Honolulu Hawaii Waikiki Beach Condo

We are a family of 6 (2 adults, 4 kids aged 14, 12, 11 & 8). This condo was perfect for our needs. Walking distance to the beach, Hawaiian Hilton lagoon, Ala Moana shopping centre, 10 min walk to the heart of Waikiki. The perfect place to relax, nearby restaurants & pubs & you can even sit in the balcony & watch the Hawaiian Hilton infamous luau! And did I mention the Friday night fireworks. A perfect holiday in paradise. Thanks Ramona!

The occasion was my parent's 50th Wedding anniversary - in their words 'Best Vacation we have ever had'. In great part because of the condo and Ramona.

Ramona made a great experience exceptional by paying attention to detail and taking care of all of the little things. The literature that was provided electronically prior to the trip and the information in the condo was extremely helpful - along with her texted tips. She was very responsive.

The condo is exactly as shown in the pictures, a perfect home away from home.

The location is exceptional as all of the tours and public transportation picks you up right out front. Having said that, we walked almost everywhere. There are exceptional restaurants nearby Goofy's Café and the Coffee House, The mall is a short walk away. We surfed, paddle boarded and hung out on the beach 3-4 days. Enjoyed the fireworks. Best restaurant was Allan Wong's - Duke's and House Without a Key. Lappert's Ice Cream is a 5 minute walk and is exceptional.

We toured the island a couple of days - Dole Plantation, North Shore and Polynesian Cultural center. We hiked Diamond Head, Manoa Falls and Lighthouse. Went to Pearl Harbor and the Chief's Luau all very accessible from where we stayed.

We had an amazing time, Ramona was great, very helpful and gave us great tips, the condo lobby was the perfect place to view the outstanding 4th of July fireworks. They say its location location location and this is true, the Ilikai is that location, the view from the condo was beautiful. The view of the Hilton`s show stage from the balcony was an added plus. When booking tours the Ilikai is great because we found we were one of the first hotels to get picked up so we could have our choice of seating and one of the first to get dropped off. In addition to fun in the sun and the aloha spirit I also had the best massage in the spa downstairs. Ala Moana Mall and beach park are an easy short walk. This was the first time I`ve rented a condo and Ramona made it an easy process, thank you for everything, Aloha, can`t wait to return

We have just arrived back from our 12 day stay at Ramona's Condo. Prior to our arrival Ramona provided us with all the info we needed to prepare for our holiday and she was very quick to respond to our emails. Very well located and everything at your doorstep, it was the perfect place to stay for our family with teenage children. Everyone could come and go as they pleased and with such a central location, access to shops, surf and restaurants we were all kept quite happy.

Although the unit was simply decorated, it had great amenities including excellent WiFi and TV, well stocked kitchen and bathrooms. The condo was also well stocked with beach equipment and toys, but they were a little old and could be updated, but never the less still worked and save us money from having to hire this equipment on the beach.

Apart from a plumbing issue in the ensuite (Ramona responded rather quickly to help us sort this) our stay was very relaxing and we enjoyed watching the luau on the roof of the hilton from our balcony as well as the fireworks (friday night). As a surfer my husband took great pleasure in checking the surf every morning - this was an absolute bonus for us!

We will definitely stay again as it very much felt like our home away from home. Thanks Ramona!

We have just returned from a two week holiday at Ramona's condo. The apartment is in a great location and very accessible to all transport. All the tours we booked picked us up out the front and The Bus and Waikiki Trolley stops are only a few metres away. It is a short walk to the beach or Hilton Lagoon and a casual 10 minute stroll to Ala Moana Shopping Centre. The unit itself is a bit dated (mainly kitchen and bathrooms) but it was tidy, clean and the beds / furniture were comfortable and to be honest how much time do you spend inside. We found all the staff working within the Ilikai very pleasant and helpful. Ramona was very professional, sent a lot of information regarding the unit and answered emails promptly. If I had to be picky it would be to suggest putting a Washer/Dryer in the unit. There are only 2 Washer/Dryers for the whole floor and at $5.00 a load to wash and dry it can be a bit expensive (especially when you have 2 teenage girls). Thanks again Ramona
