Ilikai Marina 1894, Honolulu Oahu

"Home away from Home"

We have stayed many times in Gillian & Vlad's very hospitable apartment(s) in the Ilikai Marina, good sized apartment, very clean & comfortable, with fabulous views, & 10 minutes walking distance to A La Moana shopping center & has a kitchen that has appliances to... more make any dish you choose. I like eating out, but with Honolulu restaurant price it certainly helps with any budget. Highly recommended. Wouldn't stay anywhere else in Honolulu. less

Illikai Marina 1894

We loved our stay at Illikai Marina and hope to return. It was an ideal location for exploring the beautiful island and such an incredible view, that resting after our adventures was equally amazing! We ate breakfast and supper on the Lanai looking out at... more the ocean and that alone was worth the price! It was also very clean and had everything we needed to cook and the bed was comfortable. As above, we hope to return. Thank you, Gillian and Vlad! less

Another vacation in Paradise

We have stayed at this condo several times now and is our go to place to stay. Up close ocean view. Watched surfers, whales and even a few submarines from your high vantage point. King size bed was a plus! Looking forward to staying there... more again in the future... less

Good value, great view

This unit is a great value, considering it has a top floor view of the marina and ocean. There were a few spectacular sunsets during our week that were unimpeded for pictures. The building is old, but has been kept up nicely and this quiet... more room is no exception. Some people might be put off by the tiny balcony that barely holds the two chairs provided. The only negatives, besides that, are that the lid doesn't fit the frying pan and the guide for the shower doors needs to be removed and cleaned. I'm giving this condo a 5 star rating in spite of the minor complaints. We had to move our reservation once, due to Covid restrictions, and Gillian was most accommodating. less

Happy Traveler

As someone who was born and raised in Hawaii, returning home to see family and friends after 2 yrs of covid was important. Not wanting to stay with family and friends because of covid concerns, it was important to find a location that was suitable... more and convenient. The unit was accurately described online, but the ocean views were outstanding, far more beautiful than the photos. The unit was clean and the staff at AlohaCondos were excellent and responsive to my questions. I do plan on returning to the islands and AlohaCondos will be on the top of my list of places to stay. less

Condo 1894

Great condo. Had everything we needed. Bathroom could be cleaner; a bit dated too. Sofa bed mattress is uncomfortable; you can feel the springs. Condo manager and owners are accommodating.

Amazing Views 😎 Comfortable Stay !

This beautiful condo was such a great choice for Our staycation. Great location with restaurants & shops & the beach within walking distance. The cleanliness was consistent throughout. The kitchen is Spacious and equipped with all the amenities you need to prepare meals & enjoy... more ( which we took advantage of 😋 ). The living/dining area is open and facing the patio, which makes the scenic dining experience relaxing. The patio is small but Great for sunrise coffee or a sunset glass of wine . The bed is very comfortable with fluffy pillows . The AC works great 😊 keeping cool with no adjustments. Bathroom was Good, Nice quality towels , nice water pressure+ Temperature .The washer and dryer in the unit was not available, but there was a laundry room in the building. The extra pluses we’re 1. The communication throughout the booking 2.The convenient keyless access 3. Providing beach umbrella & chairs for us to use and enjoy. We definitely look forward to rebooking for a future stay 😎!! Thank you less

Hesitant Reviewer

The reason I’m hesitant on leaving this review is by telling the world what I think of this unit, it might just mean I may have a hard time reserving it again, due to the high demand this will create! This is the fourth unit... more on the ocean side of the building I’ve rented, and hands down, it is by far the best of the lot! It is the nicest location in the building, as easily seen from the surf in front. The bed was extremely comfortable, and all the furniture is very nice, upscale Hawaiian style. Well equipped and everything is functional and clean! So if you don’t rent this unit, do not worry, because it means I have more chances of renting it again for myself!

