Ilikai Hotel 1304, Honolulu Oahu

My Vacation

Condo was perfect for us. Close to everything. Would recommend this unit for a stay in Hawaii.

— Ross, Stayed 08/22/2019

Once Again at the Condo

We are repeat customers. Nice condo, well maintained, lots of little extras like chairs, etc.

— Steven C, Stayed 08/06/2019

1304 does it well

We had a wonderful time in 1304. The view of the marina and sunsets are relaxing. The unit is quiet and laid out very efficiently. The furnishings are comfortable and feel sturdy. The location is convenient with quick access to the bus, to Don Quijote... more and Walmart for groceries, walking distance to the park, the mall, and the center of action in Waikiki. All in all it was an amazing trip with 1304 serving us well. less

— Lani, Stayed 07/23/2019

Amazing

Unit was amazing. Absolutely loved it. Had everything you need if it’s not there you don’t need it. I would stay here again.

— Katy, Stayed 06/29/2019

Another great stay

My third time staying with Aloha condos. Great location, everything as described. Great views and well appointed. Although you are in the hustle and bustle of Waikiki the Ilikai is quiet, no parties or loud activities on lanais (there was one incident of loud music... more that lasted 2 minutes!). I love staying here and i doubt there is any better value for money in Waikiki. Mary. less

A wonderful November in 1304!

This was our first ever extended getaway to a warm climate; previous trips to the sun have been for a mere 7-10 days. We chose Honolulu because we knew that if needed, emergency health care would be reliable and it is an easy, nonstop flight... more from Vancouver. In a previous visit in February, we checked out many condos near Waikiki and chose the Ilikai because of it's proximity to the water and to shops for groceries, the buildings are well-cared for, as well as the location away from the madness of Waikiki. 1304 has been lovingly well-maintained and the owners obviously care about their suite and the comfort of any guests. We had most meals on the lanai (it was such a lovely place to eat breakfast and supper, why would you go to one of the overpriced Honolulu restaurants?) and found we could prepare simple meals quite readily with the implements and dishes provided in the kitchen. Thank you! For two people, 1304 was perfect. We enjoyed the various entertainment offered by the hotel on Fridays and Sundays, although could have done without the much-hyped 3 minutes of Hilton fireworks on Fridays. The beautiful sunsets are all that you need. Yes, you couldn't avoid the music but it always ended early so was not a disturbance; nor was the loud yoga instructor at the hotel next door a problem! One has to be realistic about what your are likely to experience at a downtown condo that happens to be on the beach. We only had noisy neighbours once for a few short hours. Only complaint was with the way the Ilikai handled a fire alarm one night at 1230 a,m.; we had to evacuate but were never told what exactly happened, and even after finally getting the "all clear" over the loudspeaker, the alarm continued to go off for about 2 hours telling us to get out. Very confusing! Ilikai needs to get their act together; a fire alarm is a serious issue when there are elderly people and families with small children in the building. One addition to the unit would be a shopping cart on wheels that one could use for grocery shopping. A pineapple is heavy to carry home, along with other groceries, so such a cart would be most desirable. But thank you for the many cloth shopping bags. Groceries are quite pricy in Honolulu, but goes with it's idyllic island location. Thank you to 1304 owners and to Aloha Condos management! Well done! less

Great spot

We enjoyed our time at the Ilikai Hotel Condos. It was an easy walk to Ala Moana shopping centre, and to the main part of Waikiki for dinner. The condo was very clean and well equipped, and had a lovely view out over the water.

— K, Stayed 11/05/2018

review stay Oct 16-19, 2018

The condo and location and view were excellent. My only complaint is that all the dishes and silverware were filthy. We had to wash everything before using them. thanks!

