"Convenient stay vacation
I’ll vacation getaway was so convenient. We was right at the corner of the beach and not far from Walmart. There was restaurants around us and we had a beautiful kitchen . A beautiful Wendell view where we could watch the sunset. Everyone was so helpful and nice. The maintenance man came up and fixed the shower not long after I called. I would definitely recommend this place for vacation getaway."

"Value for Money
This apartment provided a good sized, clean space & excellent functionality with everything in working order... as well as a lovely marina/water view. We loved the location as we often escaped the crowds and swam at Magic Island, we could walk to Ala Moana centre & we could shop at the locals' grocery store for breakfast & lunch items which we cooked in our kitchen ... and we had great service from James & Captain Cook Resorts... thank you ! .... However, you get what you pay for : and the money we saved staying here meant that we were in an apartment which would love an update. It also meant that we had considerable noise, not only the expected noise from the construction below in the Chart House (which started at around 6.30am) but also the unexpected, and significant 24 hour a day noise of traffic & people in the street just below.... I was so so so very thankful for my earplugs. The view was also spoiled by huge amounts of rubbish floating in the water below which was highly visible from the apartment (such a shame the marina & local council don't clean it up)... and a very ugly & huge skip bin full of rubbish from the Chart House reno right in front. I would definitely recommend paying more to be on a much higher floor but may I say that with the extremely & shockingly high prices which we encountered in the area, it was really nice to save some money. We do hope this feedback helps ... Kind Regards - Des and Dianne."

"A unit to improve
This unit is located on the 3rd floor above the Chart House Restaurant. They are in a major renovation since March, and the work is in progress, but not finished yet. Lot of noise very early in the morning and during the day. The unit needs also a good fresh painting, and the kitchen needs a strong full cleaning."

"Bad situation. Management company tried to make it right
Our stay was a struggle due to the construction which including ear-numbing jack hammering. The management company tried to make it right, but we recommend anyone staying in 2024 to check on the construction below. Also, killed a cockroach. "

"It was ok.
The location was perfect. But the bed was horribly uncomfortable and obviously very cheap. If you are going to rent out a place you should at least have a decent mattress. And if there is a bar directly under the unit this should be disclosed to the renters. The bar had loud nightly bands which made sleeping very difficult. "

"Would come back!
The check in/out was super easy and James was very quick to respond! Our condo was on the third floor. Unfortunately, it was very noisy on the third floor. Tons of outside/inside noise early. Also, I couldn’t get the shower head to work. I was very impressed with how stocked the condo was and the location is the best! Tons of places to walk to including the beach! I would definitely come back again!"

"Awesome View and Comfortable Unit!
Overall, we enjoyed our stay at this unit. Great size and comfortable, even the sofa bed. Great inventory in kitchen and beach items. Very clean. The only complaint is the noise from people on street, restaurants and even from our own building. Sometimes up to 2am. Not much anyone can do about that. Loved our view of marina and ocean!"

"Our stay in Ilikai Marina
The condom was really centrical to anywhere you would like to go. Beaches really nearby and super markets and shopping mall also in walking distance. It was not the newest but it was clean and everything we needed was in there. Even the beach seats and beach towels:-)"

"Clean, comfortable but noisy
The condo was clean and comfortable. It is very conveniently located and I never had trouble finding parking in the garage. Parking is of course a separate fee. Be aware that the condo faces the marina and it is very loud at night. Most nights, even weekdays it feels like being adjacent to a nightclub. I had to use earplugs every night to be able to sleep. "

Great location clean condo in the middle of everything you can walk everywhere the marina is your front door with a great restaurant and bar down stairs walk to the lagoon with your kids for a great day. "

"A little too close to everything
The location is right above the local restaurant, during the weekends, it does get loud as restaurant guests are congregating right outside of the condo's lanai. "

