A big king size bed that fit us all at times in one bed (we out our baby in our portable crib and daughter sleeps with us, but sometimes the kids both end up being on the bed). The room is clean, appliances top of the line, and there are beach toys and floaties for us to use. Parking is $20 a day, compared to other places, this is a bargain! ”

“ We stayed here for our 19 day trip. It was great to have an apt. rather than a hotel. Location is great. Right near ala Moana Mall, the Hilton Hawaiian Village, ABC on the corner (of course). If you are here for two weeks + with a car, check into the part-monthly rate at the ProPark lot in the building. Very reasonable and the elevators go right from the lot to the floor. This unit had everything we needed for this family vacation. Kitchen is well stocked if you plan on cooking most of your meals like we did. Even has a rice cooker. Stop at Costco on your way from the airport or Walmart is only a mile away. There is a beach cooler and some ice packs so you can tote some drinks and /or lunch to the beach with you or on your day trips. At the time of our stay, the unit had a lot of beach toys, grass mat, 2 beach chairs to help out. We left some more grass mats and 5 boogie boards and an extra cooler to assist the next group. Beach towels are also provided in the unit. Both beds are comfortable. There is TV service, WiFi and an iPod dock/speaker system. Enjoy the Hilton fireworks right from your lanai with a Mai Tai. We got to do that three times. We would stay here again without hesitation. Shared lot of tourism tips in the guest book. We learned a lot from what others shared there so wanted to do the same. Thanks! ”

“ We really enjoyed our stay in Condo 1188. We were with two other couples that had their own condos on an different floor. We took a trip to Costco for food and drinks and split the bill - that is the way to go as the local food market is really expensive. We found that the condo had literally everything we needed which was perfect. We did alot of walking to Waikiki which was good since we were eating and drinking alot! Lol. Thanks Gary and Mary! ”

They even had a rice cooker. They had ocean front view and it was awesome. You can see the beach and the harbor from the terras. It's really beautiful. You can see the sun rising, sun set in the room also.The bed was so comfortable and big enough for two kids can sleep.(king size) They had one snokel gear and two boards(one of them was broken..though^^), a lot of sand toys, two beach chairs and a large bagto carry beach stuffs. Ala moana shopping mall is walking distance from the condo(takes only 10 minutes) and there is Mc.Donalds and aBC store just across the street. You can sweam at the llikai hotel pool for free. They have laundry on the 8th floor which cost $2 dollars. We had really pleasant stay and hope to visit this unit again. Thanks for everything Gary and Mary, you were wonderful and kind. ”

First time in a Condo

Masa from Los Angeles on 11/11/2011 said:
“ I've been to Oahu many times and have stayed in hotels in Waikiki. Most of the hotels are nice, but the rooms lack any space. Since I have used aloha Condos for my stays on the Big Island, this time I stayed in one of their condos on Oahu. The Ilikai marina was built in 1968, but the building itself is kept fresh, though they could use new carpet in the hallway leading to the rooms. Room 1188 seems to have been updated recently and was a very nice place to stay. I did not use the kitchen to cook, but the appliances were also undated. It was so much more relaxing to be in this condo, as opposed to a hotel. There is at least 3 times the room as a regular hotel. I would probably have to pay 3 times as much for a hotel room with just as much space and ocean view. All in all it is a great value, you get an ocean view, friday fireworks in the Marina, and room to spread out in a condo that is fresh and clean. I can't wait for my next visit. One hit against the building, not the condo or owner. Make sure you tell the parking lot attendant that you want a residential pass before you pay the first time. They won't refund your money, even if you are asking them about it as they are putting the money in the register. ”

“ Clean and well kept. The view is fantastic. Very centrally located with easy access to Waikiki and ala Moana beaches. We preferred the waves at Waikiki near the Sheraton so it was a bit of a walk along the beach but we didn't mind that. The condo has all the amenities you need, and the kitchen is well equipped. Very happy we picked this place for our holiday. ”