— Elizabeth, Stayed 10/26/2018

Condo1304

This condo has everything you need for a self catered holiday. The bed is super comfortable and the location is ideal if you want the ‘quieter’ end of town, beside the beautiful lagoon and eye catching marina. The beach is an easy 5 min walk... more and the Ala Moana shopping centre is just 2 blocks away. The bus stop for all attractions is at the front of the hotel. I loved my stay here and would highly recommend it for couples and young families. less

— Felicity, Stayed 10/06/2018

Great Apartment

Hey, This apartment is great place to stay. Excellent location, the property is nice and clean, in good condition, has good space and the amenities all work. The property has excellent views of the sunset, and I would definitely stay here again!! The management company... more was so easy to work with, had great communication. I would have no hesitation in recommending this apartment to any prospective holiday maker :) less

— Adam, Stayed 09/11/2018

Great place

Enjoyed the stay. Very clean, modern and spacious condo. Great location. Wonderful views and in the heart of numerous amenities. Highly recommend aloha condos and will stay here again next time we want to leave winter weather here in Alberta. Website and contact very friendly... more and accomodating. Thankyou Aloha Condos. less

— David, Stayed 08/25/2018

Great location

This was a great stay. The Ilikai is within walking distance to Waikiki beach, but just outside the whole hustle and bustle. Lots of options to eat -- you can walk to the mall for an amazing food court, or just stay right around the... more hotel. The bed is super comfortable, and we enjoyed sitting on the deck with coffee in the morning and wine in the evenings. The only suggestion I would make is to replace the mats in the bathroom with something absorbent. The kitchen mats in there now would remain wet for quite some time after a shower, which often made for a surprise if you went in there at night. less

— Leah, Stayed 08/20/2018

Perfect location

We found the unit clean cool and comfortable. The instructions were easy to follow and understand, thus no problems were encountered. Opening the door lock and connecting to WiFi was no problem at all. There was shopping and retaurant tips as well as bus service... more info. The kitchen was well equipped though we didn’t use it.. The convenient location near AlaMoana shopping mall and tour buses stops... was right at the doorstep. There was the ocean and yatch view direct from the lanai. We had a blissful stay and appreciate the hospitality and thoughtfulness of the owner. Mahalo 😊 less

— Nida, Stayed 08/10/2018

Again, a very pleasant stay

We returned to the same room we had in 2016 and again enjoyed the facilities and particularly the view. In fact, we are planning to spend another night in the same room in early September on our way back to Australia.

— Dennis, Stayed 08/01/2018

Great position

Thought overall very good just a few things There was no broiler rack in the oven, no potato masher A dishwasher makes a holiday complete Some nice fresh pillows would have been nice also the sheets especially the white ones were just plain awful, and... more the tea towels were worn and looked dirty as were the oven mits, the toaster could do with replacing. We had 3 and a bit weeks there and it was very comfortable just actioning The above things would make it really comfortable. less

1304 Ilikai Hotel

This was an excellent apartment. The hosts put a lot of thought and friendly aloha into their lovely condo. Clean, furnished nicely, very comfortable bed, great lanai and view of the Ala Wai Yacht Harbor, where I grew up. I would definately stay in this... more condo again and hope to book it for next hear. Mahalo for your wonderful hospitality and lovely apartment. less

— Colleen, Stayed 07/10/2018

Great place.

We enjoyed this condo very much. Great location and clean place. We would definitely stay here again!

condo

we really enjoyed our stay in Condo. Its showing its age a bit but we couldnt complain as it was well equipted with all the necessities . a very enjoyable week

— Jane, Stayed 06/04/2018

Review

The unit has been the same over the past few years that we've stayed there. It is like a home away from home for us and we hope when we leave it is as clean as we found it. Because of this we could do... more with one less cleaning per month. less

— Kenneth, Stayed 03/17/2018

Great stay

Wonderful stay in 1304. Well maintained unit overlooking my old digs at the marina. Got in some great swims at the magic island lagoon, and enjoyed mostly outstanding weather. In the heat of summer I think an east facing unit might be preferable but in... more January this one was perfect! It even has louvered screens for a bit of shade when needed and a nice fan to augment the tropical breezes and a super comfy stressless style recliner to take it all in in comfort. One complaint if you could call it that, it would be nice if the wifi code was written in big letters/numbers on a piece of tape on top of the box, maybe with a big arrow pointing to it! less

— Renard, Stayed 02/07/2018

Outstanding experience

We love the vibe of the Ilikai and the surrounding marina. Great view and easy access. We will continue to comeback.

