great place to stay in honolulu! we visited with my parents, so having 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms was perfect. the bedroom curtains were not black out, so we did end up waking up with the sun (not pleasant with a toddler). but there was a coffee shop at the base of the hotel, so that was nice.
the ilikai is right next door to a hotel with a lagoon and beach access so we didn't have to go far for the beach. we also had a rental car, so we did valet parking ($35/day) which was pricey but incredibly convenient.
