  We stubbled on to this posting after missing out on a few other finds. What a gift we received. The condo is updated with a beautiful kitchen, huge shower and the condo was large enough for the three of us. The view is amazing as there is nothing between you and sunset, which is amazing. The location is perfect as we were just a short walk to Duke's Lagoon and the ocean front beach which is a must see. Ala Moana shopping mall is about a 10 minute walk for those interested. If you plan to stay in town there is no need for a car rental. We did do a 1 day rental across the street and hit the North Shore Sunday afternoon. The bus stop is right on the corner to take you almost anywhere. Debbie was easy to work with and all of the communication was seamless. The security deposit was refunded right away. If given the opportunity to bounce back we will stay there again.

  Unit very well done and the owners thought of everything. By the time we left I decided to try and find something they forgot. NOT! Well situated with great harbor, marina and panoramic views. Close to all foods & food establishments from pricey to frugal. It doesn't hurt that there are four in the same building complex, from the Pub to 3 very nice chain restaurants! If you need a car there are a couple car rental places across the street on Ala Moana for that one or two day drive to explore the island. Kids or some disabilities could work but ck with owners on your needs. Yes, we would stay again if we have the chance! Mahalo Debbie & Dennis

  This was the first time we have ever rented a condo so were a little nervous about if what we saw in the pictures would really be what we got- especially paying up front, sight unseen. But we were delighted when we opened the odor to this condo! Beautiful granite countertops, a full kitchen with stainless steel appliances, all the kitchen gadgets, a spacious shower- everything was wonderful. Close to our conference sites at the Hawiian Village and The Confernce Center. No need to rent a car with so much so close and the bus running everywhere (even all the way to the north shore). The view is wonderful! Fireworks on Friday nights at the lagoon can be seen from the lanai. No buildings blocking your view of the ocean. We watched the submarines being towed out to the Hilton every morning. What fun! Would definitely stay here again! Thank you Debbie and Dennis!

  This condo is perfectly located near the Ala Moana shops and downtown Waikiki. From the lanai, it offers a fantastic view of the yacht harbor, ocean and the lagoon in front of the Hilton...(perfect for viewing the firework display on Friday night). The condo was super clean, comfortable and is very well equipped. This was our second stay here and won't be our last. Mahalo Debbie and Dennis...and Aloha!

  This condo has everything it advertised and more. What a delight to look out the window on the boats in the harbor and the Pacific Ocean. I am sitting on the lanai as we speak writing this review. We hate to leave. This is a great part of Waikiki. A sort walk from down town, next door to the Modern, Hawaiian Prince and Hilton Hawaiian Village 2 doors away. A great little Harbor Pub is on the first floor and is a hidden gem for breakfast and light fare for lunch and dinner. A real local flavor here. The condo lacks for nothing. It is beautiful and decoarrated as a luxurious high end property, perfect for a romatic getaway for 2. Syndie, the property manager is excellent. She contacted us to greet us on the day of arrival. She was also prompt in returning my call with a question I had at the start of our stay. Making the reservations with Debbie, the owner was easy. She was prompt and efficient in getting back to us via email and answered all of our questions fully. We ate out all of the time but if you wanted to cook, everything a cook would want is here. The owners have spared no expense. The whole place is beautifully appointed and perfectly clean. The windows are so clean, my husband stated more than once that he thought the sliding doors and windows were open at times when they were not. If you stay here with a car, there is ample parking. Make sure you park at the Illikai Marina not the main Illikai Hotel/Condo. This building is separted from the main Illika by the Modern and the parking is non valet here and a little less expensive. Mahalo to our hosts and Syndie for taking great care of us. We dream of coming back!!!

  My husband and I could not have been happier with our stay at the Ilikai Marina. It was as beautiful as the pictures and spotless when we arrived. The decor is tasteful and the view from the balcony is unforgettable. The sunsets were magical! There is nothing that has not been thought of to make your holiday comfortable and memorable. The bathroom was luxurious and the kitchen was well planned with all the gadgets & appliances we have at home. We were happy with the location and used the restaurants downstairs. I highly recommend this unit if you are looking for a perfect stay in Waikiki.

  Description does not do it justice, It's better in person ! The condo was spotless. Debbie went way beyond in answering questions. Highly recommended. Ala Mona shopping mall was walking distance, as well as " Duke's Lagoon " , and Waikiki Beach. Parking was very convenient as you can park on the condo level and not have to use the elevator. The condo was fully supplied, beach towels, air mattress, etc. Debbie even surprised us with an anniversary gift. This is the place you want to be in Waikiki.