"Last Minute
The pictures are very representative of the rental.
Pros:
Good property location
Needs Improvement:
The sleeper/sofa could be updated- all 3 cushions are a single unit and it kept slipping forward when you are sitting there.
Provide instructions & troubleshooting for the TV/Cable remote.
Provide instructions on how to activate the shower head in the bathroom - we finally figured it out to pull down on the tub spout.
Inside shower liner should be replaced with a heavier one and where there are more magnets to attach to the bathtub so the liner doesn't keep sticking to you in the shower!
Cons:
A lot of street/people noise
Overall:
Not a bad place - Next time I would stay on a higher floor"

"Oahu Stay
We had a great time exploring Oahu. The rental unit is a bit outdated, but has everything you need for a simple stay. It is in a decent location overlooking the marina, and it’s a very short walk to a nice sandy beach! Parking is limited in the area so it was great to have access to the parkade. There are quite a few restaurants in walking distance too, which was helpful. There is a very small balcony to watch the sunsets and fireworks on Friday nights. Communication with the rental company was excellent. Overall, the unit was as advertised. "

"Great Unit - Ilikai Marina 386
If you like to have the flexibility to set your own schedule, save a little $$ by cooking a few of your own meals, this unit provides for all you will need. The management was very attentive to our needs (quickly replace a broken coffee pot). This is Waikiki, and you will have some 'night life noise' in the evenings. Recommend paying for the parking with the unit."

"Derenzy’s Ilikai Marina Condo Revew
Spent 2-weeks at Condo 386. Outstanding experience with no complaints. Have stayed in this complex before and love the close proximity to the beach, Hilton Lagoon, and numerous places to eat. Just a short walk to the famed Waikiki Beach area of Honolulu. Will give this experience a 10 out of 10. Loved it so much, we’ve already booked #386 for next year...

"Really great value for money
Our family (2 adults, 1 teen and 1 child) rented this condo for 12 nights and were very happy with everything from the initial booking experience, communication and reception from the property manager Paul.
The condo is exactly as pictured and described with a lovely view out to the marina that we were able to experience some lovely sunrise and sunsets.
The location is VERY handy to activities, shopping and food. We used the BIKI hire bikes that are placed in various places nearby regularly as well.
Also included are all the usual kitchen utensils and cooking items required to self cater and there is an ABC right across the road for any urgent supplies.
The parking staff and attendants were lovely. We had a car for our entire stay and found the pre-pay parking system just fine, it also helped that Paul gave us directions on how to be efficient.
We are from NZ and so we could not download the laundry app to pay for the mmachines electronically so had to collect quarters and some of the dryers did not work very well but there were some hangers in the room so we could dry some things that way.
As mentioned in other reviews, it is positioned on the 3rd floor so I would not recommend if you are a light sleeper - this was not an issue for us and we would happily recommend renting this place."

Fabulous location, and value. Clean, comfortable with an easy check in. "
Dec 28, 2018 - Sandra D., Lehigh Acres, FL
"11/11/18 Visit
I would have rated the stay 5 stars except the parking information was not correct, you had to provide your own quarters ($5.00 is needed to wash & dry one load) for laundry, the AC unit would not keep the set temperature and had to be reset periodically."

"A good stay
Everything is perfect, except the pub downstairs is a bit noisy in the evenings."
Apr 02, 2018 - , Victoria, BC
"Just OK
We experienced the same complaint that others in the past have experienced: The A/C does not cool the unit very well. We stayed Christmas thru New Years when the temperatures outside are moderate. I can't image what it must be like in the unit in the summer. We booked the unit because of the location and the view. The location is great but what good is paying for a view you can't use because you have to keep the shades closed all day to keep the sun's heat out. If you open the shades for very long you start sweating in the unit. The unit was clean. The couch is a futon that converts to a bed and the cushions are loose and it's not super comfortable to sit on."

