bathroom ,the double bedroom is great if its privacy you need but if you want the better view then go for the twin bed option, you have the full view of the bays small boat harbour with the Pacific Ocean as a back ground, the lounge has a 42" TV with all the channels you would need and if you've gone for the twin bed option you have your own TV in there too, if you want your breakfast on the balcony then its there, its home from home, the food store is just 5 minuets away and holds most if not all your needs, restaurants are just around the corner and are very good, if you like Lobster then be prepared to pay Lobster prices but overall most are very reasonable with lots to eat, look out for the special offers they can save you a lot, Ilikai Hotel has its own laundry station on each floor, they can be costly if you do a lot of washing and or drying $2.50 per load so take change and go to the store and buy your soap powder, the air conditioner can be noisy at night so turn it down as much as you can or better still turn it off if you can stand the heat and have a great stay ”

“ The purpose of this stay for myself was 100% business, but my daughter joined on the trip for pleasure. The location suited both of our prposes. Easy to get to my downtown office without facing the brunt of the strip traffic. Close enough to the strip for her to easily get to shopping food, et al. Loved proximity to alo Moana park for my nightly runs. ”

Alexandra from Stavanger, Norway on 08/10/2012 said:

“ The condo was perfect for a family of six! We had three lovely weeks here and enjoyed every day. The location is great on ala Moana Blvd. with a 8 minute walk to the shopping center, 10 minute walk to the action in Waikiki and a 5 minute walk to the beach. Also, there is a bus stop right outside the hotel, which makes it very easy to use the bus system which is very easy and cheap! We are very pleased with the service and condo. The only thing I could complain about would have to be the lousy water pressure in the shower. The best thing about the condo though, is definitely the location. Would absolutely recommend staying here! An enjoyable stay guaranteed! ”

Fabulous family vacation

Overall rating:
Kathicon from Santa Clara on 07/23/2012 said:

“ We chose the Iiikai Condo because of it's location close to the beach, Ala Moana park and beach and the ease to get in and out of the complex with our car. The views from this condo were wonderful. The condo was comfortable for the 6 of us, three adults and three children. Eating on the lani every morning was a joy.The kitchen was well equipped, plenty of towels and beach towels. We plan to rent this condo again.Negative is the Iiikai Hotel's unit garbage pick up. Every unit disposes of their garbage in a central location on each floor. No problem with this but the garbage pick up by hotel is not done in a timly minor and the whole are smells. Also, cockroaches outside the building near the grill and coffee shop in the evennings. With the garbage laying around the cockroaches outside,I see this as a problem. ”

A trip to remember!

jujuyee from Santa Clara, California on 06/21/2012 said:

“ My parents and I could not have been happier with this condo!! It was my parents first trip to Hawaii and we were all visiting for my sister's wedding!! When we walked in we felt like it was our home away from home immediately. The space was light and bright, clean, and comfortable. My family and I were there for 5 nights-6 days and we just had the best time. We had lots of extended family also staying in different rooms at the Ilikai at the same time. Our room quickly became the family hub to chill out, enjoy snacks and meals, and catch up. The beds were comfortable, both bathrooms were large, clean, and spacious. Lots of fresh towels/ beach towels stocked in cabinet in bathroom. They even provided laundry baskets for each bathroom. And I loved that we had a vacuum to clean up after coming back from the beach. The kitchen was very well stocked with glasses, plates, mugs, etc...everything you would need to put a nice simple meal together or reheat leftovers. There were two strong a/C units wells spaced apart in the room to keep the temperature comfortable at all times. There is a combination pad to get in and out of the room which was great (no key needed)!! Only thing that wasn't "great" was wifi connection. But while on vacation...it is nice to unplug :o) Would definitely stay there if in Waikiki again. For those of you planning to do a bit of shopping on the main retail spots keep in mind it is a 15-20 minutes walk from condo. Its a beautiful walk but may be worth catching a shuttle in front of condo (5-7 minute ride to shops :) But for drinking water, snacks, etc. there is a great little convenient store in the lobby of the Ilikai and large aBC store kitty corner from the condo. Had the best time!! ”

