“ Really did enjoy this Hotel and Condo although it does need a little more TLC, some upgrading and painting. The furniture has been recovered, but the indoor chairs are showing wear and tear and the walls and bathroom door need some fill and paint. The bedspread was new but the sheets need replacing as they are worn and pilly. But the bed itself was very comfortable. Some pillows had blood stains on them, was glad I brought my own pillow. The cleaning staff could do a bit better job of cleaning the bathroom and kitchen sinks and the patio sliding door sills need a good cleaning as well. But all in all for the value it was very good. Loved the location and amenities nearby. ”

“ We (2 adults and 6 month old baby) stayed in Condo 629 while attending a meeting at the conference centre. The condo was clean, true to the pictures, and had everything we needed for our stay. The dishwasher was especially nice to have. The view from the condo was nice overlooking the courtyard and marina with easy access to the beach. The air conditioning was nice on the hot days. The conference centre is a 15-20 minute walk. Although there are aBC stores everywhere, a larger grocery store was close enough (about a 7 minute walk). This is as good as we expected for the price and location. We would definitely stay again if we need to return to the area. ”

“ We loved our stay in this condo! The hotel itself is in a great location. It is older but very well-maintained and quiet. This immaculate condo has stunning views of the harbor from the wall to wall, floor to ceiling windows. The condo and views looks just like the photos except the sofa and bedspread have been very nicely updated. The condo is very quiet and well-stocked. The bed was so comfortable. You can catch the trolley and the local bus right outside the door. Phone Honolulu transit for directions and times. It's an inexpensive, clean, comfortable way to get around the city. Check-in was very easy with the electronic keypad. The air-conditioning was quiet inside the apartment. There are fireworks on the beach on Friday nights. Valet was very helpful arranging a shuttle for the airport. Would highly recommend this condo and want to give a big thanks to the owners for providing us with such a great place to stay in Waikiki. ”

“ I took my elderly parents to Hawaii and wanted a place that was comfortable, affordable, and close to the beach and ala Moana Mall. Ilikai met all the criteria. It was my parent's first time at Illikai and they enjoyed their stay as the condo was like a 2nd home and a good size for all three of us. My parents took the king size bed and I had the pull-out sofa which was comfortable. It was nice to have a fully equipped kitchen and a big TV to watch the hockey games. Thanks for a wonderful stay! Hope to be back again soon. Mahalo! ”

“ My mother, sister and I stayed in condo 629 on our girls' getaway. Overall we had a great stay, the only real downside was that the sofa sleeper was so uncomfortable that I had to sleep on the couch itself, which didn't make for a great nights sleep either. The king bed was very comfy though, so a great room for 2 people. It was very clean and the location was perfect. Everything was as the pictures showed. The condo could use some updated furniture and a new sofa sleeper. ”

“ This condo is central to all things Waikiki! The hotel is a short walk to the biggest shopping centre in Hawaii and to some of the nicest beaches too! For places a little further out, the trolley stops right outside your door, how's that for convenient. Access to the condo via electronic keypad was extremely convenient. Check-in was hassle free and no worrying about losing keys. The apartment itself was clean and fully equipt with everthing you would need to cook like you do at home. Loved the extra's such as tips on cheap car rentals and parking (we used these and saved a bundle) chairs and mats for the beach and sand toys for the kids. If I had to complain about anthing at all there would be only 2 things that prevented this from being absolutely perfect. 1 - the sofa bed is really uncomfortable (however we ended up putting the kids on this and taking the king bed which was very comfy & 2- water pressure in the shower was not the best and left my hair somewhat flat but all in all nothing that put a damper on our stay. I would recommend this condo for anyone looking for affordability in a 5 star location. The Hilton is right next door but 3 times the price (and doesn't have a kitchen). When we return to Hawaii we will deffinately return to this condo. Thanks Rocco, for being so helpful from the very start of our accommodation search to our return home. ”