— Joseph , Stayed 11/13/2017

Nice stay...

I've stay at this condo several times. It's very convenient close to pretty much anything. The down fall on this last trip was pool was shut down, I had some niece and nephew wanted to come visit and hang out bit couldn't. Parking is quite... more expensive, I don't get it if we stay in private condo parking is more. Does not make sense but it is what it is. Over all decent place if you don't like hotel stay... less

— Kingsley, Stayed 10/30/2017

Great View with Convenient Location

The Condo is situated a short walking distance from Waikiki Beach and has a great view of the Marina. Check in an Check out procedures were smooth and easy. The Condo is adequately equipped for a week or longer vacation stay. It has a full... more kitchen, King Sized Bed and Sleeper Sofa. The only recommendations I have would be to get rid of the carpet and go with tile flooring as it is much easier to keep clean. One of the glass panes on the Lainai door needs to be replaced and was covered with cardboard. less

— Michael, Stayed 09/07/2017

What a great find!

What a great find! I was a bit nervous about pre paying and the validity of the site but I needn't have worried. The unit was as described and the photos reflected reality. The view was wonderful and the kitchen well furnished. Having an access... more code entry is great. No waiting at reception when you arrive (and depart) and no swipe cards to worry about. We were two single adults traveling. Both the bed and the sofa bed were really comfortable and having a slider to close off the bedroom was great, it gave us privacy at night but opened up to a large room by day. I'm not sure how comfortable it would be with more than two adults, might get a bit cramped but certainly our stay was wonderful and I am recommending Aloha Condos to all my friends. less

— Mary, Stayed 07/23/2017

Location Location.

Aloha We selected suite 1304, firstly for its views and secondly for its central location – we were not disappointed. The suite is nicely appointed, comfortable bed, clean and well presented. The beach gear in the locker box on the lanai was an added bonus.... more For any one new to Honolulu, on Friday nights be sure to participate in the fireworks and Hula next door at the Hilton. We will more than likely return to Honolulu and there is no reason why we would not select suite 1304 again. Aloha Condos & Homes provided an awesome service. Their communications was first class and timely. We highly recommend these guys for your next booking. Bruce & April New Zealand less

— Bruce & April, Stayed 06/24/2017

Ilikai, Unit 1304

We enjoy 1304 mainly because of the view and the central location. It is kept clean and has been updated. The afternoon can be hot, being in the direct sun, but the fan we bought, and left, took care of that problem. We have been... more coming to the Ilikai for several years, the last six or seven years in 1304. We look forward to it each year. It's a bit like coming home. less

— Kenneth and Helen Reid, Stayed 03/17/2017

Relaxing

Loved suite 1304. Great view, quiet and well appointed. Everything one needs is in kitchen. Read a great book that was in bookshelf to. Would stay again.

— MURK, Stayed 02/08/2017

Great Stay

Enjoyed our 9 night stay in 1304. Great view. Super comfortable bed. Clean and well appointed although a bit dated. Appreciated the box full of beach extras that were on the lanai. For our last night in Waikiki we had to book into a regular... more Ilikai hotel newly renovated 24th floor suite. It was very nice but hardly worth the 75% surcharge. Would love to return for a longer stay in 1304 if it is available less

Condo 1304--Well equipped, wonderful views

We really loved our stay in the Ilikai Hotel Condo 1304 for our vacation this year. Everything was as described. Kitchen was particularly well equipped including coffee maker, toaster, oven and microwave. Window views of the marina and ocean were great. King sized bed was... more very comfortable, and we had a choice of pillows. For early arrival before 3 pm, leave your bags with the hotel baggage storage on the main floor. Hotel pool is warm, free towels supplied, and a great place with kids, also. Corner air conditioner tended to make that corner too cold and bed area warm. Fan helped the circulation of air. We found the Foodland on Hebron to be the best place for all our food needs. There are also a nearby ABC and a store in the hotel. For dining, we loved the 24-hour Wailana restaurant at Kalia, the Cinnamon cafe for breakfast, and Red Lobster next store for seafood. The boardwalk that starts at the Hilton lagoon goes all along the beach down to the Outrigger. (The Hilton has a lot of restaurants open to the public, too) The Zoo and Aquarium at the eastern end of Waikiki are fun for children; we went by bus ($1 if you are 65) rather than walk the 1 1/4 miles. The beach at Ala Moana park is great for children as it stays shallow 100 ft out.(10 minute walk to the west) less

