Bring plenty of Clorox wipes! Its safest and easier to just pay for valet parking. Yes it's costly but you're paying for peace of mind. Ilikai is VERY busy! From the main entrance to waiting for an elevator. Also, security will NOT let you on the elevator if you have on a wet suit, inflatables or surf boards. The restaurant Cinnamons is really good, but the Birds there are bold and ruthless! It's almost quite disgusting, there's bird poop on the chairs and the birds look deformed and almost zombie like. Over all Waikiki is selling tourist the beach and it could really be so much more, but the homeless population, the smell, and the city itself being so over populated you'll have a better time and enjoy Hawaii on the North Shore. But, experience it for yourself.