“ Our stay was very good like last time. We had a small problem when we arrived as the lock was recently changed and the code that we were given did not work. Hopefully, the local manager was very quick in responding and fixed the problem (Thanks Jim!). Another thing: the wi-fi did not work. There must be a problem with the password or something. Also, it was a little bit more noisy that last year (because of the Chart House Restaurant below). Hopefully, we were on the 11th floor. All in all, we had a very good stay. Condo well maintained, fantastic view, and very conveniently located. ”

“ Stayed for one week for a convention. About 10 minutes walk to the convention center and was very convenient to go east towards Waikiki or west to the ala moana park center and convention center. The condo was very clean. I paid for parking in the garage beneath it and it was very convenient if you wanted to go to places outside of Waikiki - highly recommended, much less crowded and beautiful beaches, hikes etc. The view over the harbor from the balcony was great. Nice ammenities with lots of storage, good shower pressure, nice kitchen, and good to have an ipod player too! Bed was very comfortable. Overall, a great experience and much more room and cheaper than a hotel room. There is no pool, gym etc at the condo, but who needs them when you can do everything outside! ”

“ We stayed for two weeks in Ilikai Marina. The condo is clean, spacious, and comfortable. It has almost everything you wish for holidays. The only thing we missed a bit is a dishwasher. The pictures truly represent condo and views from balcony. We liked that although it is located in the heart of Waikiki it is very quite. Aloha Condos was quick to respond on any queries. And if you like a quite beach and morning jogging it is only 15 minutes walk to ala Moana Park. Only few observations (and some of them not even related to the condo): 1. Smell in the hallways, probably because of old carpets or / and garbage room. 2. Better cleanliness of the apartment would be great. 3. As mentioned by one of the reviewer, recycling bins and explanations what can be recycled would be excellent (we don't want to keep destroying beautiful Oahu :)). Otherwise as I mentioned to Garry this was one of the best vacations in our lives. Definitely will recommend to our friends, and hope to return soon. Thanks Gary and Mary. ”
Manager response:
“ Thank you for your words, and we're glad you enjoyed yourselves.<br /> <br /> The carpets are cleaned on a regular basis and are scheduled to be replaced in the spring. <br /> <br /> It is our goal to provide an immaculate room for our guests. If anything has been missed please inform our local contact so that housekeeping can correct the problem immediately.<br /> <br /> Recycling bins and a garbage chute are located in a closed room at the west end of the corridor. We also provide a free canvas bag to each guest to reduce the need for plastic bags while shopping. ”

Perfect condo to stay in Waikiki specially for family with children. Thank you Gary and Mary for providing such a great place to stay and accommodating our needs. ”

“ The condo was awesome, especially for returning locals who have a car. Top of the list was the 180 degree ocean view from Hilton lagoon to ala Moana park from the living room/balcony and the bedroom (watch their excellent video - it says it all). The place was very clean, bright with natural light, well furnished, had a large SubZero fridge which was perfect for freezing our local delights we always bring back to the mainland. It was very quiet being a residence/condo-tel building. The large parking garage directly below the condo was very convenient for going in and out. It was very well stocked on kitchen and dining stuff. It even had a nice rack of spices to cook with. The king bed was very firm, and the pull out sofa sleeper was very comfortable with a memory foam top - very nice addition. The web site was very well designed, and the follow up emails were very informative, clear and simple. My family was very happy with my "find" at this condo. We will definitely be back. Thank you very much to Gary and Mary appel who I have never met but feel like I know them through their well thought out traveler's haven and emails. Aloha and Mahalo. ”

“ This condo 1188 is really a fantastic place to stay. Extremely clean and well equiped throughout. The only things I would fault it on would be the drapes in the bedroom and living room need replaced as they are torn and takes away the atmosphere of the condo. Also the sofa bed is a little uncomfortable to sit on but as we were not there that often it did not matter that much to us. It is a very quiet place and the views are spectacular! Only a short walk to beach and lagoon. Shopping is a mere 6 minute walk to huge shopping centre. A wonderful stay. Highly recommended. Susie Sydney Australia ”

