Condo 790,like all the Marina condos, faces directly out to sea at the water's edge, whereas the main Ilikai building faces out diagonally. There is nothing like waking up and seeing the full ocean panorama at sunrise. The Marina is ideally located between Waikiki beach and the ala Moana park and shopping center. 790 is well-equipped and well-maintained. Owner's emails helped us to locate the Marina and move in after a late-evening arrival. You will notice that 790 has a better combination door lock than other condos on the floor - it eliminates the hassle of a lockbox and separate key when you walk back to the condo with an armful of groceries from the nearby Foodland supermarket. We would happily return to 790 for another stay in the future.

The condo was nice and comfortable. We had plenty of room for 4 people and the sliding wall separating the bedroom from the living area was perfect for a kid's earlier bedtime.
The location was wonderful as it was located a short walk to the Hilton lagoon and a nice beach. A short walk to a bus was a nice option when we went to the aquarium and a 1-day car rental was close when we wanted to explore more of the island.
There were a couple of very small cleanliness issues that need improvement such as replacing musty-smelling small kitchen rugs. For my stay, I simply put the rugs in the cleaning closet and left a note for the cleaning staff.
Overall, the condo was a great fit for our family.

Had a great time! The location of this unit is perfect for beach, shopping, restaurants, and the view is wonderful. The staff we met were very helpful, and the unit itself was all we needed.
The kitchen is a bit tired and needs updating and better lighting. The sofa is done and needs replacing.

The only reason I did not rate this 5 Stars Overall is because the balcony is so tiny that it was barely large enough for the two small chairs placed on it. We would have loved to have been able to lounge outside. Otherwise we were very pleased with our marina/ocean view, location, and comfort. We would definitely recommend this site; the owners were very good to deal with.

The condo is located in a quieter area of Waikiki and just a very short walk to the beach. Kids loved that it was soo close to the ala Moana shopping center! The condo was adequately supplied and the king size bed was great. This is a good, affordable alternative to a hotel if you want to cook a few meals and have some extra room.

We were happy that the condo was everything that it was advertised as. It was very homey,clean and comfortable. When we first arrived my daughter noticed that the shower drain was plugged. We called management, and a plumber arrived and fixed the problem right away. The manager even called back later to check on the situation, which we really appreciated.
We were on the island for our sons' wedding, and most of our family members stayed in nice hotels. We were quite happy with our decision to stay in the condo.
The rent was very reasonable and we were able to fix some of our meals there.
Our daughter and her friend said that the sofa bed was not the most comfortable, but they managed to sleep ok. My husband and I were very comfortable in the king sized bed.
We really enjoyed the Marina view and the location in general.

My wife and I came for a 5 day visit for our anniversary and very much enjoyed our short stay in unit 790. The location and view are outstanding! The bed is very comfortable as well. We have enjoyed this location (Ala Wai Marina) for many years because it is convenient to the activities of Waikiki, yet it is somewhat removed from the crowds and traffic. Added pluses are its access to parking right in the building and the short distance to the ala Moana Park and Beach area which are virtually "next door"!

My spouse, 2 year old son and I stayed in this condo for a full week and it was perfect for us! Definitely large enough for a family of 3. We were very happy as soon as we walked into to find the sweeping views across the Marina/Ocean and the clean/spacious condo! As others have stated the condo is stocked with kitchen supplies, books about Oahu, beach towels, sand toys, boogie board,etc...
The updated bathroom was great and also, the king sized bed was very comfortable!
The reservations, check in, check out, etc was effortless! Definitely recommend this condo for those looking to stay very near, but not in Waikiki! Thank you for a wonderful stay!

On the days mentioned above, my husband, adult daughter and I stayed in condo number 790. We were not excited to be in the business of Waikiki and so were very glad to find that your condo was in such a beautiful and quiet neighborhood. The parking garage was handy for in and out parking and oh. so convenient. The very best thing about the condo was how perfectly it was stocked and supplied. I can't imagine what we could have needed that wasn't provided for us.
Thank you so much! If ever we are able to return to Oahu, we'll be in touch with you right away to secure a return visit to condo number 790 at Ilikai Marina.
Our daughter left her camera and Mary found it and promised to send it to her. Of course we will pay for the shipping. Susan will be so glad to have her camera returned. She takes a lot of pictures and actually sees her vacation in more detail through her photography(she has very low vision). So many thanks to Mary for her kindness in finding a pretty important part of our happy vacation.