Nice Views, Lots of Room, Very Clean, Nice Kitchen and Bathrooms

Overall rating:
Daniel from Napa, CA on 06/18/2012 said:

“ This was a nice condo all around. It has nice breezes and nice views of the ocean and perhaps the sunset if it was winter time. The rooms and bathroom were comfortable and well kept. The condition of everything was in good to excellent shape. A great place to enjoy Waikiki. Very close to the Hilton Restaurants and amazing gardens. Very close to everything, even the beach is a short walk away. Hotel service was good and the valet parking guys were fast and friendly. The draw back here was that the bedroom side of this condo faced some traffic noise so keep that sliding door closed. ”

“ This condo was a great find for our trip. We had four adults and one todddler with us. The location was great for the toddler, next to the Hilton lagoon with a bus stop right in front of the hotel. The view of the marina and ocean was great. Beach mats, boogie boards and pail/shovels were available for use. One of our favorite parts about the condo was the touch pad lock so we didn't have to worry about a key. We would highly recommend this condo to anyone coming to Oahu. ”

Exceeded expectations

Martin from Sydney on 04/16/2012 said:

“ The apartment was well maintained and spacious, ideal accommodation for our family (with 2 older teenagers - 18 and 16). The kitchen was well equipped allowing us to have breakfast as well as cook when we felt like a home cooked meal. The main bedroom with en-suite were also appreciated. The management company were also keen to please and went above and beyond when contacted with questions. The hotel itself is located at the end of the main beach overlooking the harbor. The views are great, however our older kids would have preferred to be closer to "the action" which was a good 20 minute walk away, although well served by public transport. The hotel swimming pool is clean and functional, lacking the wow factor of adjoining hotels, however there are plans to upgrade it. We did spend a reasonable amount of time in and around the pool area. There appeared to be a wi-fi black spot in the lounge area, although reception was fine in other parts of the apartment (e.g. around the kitchen and in the main bedroom). This was not a problem once we understood where we needed to sit to get good internet access. I would have no hesitation recommending the apartment and would certainly consider it again if returning to Waikiki. ”

We used the beach chairs, mats and my son appreciated the bucket and shovels for sandcastle building on the beach that was less than a 5 minute walk away. The wifi connection was not very good in the condo but worked very well in the hotel lobby. We will definitely stay in this condo again! ”

Wendy from Canberra on 03/22/2012 said:

“ Our stay in Condo 1110 was all we could want from the time we walked in to the time we left. Everything was as described and more. The condo was supplied with everything we could possibly need, extremely clean and tidy. Our location at the Ilikai was perfect for us - out of the way enough to avoid the bustle of Waikiki, but close enough to enjoy it when we wanted to. Lots of transport options straight outside the Hotel, what more could you want? We enjoyed coming home and enjoying the great view from the lanai over the marina - perhaps some outside lighting would enhance this? My only slight annoyance was the poor wifi connection - due to location I think, however, you could get around this by taking your laptop downstairs to the lobby or coffee shop where the reception was perfect. We admired the pool from upstairs, and it was only towards the end of the stay, we discovered this pool belonged to the hotel next door, sadly the pool of the Ilikai was a disappointment. All in all, we had a great stay and would recommend this condo highly. ”

Debra from Vancouver from Vancouver, BC on 03/12/2012 said:

“ The condo was very clean and comfortable. It's larger than it looks in photos. We loved the location, the hotel, and watching the sunset from our lanai. The condo has windows on two sides and always has a nice breeze blowing through. It's full of light and felt like home as soon as we walked in. Best of all - it's quiet at night. Service was efficient as well. We were having probems with the telephone and called the help line. The phone was replaced immediately. Our only complaint was the wifi doesn't work very well - which was not fault of the condo, but of Ilikai. We could rarely connect inside the condo but had to go downstairs to the lobby or sit outside on the terrace. It wasn't a big deal. ”

