My friend and I had the pleasure of staying in apartment 1590 recently for one week. Kat, who it was organised through was extremely professional, very proactive and had provided us with all the information we needed. Arrival was so easy and well explained by Kat and we were so impressed with the spectacular sunset view from the lanai. Yes, it is small, but that was expected due to previous comments we had read. My friend found the queen size bed extremely comfortable in the room and I found the sofa queen bed really comfortable for me too. For us this apartment was ideal as we had wanted two separate sleeping areas, a nice view and we wanted a place not too far from Waikiki action- though not amongst the hustle and bustle either. This was perfect. We were able to do 15 minute power walks along the beach to get into Waikiki Beach, though had the option on a $7 cab ride in if we wanted to as well...
We will definitely be recommending this apartment to friends. Thank you Kat for being so efficient also...

The condo was very clean and basic, well stocked with many handy items for use on the beach, such as straw mat, boogie board, etc. Very nice scenery.
The hallway is a little bit run down but acceptable. Easy access to aBC Store and eateries, almost walking distance to the large mall and Wakiki Beach. The firework on Friday night at 9 was quite spectacular.
Parking is not as convenient, the parking below was $7 for 10 hours or you pay $20 for the whole day. Free parking on the left hand side is only for a maximum of six hours per day. The meter is a dollar per hour.

The view was excellent - the best part of the experience, but there were numerous problems. The deadbolt key did not work--difficult to deal with for the new and tired arrival. The bed was so hard and uncomfortable that my husband had to sleep on the pull out sofa (first time he has ever slept away from me). There was no flat sheet for that bed. The coffee pot was too small for the coffee machine so didn't release the coffee. But Jim and Kat responded and resolved problems immediately. But why so many problems?? We expected a relaxing vacation, not a series of problems to resolve.

Stayed here as we are selling a home here on Oahu but live in California. I wanted to stay in Waikiki to be close to the action. This place is a gem. So it's just a bit dated and you don't have housekeeping service daily but I had access to a washer and dryer (& they are available here on the property). You have an amazing ocean view & Hilton Lagoon view which can't be beat & the parking garage and things to do are right down stairs and you can't beat that! Consider this place it is well cared for!

Kat, the condo manager, was always very professional and friendly and promptly answered all the queries we had prior to our stay. The location of the condo was ideal. Far enough away from the noise of busy Waikiki beach but still central to transport, shopping and sightseeing. The room was clean and tidy and great value for money. The view from the balcony is to die for. We will definitely be seeking Kat for another booking again in the future.

I was in a hurry to find a place to stay in Honolulu as I had a job interview that came up suddenly. I had stayed at the Marina before and found that it was the perfect location. Happily, Condo 1590 was available for the dates I needed on a short notice. The place was perfect for what I needed. It is clean and has all the necessary requirements for my stay. Being on the 15th floor allows you to see everything. I will stay there again when I come back to Hawaii. Great for the money!

We stayed in a 15th floor condo, with our family next door. The condo is in a perfect location, close to shopping, beach and restaurants. I liked the fact that we were privded with beach towels, beach chairs, umbrellas and mats. The only negative for us was the size of the balcony. We love to sit out on a balcony and see the water, however it really is only big enough for one person. This is our only disappointment.

Our stay at Ilikai Marina Condo 1590 for a week at the end of March 2011 was an outstanding experience marred only by the accidental severing of the water mains by road constructors (happily only hours before we shifted out). Checking in and out was painless (not least because of the detailed information supplied beforehand) and the condo itself was perfect for our needs. Moreover, with a balcony looking out of the waterfront, this was indeed a case of experiencing Waikiki in the front row but at an affordable price.

This condo was exactly as it was described on the website. It is not new and glamorous but was very clean and a reasonable price. The fully equipped kitchen saved us a lot of money in meal costs. Communication with the property manager prior to arrival was great! The only negatives are minor: 1. the lockbox on the door for the keys was a cylindrical combination lock, not with buttons as described in the arrival instructions. 2. The bed in the bedroom was quite hard and uncomfortable. 3. Read the instructions on the back of the front door for the correct instructions on connecting to the wireless. Other than these small quibbles, it was a positive experience.

Booking through alohacondos.com was easy and flawless. The unit was as advertised, very clean, well appointed, comfortable and had everything we needed. It made for a very relaxing, easy holiday. Great views and sunsets from the balcony overlooking the marina. It's not located in the thick of Waikiki beach (the sandy beach is a short walk away), but is much better value than the hotels there, and for our family, it's nicer to have a "home" to hang out at. Very convenient walking distance to the huge ala Moana shopping mall, which has everything you might need.

