kitchen

We we arrived, we were warmly greeted by the staff.  Our assigned studio unit was clean, spacious, had a king bed and a sofa sleeper.  The best part is that is had a full kitchen which allowed us to cook some of our meals and saved us money from eating out all of the time.  

The resort had a low key vibes and wasn't overly crowded.  The restaurants at the resort are reasonably priced.  

Great stay at the Illikai.

The view we had was unbelievable great, location was easy to navigate and the tours we have scheduled were dropped off and picked up within a block of the resort. The resort was clean and the pools were very relaxing. We ate on the top of the roof at Pasco. Food was fabulous.

Dream vacation

Lovely room looking out to the ocean over the marina and pools.  Good restaurants offering good food from early morning to late night. Well appointed studio with well set up amenities and wi-if. Comfortable and very easy to use.

Great place on Waikiki

The resort was a very nice. They had everything we needed and very friendly and polite. The only thing I disliked was the TV being to small. Besides that everything else was awesome. Oh and the bed was comfortable too.

Awesome vacation stay

We were diverted to the Royal Gardens resort because our room at the Ilikai was not available.  To accommodate our reluctance to move, they provided us with extra incentives.  The Royal Gardens resort was ok, but far from the beach.

Our staycation experience

After several days of vacation on Oahu, my family spent two nights at the Ilikai Resort, using points from Wyndham Rewards.  It was a very nice hotel, and we were pleased with the room, amenities, location, etc.  Although we did not stay for any length of time, it was a very nice setting for access to the beach/ocean, nearby shopping, restaurants, etc.

If you are traveling through Wyndham Rewards, the desk area is off the beaten path ... you kinda have to hunt for it inside the large lobby.  There is a desk area for another resort in the same building, along with desks for rental cars, guest services, etc.  However, the "other" resort desk staff were not very helpful with my family ... for whatever reason.  We found our way around, but if you arrive late at night, you might want to connect with Wyndham before your arrival ... for enhanced instructions.

The room provided a king bed, along with a couch-bed ... both were very comfortable.  The full-size kitchen was nice, and if we had stayed longer, we would have purchased additional food ... saving money from eating out.  Our balcony opened up to the pool, with a partial view of the ocean ... which was AWESOME!  We made this request a few days in advance, and although the staff could not promise anything, we still received the location we desired ... hats off to the staff!

Would we stay here again?  Very much so!  As members of the Disney Vacation Club, we likely will stay at Aulani Resort and Spa ... but for the days after our trip, before flying out, this would be our "go to" hotel as a base camp in Waikiki.

Excellent Site in Waikiki!

The Ilikai is historic famous for being the first luxury high rise back in the day and made famous by being featured in the OG Hawaii 5-0 opening credits. 

The Shell Vacation condos checkin is different from the main hotel checkin. We had to look for the office on the side on the 2nd floor but check in was easy. We checked in before 4 pm but there were rooms available. We got a room facing Ala Moana Blvd so no fancy Ocean or diamond head views given we got a lower rate:

Because it is an older building, it can seem a little dated. The air-conditioning in our unit was super loud but the advantage is that we didn’t hear any street noise. There was a leak in a unit on a different floor but the good news was that it didn’t impact us. We got a unit with a refrigerator, microwave, toaster, coffeemaker and stove ad there were basic utensils. It was not as nicely equipped as many time shares but met our basic needs. The laundry room was on our floor but unlike other Shell properties, we had to pay for the washer/dryer. 

Location is next to Hilton Hawaiian Village and the man made lagoon so off the main Waikiki strip and a quieter. Convenient for the Friday night fireworks where there’s also free live entertainment in the courtyard. Self- Parking is across the street by the Marina for $1/hour so convenient for those renting a car during the stay. Walking distance to Ala Moana Mall so easy to grab groceries at Foodland or to grab takeout (has many food court options including Chick-Fil-A, Raising Cane and Jollibee. 

All in all, even though the building is old, it is historic and the inside units are modern enough that we slept well. The location is convenient and we had visions of Jack Lord doing his thing on the balcony.

OG 5-0 historic building off the mains strip

So close to everything we needed plus so much on site. Clean and quiet rooms with great city view. Exit bldg to the marina, lagoon and ocean. Fabulous looks and Pesca was great restaurant. Mall and food store nearby as well. Great staff too. 

Outstanding location

Resort is away from waikiki beach which we liked-The morning walks around the lagoon -fantastic
Friendly staff when ever we ask for more supplies or directions to get around.
Resort is close to shopping center and variety of food.
We will return

Great Location

Close to everything, beach, restaurants and other activities. They have several stores next to it. But the resort didn’t have cleaning service and no gym.  The resort has two pools one for swimming and the other one for sun taking