“ This was our second trip to Hawaii with our teenage daughters and again we needed 2 beds and 2 baths which are hard to find in Waikiki. The first time we stayed at Diamond Head end of Waikiki however this time we decided the other end as Ilikai looked like better accommodation, less crowded and was closer to aloa Moana Shopping Centre. The apartment was great, excellent layout with superb views, well maintained and quite modern by local standards. Second bedroom is divided from lounge via a moveable partition which is not ideal. ”

“ This was our first experience with Vrbo and we were very pleased. The condo was great. The views could not have been any better any where. This was our 8th trip to Hawaii staying at other hotels all around Waikiki. This was the best!!! The kitchen was well equipped. We were able to get up and have coffee and breakfast and take our time getting out and about. The virtual video was what sold us on your condo. Love, love, love it. We did not like having to pay $25.00 every day for parking, but we do realize that space in Waikiki is very limited. I'm not sure how that could be remedied, except by adding that to the rental amount and taken care of ahead of time. ”

Tracey from Melbourne, Australia on 10/12/2011 said:

“ We were just so happy with our stay at the Ilikai. It totally exceeded all our expectations. The apartment was so clean and lovely and was perfect for our family of four. The view was spectatular and we spent many hours on the balcony just watching the water! The kitchen was so well equipped. Aloha Condos were fabuluous to deal with. Very professional and quickly answered all our questions. We really appreciated having items like beach towels and beach chairs provided. If I could have my pick of where to stay in Waikiki I would still choose the Ilikai. Walking distance to ala Moana Shopping Centre, and still an easy walk to the heart of Waikiki. We also really enjoyed the beach at the ala Moana Beach Park. Again within very easy walking distance. The Concierge at the Ilikai was extremely helpful. It was just the best place to stay and we would definitley go back again. We would also recommend it to any of our family and friends travelling to Honolulu. Thank you for a brilliant stay. We also ate at the Island Bar and Grill within the hotel twice. Really lovely food at a very reasonable price! We are already planning our next trip back to Hawaii! ”

Fiona from Oakland on 06/27/2011 said:

“ This is a comfortable unit, very tastefully furnished, with a great view of the marina and ocean beyond. We appreciated the boogie boards, lawn chairs and cooler available for our use. The kitchen is small. It's a good way to go for staying in Waikiki. But it's stll rather pricey once you add in valet parking and the distance to reasonably priced grocery stores. Downsides to the unit are the fact that there's a lot of street noise with the windows open (including night-time construction outside when we stayed), and the second "bedroom" is just partitioned off, with a partition that doesn't latch; this was ok for our teenagers, but wouldn't offer privacy. Also, the modem was flaky, periodically cutting out the internet. ”

Good and not so good of Iliikai 1110

Overall rating:
John from San Ramon, CA on 12/27/2010 said:

“ Good: 1) excellent kitchen and cooking facilities. Cooking for the family was easy and painless. Very much appreciated. Salt and pepper are provided, as well as coffee filters. No sugar, cooking oil. 2) layout was comfortable for family. Table, couches, TVs and cable in bedroom and family room. 3) location. Within walking distance of just about every thing in Waikiki. 4) cleanliness. Reasonably clean (not great but good). Bad: 1) Only one bedroom, not two as stated in adds. The other sets of beds are not in their own room, but behind a pull across privacy screen--no separate air conditioning no isolation. This is false advertising and the management company should be taken to task over this. This is a very big negative. I would not have rented in if I knew this in advance. 2) Carpets. We were asked to not wear our shoes on the carpet. This was a real pain, especially with a 2 year old. The carpet is old and looks shabby, needs to be replaced. 3) the wireless did not work. 4) not enough dish washer soap for the stay. L 5) the Ilikai does not allow alcohol outside of the bar and grill. 6) even this is at a hotel, you do not have access to all the hotel privileges. ”

Dave from Portland, OR on 12/03/2010 said:

“ I stayed here with 3 friends in November. I would *definitely* rent this place again, for a future trip to Oahu. The location is fantastic, right at the end of Waikiki beach, footsteps away from the Hilton Lagoon and the ocean itself. The views from the decks (lanais) were fantastic. We saw some amazing sunsets, a guy in robes blowing a conch shell daily, and had a great view of the upscale pool/bar areas next door (which we checked out in the evenings). The condo was big, open, with tons of natural sunlight. Overall it was a great value compared to other beachfront Waikiki options. Only gripes: cleaning fee seemed high (but still overall a great value), the condo could use more lighting, especially around the dining table (very minor nit pick), the internet seemed slow/spotty sometimes (not sure how much they can do about that). Also, the instruction sheet could specify where garbage/recycling is. (We found it, though.) One last thing -- we found out late in our trip that the hotel &amp; marina outside were used to film many memorable scenes from the TV show lost. If you're a fan, it's another yet reason to stay here. (Search the web for sites that go through the Oahu lost locations to see which were filmed at the Ilikai and the marina/harbor. There were some very memorable ones.) ”

T Barr from Chandler, AZ on 10/24/2010 said:

“ Our family had a wonderful stay at the condo! The place was very clean with a beautiful view of the ocean, marina, and the courtyards below. One thing I was puzzled at was the lack of an exhaust fan in the bathroom, but that is a minor issue. Also, for those wanting more privacy the sliding "accordion" door between the second bedroom and the dining area does not close all of the way as there is not a latching mechanism on the end with the sliding patio door. Overall, we were quite pleased with the arrangements and would recommend the condo to friends and family, ”

“ This was a family reunion vacation and this unit 1110 was perfect for what we called the "family central". There were several couples staying in various locations but we would often gather here to share meals, talk story and admire the view overlooking the marina, ocean and wonderful sun sets straight out in front of us. The room was setup nicely, well appointed with modern fixings. It had everything we needed to accommodate our needs. The master bedroom with its own bath situated to the back end of the unit was nice, cozy and private and had a separate balcony. And, as we played hard during the day, it was great to have a nice comfortable king bed to sleep in and get rejuvenated. The unit appeared fresh and well kept, and with that I am not sure I want to recommend it for others to use because we want to return to its fresh condition and keep it a best kept secret of the Ilikai. The only recommended improvements would be the draw string vertical overlap louvered curtains and the air con units are a little noisy. ”

Manager response:

“ Aloha Steve and Suzanne,<br /> <br /> Thank you for choosing our Ilikai unit 1110 for your family reunion. I am so glad that you and your family had such a wonderful time.<br /> <br /> I appreciate your comments regarding the vertical blinds and the air conditioner noise. I will look into finding a solution to reduce the noise from the air conditioners and the problem with the vertical blinds. Without your comments, I would not know about the above situations. I definitely want our unit to be a pleasurable experience for all of our guests.<br /> <br /> I hope that you will consider our unit for your next visit to Oahu. I would be grateful for any referrals of your family and friends who are considering a vacation to Hawaii.<br /> <br /> Mahalo, Jo Ann Bozza. Owner, Ilikai 1110 ”

Wonderful Condo

Overall rating:

“ Our family of four adults had the absolute pleasure of staying in condo 1110 for 4 days early this September. It was all we'd hoped for and more. It was immaculate - exactly as shown in the slide show on the alohaCondos website. We really appreciated the extra little touches that made us feel welcome and at home such as the phone call from Kathaleen shortly after our arrival to welcome us and to check that everything was to our liking; the chocolate kisses on our pillows, the scallop shaped soaps to match the bathroom d&#233;cor and the bag and brochures to name a few. We were very comfortable, the condo was well equipped and the air conditioning was wonderful. We've stayed at the Ilikai before and we love the location. The ocean views and sunsets were spectacular. Booking the condo online was a breeze. Kathaleen from aloha Condos and the owners kept in touch via email and promptly confirmed our booking and provided payment receipts plus condo information which was reassuring. Value for money, I doubt that you'd find anything better than this condo and it comes with my highest recommendation. ”