“ We rented this one-bedroom Ilikai condo for nearly two weeks in late July and early august 2010. It was our first experience with this type of accommodation, and I have to say we were extremely pleased. The condo was very clean, had a very comfortable King bed and sofa bed, and a kitchen equipped with new appliances and more dishes than we could use. The Ilikai Hotel and Suites is a gracious and comfortable site, offering a lovely open-air lobby, a very nice pool, and interesting restaurants. We liked the value and cleanliness of this property the best. The only disappointment was that it had no health club privileges associated with the rental. ”

“ The condo was great for two people. The sofa was a bed if you had more people. There was a queen bed bed but the entire room is the condo. It was great and comfortable for my wife and myself. It has a balcony that we sat on and saw a fantastic fireworks show for the 4th of July. There is a firework show every Friday on the beach. We did go to the beach and traveled around Waikiki via the Trolley. The information package that was left in the room was helpful. I would recommend this condo to anyone keeping in mind that it is better suited for a couple. Kids would be OK on the sofa but another couple in the condo would would make it small. I would stay there again. ”

“ The aloha apartment was a great place to stay. Any query we had while we were there was responded to quickly. It was a clean, comfortable and relaxing place. The view from the balcony was bliss. The location was great as it was far enough from the hustle and bustle of waikki central, but close enough to have an enjoyable walk. The only down side was parking. Valet was quite expensive, and no alocated spot for this particular apartment. We had to find parking at the beach behind the apartment, which was a little annoying.I would recommend the Ilikai apartments to anyone and I would definately stay there again. ”

“ Aloha Condos and Rocco were excellent in all dealings. We particularly appreciated the early check-in after our early arrival from Australia. We were impressed with the cleanliness and full stock of linen for our stay. Our previous four stays in Hawaii have been in expensive tiny hotel rooms around Waikiki; staying in a full size apartment and preparing our own meals, without housekeepers arriving when they were free, was a pleasure. We are so pleased we had taken advice from a Canadian couple we had meet in 2008 at Ala Moana Mall who recommended Aloha Condos. Ilakai Hotel is obviously having a full make-over, but the construction work did not interfer with our stay. When the hotel shopping mall reopens and the construction work ends, we would rate the overall experience at five star!! ”

DanandKazumi from USA on 05/17/2010 said:
“ Location: you just cannot beat it. Not in the middle of Waikiki is so much better so that you can have peaceful nights. Parking: you have to use valet service, and $18/day might not be cheap, but boys are always there with smiles and at the end, I really do think it is worth it. I hate driving around looking for parking spots anyway. View: sunsets were so beautiful! Kitchen stuff: everything worked, and plenty of plates, mugs, utensils etc. absolutely no problem. Bed: bed was firm and nice. I wish you had different type of pillows though. They were too soft for us. Bathroom: everything worked: Maybe you might want to add a small size of soap for the sink, and leave a larger one for shower for guestsâ convenience. Keyless entry: first we had some problems locking, but once we figured it out and once we memorized the number, this was the best idea. Why anyone wants to use card key! Imagine losing the room key at the sandy beach!! We stayed for 8 nights and we needed to change sheets during our stay. I noticed you had only twin sheets sets on the selves. Maybe you should change them to Queen size, just in case of guestâs longer stay like ours. ”

“ We enjoyed our stay at the Ilikai. This is a well-maintained hotel. Our condo was very clean and well-equipped. Views were awe inspiring even for myself as a local resident. A few concerns are the internet wireless did not work and the sofa and bed coverings are very old and dingy. Offsetting these issues was the very quick response from the local agent helping us. Definitely would stay here again even though there was construction going on right underneath us it ended each day at about 4:00 p.m. Mahalo for this affordable ocean view rental. ”

“ Service getting the condo was very good. No question has to what to do. Location was good despite the new building and noise outside every morning. Good things -- kitchen was well stocked with dishes,etc. the dishwasher a great plus. Lighting generally fine. Not so good things - the bedding was terrible. The plastic sheet on the bed made it feel like you were in the hospital and it made the bed too hot. Bad! Also, one small bar of soap for both handwashing and shower for ten days for two people seemed pretty stingy. Toilet paper for two for ten days was not enough and we bought our own as that provided was of very poor quality. Need to do better with the bathroom stuff. Other than that a great time. Thanks. ”