“ This was our second stay at the Ilikai Marina and we were happy with both condos we stayed in, 1188 and 17??. The view is fabulous, the marina side is quiet for being right in Waikiki, and having the full kitchen really made a big difference in our stay. The location is a close walk to Ala Moana Mall, the Beachwalk shopping area and Waikiki. Watching the sunsets, water activities (and Friday night fireworks)from our lanai while drinking some fabulous 100% Kona coffee was a great vacation highlight. On site laundry on the 8th floor was helpful too. Hint: The higher floors are better if you are noise sensitive as the great bar/restaurant on the ground floor marina side stays busy late. If we were to want to stay in Waikiki again, this is where we would book. ”

Don & Kathie from Sylvania, OH on 12/03/2009 said:
“ The condo was exactly as described and pictured. It was immaculate, comfortably furnished and had a fantastic view of the marina and Honolulu's beautiful sunsets. The kitchen was the best equipped condo of any we have stayed in from Paris to Amsterdam and the building was very quiet. The attached parking garage (while a bit pricey at $17 per day) was very convenient and secure with unlimited in and out privileges. The owners were extremely easy to work with and very concerned that all of our needs were met. Any questions we had were answered promptly. We had a local contact along with the owners' email and phone numbers in case of any problems - of which there were none. Our only initial concern was locating the actual entrance to the building. Our GPS couldn't determine that while the street address is Ala Moana Blvd. the building and parking garage are accessed via Hobron Ln. between The Red Lobster and Charter House restaurants. Having laundry facilities on the 8th floor near the elevators was convenient. Just remember to bring plenty of quarters and your own soap & fabric softener since there are no change machines or product dispensers. The only other comment concerns the carpeting in the hallways - it is in need of a deep cleaning and some TLC. This, however, is an issue for the complex not this specific unit. We had a great stay and have already told many friends that we would highly recommend this unit as the perfect place to stay while enjoying Honolulu, Waikiki and the island of Oahu. ”

“ I have been reading the reviews since we stayed in this apartment and I can only assume something was done about the filthy carpet! I just felt sick when I saw it. Cannot imagine who would be able to spill so much on a cream carpet - it was hideous. As for the towels, my dog had better, really worn and a grey colour. Have never stayed in a holiday home that was so disappointing. I got in touch with the owner who just fobbed me off! Chuck the manager was great with the booking payment etc so no worries there. I do agree it is in a great place, so close to shopping and a lovely little lagoon to swim in if you don't want to walk to far when it is hot. Also there was no electric kettle at the time and we had to boil up a pot of water for tea, microwave water just does not cut it. Perhaps another apartment would be better for future holidays for us as I would not trust the pictures on the Aloha Condo site. ”

“ Thank you for your review and we appreciate the feedback. <br /> <br /> Our guests do sometimes stain the carpet and after several unsuccessful attempts to remove the stains by steam cleaning, we decided to replace the carpet with a simulated wood floor - it's more attractive, and easier to keep clean. This was completed in November of 2008.<br /> <br /> Although we have had no other complaints about the towels, our towels were replaced early this year (2009) when we brought in a new local contact and cleaning crew.<br /> <br /> Both we (the owners), and our local staff make guest satisfaction a high priority. Guests are provided with contact information and we do respond to all our guest's concerns.

“ It's a beautiful apartment with a gorgeous view. I found everything within the apartment, such as kitchen equipment, very adequate. Ala Moana Shopping Centre is close by, which made self-catering easy, and there's a little supermarket just on the corner if you don't fancy a walk. Waikiki is also handy in the opposite direction but if you'd rather avoid it, you can. The apartment is also within range of a pay as you go wireless network, which was useful for me. I wish I could have stayed longer, and would happily go back again. Loved the constant view of the sky and ocean, and the marina below. The only draw back was the high cleaning fee. However, it meant that the apartment was in very good condition. ”