— Reginald, Stayed 09/16/2016

Love that lanai

We enjoyed the views from the lanai with the boats, the rainbows and amazing sunsets. Also the pool and the proximity to activities. We would like to do it again next August.

— Edie, Stayed 08/28/2016

Fabulous Location

TWe really enjoyed our stay. The condo had a great view, was well equipped interior-wise but newer a hair dryer, had a comfortable bed, was centrally located to everything & had a lovely swimming pool. Even though the ala moana centre is close for shopping,... more make sure you visit a Ross store &/or the waikele outlet stores. Great rental car location across the road - keep yr eye out for really good deals before you leave home - Alamo a good start. less

— Sally, Stayed 07/29/2016

Lovely spot

We love this condo but were disappointed this visit in the limited supplies. No toilet paper beyond the initial roll...likewise with paper towels. Not even pepper in the kitchen...salt only. These items are not required, but since the ABC store across the street doesn't stock... more paper products, obtaining more was a pain. Seems to me an extra roll of t.p. would be nice. Maybe a single box of Kleenex, too. less

— Rebecca, Stayed 06/23/2016

#1304

We really enjoy #1304, having stayed there over the past 5 years. It's well kept, updated, and feels like home to us. We also appreciate the consideration re our dollar and the rent charged.

Excellent

Excellent, A++++

— Wataru, Stayed 12/28/2015

week in 1304

1304 came as advertised. We personally are used to and appreciated a King Bed. As stated in many reviews, the view is awesome. Watching the endless stream of fishing and sail charters coming and going was a great diversion. 1304 is situated in the complex... more such that the sun doesn't hit the lanai until mid afternoon, keeping things cool until then... then staying until the 6 awesome sunsets we experienced. Well appointed condo with beach chairs, rolly bag for beach and shopping, which we took advantage of on several occasions. Kitchen was super...only suggestion is to add a blender. The only reason we couldn't give a five star rating was the construction noise that disturbed the ambiance during the day...obviously not the fault of aloha condos or the owners.. less

— Rob E, Stayed 12/13/2015

Lovely Condo #1304

My husband and I enjoyed our 10 day stay at the condo. The view from the lanai was breathtaking with rainbows and beautiful sunsets! The kitchen was well-stocked, the king sized bed comfy, adequate water pressure from the shower but no tub, lots of storage,... more good wifi, working AC and much needed fan was available. The complaints are minor: seating (sofa, bar stools, leather recliner was just okay) was uncomfortable (condo should hold 4 people but in my opinion is adequate for 2) Email sent ahead of the trip (asking about parking) was never answered and too many copies of rules, rules on the door, in every email, and even one about taking off your shoes... rules, rules, rules... Did not give me the feeling of aloha. Nothing personal from the owner made the condo feel more business than being invited to someone's home but again, that's minor. We were visiting Hawaii, not the owner of Condo #1304. We would recommend The Ilikai Hotel and Condos to family and friends. less

— Suzan, Stayed 10/31/2015

A Top Hawaiian Experience

Completely satisfied and beyond expectations. Would be 5 stars but there ARE superbly plush sites in Hawaii if coin no object. This was the best check-in procedure and hotel room access we can recall, without the tour bus mobs that inflict even the most pricey... more competition. The room site and furnishings were handsome and delightful, and the owners had been truly thoughtful in providing for all reasonable contingencies. We felt that we had been invited to a friend's vacation digs. The ocean and Honolulu shore views across the yacht harbor from the broad sliders and balcony were grand. We have always enjoyed the Ilikai site (from 1966), and consider the access to Waikiki, Ala Moana and proper restaurants just fine. It was too (and unusually) hot for late August, with even the natives wilting, but the 1304 site did well (the sliding terrace shutters an appreciated plus. We do hope to inhabit 1304 again in the future, and will specifically request it. The Robinsons. less

