Modern Ilikai 16th floor Harbor Studio - Surfing, Sunset & & Yacht Views!

Basic room with dated feel awesome ocean view and deck. Great location. Negatives. BLACK MOLD ATOP FRIDGE BY MICROWAVE. WOKE UP AT 7am by loud protestors on property.

The view is amazing! The property is very clean. I'd love to stay again.

Loved the location, the room was perfect for the two of us, bed was really comfortable. I didn’t like the stove every time I would get into the cupboard I’d turn on the burner but other than that I loved my stay.😉

we would definitely stay here again!

The room was great but i didn't have wi-fi and i couldn't get the tv to work. I had to use the hotspot on my phone

The view and ease of getting to the apartment was fantastic. We were walking distance from most things which we loved. If there was a comforter or duvet on the bed, basic kitchen essentials (salt, pepper, etc) for the kitchen and beach towels it would make this a 5/5. Overall we really enjoyed our stay.

The host was incredibly kind and responsive, and we truly appreciated how helpful they were throughout our stay. The view was absolutely beautiful and definitely one of the highlights for us.That said, there were a few areas of the room that could use some attention. Upon arrival, we noticed some hair on the floors and countertops, and the top sheet on the bed had a stain. There was also only a flat sheet on the mattress rather than a fitted sheet, which made it a bit uncomfortable at night since it would shift and bunch up.The couch and pull-out bed were a little different from what we expected based on the listing. It worked fine for the two of us, but it may be challenging for a third guest, as the couch felt somewhat unstable and you could feel the support bars when sitting on it.Additionally, the kitchen trash can was quite small, more like a bathroom-sized bin, which made it slightly inconvenient during our stay.Overall, we appreciated the hospitality and especially loved the view. With a few small improvements, this could be an even better experience for future guests.

Easy check in, great view and location, kitchen is well stocked, host is very responsive

Beautiful view, easy check in and out, nice location to beach and town.

Location was amazing. Deck and railing were very dirtyDeck only had one chair that was semi comfortable. Hammock is useless get rid of it. Only had one beach chair Couch was very uncomfortable The listing showed pics of gym which I as misleading as we didn’t get access to it.

Power was out the first night and when it did come on the shower was backed up and flooded with black water. Had a Plummer come by while we were in the room in the evening to fix it. He worked for 2 hours pounding away in and out and making noise and couldn’t fix it. After 2 days of no showers they decided to move us to another one of their apartments. When they did move us there was pounding on the floor above us. So much for a relaxing stress free vacation in Hawaii. Very disappointing!

The sunset view was great. A lot of noise from the harbor (one boat specifically) and someone was smoking on the balcony of a nearby unit so it was a little stinky at times. The closest beach was very rocky not exactly related to our stay but something we noticed. Bring your own beach towels and look into beach chair rentals because this unit only has one and the carry straps are damaged. We didn’t have any intention of cooking for ourselves but this unit also had a limited variety of cooking utensils. The ac unit is dated and extremely loud, we would leave it one when we weren’t in the room and that seemed to work good enough for us. Overall, it functioned just fine as a place to sleep. We don’t typically visit Honolulu but if we do again we will likely look for somewhere more central on Waikiki beach.

The view was amazing! Place was cute. Had to email property manager because they didnt send chwck in information. Ac wasnt turned on prior to our check in and it is in direct sun. The shower was dirty and there were 2 bikinis on the deck. Also after 2 showers the shower was clogged, ended up showering in ankle deep water. Definitely need some upgrades but still enjoyed the location.

First, I love the Ilikai Hotel - it has great amenities. Great location. This time I appreciated being higher up, on the 16th floor with a terrific view of the Ala Moana marina, the ocean, and hotel grounds below. There was a minor glitch checking in - the instructions for unlocking the door on the keypad were not entirely correct, but I called Hawaii Lei Realty and someone came to fix the situation.Overall, I enjoyed staying in the unit. One thing that would have been helpful is instructions on how to use the two TV remotes. I'm not tech savvy but I managed to figure it out - for the future: hit the power on the Spectrum remote, then hit the on-off button on the Spectrum unit, wait for it to display 2d, then back to the time, then turn on the power on the TV remote. I don't know how I figured this out but I did!