“ We stayed here for our 19 day trip. It was great to have an apt. rather than a hotel. Location is great. Right near ala Moana Mall, the Hilton Hawaiian Village, ABC on the corner (of course). If you are here for two weeks + with a car, check into the part-monthly rate at the ProPark lot in the building. Very reasonable and the elevators go right from the lot to the floor. This unit had everything we needed for this family vacation. Kitchen is well stocked if you plan on cooking most of your meals like we did. Even has a rice cooker. Stop at Costco on your way from the airport or Walmart is only a mile away. There is a beach cooler and some ice packs so you can tote some drinks and /or lunch to the beach with you or on your day trips. At the time of our stay, the unit had a lot of beach toys, grass mat, 2 beach chairs to help out. We left some more grass mats and 5 boogie boards and an extra cooler to assist the next group. Beach towels are also provided in the unit. Both beds are comfortable. There is TV service, WiFi and an iPod dock/speaker system. Enjoy the Hilton fireworks right from your lanai with a Mai Tai. We got to do that three times. We would stay here again without hesitation. Shared lot of tourism tips in the guest book. We learned a lot from what others shared there so wanted to do the same.

Ala moana shopping mall is walking distance from the condo(takes only 10 minutes) and there is Mc.Donalds and aBC store just across the street. You can sweam at the llikai hotel pool for free. They have laundry on the 8th floor which cost $2 dollars. We had really pleasant stay and hope to visit this unit again. Thanks for everything Gary and Mary, you were wonderful and kind. ”

First time in a Condo

Masa from Los Angeles on 11/11/2011 said:
“ I've been to Oahu many times and have stayed in hotels in Waikiki. Most of the hotels are nice, but the rooms lack any space. Since I have used aloha Condos for my stays on the Big Island, this time I stayed in one of their condos on Oahu. The Ilikai marina was built in 1968, but the building itself is kept fresh, though they could use new carpet in the hallway leading to the rooms. Room 1188 seems to have been updated recently and was a very nice place to stay. I did not use the kitchen to cook, but the appliances were also undated. It was so much more relaxing to be in this condo, as opposed to a hotel. There is at least 3 times the room as a regular hotel. I would probably have to pay 3 times as much for a hotel room with just as much space and ocean view. All in all it is a great value, you get an ocean view, friday fireworks in the Marina, and room to spread out in a condo that is fresh and clean. I can't wait for my next visit. One hit against the building, not the condo or owner. Make sure you tell the parking lot attendant that you want a residential pass before you pay the first time. They won't refund your money, even if you are asking them about it as they are putting the money in the register. ”

The condo was very clean. I paid for parking in the garage beneath it and it was very convenient if you wanted to go to places outside of Waikiki - highly recommended, much less crowded and beautiful beaches, hikes etc. The view over the harbor from the balcony was great. Nice ammenities with lots of storage, good shower pressure, nice kitchen, and good to have an ipod player too! Bed was very comfortable. Overall, a great experience and much more room and cheaper than a hotel room. There is no pool, gym etc at the condo, but who needs them when you can do everything outside! ”

“ We stayed for two weeks in Ilikai Marina. The condo is clean, spacious, and comfortable. It has almost everything you wish for holidays. The only thing we missed a bit is a dishwasher. The pictures truly represent condo and views from balcony. We liked that although it is located in the heart of Waikiki it is very quite. Aloha Condos was quick to respond on any queries. And if you like a quite beach and morning jogging it is only 15 minutes walk to ala Moana Park. Only few observations (and some of them not even related to the condo): 1. Smell in the hallways, probably because of old carpets or / and garbage room. 2. Better cleanliness of the apartment would be great. 3. As mentioned by one of the reviewer, recycling bins and explanations what can be recycled would be excellent (we don't want to keep destroying beautiful Oahu :)). Otherwise as I mentioned to Garry this was one of the best vacations in our lives. Definitely will recommend to our friends, and hope to return soon. Thanks Gary and Mary. ”