"noisy location
The apartment was lovely, but getting a good night sleep is difficulty. The apartment is not sound proof. You can hear all the noise from outside, the apartment above. The aircon start up through the night, the fan in the bathroom was like an aeroplane take off. So if you thinking of getting so rest, this is not the place. beautiful view. "

"Nice room, watch your kids
Our stay at Ilikai Marina with Captain Cook was really good.
Paul Tucker was very nice and professional as the property manager. He was able to answer all of our questions and help us when necessary.
The room was very nice and well maintained.
Although the location is good and the room was nice there were a few problems with the rental that I feel were out of Captain Cook's control.
The balcony has a gap on the right side big enough for our kids to fit through. We were not warned about this beforehand so I think no one might have guessed anything could fit through.
Also we had a rental car that we tried to use on July 4th. Unfortunately, the company that runs the parking garage connected to the building ignores parking passes on this day.
Other reviews mentioned the noise from the restaurant downstairs but it didn't cause any trouble for us or our children.
Would recommend."

"Ilikai Marina
We love staying at the Ilikai Marina and working with Captain Cook Resorts. Condo #386 was very clean and comfortable but, being on a lower floor, it was somewhat noisy at night (although it did not keep us awake). Paul Tucker, the property manager, was delightful to work with. We enjoyed our stay very much."

"Feb 2017
We had a wonderful stay in Wiakiki. The condo was perfect and had plenty of space. The only down side was the bed. I think the mattress needs to be replaced. They layout of the condo was great for 4 ppl. It is a very short walk to the beach. Everything is within walking distance but if you do rent a car the parking fees are very reasonable. "

"Condo with a marina view
Condo was comfortable, with the exception of the bed which is creaky and slightly lumpy.
The perhaps the lanai could have a small table and chairs like the other Lanais in the building. The rug under the coffee table/ foot rest is ugly and does not match anything in the lounge, perhaps a coral shade rug or paint the walls in a more neutral colour would help make the living area look a bit more 'up market?'"

"Ilikai Marina
Overall, we enjoy staying at the Ilikai Marina. We have stayed there for the past two years for two to three weeks each time because it offers good value in a great location for us. We did, however, experience three problems---the refrigerator leaked water on the inside and had to be mopped up each day, there were ants in the bathroom, and the noise from the first floor restaurant and bar sometimes prevented us from sleeping---luckily it quieted down after 1 AM each (and every) night. These were not problems last year, so next year we hope these can be resolved."

"Perfect
Easy to check in, everything worked well. It was a pleasure to use the kitchen, as I must say, going out for dining is crazy. The prices at Waikiki-Beach are not from this world. Use the bus to visit Pearl Harbour, the Single ticket is $ 2,50. The busstop is close to the main street. "

"Wonderful Honolulu
The arranging of the apartment was so easy, the paperwork easy and communication was excellent with Capitan Cook, The apartment itself was ok. Have stayed in the building one a year for around two weeks at a time for the past 7 years. This was the first time in this apartment and the first time on level 3. My advise DO NOT STAY ON LEVEL 3. The apartment itself was excellently clean and had everything you need no question about that. Coin operated laundry on level 8 $2.25 per wash and $2.25 per dry take your own powder, everything work well especially the fire alarms in the apartment that went off regularly when cooking toast as us aussies do for breakfast as well as at times when baking. The down side to level three is the noise and there is a lot of it. There is a night club on level two, which we were very much aware of but had no idea how noisy it was going to be and the noise did not stop at 10pm or 11pm but could be heard most nights up and until 3am and 4am. The noise was some music but usually people carrying on yelling etc. the bed was a king size but when you turned over duri8ng the night the noise the squeaking was disturbing. The internet was horrid and my two attempt to have it fixed did not work so I gave up. I could not hook up to the internet at all during my stay and the other person was constantly logged in and out by breaks in the continuous log in. There was plenty of clean linen sheets and towels, couple of soaps were left, and enough other basic cleaning essentials to get you started toilet paper etc so this was very good. as I said the apartment was very good but the things I have noted above that detract from your holiday have never happened in the other apartments I have stayed in previous years. Having said that this will not stop be returning to the Ilikai Marina but if apartment 386 was the only one available then I would stay elsewhere. "

"I loved this condo!!
I was in Honolulu for business and decided to try a condo instead of the normal hotel. I absolutely loved this unit and loved the location. The condo was very clean, well equipped, the air conditioner did the job, beautiful view of the marina and ocean. I was initially concerned that I was right above a restaurant and bar, but it never disturbed my sleep during my 9 night stay. I must also sing praises to Paul from . Paul is professional, polite and always willing to help in any way he can.
This will be my 1st choice for all future trips to Honolulu."

