The space
WHAT OUR GUESTS LOVE ABOUT THE SPACE
✔ Ocean view that really sets the ambiance for the stay!

THINGS TO NOTE (QUIRKS)

✔ Balcony that is perfect for relaxation!
✔ The Ilikai Hotel is more of a hotel style building and was built around the 1970s. This particular unit is relatively upgraded and the building is well-maintained but as most buildings in Waikiki, it does not feel new but certainly upgraded. Personally, coming from Chicago, I noticed buildings in Waikiki felt older as well but I was enamored by the weather, the beach and surroundings.
✔ The building does routine AC maintenance, plumbing (water shut down) and pest control and you'll see notices in the elevator, we will try to remind you too.
✔ There's no dishwasher in this unit (kind of common in Hawaii, weird for a Chicagoan).
✔ Plumbing seems sensitive in the building. We do our best to check but I find that the drains are tricky.
✔ Noise: This unit is on the 7th floor so it's quite high from the street but you may hear noise, if you're sensitive.

Guest access
When you arrive in Waikiki, you go to the building called the Ilikai Hotel (not to be confused with the Ilikai Marina Condos across the street), the address is 1777 Ala Moana Blvd.

There is a common paid laundry area on each floor.

You will be provided with a smart lock for entry.

This is a private accommodation and the apartment is exclusively yours for the duration of your stay, so relax, unwind, and make yourself at home!

Other things to note

A maximum of 6 guests are allowed in the space, and the sofa bed can be used as an additional bed.

We offer sofabed linen for $50. If you require sofabed linen during your stay, simply let us know and we'll provide it for your comfort.

Please remove your shoes when entering the home.

No pets are allowed in the space, and no smoking is allowed in the apartment or on the premises.

Please refrain from hanging towels or any items on the balcony. Doing so may result in a fee from the building administration, which will be charged to you.

PARKING OPTIONS:

Ilikai Hotel Valet Parking: It is $45/day and you have daily in and out privileges. This is not part of the booking and is paid directly to the building. Prices are subject to change.

Marina Parking Garage: This garage is attached to the building and is very convenient. It is priced at $28/day. Be mindful not to keep belongings and valuables in a parked car. Prices are subject to change

Street Parking: behind the building and near the harbor. It’s $1/hr and can be a good option for shorter parking times. Not sure about overnight parking, I have experience with this pre-covid and it was fine but I would be mindful not to keep belongings or valuables in the car when parked outside. Prices are subject to change.

Due to the convenient central location of the space, some noise from the street, music, pool, or restaurant patio areas is possible from the surrounding area.

The AC units in the building are all similar and not 100% noiseless. If you're sensitive to any noise, you may want to consider other options.

Nearby is a large grocery store where you can pick up food, beach, and toiletry essentials.

The building management usually conducts maintenance. As this is out of our hands, please read the announcements posted on the elevator for more information.

During your stay, should anything become broken or damaged, please notify the host immediately so that repairs and reporting can be done in a timely manner. Unreported damages may result in a fee and being reported.

In Hawaii's tropical paradise, you might encounter a bug or two in any property. It is rare for us due to our continuous proactive efforts to maintain pest-free units but it can still happen.
