  We stayed in unit 730 mid-October - mid-November 2022. The condo is nice and was clean. The fireworks are back, so the view of that is spectacular from the lanai as is the daytime view. The lanai is a decent size. The unit has all the needed dishes and cooking utensils, the dish washer was also a nice feature. The only drawback for us is the Ilikai does not have BBQ's but the pool area and the rest of the hotel in general is great! Dealing with Mariko at Aska is also a pleasure.

• This condo is a GEM!

  THIS is how you do Hawaii as a family! Since I used to live close to this area of Honolulu, I had an insider perspective that the Ilikai was the place to stay to have access to the best of everything, while staying within budget. This condo definitely exceeded our expectations! We had a fabulous stay in the Ilikai Apartment #730 for 8 days! I'll name a few of my favorites about this place, but there really are too many to name. The balcony view is spectacular. Coffee in the mornings, sunsets in the evenings, cocktails and meals while enjoying the beautiful ocean view. Fireworks every friday can be seen from the balcony. The location is perfect. Walking distance to all the happenings of Waikiki, Ala Moana beach and Ala Moana Mall. Skip renting a car and paying for parking because Uber is so easy from here. Laundry is on the same floor. Super cute Ice cream shop and a mini-mart/gift shop in the lobby. Cinnamon's restaurant in the lobby. BEAUTIFUL outdoor lobby to gather in. Just steps away from a super chill lagoon that has water biking, stand up paddle boarding, snorkeling, shrimp truck/shave ice and picnic areas. TWO beautiful pools on site that are perfect for kids or for lounging that were surprisingly NOT crowded! We found the King size bed to be super comfortable. The fold out sofa mattress was of great quality. Plenty of bedding/towels. Fully stocked kitchen for all cooking needs. Welcome kit of paper towels, toilet paper, dish soap, bathroom soap, sponge and trash bags was very much appreciated. Very easy to schedule grocery delivery to the Ilikai. Plenty of space for our family of 4! And lastly, you cannot beat the price! I will be recommending this condo to all of my friends!

  The people at the realty company that manages this condo were absolutely the best to deal with. They responded quickly and were so helpful. The condo was very clean and well stocked. Bed was king size and comfortable.
  My only small issue was that there were no hooks in the bathroom to hang robes etc. The bathroom also needed a paint job.

• Good location!

  I'm glad that we rented this studio! Everything was like it's pictured! Great view from the balcony. One Saturday night there was even fireworks! There was not enough towels for 2 of us, so we had to wash them, and beach towels, because they didn't dry by them selfs. And one day I noticed that AC stopped working, we tried to turn it on, the outlet lost power, good thing there was extention cord, that we were able to turn on AC id different outlet on the another side of the bed! I emailed you guys about this issue, and nobody emailed me back. We didn't mind to take out garbage every day. We sure glad that we had full size refrigerator and freezer and microwave! Pillows were not comfortable, but bed was big and nice, king size! We walked to Ala Moana Beach and Magic Beach for better Beach and awesome sunsets!Easy walking distance to the Mall, we really enjoyed eating at Olive Garden (in the mall)

  I was sold on this unit based on the title and pictures (FIREWORKS VIEW FROM LANAI). This was complete FALSE advertisement and I feel like I paid aa premium for this room based on the title. We were there for 12 day and 2 Fridays and there were ZERO fireworks. Also, I feel like the unit owner did not provide much with respects to SOAP, TOILET PAPER, PAPER TOWELS and the basic essentials that have always been supplied at previous AB&B rentals. The unit was in good condition and the general experience was positive. I just wish the UNIT OWNER would have disclosed or did not advertise falsely about the FIREWORKS as I probably would have gone with a less expensive unit had I known that there was not going to be included in our visit. I did enjoy the Ilikai property and the building was surprisingly nice based on its outer appearance of being older. I just hope that people read this review so you are not as disappointed as we were as this was our first vacation in over two years and we were really looking forward to the FIREWORKS which is 100% the reason we went with this unit. I am guessing I could have saved $50 per night with a mountain view room.
  
  Future renters: If the price is right for you then you will enjoy the unit. Just note there are NO FIREWORKS!!! It will sleep 4 (beds not very comfortable). One KING old mattress and 1 pull out couch with super thin mattress.
  
  Bathroom and kitchen are average.
  
  To be honest I would stay there again if the price was a little better as the management company was very kind and the Lanai is large and the size is right for my family.
  
  ***ALSO, WE HAD CONSTRUCTION DISRUPTION WHICH WAS NOT DISCLOSED AND HAD OUR WATER TURNED OFF IN THE UNIT WHICH YOU CAN IMAGINE IN HAWAII CAN BE ROUGH WITH NO WATER (CANT GO TO THE BATHROOM OR SHOWER OR USR THE KITCHEN OR WAS YOUR HAND ETC...***
  
  ***THERE WAS SOME TYPE OF VENT IN THE SHOWER THAT APPEARED TO HAVE A LOT OF BLACK MOLD***
  
  ***JUST CHANG

• Decent place to stay!

  We picked this place specifically because of how close it is from the beach and lagoon for our toddler and senior mom. We were also expecting fireworks but due to covid the fireworks has been suspended for more than a year now and should be taken out of the title or noted on the listing. The two pools were a great option. The ice cream shop downstairs was great. Cinnamons Restaurant was ok and can be a bit pricey. I like that our room is close enough to the elevators and the laundry room but not close enough to be loud. They even had a salsa band playing one Sunday which got a lot of people dancing.
  
  The Ilikai is an older building but this specific unit has been remodeled. Lots of dishes, utensils and pots and pans for use. They provided a small bottle of hand/dish soap and a couple of paper goods for our 12 night stay (we needed to buy more). The toilet with bidet was great and good shower pressure. They only have valet parking for $28/night which we used for a couple nights then we were able to find parking by the marina with some patience. Being on the 7th floor can sometimes be annoying when using the elevators because it can be full of people already going down. We’ve used the bathers elevator sometimes and the stairs was a good option if you’re up for it.
  
  We drove around a lot with our rental and would likely stay somewhere else than Waikiki next but this is a decent place to stay close to the beach, Ala Moana mall and it’s not in the middle of downtown Waikiki.

• Pretty good.

  It was a clean unit. However it was in need of some small touches for instance the mattress probably needs to be replaced it was very hard to sleep on. The lamp on the right hand side I guess had broken and been put up in the closet which for me was a bit of a problem as I am a reader and like to read at night. That was a small thing that could’ve been replaced. The bathroom wall was in desperate need of some touch up paint above the toilet although the toilet was very nice indeed having the heated seat and the bidet. Also would have been nice to have had a small starter kit of shampoo, Conditioner and a little bar of hand soap like the Ilikai units we have previously been in as people check in late. And no corkscrew! We had to purchase one.
  We had a lovely stay overall. Thank you.

  This updated condo had an excellent location in the Ilikai near the ocean, beach, shopping and restaurant. No need for a car you could walk to everything. The condo was recently updated and nicely decorated with many welcoming touches. Easy check in and check out.

  Cute, cozy and clean! Great view of pools, lagoon and ocean. Convenient on-site market and concierge. Good communication with management company. Don’t pay for pricey hotels when you can get more space for half the cost at this condo!