— Gene & Carol, Stayed 09/11/2015

Pleasant studio/one bedroom with a view

We've stayed in this condo a couple of times and have enjoyed it both times. It's technically. One bedroom, but with sliding screen doors opens up to be a large studio when there are just the two of us. The kitchen is complete and open... more to the living room. Condiments and such are minimal so plan to pick up your own spices, etc. we love looking out over the yacht harbor from every room! The sofa can sleep more people if you have kiddoes with you. Nice but not pretentious. Casual comfort. We start with this one every time we search. less

— Rebecca, Stayed 09/05/2015

Ilikai 1304

The booking and entry process went great (door code access very helpful). The condo had a lovely view of the ocean and the marina with a roomy enough lanai. Everything you need is there with a well stocked kitchen and good choice of tv channels... more and reliable internet. Lots of personal touches in the condo and comfortable bed. As we were there during a very hot and humid stretch in August we found the window A/C unit could not quite keep up but the stand up fan provided circulated air quite effectively. We did not discover the restaurant in the hotel (cinnamon's?) until the end of our stay which is unfortunate as we would have had more meals and drinks there. Also the spa in the hotel offers a 30% discount to guests and I had a wonderful massage there. less

— Michelle, Stayed 08/31/2015

An Excellent Place

The room is perfect for us because we have older people and a little kid, and it has a divider to seperate the place. The condo's location is excellent. It is close to beach. Most importanly, it has a nice view out the balcony and... more it is quiet. less

— qq293, Stayed 08/26/2015

Satisfied and Desirable

It was enjoyable for us to stay at your Ilikai Condo, room number 1304. The scenery from the room was beautiful, especially at sunset. We usually stayed at western part of Oahu, such as Ko’Olina, Makaha or Turtle Bay for three weeks or so when... more we were in Oahu. We parked our car at Ilikai Marina. The fee, $20.00/day was expensive. Various tools you provided for us on the lanai were very helpful, when we went swimming to Kailua beach. But the chairs in your room were not properly paired. We did not feel at ease, when four of us had a meal all together around the counter. And dish washing machine is desirable. less

View spectacular, condo was tired

Beach access was further than expected Great area for walking & shopping Best was the view Least was the bathroom

— Brian G, Stayed 12/19/2014

very nice stay

very nice stay. condo well represented by photos. older building but quiet and clean. AC worked well and nice view of marina. walking distance to beach and restaurants and shops nearby. condo is not huge, a bit small for large family, but still much bigger... more than standard hotel room. just if you are expecting a huge condo, it is not. I attended a convention at the Hawaii convention center and it was a 10-15 min walk. very convenient experience were you do not need to check in to hotel, just walk up to your room and use the key pad and walk in. not any complaints at all. maybe lighting in bathroom is a bit dim and also the free wifi worked, but was really slow-- but that was about it. very pleasant stay and good value. less

— smileyguy647, Stayed 09/20/2014

View & location are awesome!

We located this unit on the aloha Condo web site. The booking & check-in/check-out process was one of the smoothest that we have ever had. The unit was exactly as was depicted with the pictures & details. The view was awesome. We love watching boats... more & planes, so spent many hours on the lanai or opened the curtains wide and had the same view from nearly anywhere in the unit. Yes you could hear the planes/boats but to us that just added to the charm. Hotel has everything you need. Short walk to bars/restaurants/shopping/etc & all of our tours picked up in front of the hotel. The smoked detector started beeping on the first day, so a quick email & prompt reply had someone replacing the battery that same day. As stated in one of the reviews, the bathroom is a little dark. I just put my make-up on in the kitchen or on the lanai. This issue could be easily fixed with a quick change of the bathroom light fixture. We would definitely book this unit again. less

