Ideal view, location and value. The best Waikiki accommodation

I've visited Waikiki 4 times over the years and stayed in various levels of accommodation namely the Waikiki Shore appartments, Sheraton Waikiki and the Outrigger on the beach. In my opinion the Ilikai Marina represents the best combination due to being an apartment with full kitchen, having a perfect unobstructed ocean+marina view, conveniently located between the Hilton lagoon and the ala Moana shopping center. Then there is of course the significant price advantage over a hotel stay or even other comparable apartments. The apartment itself is fully equipped with everything you could require. My only slight misgiving would be the size of the lanai which although serves its purpose is a little small (room for two chairs and a small table only).
The other significant plus is the owner Shahin who is very easy to deal with and provides first class support for any questions or issues you may have. I would certainly stay in condo 786 again.

My first visit to Hawaii was most definitely enhanced by our stay at Condo 786. Waking up to views across the marina to the ocean was a great way to start each day.Watching the fabulous sunsets from our lanai was a great way to finish the day. A small disadvantage of this western outlook was the sun streaming in during the afternoon necessitating drawing of the curtains. See-through climate control blinds would have been appreciated. Nevertheless, close proximity to beaches and shops of Waikiki, and pickup points (for local and tour buses) made daily activities easy and pleasureable.Our compliments to alice, the local manager,who handled a small maintenance issue with speed and coutesy. Email negotiations and contacts with the owner made the booking arrangements easy and personal.

I really enjoyed my 12 day stay. It is a great location and unlike other rentals I have had in Honolulu one does not suffer with noise problems here. Having the Parking Station next door connected to the Building was very convenient when I picked up a rental car. Condo was very well furnished.

I thoroughly enjoyed staying at the vacation rental. The room was spacious, clean, and had an excellent view. I also appreciated that there was ample parking in the building's lot. I worked late every day and it was nice to know I always had a convenient spot to park my car.

I was very very pleased with the unit. It was clean, everything worked, and the location was just perfect. It was nice that the Kamehameha Day parade went by the Marina. I recommend this unit if you don't want to be in to far in Waikiki. I would stay again in this unit.

My husband and I decided to book this condo during our first vacation to Hawaii for our anniversary. If you want to stay in Waikiki but don't necessarily want to be in the heart of all the action, then this location is perfect for you. Very convenient to ala Moana Shopping Center, Ala Moana Beach Park, Hilton Lagoon area, and more. The condo itself was great, with only very minor cleanliness issues (i.e. I had an item roll under the bed, and noticed it did not appear to be vacuumed under there - quite dusty). Other than that though, everything you could need comes with the condo: towels, sheets, beach chairs, a boogie board, wide assortment of kitchen items, roll of paper towels, 3 rolls of toilet paper, a bar of soap, and dish soap. Bottom line: I would definitely stay here again in a heartbeat when visiting Hawaii in the future.

This condo provided everything we needed. The kitchen was well equipped. Bed was comfortable, as was the pullout couch. Be prepared to pay for the parking. Close to beach, park and shopping for walkers and right on the trolley transit route. Beautiful view of the ocean just over the tops of sailboat masts - not through them. The restaurant/bar below was not too loud to bother us and we actually enjoyed the sounds of jazz sax on a few nights while sipping a beverage on the lanai. Our only observation that could be changed is that the bathroom fan sounds a bit like a plane taking off- it is quite loud. The internet met all the needs of our 15 year old son and it was great to be able to make local calls from the unit. We had other family members come over for supper and the table expanded nicely - there are only six chairs so we had to improvise for the two others we needed. We were ther over New Years and it was great to be able to stay in the comfort of the condo and our own beverages to watch the fireworks from the lanai. The lanai is small only two people but there is plenty to see, susnsets. whales, surfers, planes, sailboats, birds, and of course there are always a few people to watch on the street below. We were glad that we chose the ocean view as the other view looking towards the mountains overlooked a parkade. the condo provided beach towels and we left a boogie board there,couldn't quite figure out the red beach chair. All in all yes we would stay there again.

We loved staying at Ilikai Marina Condo 786. It is located within 5min from Rainbow Hilton Tower and Hawaiian Village. Condo was neat and cozy. We were surprised to find more kitchenware that we could possible hope for and all needed beach supplies (towels, chairs, etc). Unit also had TV and unlimited WiFi access. Ac worked quite well. Laundry room was available in the building, but not on the same floor as condo. Would highly recommend, if you would like to spend quality time for less.

We really appreciated the location. We enjoyed a harbour/sunset view without paying the price of a hotel on Waikiki beach. It was convenient/close to the great bus system on Oahu. It was also within easy walking distance to the ala Moana shopping mall and the Waikiki strip. The bed was king size and comfortable - always important! The unit was spacious and comfortable. The lanai was very tiny and not really good for spending any time on, but the view was great. The kitchen was very functional but the stove wasn't working when we were there so a hot plate was provided. We had planned on cooking but couldn't really so eating out was necessary and that is expensive. The hot plate was not great as it took a very long time to boil water for a cup of tea! I also called the cleaning service as one of the bedroom side lamps was broken. She said no problem, but never came to fix or replace it so we had to move a living room lamp to the bedroom for the week. The cleaning service fee is way too high.

Thank you for your comments. <br />

Unfortunately the glass surface stove broke when another guest dropped a heavy object on it. <br />
<br />
To my surprise, there was no similar stove on the island and I had to order one and wait for it to arrive. ;-( <br />
<br />
I placed a hot plate during the wait period.<br />

I stayed previously at this condo about a year ago. At the time I forgot to leave a review. This time I didn't forget. As one year ago this condo experience was great. Great location in Waikiki, very close to shopping and entertainment. Beach is just steps away and an incredible 180 degree view from the patio. The condo is clean, has a full kitchen, wireless internet and cable tv. The bed is huge and extra comfortable. The owner of thee unit is a real gentlemen, I assure you that. He will always try to make all your requests possible.
I will be back in Unit 786 very soon.

My parents and I stayed here in Jan, and we truly enjoyed our stay - like a home away from home for us! We also loved the view of the marina and the pacific ocean. The location is convenient too.
One minor thing - I wish there were door/window screens so that we could open the door and window without having to worry about bugs/birds coming in.

It was an absolute pleasure to return to my "hometown" and spend it in such a wonderful condo at the Ilikai Marina. Waking up every morning to the beautiful view of the Marina and the best sunrise. Sunsets was also spectacular.It was very comfortable, well equipped and convenient. Hope it will be available the next time I get to return "home" again.

A wonderful place to stay for spring break with my daughter, and 5 year old grandson. The views of the marina, ocean and sunset are unbeatable. The unit was very comfortable and spotlessly clean. It felt spacious and I liked the way one could always look out at the amazing view without being over-cluttered with too much furniture.
The Lagoon and Beach were really close, and an easy walk for a 5 year old and so we could easily go to and fro during the day. It was really good value, and I would recommend this as a great place to stay for anybody

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Waikiki, and having this condo had a great deal to do with that. It was very clean. The kitchen was well supplied. All necessary linens were supplied. There was even a fold-out crib for our youngest. The view over the harbour was amazing...some of the nicest sunsets I have ever seen. I would definitely recommend this condo to couples or small families!