We have just returned from our stay in Condo 1590. All I can say is the view is impressive. The condo on a whole is comfy& clean, the kitchen has been revamped, so cooking is no hassle, bathroom adequate.
Waking to the view, of ocean,boats,people in water,planes,ships it never stops,but that adds to the atmosphere of this apartment. We didn't dine out, instead we bought dinner at Red Lobster (next door), drinks from the aBC store across the street, raced upstairs & sat at the table & watched the lights of the surrounding area. The fireworks on Friday night (8pm) what a bonus.
The downside - the bed was hard.
The added touches of tote bag, pen & notepad - very handy, chocolates on the bed, also the use of beach towels & umbrella - very thoughtful. We actually stayed twice in the same apartment on return trip from Big Island.
Also the booking agents were very helpful & willing to answer all your queries.

Watching the morning surfers was like a ritual for me at breakfast time and the sunsets are just postcard from the balcony.

I reserved this place for my extended family to attend a conference and was a bit worried because I didn't get a chance to check it out first.
I should not have been worried; my family (including my 85 year old aunt!) had a great time! They had nothing but good things to say about the location, the views, and the care from the management staff. They made me more jealous that I didnt get to go! :)
It is apparently close to the heart of downtown with easy access to restaurants, groceries and shopping and the views are great.
I am looking forward to staying here when next I go to Hawaii.

We had a great stay at Ilikai Marina #1590. This is a great ocean-facing condo. A bit far away from the action of Waikiki beach but pretty close to the family oriented activities in the Hilton Hawaiian Village. Service was impeccable with a local representative - Kat - who stays on the island. she can take care of all your needs right away. We had a late flight and Kat graciously extended our check-out time. With two small kids, that was a life saver. Will definitely recommend to everyone.

The unit exceeded my expectations...not new but well maintained and very clean. The bed was very comfortable and the view was spectacular! Fortuantely I was there during a full moon and the moon over the ocean and the lights in the Marina below was something like you would see on a postcard. The location was perfect. Very central to everything. I didn't have a car so I avoided the $17/day parking charge by using the city bus and trolley system. You can get everywhere you want to go on the island for a very minimal fee. Went to Pearl Harbor for $2.50. The Fireworks at the Hilton on Friday night were spectacular. Traveling alone I felt very safe with the security guard on duty down stairs. Kat is my hero. She made my first trip to Hawaii the best experience I could have ever hoped for from answering all my questions promptly via e-mail before I booked the room to calling me after I arrived to make sure I had everything I needed. Kat! You're the best!

We were hoping that the pictures of the unit were what the unit actually looked like and boy were we happy when we arrived. Although the condo is not new, it was very clean and well maintained. The lanai is small but the view was fantastic! We watched the waves in the morning over breakfast while we planned our day and saw the beautiful sunsets in the evening. The fireworks display at the Hilton was great. Just grab a cooler and step out on the lanai and watch the show. The location is excellent, right by the beach. Shops and restaurants are less than 5 min walk.We had requested a late check-out, which is a nice option, but even with that we would have to sit at the airport for hours. I phoned our local contact person, Kathaleen and asked if we could possibly leave our bags at the unit or where we could pay to leave the bags. To our great pleasure Kathaleen informed us that the unit was not booked for the day and we could use the condo until we had to leave. Wow! Kathaleen you rock! We had a fantastic time time at the Ilikai Marina. Aloha,

I ended up in Honolulu by myself with family members staying at a hotel on the strip. I felt my accommodations were far better than theirs, and for about the same price. I had a gorgeous view of the Gilligan's Island marina, they had a view of the roof of an adjoining building. They were smack in the middle of the touristy area, I could get to it and away from it at will, which I loved. The staff at aloha Condos could not have been more helpful and bent over backward to take care of me.
Also, you are right next to the Hilton Complex, which is huge, and easy to access. You can use their stores and restaurants, and their beach, and no one bothers you. It is kind of fun to watch all of the weddings that constantly go on during the weekends. The closest Starbucks is also over there. Proximity to their grounds more than made up for the condo not really having much of a lobby area...and they have fireworks on Friday evening which are really close to this condo.
A couple of hints. Don't rent a car and don't use the cheesy tourist trolley: it is way overpriced! Also, you'll spend all of your time trying to find parking in the Waikiki area. The city bus is easy to use, especially if you have Google maps on a PDa. Each trip is $2.25, and if you make them give you a voucher for the return trip then that is for free. $17 a pop to keep a car overnight seemed high, and aloha Condos makes sure that everyone understands that cost. You can rent a car in three separate places near the condos if you want to tour the island for a single day or two. Don't take it into the downtown areas at night...oh, and they have a guard on duty at the harbor condos every single night. I really appreciated that! Felt safe everywhere but downtown Honolulu (not the tourist strip, but over where the government buildings are) in the evening, even though it was still light out (had a function I had to attend).