— Gord & Sheila, Stayed 01/31/2014

Excellent location and view, however up-dating needed to justify

Excellent service from Condo Management.Pictures do not protray up-dating needed. Condo was satisfactory for the months stay however the bed requires replacing and furniture rearranged away from air-conditioning unit. The owners provided beach supplies as well as information on shopping, transportation and restaurants that was... more appreciated. The condo has every thing needed for an enjoyable stay. less

— A FlipKey verified reviewer, Stayed 01/14/2014

What a beautiful Condo and fantastic location

We had a wonderful 9 days staying in Condo 1304. Great views and sunsets each night, positioned close enough to the Waikiki madness and yet far enough away to relax. The unit was very clean, comfortable and had everything we wanted in a room. We... more definitely will return in the future. less

— A FlipKey verified reviewer, Stayed 10/25/2013

Almost perfect!

We had a very nice time and enjoyed the room- mostly the beautiful sunsets. The only thing I personally disliked was the lack of lighting in the bathroom. It was hard to see to put on makeup, etc. Please improve the lighting or put a... more mirror, or mirror wardrobe doors. There was a small area above the closet that looked damaged and some damaged floor tile. I was a bit worried someone would think I did that so I took photos of the damage, just in case. Of course the whole unit could use remodeling or updating, but it was certainly livable. Really wish there was a workout room available, nearby. less

— Joanie & Ken, Stayed 08/21/2013

cozy stay at the Ilikai

We were in town for a soccer tournament for 10 days with my family of four. There are two adults, a very tall teen and a tween. The condo was just the right size for what we needed. It had everything we needed as well.... more The kitchen was stocked so we could cook, there were containers and wrap for the food (which is nice and saved us a huge expense). The only thing that I have to comment on is the bed is listed as a King and it is clearly not. We have a King size bed at home because my hubby is 6'5" and he hung off of the bed in this condo. The bed was comfy though and we still had great night sleep. The condo is at the end of the Waikiki beaches which was nice because it wasn't right in the heart of things...but yet walking distance to everything. less

— A FlipKey verified reviewer, Stayed 06/27/2013

Spectacular View

Small but very comfortable for a couple. Very beautiful ocean view. At one time our parents lived on the 19th floor with an ocean view and we always remember how spectacular the view was - we had the opportunity to revisit those memories by staying... more in condo 1304. less

— Bruce & Mary, Stayed 06/13/2013

Clean and relaxing with good ocean view.

Condo was clean, nice with all the amenities. Ocean side view was spectacular. Location was good, easy walk to a nice beach, great restaurants and shopping. Easy access to public transportation (Trolley) Over all experience was very good. Only negative was when booked, was told... more condo had a king bed, but in reality was only a queen. less

Once again an aloha Condo vacation

This was out fourth vacation at the Ilikai Hotel and the third through aloha Condos. This was our first time in Unit 1304. The kitchen is well supplied. The bedding is very comfortable. The view over the harbour provides wonderful sunsets. However, we did find... more that we prefer the lagoon view. The unit was very clean and ready on time. less

— Happy Camper, Stayed 02/02/2013

We had a wonderful stay in 1304

This unit was very clean. It has everything that you need,I took a hair dryer but no need, the unit as one. You can't beat the ocean view, we spent hours on the deck. The location was great, right on the beach, bus right outside... more the door. Grocery stores within walking distance. I guess the only negative thing I would say is that the unit probably needs a new couch. We will certainly stay there again less

— Gordon Smith and Marie Decker-Smith, Stayed 12/13/2012

Made our Stay

This condo just felt right from the minute we walked in for our six night stay. Fabulous views with so much to watch going on, it was hard to tear ourselves away from the amazing sunsets. Location suited us as we found the beach at... more this end of Waikiki much less crowded. The condo was clean with great storage and kitchen equipment. But it was the little touches that made it home from home - books, CDs, beach gear. We would definitely book this condo again if we come back to lovely Hawaii! less

— Pauline & Tom, Stayed 10/17/2012

They're not kidding when they say Hawaii is a "Paradise".

