I really enjoyed my stay at Waikiki Marina Resort at The Ilikai. The room was exceptionally clean and spacious, complete with a well-stocked kitchenette which really came in handy given the high dining costs in Honolulu. The location was fantastic, just a short stroll from the beach, and the Friday night fireworks were a nice touch. However, I did find that the air conditioning unit was quite noisy, though maintenance was prompt in addressing the issue.

I recently enjoyed my stay at the Waikiki Marina Resort At The Ilikai. The location was fantastic for exploring without being right in the busyness of Waikiki. While my studio was clean and well-stocked with a full kitchen, I did notice it needed some maintenance—it could use a touch of TLC. The staff were friendly and helpful, although I encountered some hiccups with the air conditioning. Overall, it was a pleasant experience despite a few minor inconveniences.

The location is super convenient, being close to both the beach and local attractions, and my studio was well-stocked, perfect for whipping up meals.
