*Remodeled Oceanfront in Waikiki - Ilikai Marina
great place, gréât location, great host, highly recommend! 👍🏽🙏🏽

Private waterfront studio with pool and lake view
Live Aloha in Kailua! I’ve been coming to Oahu for 15 years, this is by far my favorite space and place to stay in Hawaii. It is a quiet and safe neighborhood, everything you need for a day at the beach, and relaxing pool. Again, best place I’ve ever stayed at in Kailua. Close to beach and my favorite restaurants. The host is friendly and helpful with two wonderful doggies Zeus and Harvest, who I miss! This unit is affordable and gorgeous! Book it while you can! It is a gem! Pictures support experience and expectations. It is even more gorgeous than the photos. Have fun in the Sun. Aloha!

Ocean/Marina/Pool View 2BD Corner Unit AC @ Ilikai
Complete remodel - everything was brand new. Clean clean clean! Pretty cool tech gadgets in the condo - auto blinds, water dispenser, smart mirrors. Location is everything, view is second to none.

Ocean views at the Ilikai - Free Parking!
This was the perfect spot for a visit to Honolulu. We were mixing business and pleasure - a conference at the Hawaii Convention Center, as well as some touring around the island - and Elina's place was a wonderful launching point for both. It is a short walk from the convention center, but also conveniently located for Waikiki, Diamond Head, and other local attractions. The combination of kitchen and parking space was very helpful indeed. Elina's recommendations for restaurants and activities were right on. She also answered questions very quickly. All in all, a terrific place to stay.

BEST Location, Ocean Views and Parking!
Good location, walkable to Ala Moana Shopping Center and other restaurants/stores. Both elevators were working when we arrived so that helped allay some concerns posted by previous guests. The apartment was well-stocked, smaller than I expected (I would not recommend the space for more than 2 adults) but adequate for a stay where we were out and about most of the day. In-room washer/dryer was the gamechanger and really helped not having to go to the common area especially since the elevators could be slow. Pool and hot tub were a little small and not very aesthetically-pleasing (they were located on the ground floor, not many chairs, but serviceable if you had kids who wanted to play). Lots of instructions to get in which was fine. The door code locks you out after 3 wrong entries which seems a little restrictive but we managed. Overall nice touched with the chocolates, kitchen had everything we needed for a short stay, and it was a good experience.

Seabreeze Studio (Legal Rental)
Angie listing advertises a studio space that you can expect to see when you arrive. Aside from certain decor for listing photos, all of the amenities stated are present. Check-in was flexible - they made sure we would be able to check in earlier than they anticipated to accommodate our early flight in. The shower was very strong when we had first used it (like spraying hail) but the pressure had eventually reduced to a more tolerable pressure on its own on the second use. Elevator availability was a negative we experienced but out of Angie's control and a minor inconvenience. Location was great - a brief walk's distance to Waikiki. Parking at the building has changed to $33/night with their 1-5 overnight passes being made available. Local recommendations were given - definitely ask Angie about it in case you want to squeeze some recommendations into your itinerary. 10/10 for our purpose of a week in Honolulu, I would recommend to anyone looking for a place in Waikiki. Thanks Angie!

Waikiki 5-Star Marina Stay – Ocean View 1BR
This place is conveniently located in the Ala Moana area and offers beautiful views of the ocean with shops just a quick walk away. We had an excellent stay here!

Rainbow M Ocean View-NO.1-Open Free parking!
Location is perfect. Lots of restaurants and stores that are walking distance. Also has a bus stop at the front lobby Condo itself is spacious. Kitchen has a lot of appliances that can be used such as, toaster, rice cooker and even has a blender to make smoothies. Fridge has a built-in water and ice maker. AC is loud but never bothered any of us. Very convenient to have it all in the rooms plus the common area. Showers aren’t too strong but had hot water. One of the toilets even has a bidet. Pillows are comfy and beds are the memory foam kind. A little too soft for my sensitive back but the other ladies I was with never complained! One of the rooms has a walk-in closet that has lots of hangers, air mattress and extra blankets! It definitely is a kid friendly place. It also has boogie boards, beach chairs and cooler bag. Best part is that it has a stacked washer and dryer IN THE UNIT! Overall a great to stay for a big group. PJ was also very helpful:)

Waimea Bay Studio 1BD With Sauna - NS Oahu
We had the best time here. So close to Waimea Bay which became our fav beach, it was less than a 10 min walk! Absolutely wonderful place to stay, also very kind and helpful host!

One of a kind Beach front 2brm ocean and mnt views
Great location with incredible scenery. It's a very quiet and private area. I would recommend staying here if you're looking to be away from the busyness of the city.