“ We (2 adults, to children) stayed in Unit 629 and were very happy overall with the accommodations. I would not consider this a high end unit, but it is comfortable and nice at a very good price. We arrived early and Aloha Condos was able to accommodate our early arrival at no extra cost....thanks Rocco! View of Ala Moana boat harbor and sunsets were great. Building across the street still undergoing renovation but, other than a slight eyesore, it did not bother us. This room was very quiet, no noises from adjacent rooms nor from outside. This is not in the heart of Waikiki, but only a 20 minute walk to the International Marketplace. We enjoyed being a bit away from the crowds and the extra walking was good for us. The only difficulty we encountered was with the $250 security deposit authorization on our credit card...seems the funds transferred out of our account but the owner shows no record of receiving funds on their account. Still working with banks to resolve, check your bank statements carefully if you book here. (I believe this is an honest "mistake," Rocco has been very responsive in working with us to resolve this issue. Other than that, we were very satisfied and would recommend this condo ”

“ Everything about the condo was simply fantastic - from the location to the view of nightly sunsets! The bed was extremely comfortable (I'm not easy to please when it comes to sleeping). Even though I had to make my own bed each day, it made for a much more relaxing vacation as I didn't feel as though I had to hurry out in the morning so the housekeeping staff could come in. The only thing that would have been nice would be a couple more bath towels. Found that I had to launder towels twice while I was there a week. Overall the condo was wonderful, clean, quiet, and well furnished. Even the construction going on across the courtyard was not a problem. We found very nice restaurants within a pleasant walk from the condo each evening - never ate in the same one twice. ”

“ We had a wonderful time. The condo was perfect for a relaxing holiday and had everything we needed. There were 3 issues: the shower didn't drain and we were standing in 3 inches of water and we couldn't get the alarm to work. We were also disappointed to find the apartment block opposite (which is shown in the promotional photos/video) was under construction and not very pleasant to look at. Other than that, we thought the keypad was fantastic - no worries about losing keys at the beach. The location was great - very central. ”
Manager response:
“ Aloha--<br /> <br /> We are glad you had a relaxing time in our condo. We wish, however, that you had let us know about the problem with the drain. We have a local contact that is available most any time, and a very responsive plumber that would have been able to fix the drain problem very quickly.<br /> <br /> The building next door is being worked on, and progressing quickly, the bulk of exterior construction should be completed by the end of the year. ”

“ We really enjoyed our stay. It was a great location to enjoy the beach (only a few minute walk) and waikiki, as well as Ala Moana (beach and shopping center). Could do without a car at this location. Unit was relatively clean, well equipped kitchen; beach chairs and towels provided. A/C unit was a little loud when on the lanai, w/ partial view of marina and partial view of buildings (no view of water when in bed.) But it was nice to hear the Hawaiian music program every Friday evening while sitting on the lanai. Would definitely stay at the Ilikai again--maybe on a different section of the building w/ a more unobstructed view of the water--but would stay at this unit again if something w/ a better view was unavailable. Overall it beats a hotel room and is a great value. Great response from mgt to any questions we had while staying there. ”

“ We enjoyed our stay in condo 629 and dealing with Alhoa Condos. I have told a friend who will be visiting Honolulu to contact them and be sure to stay in condo 629. We had just stayed at a condo in Seabrook Island and were so happy to see the little things that go along way such as coffee filters and salt, pepper, foil, and plastic wrap, that the condo in Seabrook did not have. I know this items seen small but when you go to do something such as cook its very nice to have the items at hand. The decor was wonderful and updated, the view fantastic. Go to the restaurant on the 30th floor, go for happy hour and and early bird dinner (a lot less expensive) the view is breathtaking!! One thing I hope the owners might add would be beach chairs, umbrella, and a small ice chest to use on the beach. Also a book with information such as where the grocery stores are and directions on how to get to them. I do hope we can return again. A special thanks to Cat who helped us out so much ”

I loved this because I could leave everything behind and not worry about anyone (maids, etc.) coming in while I was away. Great pool, lagoon and beach moments away. Complete refrig, stove, microwave, etc. There is a remodel going on across the way but it did not bother me--nor did I have others in those rooms facing me.

