The Ilikai is a great property, a family friendly venue and easy walk to every where Ala Moana, Walmart two Ross Dress For Less and many other shops, restaurants and malls all a walking distance. It is nice to walk down the boardwalk on Waikiki and then just cut over to the main Boulevard. The Ilikai is a drop off and pick up point for all tour groups and airport pick up and drop off.
The views from the balcony are great, easy to sit there and spend hours looking at the view. There is a great coffee at the Aroma coffee shop.
Dishwasher does not work, seems to have been out of action for a while, this should be reflected in your information about the apartment. Host quickly replaced broken shower holder while I was there. The swipe card for the door stopped working, this was fixed via the security office at Ilikai, once they confirmed with Host and viewed my passport.
This is a great location to stay at.