From beginning to end, every need was met. We were glad we had a harbor view. That is why we picked Unit 1304. Everything we needed was in the condo. The only "problem", for lack of a better word, was that at first we thought... more the only place to purchase food was an aBC store, where milk is $10 a gallon; however, we found Food Land after a couple of days, which was much more affordable. We didn't eat at the condo that much, but we preferred to spend our $$$ on activities instead of food from a "minit market". The staff was very attentive. We had a five-hour gap from check out until our plane left, and the bellmen were more than glad to store our luggage for a nominal fee so that we could make one last spin to the shops and to eat before we headed to the airport. He even scheduled ourshuttle to the airport. Bring lots of "tip" money. The Ilikai is perfectly located if you like to walk, which we did. We could be in the hub of things in five minutes. Our unit was clean and nicely decorated. It was very quiet, too, but the best part is the million dollar view. It's not the fanciest hotel/condo, but all services that are offered at the high end hotels were offered to us at the Ilikai. less

— Kelly and Susan, Stayed 08/01/2012

Too much fun

My husband and I brought our 13 year old son and his best friend. Ths unit served all our needs. The sliding shoji screen provided just enough privacy between us and them... The location was awesome... For going to the beach and to ala Mona... more center. The kids had tons of independence and had the time of their life... The view was awesome... A memorable trip for us all... less

— Mom of teen boy, Stayed 07/19/2012

A very relaxing site and comfortable condo

This condo is close to everything, but also quiet with a drop-dead view of the water and sunsets.

— A FlipKey verified reviewer, Stayed 05/31/2012

Very satisfied

Our stay was very pleasant. We had a good view of the ocean and within walking distance to the beach. Having a kitchen is definitely a plus since our daughter tend to get hungry late at night. Parking is expensive! $25.00 per night at the... more hotel. less

— Stephen K, Stayed 04/15/2012

Perfect

I stayed at this condo in November and was in town for business and a medical treatment, but also wanted to have some nice time out. I got it all. The condo is very well laid out and decorated. The kitchen does not miss a... more thing and it was very easy to get groceries and take out the trash etc.I was surprised to see someone had taken care of little things which are not important but make a big difference, such as serving trays, corkscrew, plastic containers etc.The TV was very easy to use ( I am a bit technically challenged and do not like complicated remotes etc). The condo has very nice furniture, the internet worked all the time, it was quiet and of course has an awesome view. I really liked the booking process as well. Everything went without a hitch, my e mails were answered immediately and check in was non existent, just go up and open the door!I am planning a return trip for next year. less

everything we hoped it would be!

we stayed at the Ilikai in 1994 for 2 months and wanted to go back because it was a wonderful experience. The hotel is still fantastic, wonderful view of the harbor and the ocean, great sunsets from the lanai. Perfect location for condo, and a... more very quiet floor, unit is pretty sound proof, can not hear other tenants through the walls or ceiling. Supplies are plentiful in the unit, coffee filters, laundry detergent, linens, beach towels, beach chairs and a great little kitchen with whatever cooking utensils and appliances you may need. No need to bring your hairdryer, their's is just fine. Also a bill changer by front desk for washer and dryer located a few units from 1304. See the concierge early in your stay,to book activities so you will not be disappointed. Have breakfast at the Wailana coffee shop, pancakes are terrific with coconut syrup-did Ihop once and back to Wailana. Also Shorebird in the Outrigger is great for breakfast as they look right over the beach and have a great breakfast buffet, check for the coupons in "This week Oahu".This unit is best enjoyed with 1 couple, it would be quite crowded with more than 2 people. There is a sofa bed, but very close quarters concerning privacy issues if more than 2 people. On the lanai there are aluminum sliding sun shades, use them in the afternoon to shade the lanai, works great in the cooling of the lanai. The hotel bar and grill is good to. Short walk to the mall, easy walk to Waikiki hotels and shopping. Hilton Lagoon area has a great beach with a great view of Diamond Head. Find a tour to the north Shore, much to see there and check out the Byodo-in Temple, it is a scale replica of a 900 y/o temple in Japan. If snorkeling, try Ocean Joy Cruises, great catamaran and if you don't see dolphins (guaranteed) you can go for another cruise-book early in your stay, so you will have opportunity to go again,(free) sometimes the dolphins are sleeping! View Hilton fireworks on Friday evening from Ilikai courtyard. less