Great experience….would book again….

Rating Details: The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were very please with the suite. I was pleasantly surprised with the size and comfort. Also great location on Waikiki. We would surely stay there again.

We didnt spend much time at the vrbo as we were off adventuring. The location was wonderful. The bed was comfy, but the couch definitely could use an upgrade. Anytime we did want to stop and sit while we figured out plans, we only ever sat on the bed because the couch was so uncomfortable.

Great location and easy parking by the marina.

Easy to access and enter/leave.Bed is definitely sagging, but not uncomfortable.

Quant with a good view

We enjoyed our stay. The view from the Ilakai is our favorite!

Loved the room! Tv was a challenge to use.

My husband and I stayed for our honeymoon. Beautiful view. Clean room. Walking distance to many restaurants and shopping. Looking forward to visiting again.

The view was excellent, as was the location. There were some beach things left from previous guests which was nice but that was the extent of the good. My friend and I stayed here, and the advertised couch was different. It was barely a twin and my friend's feet hung off. We ended up buying an air mattress which we left for future guests. The hammock had dry rot and broke while i was laying on it. There was a drainage problem which backed up the shower (which they knew and gave the option of fixing while we were there) and the bottom of the toilet leaked. We tightened down the toilet for them. The air conditioner doesnt work well and is too small for the room. The TV speakers are blown so that sucked. And whomever does their cleaning does a terrible job. The vent in the shower is disgusting, there was red residue on the edges of the toilet (assuming blood), and shower tiles need deep cleaning. Oh, and they forbid you from wearing shoes inside.. I messaged the owners a few times with problems. They were slow to reply with a basic thanks for letting us know with zero attempts to correct. We ended up staying a few extra days and paying more for the hotel was worth it. 3/10 dont recommend. Vrbo was great and compensated us some for the trouble.

We had a fabulous time in Honolulu and this location was excellent - we were able to walk most places we needed to go and Uber was a viable option. The hotel has a few stores and some food options. Note that valet parking is now $45/day not the $28/day other reviewers had indicated. The place really does need a deep cleaning, the cupboards had food on them the was not wiped off, the shower was very slow to drain and all the walls had many layers of hand/fingerprints on them. The lanai is also very dirty - and the table and chairs are very flimsy with a 1/2 broken hammock - it was not a place we could really sit and enjoy the view. There are absolutely no extras - common cooking items, no beach towels, chairs, or umbrella. It felt very safe and the bedding was clean. But the AC is not able to provide enough cool air for the space - it was very hot sleeping! Overall, it did not detract from our stays enjoyment, but would be even better if a few things were addressed.

We chose Ilikai to be close to the finish line for a big canoe race. The rental company sent me so many emails about the stay ahead of time to make check-in easy. When I checked in 15 minutes after the contracted time, the unit had not been clean. No one had called or emailed me. After I attempted to call, and email, the cleaner arrived and told me the unit would be ready an hour and half later. The host had sent a message thru VRBO 15-20 minutes after check in informing me that the unit was not clean yet. They did not offer to compensate me in any way for the inconvenience or respond to my email explaining how overwhelming and disruptive the experience was. The unit was cute with decor, but oudated and could use updates. A/C was very loud with no way to quiet and keep cool. Shower drain is slow causing water to pool, the vent in the bathroom were dirty. The unit could use a deep clean and new pillows for the couch wich do not appear to be washed between guests. I would not stay here again or rent from Lei Hawaii Realty again. The location is great, which many rental companies exploit by not offering better service because guests will settle for less, paying more just to be in this location.

Me and my husband loved this place! It was so beautiful and in the perfect location for all the activities we had planned.

Spectacular view, very clean, comfy bed. Great location to walkable Waikiki! Wish there had been more comfortable seating inside and out. Would have made sitting on the balcony and the view more enjoyable. Two cushioned wicker chairs would do the trick! Very good value.

Nice nice just as pictured. We love staying at the Ilikai

The place had a nice view. Best I can say. A very hot full sun room. Decorated in a very cheap way. No Aloha sprit at all. And BEWARE this unit says it sleeps 3! NOT EVEN TRUE the sofa bed they are using is plastic and doesn’t even come close to being a bed. I will not stay here again.