Absolutely Perfect Stay

We completely loved our recent stay at the Ilikai Marina. From the start with the simple code for the door, no keys to deal with! I can't describe how great the view is, I could sit there and watch the surfers, and sailors, and barges,... more and kayaks, and canoes all day. The condo has everything you'd need and it's super close to a perfect little store down on the corner that has plenty of things to make simple meals. The top floor is actually super quiet. With the lanai door closed, the entire city was shut out and we felt comfy and safe! The contact Ryan was great and easy to get hold of. Bed is comfy, sheets are great and the place was super clean. The A/C works so well we actually had to turn it up, we got a little chilly :) Thanks to owners Gillian and Vlad for such an amazing stay, we will return again! J less

Top floor condo with View!

The condo was a nice change from the resort hotels on Waikiki Beach. We were not on a resort holiday so both the location and amenities were perfect for our needs. The unit is on the top floor at the end of a hall with... more a beautiful view. Parking was easy and getting in and out of Honolulu from this location was also simple. It is well maintained and met our expectations. less

Best of my stays in Hawaii

Best Condo I have stayed in and would diffidently want the same one again at the same location. Thanks

Excellent apartment

Everything about the apartment is excellent and cannot be beaten.Fully equipped for self catering with beach chairs etc available. Would recommend to anyone.

— Alan, Stayed 06/08/2019

Waikiki in February

Generally a nice, well located condo. The kitchen pots, pans, dinnerware, wine glasses, etc all seemed on the cheap and dated side. There isn’t a good spot for the trash can except in the middle of the kitchen floor. The deck, unfortunately, isn’t useable by... more two persons. Otherwise it was comfortable and convenient for our week. less

— Stephen, Stayed 02/26/2019

Great Location

This condo is very well apppointed and in a great location. Stunning sunset views. One block to the beach. Wheelchair accessible. Just wish we had more time to spend there.

— Kelly, Stayed 01/17/2019

Well Worth It!

We stayed at 1894, Ilikai Marina for just under a full week. The place was VERY clean and modern. Completely comfortable in every respect. My wife and I slept in the King Bed, and that separate bedroom has an awesome view out over the marina,... more to the ocean. Our teen daughter slept on the pull out sleeper sofa, and she was quite comfy as well. The place is really quite spacious as far as condos go, and the kitchen lacked for nothing in my view. The nearby grocery stores made it easy to eat on a budget, rather than having to eat out every day. The balcony is extremely tight, but still, can squeeze two chairs on it, and the view is priceless. 180 degree panoramic view of the ocean, and nearby high rises, particularly gorgeous at night! This unit is located at the very top floor (18th) and on a corner, so any possible neighbor unit noises are reduced by 50% (no one above, or to one side). The TV remotes are a little tricky to figure out, but both TV's in bedroom and main room work great. The A/C works fine, but frankly, just open the door to the balcony and the weather is perfect 24/7. We would absolutely go back there at the next trip to HNL. The price was very fair, and the owners are super responsive and accommodating! less

wonderful marina view

I make it a rule to stay at likai Marina Cond in Oahu, because the life amenity is well equipted and is satisfactory . The scenery of yacht harbour and beautiful sunset from the room is so splendid and everybody would be satisfied with those.... more Wifi system is complete.The location is so convinient for marine activities and famous shopping centers. less

Wonderful stay at the Ilikai Marina condo 1894

It was our 3rd stay at the Ilikai Marina on different floors. On the 18th floor it was much quieter than what we had experienced before. We love the view, and easy short walk to Ala Moana shopping centre. We hope next year we can... more come back and stay again in your lovely condo. Thankyou for sharing it with us. less

— David, Stayed 10/30/2018

Best ocean view in a nice condo

We enjoyed our 1 week stay at this lovely condo. The 180 degree view is spectacular! We can see all ocean activities right in front and even a full rainbow! Being in the quiet corner of the builing and on highest floor, the condo was... more very quiet. The condo is well decorated, very neat and clean throughout as in pictures! Kitchen is equipped with essentials. The bed is comfortable! Aloha Condo management is prompt in responses to any questions and notifications where needed. We'll stay here again. I do hope management would cover parking fee or at least cover a portion of parking fee in the future for 1 week or longer stay. less

CONDO 1894

The condo was just like coming home, very clean and comfortable. We loved the location with the beautiful sunsets every evening. There is a ABC Store close-by for any supplies you may need. Very thoughtful addition of chairs and boogie boards in the cupboard, also... more towels for the beach. Will definitely stay again. less

— LUDMILA, Stayed 09/02/2018

Wonderful Place to Stay!

