Luana Hawaii at the Ilikai Hotel is located at 1777 Ala Moana Blvd, the far western end of Waikiki, with a great variety of places nearly at its doorsteps. Just within a leisurely walk away from the building is the Waikiki harbor, the Hilton Hawaiian Village, and Fort DeRussy Park. As well as an ever-evolving scene of cafes, happy hours, international cuisine, and late-night bars to relax at with an exotic island refreshment.
Standing at the top 26th floor of the Ilikai Hotel in the exclusive Private Residences wing, our well-appointed penthouse is truly like no other. Upon entering the large open living space, you are instantly greeted by the gleaming Pacific Ocean and all its treasures. The floor-to-ceiling windows effortlessly frame the scene of your memorable Hawaiian vacation. Move through one of three sliding glass doors to reach the large, outdoor and private, semi-covered balcony where you can lounge or dine. The comfortable master suite with a full bath faces the ocean and leads to the balcony. The open living space separates the master from the two large bedrooms located on the opposite end of the unit. The front room of the two bedrooms looks out to the ocean with balcony access as well.
If you want to explore Waikiki, Ala Moana, or even the greater Oahu area, there are several transportation options. There are several bus stops near the Ilikai Hotel, which can take you to new surfing, snorkeling, shopping, or sightseeing locations. There is also a Biki rental bike stand nearby, which can be used to explore Waikiki. Uber is a great option to explore further away.
You will enjoy all the perks of the Ilikai Hotel building itself, which offers 2 pools, a famous pancake shop, an ice cream shop, and a mini shop, all at an affordable price compared to similar hotels in central Waikiki.

Inside the Ilikai Hotel & Luxury Suites, the apartment is on the top floor with great views. The carpet has a few stains, but that’s minor. It was ideal for our family over the holidays. The property manager was very responsive to out questions and one minor issue (a fan remote with a dead battery).

Family vacation for wedding with five adults and one child. Good location, but the decor of the apartment is pretty dated. Everything was clean and comfortable, and the view from the deck is amazing.

I loved this place as a quick and easy getaway. It was clean and cute with its furnishings. Large lanai. I wish we had more time to stay but I was so appreciative that I was able to book for one night. Would love to come back again

First the positives - amazing views and good location. Now the not so positives - although we knew the decor was dated by the photos, it seems some of the listed amenities (air conditioning and wifi) are being treated as "that's all we can do". When we arrived, the master bedroom was very hot and the AC wasn't able to keep up with the temp. When we asked that this be looked into, we were told that because of the duct work, that's as much cool air that could be directed to that part of the unit. We were provided an additional fan. Don't think this was a new issue with the unit. Also, there was a small rubber tub used to catch the condensation under that specific AC unit which is located in one of the closets in the master bathroom (which we weren't told about), which overflowed! Walked into the master after being out for the day to find the bathroom floor covered with water - which we cleaned up. Solution was to put a larger receptacle (5 gallon bucket) under the unit for the remainder of our stay. Also, the WiFi was spotty at best. This was important for us as we had some business to contend with during our trip and we kept getting kicked off. Solution was to unplug/ plug the router with hopes it would solve the issue - it didn't. Sent a follow up email asking management to address again (new router?) and it went unanswered. Had to rely on slower speed personal hotspots from our cell phones for internet access. There's more but only 1500 characters. Again, just ok

The property was as expected. This is a penthouse apartment with large rooms and a spacious interor. The views are amazing. However there are a few things to note. The interior is of an older style. There is carpet in the main living room and tile flooring around the kitchen. There is carpet in all the bedrooms. The main thing is that there is staining on the carpets. These are old staining and we knew that coming in as recounted by other customers so that wasnt too much of an issue. There was a gap in communication. During our stay there was a fire alarm and smoke detection check for all residents. This wasnt properly conveyed to us so when we went out for the way we arrived to a notice that security had entered our room. Yearly smoke alarm and speaker checks are understandable however it would have been nice to be notified a head of time, rather than returning to our room and finding out that security had entered the apartment when we weren't there. The apartment isvery clean and spacious. The hotel is a busy place bustling with people and all the staff were kind and friendly. The location is a prime spot as it is on the main beach front and right next to the Hilton resort. It is super central and near the major shopping locations in Waikiki. We had a wonderful stay.

We planned a last minute trip and the hosts were very accommodating and made the check-in and check-out process friction free. Great location.

The view from the living room, deck and two of the bedrooms is amazing-it overlooks the boat harbor and you can see the beach at Magic Island. The deck (26th floor) is fortified and safe, and the condo is spacious. It is a ten plus minute walk to the beach (where we snorkeled and saw sea turtles) and is about a mile from Ala Moana Mall. The condo is walking distance to many local shops and restaurants. Parking is conveniently available at the Boat Harbor Lot. The condo does not have a washer, dryer or dishwasher.

Carpet was stained throughout but I was aware of that at booking. Great view and A/C kept up no problem. Had no issues with fridge as previously reported. Would stay again with a family of 6!

We are from Hawaii so we were doing a small staycation. It was a very big room. More than enough room to fit our entire family. The parking there is valet service and during check in and check out time it can be quite busy. The hotel lobby was nice and spacious. There were many shops in the lobby. We took the elevators up to the 26th floor which was the penthouse. First glance when we walked in was the amount of space and the beautiful lanai area. However, upon having a closer look there were a few things we were disappointed in. The carpet in the room was quite stained and dirty. The kitchen had some outdated appliances. The refrigerator was updated however for some reason it wasn’t keeping cold. Our food ended up getting spoiled in the refrigerator. During our stay the bedroom off the kitchen area had a stand up fan, so I’m sure it is known that the AC doesn’t work well in that room. It was quite warm even with the curtains down and at night. It wouldn’t go below 76 degrees. One of the chairs on the dining room table was also about to break and very wobbly. The room came with towels and amenities which was really nice. As for the hotel pool, we didn’t go in because it was quite small and very crowded so we opted to go to the Hilton lagoon which was a nice quick walk. Overall, it was a nice staycation with the family. I loved the size of the room and the views from the lanai were great. The room could use a lot of updating and fix the AC and refrigerator and get that carpet out.

Overall, the place offers good pricing, space and most of the amenities we needed. AC, kitchen, 3 bedrooms, 2 baths were important. The view and location were amazing. However, parking was valet only, no washer/dryer or dishwasher. Unfortunately, the carpet is white and has some old stains, which was a bit of a turn off. Otherwise, we’ve enjoyed our stay.

The decor is old fashioned but the posted pictures are accurate. The condo was clean but could use a really deep cleaning and new carpet. One of the AC units broke while we were there and the property manager responded quickly, although a technician was not available until the next day. We were very pleased with our stay in 2602.