“ The property is clean and comfortable. It has great view too, but what really touched me was the flexibility of the management. When we stayed there, my Mom was a little under the weather, so I called the manager the morning of the last day of our stay to see if we can stay a little bit longer that day since our flight home was around 11pm. Luckily there was no renter the next day. He quickly arranged the cleaning person to come later on and allowed us to stay until night, so that my Mom had some good rest. We only paid $50 for this late notice request. I really appreciate that. ”

Good rental
Overall rating:
Kevin G from San Diego on 04/16/2009 said:
“ Rental was clean and well taken care of. Cozy bed with nice sunset facing view, although a few buildings naturally get in the way. Located close to Aloha towers and chinatown. Very quite in the building and very private - no tourists mad dashing for the elevators. Owners are very attentive to your needs and respond quickly to your requests and questions. Just be aware of a few minor caveats: 1. Parking is not fun - must weave around to the 7th floor to get parking. If you don't make arrangements with owner to get a hand tag parking is very expensive. Hand tag parking only accepts cash so be prepared to shell out. Persoanlly owner should have a space in the garage and let you use it. Additionally, getting into the parking garage is a pain, so many one way streets, if you don't come straight down Bishop you are gonna be frustrated. Street noise is a problem in the morning. Bedroom needs real curtains, blinds don't keep the sun out so it is a great alarm clock in the morning. Although there is a Long's drug at the base of the building, it and most other businesses close early since you are downtown so plan ahead. The kitchen in the condo is small and slightly sparse, just a small cooktop, a microwave and a small toaster oven, but it was ok for light cooking. ONe other warning, this unit cannot really sleep 4 in my opinion. Thehre is one queen bed in the bedroom and a small swivel couch in the living room/kitchen - can't see how one person- let alone 2 could sleep in it. Fair price for what you get though and being downtown especially for business was a plus. ”

We bought a bus pass but sometimes I felt like we wasted time waiting for buses instead of being exactly where we wanted to be. Every night we headed for the night shopping and it felt a ways away. For the price and cleanliness and feeling like we had a home away from home, the Ilikai and this specific condo was superb. ”

“ Really did enjoy this Hotel and Condo although it does need a little more TLC, some upgrading and painting. The furniture has been recovered, but the indoor chairs are showing wear and tear and the walls and bathroom door need some fill and paint. The bedspread was new but the sheets need replacing as they are worn and pilly. But the bed itself was very comfortable. Some pillows had blood stains on them, was glad I brought my own pillow. The cleaning staff could do a bit better job of cleaning the bathroom and kitchen sinks and the patio sliding door sills need a good cleaning as well. But all in all for the value it was very good. Loved the location and amenities nearby. ”

The dishwasher was especially nice to have. The view from the condo was nice overlooking the courtyard and marina with easy access to the beach. The air conditioning was nice on the hot days. The conference centre is a 15-20 minute walk. Although there are aBC stores everywhere, a larger grocery store was close enough (about a 7 minute walk). This is as good as we expected for the price and location. We would definitely stay again if we need to return to the area. ”

This immaculate condo has stunning views of the harbor from the wall to wall, floor to ceiling windows. The condo and views looks just like the photos except the sofa and bedspread have been very nicely updated. The condo is very quiet and well-stocked. The bed was so comfortable. You can catch the trolley and the local bus right outside the door. Phone Honolulu transit for directions and times. It's an inexpensive, clean, comfortable way to get around the city. Check-in was very easy with the electronic keypad. The air-conditioning was quiet inside the apartment. There are fireworks on the beach on Friday nights. Valet was very helpful arranging a shuttle for the airport. Would highly recommend this condo and want to give a big thanks to the owners for providing us with such a great place to stay in Waikiki. ”

