This condo is a wonderful place to stay. It's a corner unit with incredible ocean views from Kaiser Lagoon, across the marina, and all the way down to Ewa Beach. Friday night we opened the plantation shutters and were treated to front row seats for the fireworks.
The interior is super clean and nicely furnished with tasteful tropical decor. The king size bed was really comfortable and offered little motivation for rolling out in the morning. The full kitchen was well equipped, giving us the flexibilty to enjoy several meals (especially breakfasts) with out having to go out.
The laundry room made it easy to do all of our wash at one time, making more time available for enjoying the beach.
Parking was very convienient and close to the elevators.
If your starting to get the impression we liked this place, you're right.
Lastly, our host Kama was just terrific to deal with. We travel to Hawaii once or twice a year but this was the first time we rented a condo instead of staying in a hotel. Kama spoiled us so bad, we never want to stay in a hotel again. Everything was as advertised and better. To top it all off, our cleaning deposit was returned promptly. Mahalo Kama for a great stay. We look forward to returning again soon.

We stayed for about 8 days and everything was perfect, except for the waves! Well actually the first three days were great but then it became flat. The condo is excellent, perfectly located for any surfer coming to town to surf Bowls, (just walk across the parking lot and Bowls is right there) and for those who want to just cruise (or shop) Waiks, Kalakaua Ave. is just a short skip down the street. I highly recommend Kama and Steffie's place at the Ilikai Marina. They are great people and went out of there way for us, literally! Thanks again Kama and hope to stay next time.

My husband had to come to Ohau for work so my son and I tagged along. I found this wonderful condo at the beginning of Waikiki. It felt like home there. Great views, convenient, and a quiet building. The hosts were kind and easy to work with. Loved our stay and should we return, we will look this home up again.

We just returned from a week in Oahu and we had a great time staying in this condo. The view was fantastic as the others have said and we saw rainbows almost everyday from the huge windows. The furnishings were very nice, the king bed was great and even the pull-out sofa was very comfortable. Central AC worked very well and was quiet-it was nice coming back into a cool apartment. Location was very convenient and parking was a breeze with very large spaces (our car rental somehow got upgraded to an Escalade and we really needed large spaces to park!). We walked over to the Hilton Hawaiian Village Friday night to watch the fireworks since we also wanted to catch a bit of the free Polynesian show beforehand, our girls really enjoyed that.
As others have recommended, we tried the Wailana Coffee House across from Hilton for breakfast and the food was very good, and prices outstanding, and service very friendly. Our server's name was Noni and she was just really sweet. We also drove to the Makai Market food court at the Ala Moana a few times to eat (my wife is 7 months pregnant so it was easier to drive and park there). The Curry House CoCo Ichibanya is very tasty and also we liked the Korean placed called Yummy! Also if you like mochi, there is a place there that had really good mochi.
Most of all, the owner was wonderful to work with and extremely accommodating with all our questions and special requests. Our flights were such that we arrived late in the evening and our departure was also late in the evening, and the owner allowed us to check-out very late. He also had a small but nice collection of Hawaiian CD music that we listen to all the time. We loved IZ (Israel Kamakawiwo'ole) and the Ka'au Crater Boys. One day when driving back from Dole Pineapple Plantation, IZ's version of Over the Rainbow came on the radio just as this huge rainbow appeared - it was one of those "wow" moments. We would definitely recommend this condo to anyone looking for a place to stay in Oahu.

We enjoyed staying here very much. There are excellent views of the surf, sunsets, and harbor. The place is beautifully furnished and is very clean. The kitchen was well equipped. Perfect for cooking our meals. The owners are very helpful and friendly. Thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful condo. We hope to return very soon.

| We rented this condo for our grandparents for 3 nights and it was wonderful. Being a corner unit, all the windows made it so light, and the furnishings are very nice ~ the sleeper sofa was even comfortable (very rare!) The best aspects are the views of the marina and sunsets which make you never want to leave, but if you do venture out, the mall, park, and restaurants are all an easy walk. Will definetely return, mahalo! |

We stayed here July 2006 for 8 nights and had a wonderful time. The accomodations were comfortable for a family of four and the location was great. It was a pleasure doing business with the owners. We would definitely consider renting this unit on our next visit.

| I spent a week there last March and it is a great condo at a very reasonable price. The owners couldn't have been nicer. I will definitely stay there again. |

This was a beautiful place to stay. The condo was beautifully decorated and was complete with everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. From the condo we could easily walk to the mall, park, beach, and restaurants. Everyone knew where the Ilikai was located so arranging tour or taxi pick-ups was a breeze. The views from the room were breath-taking. We sat on the lanai and had a perfect view of the Friday night fireworks display and the ocean. We purchased groceries at the convenience store which is within a block of the building and were able to save a lot of money by eating some of our meals in the condo. The kitchen was complete with everything we needed. All our calls and emails were responded to immediately by the owners who were very nice and helpful.
We suggest eating at the “Casual Coffee Shop and Lounge” located one block up on the left corner of Ala Mona. The service and food were fantastic and very, very reasonably priced. We could walk from the condo to the bus and shuttle stop in less than three minutes so getting around in Waikiki was no problem once we learned the bus numbers and routes. We will definitely be staying at the Ilikai Marina when we return and would recommend it to anyone planning on staying at Waikkiki. |

Guest Comment Entered By Homeowner:
We love this condo - the view of the ocean and the harbor is wonderful. Every morning we spent a good amount of time just enjoying the view from the balcony before we headed out for more fun. The kitchen is really well equipped and the place feels very spacious and comfortable. There were only two of us, but the place can easily fit in two more people nicely. Parking is easy too - never a problem. The owners are very efficient and hospitable - all the transactions went smoothly. We are very happy about finding such a jewel - we definitely would like to come back next time we're visting Oahu. Thanks for sharing your beautiful place with us!
Mahalo,