Beautiful Lagoon Tower by Hilton- 2bd villa
The location of this place was amazing. As a family we have always stayed further down closer to the zoo but this location really does have it all. The beaches are amazing, everything is still easily within walking distance and the Hilton property really does have it all. The suite we stayed in was clean, great AC and lots of space for a family of 4. The kitchen could use a few more items to cook with. We went over Christmas and tried to eat in a bit more than usual and had to be VERY creative with our cooking because of what the kitchen had to offer. We throughly enjoyed our stay and you know it’s been a great vacation when you’re sad to leave!

Hale Mahina Beach House
Nice beach house. Little busier road than expected to get to the beach, but liked the access to the nice beach and easy access to local attractions.

LAST MIN Lagoon Tower by Hilton- 2 bedroom Aloha
Hilton Village is easy. Has everything you could need or want so you don’t spend time driving all over in Honolulu traffic! We wanted to arrive and park it! This place allowed us to do just that!!

Your Zen Haven
Arlee’s listing, nestled in the Ko’Olina Hillside Villas community was a perfect fit for our family of four adults (parents, daughter, and son-in-law).. The two bedroom and two and one half bath layout worked very well for us.. The kitchen was amply supplied with a variety of pots, pans, dishes, flatware, and cooking utensils.. Coffee was courtesy of a Kuerig and a few provided K-Cups and condiments.. After a trip to the local Safeway ($$$) and subsequent trips to Target ($$) we used the kitchen as much as we needed to, preparing breakfast nearly daily, and morning coffee always!! The property is within walking distance (for those so inclined) to the nearby Ko’Olina Resort complex (Marriott & Disney), the Ko’Olina Golf Course, and several restaurants and shops.. The area is also in the flight path for the international airport, so frequent plane spotting was a bonus.. All in all, aside from a few improvements we recommended via the messaging feature, we had an outstanding stay!!

🏝 Ilikai Condo Waikiki Beach Ocean Views
This Airbnb on the 13th floor was beautiful✨️modern, super clean, and perfect for our stay. 🚙It didn’t include parking, but we found $1/hour street parking nearby which worked out fine. 🍴The kitchen was awesome and made it easy to prep snacks and quick meals for the kids after a swim or late night. 👌The apartment felt fresh and well looked after, with everything we needed. Great location with easy access to shops, the lagoon, and the Ilikai amenities. As a whānau travelling with kids, it gave us a peaceful and comfortable base. We’d definitely stay here again. Ngā mihi nui for having us—mauri ora! 🌊🌺

City & Palm View Oceanfront Bliss w/ Free Parking
We had a great family stay—3 adults and 2 teens—and the sleeping arrangements worked perfectly with a King, two Queens, and a pull-out couch. The apartment was clean, nicely updated, and in a great location: about a 10-minute walk to the beach by the Hilton lagoon, with a convenience store nearby and garage parking with elevator access. Check-in was easy with a personalized code. The building is older, so the elevators are small and there were occasional waits. We noticed city noise and early morning roosters (earplugs were provided), but the roosters became part of the Hawaii charm. Beach towels and chairs were a nice touch. The host was very responsive and accommodating. We’d definitely stay here again!

27F Ocean Suite - Steps away from Beach
I was not unable to return the fob and parking pass after exiting the parking lot since the key code expired on the front door and I messaged Charlie right away. Fortunately, I was able to leave it with the security desk and Charlie acknowledged promptly, super responsive which is appreciated. Prime location, stunning views of the beach and Diamond Head. Book it!!! :)

Penthouse 38th FL, Diamond Head View, Free Parking
Great location. About 7-8min walk to beach. The hosts were excellent and very communicative. The apartment was very comfortable and very clean. Very easy to get in and out. The apartment is a bit pricey for not being beachfront or not having an ocean view. Not a lot of benefit for being on the top floor if only getting a city view.

*Serendipity on the Moana! - Legal & Beachfront!*
The place was absolutely incredible. From sunrises and sunsets, Charmaine's place has everything you could ask for in a Hawaiian vacation spot. All the amenities makes it feel like home and the area lets you experience Hawaii with out the hustle and bustle of the city.

Studio Suite @ Ko Olina Marriott Vacation Club :D
Beautiful surroundings, easy check-in & out. Everything you might need is easily accessible - coffee, snacks, pool toys, snorkeling gear, sunscreen, etc. Neighbors were a little noisy a couple of nights, but nothing outrageous.

Beachfront direct ocean views, 21st FL at Ilikai
This was a lovely condo on the 21st floor overlooking the marina and ocean. Beautiful. Our host was very responsive. Check in was very easy. There is a restaurant on the first floor which had breakfast, lunch and dinner. Food was delicious, staff was friendly and they had live music. All in all a lovely stay.

Panoramic OceanView/STEPS FROM BEACH/FreeParking
This place was perfect. I love how thoughtful James was and made sure to have plenty of beach items to make the trip more convenient. Pictures look exactly like the Airbnb and his detailed instructions on how to access the property and parking spot were so helpful. I messaged him about checking in early and he was so responsive. I’d definitely use him again in the future and recommend him as well.