“ This condo is central to all things Waikiki! The hotel is a short walk to the biggest shopping centre in Hawaii and to some of the nicest beaches too! For places a little further out, the trolley stops right outside your door, how's that for convenient. Access to the condo via electronic keypad was extremely convenient. Check-in was hassle free and no worrying about losing keys. The apartment itself was clean and fully equipt with everthing you would need to cook like you do at home. Loved the extra's such as tips on cheap car rentals and parking (we used these and saved a bundle) chairs and mats for the beach and sand toys for the kids. If I had to complain about anthing at all there would be only 2 things that prevented this from being absolutely perfect. 1 - the sofa bed is really uncomfortable (however we ended up putting the kids on this and taking the king bed which was very comfy & 2- water pressure in the shower was not the best and left my hair somewhat flat but all in all nothing that put a damper on our stay. I would recommend this condo for anyone looking for affordability in a 5 star location. The Hilton is right next door but 3 times the price (and doesn't have a kitchen). When we return to Hawaii we will deffinately return to this condo. Thanks Rocco, for being so helpful from the very start of our accommodation search to our return home. ”

The Ilikai Hotel and Suites is a gracious and comfortable site, offering a lovely open-air lobby, a very nice pool, and interesting restaurants. We liked the value and cleanliness of this property the best. The only disappointment was that it had no health club privileges associated with the rental. ”

It has a balcony that we sat on and saw a fantastic fireworks show for the 4th of July. There is a firework show every Friday on the beach. We did go to the beach and traveled around Waikiki via the Trolley. The information package that was left in the room was helpful. I would recommend this condo to anyone keeping in mind that it is better suited for a couple. Kids would be OK on the sofa but another couple in the condo would would make it small.

The location was great as it was far enough from the hustle and bustle of waikki central, but close enough to have an enjoyable walk. The only down side was parking. Valet was quite expensive, and no alocated spot for this particular apartment.

“ Aloha Condos and Rocco were excellent in all dealings. We particularly appreciated the early check-in after our early arrival from Australia. We were impressed with the cleanliness and full stock of linen for our stay. Our previous four stays in Hawaii have been in expensive tiny hotel rooms around Waikiki; staying in a full size apartment and preparing our own meals, without housekeepers arriving when they were free, was a pleasure. We are so pleased we had taken advice from a Canadian couple we had meet in 2008 at Ala Moana Mall who recommended Aloha Condos. Ilakai Hotel is obviously having a full make-over, but the construction work did not interfer with our stay. When the hotel shopping mall reopens and the construction work ends, we would rate the overall experience at five star!! ”

“ Location: you just cannot beat it. Not in the middle of Waikiki is so much better so that you can have peaceful nights. Parking: you have to use valet service, and $18/day might not be cheap, but boys are always there with smiles and at the end, I really do think it is worth it. I hate driving around looking for parking spots anyway. View: sunsets were so beautiful! Kitchen stuff: everything worked, and plenty of plates, mugs, utensils etc. absolutely no problem. Bed: bed was firm and nice. I wish you had different type of pillows though. They were too soft for us. Bathroom: everything worked: Maybe you might want to add a small size of soap for the sink, and leave a larger one for shower for guestsâ convenience. Keyless entry: first we had some problems locking, but once we figured it out and once we memorized the number, this was the best idea. Why anyone wants to use card key! Imagine losing the room key at the sandy beach!! We stayed for 8 nights and we needed to change sheets during our stay. I noticed you had only twin sheets sets on the selves. Maybe you should change them to Queen size, just in case of guestâs longer stay like ours. ”

Good things -- kitchen was well stocked with dishes,etc. the dishwasher a great plus. Lighting generally fine. Not so good things - the bedding was terrible. The plastic sheet on the bed made it feel like you were in the hospital and it made the bed too hot. Bad! Also, one small bar of soap for both handwashing and shower for ten days for two people seemed pretty stingy. Toilet paper for two for ten days was not enough and we bought our own as that provided was of very poor quality. Need to do better with the bathroom stuff. Other than that a great time. Thanks. ”