awesome and a memory gift of a lifetime

We recently stayed at the Ilikai Condo Unit 1304 What a great choice. The view from the Lanai was spectacular. We saw it all...surfers, joggers, boats...sunsets and the ceremonial conch blowing for the torch lighting every evening. The condo was clean and spacious and it's... more obvious that the owners take great pride in the care, decor, supplies and up-keep of their condo. The transportation available right outside was great with trolley, bus and cab service always available. The hotel was great...the pool, the store,the grill restaurant...loved this unit and will stay here again. Diamond Head background photo opportunity around the corner on the beach and home of Hawaii 5-0 opening film shot --Loved it all and was blessed to have our young adult kids come and enjoy this memory of a lifetime before going back to college and starting a new job. Thank you Kat for your assistance in lining this all up for us. Mahalo and looking forward to another stay in unit 1304 next year. less

Slam dunk deal :)

Condo # 1304 is awesome. Check in was a breeze. It was nice not worrying about "who has the condo key ". The location, value & ammentities are an a+. The owners have thought of everthing ~ We enjoyed coffee on the lanai that overlooks... more the marina & ocean. Food extras were right across the street ( ABC store & McDonald's ). Great sandwich & wrap bistro also close. It was ideal ~ thank you for making our 10th anniversary very special !! less

very relaxing and awe inspiring view!

This condo inspires a vision of Paradise..truly. We have been coming to the islands for years: this condo has it all. Peace, view, comfort, convenience to restaurants, shopping, beach, pool, excitement and quiet: all in one spot. Highly recommend, you will not be disappointed.

Nice room at a nice location

Condo 1304 was nicely furnished but lacked a small table inside for eating. The condo could use a bathroom vent and one over the stove. Room was light and airy and had a great view of the harbor. We would stay here again.

Beautiful View

The unit was absolutly wonderful. Well supplied with cooking equipment although we did not cook. But plenty of wine glasses and plates and such. The bedding was like a cloud, I usually wake up tired from an unrestfull night but not here.Bath was not cramped... more and very clean nice size shower. The bedroom divider did not make noise when closing so my wife could continue to sleep while I got up to make a cup of coffee,no sqeaky doors or drawers. Ac worked great. We will try to book here again knowing what we are getting, wish we could book two years in advance, that's our frequency.Only wish we could have checked in sooner 3:00pm seems like a loss when we could be enjoying the room should be closer to 1:00pm,:-( less

Everything we hoped it would be and more

The unit was reallywell furnished;the chairs sofa and bed very comfortable and must be quite new. As well, there were some touches such as a beautiful writing desk, and book case, which added a lovely intimate feeling with the owners. Of course the view is... more outstanding of the marina,Ala Moana Park and beach, and we enjoyed the sunsets every evening. The kitchen is equipped with a microwave/convection oven, toaster, coffee-maker and stove top, plus all the dishes, utensils, and pots you would ever need to put out a meal. The bathroom is in great shape, and we enjoyed the shower,being very spacious. The owners have not stinted on making this a very comfortable unit. We were able to keep in touch thanks to the internet service. We would definitely want to stay at 1304 again. less

Great waikiki experience

Thoroughly enjoyed our honeymoon stay at the Ilikai condo! My wife and I stayed here for 4 nights and thought it suited our needs perfectly. It had a nice condo-like feel with a good view on the 13th floor of the marina and beautiful sunsets,... more although no beach view really. It was clean and very well furnished with all the amenities we needed. The location was great for exploring Waikiki which we drove to a few times and also walked to a few times since it didn't take too long. Could walk to a good beach directly via hotel beach access, but we ended up using some of the other beaches anyway. Minor issue I had was parking which is not included, I would recommend parking at the marina which was something like $15 every 24 hrs. I would say if you want an affordable stay near the main strip of Waikiki, then I recommend this place! less