  Thank you for letting us stay in your awesome condo. We had such a great time. I loved the décor and style – your decorator did a fabulous job and everything was exactly as shown on the website. We will definitely stay again. I loved the shutters that closed off the bedroom from the living room. My husband stays up later that I do most nights so I could go to bed and close the shutters and he could stay up and watch TV. I also liked that fact that your condo has 2 TV’s. What a bonus! It was great to watch TV in bed. Your kitchen was the best ever! The 2 dishwashers were great and there was everything a person could need and more….Truly a gourmet kitchen. The lighting was also awesome. Talk about setting a mood! We thoroughly enjoyed the fireworks! Spectacular! A lot of oohing and ahhhing going on! I love shopping so being that close to the Ala Moana shopping center was very handy ( a bit dangerous!). We also liked the Ala Moana Beach Park for swimming and sun tanning. Not as many people on it as Waikiki Beach. Thanks again and we will be sure to refer your condo to anyone we know that will be going to Honolulu. Maholo!

  What a wonderful way to start a holiday. An ultra luxurious condo! This is the type of place where people go to on holiday, and marvel the whole time. Located a few minutes adjacent to the Waikiki beach and the main street, the location is perfect, with being so close to every other Waikiki resorts, hotels and restaurants. It is about 25 minutes from the airport and it was love at first sight. The designer of this condo knew how to take advantage of the view and how to utilize the best floor plan. The condo feels airy and has a pretty large kitchen area for the size of the condo...but it is done is such a way that you never felt cramp in it. The kitchen area is simply wonderful, with so many gadgets that I now want my own kitchen to be built like that. There are 2 sinks, 2 small dishwasher (so you never run out of plates because you're waiting for a full load), a small wine cellar and even a safety deposit box. There is a large counter top with elevated bar top and stools, so plenty of spaces to sit and eat, and with wall-to-wall mirrors on the main wall, it provides a lot of natural lights and create an airy space feeling.There is also free wifi that provides very good connection. The only ''minus'' I would give, is that there is no phone. Coming from Canada, we simply could not use a cell phone due to exorbitant roaming charge. So, we were stuck with no phone for the week, which made us realized that we do need a phone, even if just to call the golf course or restaurant for reservation. The TV is out of this world and is exactly what I have been wanting for years. At the push of a button, it comes out of the built-in-cabinet. Very sci-fi...and excellent design plan. So, when the TV is ''under'' you see nothing but the wonderful condo. There is a partition between the living room and master bedroom that closes completely, allowing me to sleep in later while my hubby was up and having breakfast. There are a lot of drawers and closet space and the bathroom is a designer dream. Two sinks and a walk-in shower, with small bench, that could easily fit 6 people, with an overhead ''raining'' shower. We had extra towels, extra pillow and blanket available for use. The toilet is in a separate closet area, which provide that much needed privacy that most people want from a bathroom. The condo is located on the 7th floor and we never heard noise from adjacent condo. It is a very safe area and Debbie was a pleasure to deal with the whole time.I highly recommend.

  We don't know how to begin to thank you, Debbie and Dennis, for 1st answering the telephone at 6:47 am on the morning of November 9, 2010. You both showed nothing but amiability the moment you picked up the telephone. Your humanitarian spirits will not go unrecognized. We had no clue we were about to be blessed with such lovely and tranquil accommodations. The view and locations is awesome. You truly know the meaning of home away from home. We are looking forward to visiting Hawaii more often and always staying at what we consider now our home aways from home. Thank you both so much for this has truly been a dream getaway experience, thanks for helping making it possible. 2 words to describe the owners, the condo unit, and our experience, "Simply Wonderful".

  My husband stayed here for just over a week and it was perfect for our needs. The kitchen had everything we could need. The view was spectacular at sunset and every once in a while a full rainbow in the harbor. This is a great location on the edge of all the hotels. Easy walking distance to just about everything in Waikiki. I would definitely consider renting this place again if we go back to Waikiki.

  Our stay here was great! Very nice, clean and comfortable. Loved the big shower and updated features this condo has. It was very nice to come back to such a nice condo after a long day of walking and sight seeing. Would stay here again, had a very good time!