“ We (2 adults, to children) stayed in Unit 629 and were very happy overall with the accommodations. I would not consider this a high end unit, but it is comfortable and nice at a very good price. We arrived early and Aloha Condos was able to accommodate our early arrival at no extra cost....thanks Rocco! View of Ala Moana boat harbor and sunsets were great. Building across the street still undergoing renovation but, other than a slight eyesore, it did not bother us. This room was very quiet, no noises from adjacent rooms nor from outside. This is not in the heart of Waikiki, but only a 20 minute walk to the International Marketplace. We enjoyed being a bit away from the crowds and the extra walking was good for us. The only difficulty we encountered was with the $250 security deposit authorization on our credit card...seems the funds transferred out of our account but the owner shows no record of receiving funds on their account. Still working with banks to resolve, check your bank statements carefully if you book here. (I believe this is an honest "mistake," Rocco has been very responsive in working with us to resolve this issue. Other than that, we were very satisfied and would recommend this condo ”

Even though I had to make my own bed each day, it made for a much more relaxing vacation as I didn't feel as though I had to hurry out in the morning so the housekeeping staff could come in. The only thing that would have been nice would be a couple more bath towels. Found that I had to launder towels twice while I was there a week. Overall the condo was wonderful, clean, quiet, and well furnished. Even the construction going on across the courtyard was not a problem. We found very nice restaurants within a pleasant walk from the condo each evening - never ate in the same one twice. ”

Could do without a car at this location. Unit was relatively clean, well equipped kitchen; beach chairs and towels provided. A/C unit was a little loud when on the lanai, w/ partial view of marina and partial view of buildings (no view of water when in bed.) But it was nice to hear the Hawaiian music program every Friday evening while sitting on the lanai. Would definitely stay at the Ilikai again--maybe on a different section of the building w/ a more unobstructed view of the water--but would stay at this unit again if something w/ a better view was unavailable. Overall it beats a hotel room and is a great value. Great response from mgt to any questions we had while staying there. ”

We had just stayed at a condo in Seabrook Island and were so happy to see the little things that go along way such as coffee filters and salt, pepper, foil, and plastic wrap, that the condo in Seabrook did not have. I know this items seen small but when you go to do something such as cook its very nice to have the items at hand. The decor was wonderful and updated, the view fantastic. Go to the restaurant on the 30th floor, go for happy hour and and early bird dinner (a lot less expensive) the view is breathtaking!! One thing I hope the owners might add would be beach chairs, umbrella, and a small ice chest to use on the beach. Also a book with information such as where the grocery stores are and directions on how to get to them. I do hope we can return again. A special thanks to Cat who helped us out so much ”

Kevin G from San Diego on 04/16/2009 said:
“ Rental was clean and well taken care of. Cozy bed with nice sunset facing view, although a few buildings naturally get in the way. Located close to Aloha towers and chinatown. Very quite in the building and very private - no tourists mad dashing for the elevators. Owners are very attentive to your needs and respond quickly to your requests and questions. Just be aware of a few minor caveats: 1. Parking is not fun - must weave around to the 7th floor to get parking. If you don't make arrangements with owner to get a hand tag parking is very expensive. Hand tag parking only accepts cash so be prepared to shell out. Persoanlly owner should have a space in the garage and let you use it. Additionally, getting into the parking garage is a pain, so many one way streets, if you don't come straight down Bishop you are gonna be frustrated. Street noise is a problem in the morning. Bedroom needs real curtains, blinds don't keep the sun out so it is a great alarm clock in the morning. Although there is a Long's drug at the base of the building, it and most other businesses close early since you are downtown so plan ahead. The kitchen in the condo is small and slightly sparse, just a small cooktop, a microwave and a small toaster oven, but it was ok for light cooking. ONe other warning, this unit cannot really sleep 4 in my opinion. Thehre is one queen bed in the bedroom and a small swivel couch in the living room/kitchen - can't see how one person- let alone 2 could sleep in it. Fair price for what you get though and being downtown especially for business was a plus. ”
