542 Ilikai was a great place to spend four days. It's walking distance to Waikiki, to a beautiful lagoon for families with young kids, and to the sailboat marina where we walked along the docks and talked with many sailboat owners. We rented electric bikes from Hawaiian Style Rentals on Lemon Rd for three days instead of having a rental car. It was our first time riding e-bikes; super easy and fun to get around the busy Waikiki area. We even rode the bikes up to Diamond Head and then hiked to the top. Ala Moana Park is close by, beautiful, and less crowded than Waikiki, and it's right on the water too. The Ilikai has an elevator for bikes and surfboards (called the bathers elevator) so we brought our bikes to the room each night. The condo had everything we needed. We shopped for groceries at Foodland Farms at Ala Moana Shopping Center nearby. Fantastic store where you can stock up on prepared meals from their deli areas! We loved sitting on the spacious balcony to enjoy a gorgeous view (just like the photos) with our coffee every morning, and wine in the evening. The host replied to our messages quickly, whenever we had questions. I highly recommend staying at 542 Ilikai!