“ The condo was awesome, especially for returning locals who have a car. Top of the list was the 180 degree ocean view from Hilton lagoon to ala Moana park from the living room/balcony and the bedroom (watch their excellent video - it says it all). The place was very clean, bright with natural light, well furnished, had a large SubZero fridge which was perfect for freezing our local delights we always bring back to the mainland. It was very quiet being a residence/condo-tel building. The large parking garage directly below the condo was very convenient for going in and out. It was very well stocked on kitchen and dining stuff. It even had a nice rack of spices to cook with. The king bed was very firm, and the pull out sofa sleeper was very comfortable with a memory foam top - very nice addition. The web site was very well designed, and the follow up emails were very informative, clear and simple. My family was very happy with my "find" at this condo. We will definitely be back. Thank you very much to Gary and Mary appel who I have never met but feel like I know them through their well thought out traveler's haven and emails. Aloha and Mahalo. ”

The only things I would fault it on would be the drapes in the bedroom and living room need replaced as they are torn and takes away the atmosphere of the condo. Also the sofa bed is a little uncomfortable to sit on but as we were not there that often it did not matter that much to us. It is a very quiet place and the views are spectacular! Only a short walk to beach and lagoon. Shopping is a mere 6 minute walk to huge shopping centre. A wonderful stay. Highly recommended. Susie Sydney Australia ”

The view is fabulous, the marina side is quiet for being right in Waikiki, and having the full kitchen really made a big difference in our stay. The location is a close walk to Ala Moana Mall, the Beachwalk shopping area and Waikiki. Watching the sunsets, water activities (and Friday night fireworks)from our lanai while drinking some fabulous 100% Kona coffee was a great vacation highlight. On site laundry on the 8th floor was helpful too. Hint: The higher floors are better if you are noise sensitive as the great bar/restaurant on the ground floor marina side stays busy late. If we were to want to stay in Waikiki again, this is where we would book. ”

“ The condo was exactly as described and pictured. It was immaculate, comfortably furnished and had a fantastic view of the marina and Honolulu's beautiful sunsets. The kitchen was the best equipped condo of any we have stayed in from Paris to Amsterdam and the building was very quiet. The attached parking garage (while a bit pricey at $17 per day) was very convenient and secure with unlimited in and out privileges. The owners were extremely easy to work with and very concerned that all of our needs were met. Any questions we had were answered promptly. We had a local contact along with the owners' email and phone numbers in case of any problems - of which there were none. Our only initial concern was locating the actual entrance to the building. Our GPS couldn't determine that while the street address is Ala Moana Blvd. the building and parking garage are accessed via Hobron Ln. between The Red Lobster and Charter House restaurants. Having laundry facilities on the 8th floor near the elevators was convenient. Just remember to bring plenty of quarters and your own soap & fabric softener since there are no change machines or product dispensers. The only other comment concerns the carpeting in the hallways - it is in need of a deep cleaning and some TLC. This, however, is an issue for the complex not this specific unit. We had a great stay and have already told many friends that we would highly recommend this unit as the perfect place to stay while enjoying Honolulu, Waikiki and the island of Oahu. ”

Ala Moana Shopping Centre is close by, which made self-catering easy, and there's a little supermarket just on the corner if you don't fancy a walk. Waikiki is also handy in the opposite direction but if you'd rather avoid it, you can. The apartment is also within range of a pay as you go wireless network, which was useful for me. I wish I could have stayed longer, and would happily go back again. Loved the constant view of the sky and ocean, and the marina below. The only draw back was the high cleaning fee. However, it meant that the apartment was in very good condition. ”

“ I sent my Son and His family there for Spring break. I lived across the street at the Tradewinds and knew people in the condos that is how I knew to contact Aloha My family is raving about their vacation. The condo was perfect except the coffee maker which did not work. I have reported this but no response from the owner or rental agency. The pullout sleeper was not comfortable but they took turns so no one had to sleep on it every night and all survived The condo is close to everything and a gorgeous view. No complaints that I know of and will rent again We will rent again ”
Manager response:
“ The coffee maker has been replaced. ”