Overall, I would have to say that this condo is a fantastic place to stay for anyone vacationing in Honolulu! The unit stayed nice and cool, the view was amazing, and the location made it super easy to walk to multiple eating/shopping establishments! We only... more ran into a couple of hiccups on our 10 night stay. First, we were not allowed to use the washer/dryer in the unit, which was the primary reason for choosing it. At the time of booking, there was nothing stating the use restrictions. Second, the plumbing in the building had to be shut off on the day before departing due to scheduled maintenance. Totally not the fault of the unit owner....just an inconvenience since we needed to do a lot of laundry and packing (a LOT of packing) that day. Also, trying to fight for the washer/dryers on the 8th floor was a challenge during this trip (busy busy). FYI, make sure to bring a lot of quarters for the machines!! There are NO change machines in the building! Despite these minor issues, we absolutely loved the condo! It was clean, bug-free, and super quiet. A huge thank you to Gillian and Vlad!! less

— Nikki, Stayed 07/06/2018

Very Impressed

We stayed in this Condo for ten days in February 2018. It was great, very comfortable and clean, The view was five star, so much going on in the water out the front of the room it was very entertaining and we could see the... more fireworks on Friday night perfectly. All the modern facilities were in great order, the main bed was very comfortable, (new?) as was the futon after adding a quilt top to the top of the mattress. It was very quiet at night as it is the last room at the end of the floor, Staff were lovely, especially Steven in the office at ground floor. We had no trouble with any appliances. We can recommend this Condo. less

Like Home! Fully Equiped! Best condo in Waikiki!

My daughter and I rented from Vlad and Gillian 2 years in the row! Amazing hosts, very friendly, respond quickly to emails and their condos have everything you need! We traveled to Waikiki many times, but these condos outdo them all in Waikiki! View from... more condo is so BEAUTIFUL! We enjoyed looking at the boat harbor, ocean and the beach, you will see many sail boats. On Fridays we watched Fireworks from the balcony. Location is GREAT! Condo is located in the quiet, safe and clean part of Waikiki, right next to Hilton Village Hotels. There are many shops, restaurants, cafes, live music, and scenic spots. You can take a 9 minute ride on the bus to downtown of Waikiki or go for a nice 15 minute walk thru DeRussy Park. Condo is FULLY EQUIPED and RENOVATED! It’s clean, fully renovated, furniture is new and bed is big and comfortable! Bathroom is also new. Hosts provide everything... Kitchen supplies: pots, pans, coffee maker, toaster, microwave, rice cooker, and much more…. everything is new and working! They provided beach chairs, umbrella (you will need it) as well as shopping cart on wheels so you can shop for food at nearby ABC Store. Condo is very nice looking on the inside! We recommend this condo to all of our friends. We could not express how happy we are with this condo and are planning to come back here again many times! less

Excellent accommodation

Have recently spent several weeks in the condo. We were mostly self catering and found that all the necessary cooking utensils were in the accommodation with a recently modernised kitchen area. In addition beach equipment and towels etc. were provided. Altogether an excellent apartment with... more fabulous sea views and sunsets. Not forgetting the grandstand view of the fireworks. Thoroughly recommended. less

— Alan, Stayed 03/02/2018

Amazing stay, amazing condo

What a great condo! We were only there a couple days but wow. Condo had everything we needed, from beach towels to cooking utensils. I went to bed early (tired from all day at the zoo :) ) but the sliding door on the bedroom... more meant that my daughter could finish watching her movie without bugging me. Room stayed cool the whole time even though it was cooking outside. Amazing sunsets over the marina each night and you can see the incredible (free) fireworks display from the lanai (balcony). Room was super clean and bed was comfy. We didn't rent a car but the resort does have a nice parking garage with an attendant if you do. Overall great stay and thanks to owner Gillian for everything! -AA p.s. This is a small thing, but the bathroom has two entrances, so you can use it from the living-room without bothering whoever is in the bedroom :) less