My wife and I have been visiting hawaii for over thirty years and have stayed in various accommodations. 790 at the Ilikai Marina has to rank one of the best from our experiences.
We very much enjoyed our stay here at a very clean,
fresh and well equipped unit with very tasteful decor and quite adequate room space;
The view is superb, the Marina, the ocean, palm trees, sunsets and all - its Hawaii!
We found the owners to have very professional and hospitable approach to dealing with setting up the rental, providing very courteous and timely e mail information, etc., couldn't be easier.
We liked it all and have no complaints; Mahalo !

This tiny condo was perfect for us because we only sleep there, and enjoy walking to restaurants, beaches and parks. Too bad parking there is so expensive ($ 17.00 a day??) The kitchen could use a sharp knife or two for those of us who like to cook. Looked like they decided not to provide them because sommebody obviously used the formica counter as a cutting board. Beach towls and umbrella were a plus. Bathrooom remodel,impressive. Very quiet neighbors.Management needs to implement its well posted NO SMOKING policy to thr hired painters who worked all week when we were there and stunk up the parking garage which affected the hallways.

The location was great, the condo was adequate.They definitely need a new sofabed, it was very old and uncomfortable.
The main problem we had was the street noise,coming from the bar below and the garbage trucks very early in the mornings.
The building is quite old and could use some updating.Seeing cockroaches when we came out of the stairwell on the main floor was rather gross, considering that is where the restaurants are located.
We would likely stay there again, perhaps on a higher floor.
”
Manager response:
“
The Ilikai Marina is in fact a quiet location. There is only a single lane access road separating the building from the beautiful Marina. The garbage truck comes and goes in the morning. If one is super-sensitive to sound the easiest way to avoid the truck noise is to shut the lanai door in the living room for that period of time. The bedroom is completely quiet if you shut the sliding door separating it from the living room. As the building is concrete construction there is no noise transfer between the units.<br />
<br />
For sleeping the sofa bed is not as comfortable as the King size Simmons Beautyrest bed in the bedroom. However as sofa beds go it is extremely comfortable as a day time sofa. Extra foam has been added to make it more comfortable for a good night's rest.<br />
<br />
The Ilikai Marina is always kept to a high standard of cleanliness. The ground floor has attractive landscaping, and is completely open to the outside, which is one of its charms. The building is treated for insects on a regular basis.

Gillian and I have stayed in our condo for little over two weeks. It was our first chance to fully enjoy the condo after we bought it in May 2009 and completely renovated it. The weather was great and every morning we went to the beach in front of the Hilton for a long swim. This beach is probably the best swimming beach in Waikiki. We managed to view three sets of Friday fireworks from our lanai. Our condo experience fullfilled our dreams and expectations.

We found everything to be just as advertised. This was our second time staying at this condo, and it met our needs perfectly.We were within walking distance to everything, or we could hop a bus.We had a wonderful view of the ocean and Marina. The bed was so comfortable, just like home. We liked being able to get our own meal if we so wished. The kitchen was well stocked with everyhing we could every need. It truly felt like a home away from home, and help was only a phone call away if we needed anything.

At first sight the suite looked great, comfortable and clean. Then we
found some small bugs racing around the kitchen counter the next
day. A couple of days later we saw a cockroach on the kitchen wall.
We told the manager of the building and she gave us some bug traps
which did nothing to get rid of them. We decided we would just avoid
the kitchen and not let these critters spoil our vacation. After we came
home we sent photos which we had taken of those bugs to the
person/company that we had corresponded with to secure the rental
suite. No real apologies came back.
My advise to to find out if they did anything to the bug problem since
November of 2007.

We've stayed in this unit for a week and had a great time. The location is perfect, the view is beautiful. Parking is not a problem, we always found a spot in the free area nearby but if you don't, you can park in the attached garage for a fee. Waikiki beach area is walking distance, shops are walking distance. This is just a great little place to stay if you do not want to stay in a hotel or you want to save a little money. The unit is a bit outdated but clean, comfy and nothing was broken. You will find everything in the kitchen what you need for cooking. Bring beach towels though since those in the unit are small and not the best quality for water absorbtion. We highly recommend this unit to stay in, and we will deffinately return one day!!!