"Great Holiday
Second time to beautiful Oahu! So happy we rented a condo instead of hotel room. Much more relaxed and spacious. Awesome to have a kitchen! Loved dealing with Captain Cook Rentals very easy, love the app, and great employees! The unit was just as it looked, the pullout sofa was uncomfortable but found one side better then other. We would have liked having one mornings worth of coffee/tea in unit since we arrived late at night. Everything else in unit was super! Just a note about restaurant down below...very noisy specially Thursday -Saturday and you can really hear street traffic and people, but we are in a city! "

"Great Marina View
Very lovely place. Everything was perfect except the bed. When we laid down, you could tell that it was not level. Our feet were higher than our heads. So I remade the bed, we slept with heads at the foot of the bed. No big deal"

Loved the location and the property was exactly as described. We just happened to come at a time when they were doing building maintenance (eg. water shut off for 4 hrs,floor tiling by elevators)Overall still very pleased with our stay and would be happy to return. Thank you."

"Happy Returns
Fourth time with Captain Cook and thoroughly enjoyed the vacation. Unit was as described with no surprises. AC is old - but did the job, eventually. Ceiling fan was great. Sofa bed was surprisingly comfortable for one person, possibly two. Kitchen utensils were so-so, but worked for two adults and two kids (oldest 3yrs). Local property manager (Paul) was very pleasant and accommodating. Street noise not an issue when patio door closed. Overall, highly recommended. Only problem with the vacation was the diminished value of the Canadian dollar."

"Great Location
Great location. Walking distance to both Waikiki beach and lagoon on one direction, Ala Moana shopping centre the other and cafes/restaurants in another.
Room ideal for small family. We requested additional roll out cot, as sofa bed not very big.
Air con cools, but not very cold. I think this is getting replaced or upgraded in next couple of months??
Will definitely book with Captain Cook again when we come back!"
Feb 11, 2016 - Rhonda S., Brisbane, XX
"Good location, nice apartment
Stayed here with my family on a pre-Christmas holiday. Apartment was lovely and well set up. Paul was a friendly and efficient property manager.
Guests should note that the Air Conditioning is massively underpowered and cannot really cool the room in the afternoon sun. Other people staying in the building told me that was true for the whole building, not specific to this condo. Plenty of fans are supplied and if you like it warm you will enjoy your stay."

Grat location, great condo. Other than not having any air conditioning (because they were in the process of changing them) the unit was wonderful. It came with all supplies, snorkeling gear etc.. The owner gave us 20% back every day that we didn't have AC. I would definitely stay here again."

This was our first ever trip to Waikiki and the first time we have ever stayed in accommodation other than a hotel or organised accommodation with a tour. After our experience with Captain Cook Vacation Rentals, I don't know if we would stay in a hotel ever again.
The unit was spacious, very clean, fantastic location, and great value.
The whole process was easy and trouble free. I would definitely use Captain Cook Vacation Rentals again.

"Great place
I stayed in this flat for 8 days. Overall it was a great experience. The place was clean, had all that we needed for the stay. Location was also right by the beach, just 5 mins walking distance to a lagoon nearby. The only thing was that the shower was pretty clogged when we got there, so the bathtub would easily fill when you're taking a shower. But other than that the place was great. "

"Great location and nice room and services
I stayed at this condo for 10 days. The room is very clean and nice. Because it was located on the third floor, we could hear some noise from the street. But after 23:00it was usually quiet. It is only 5mins walk from ala moana shopping center. If there is anything inconvenient, I called the contact person of the Captain cook and they would come in like five minutes. I definitely recommend this condominium. "

"Great little spot.
What a nice little condo. The only things we didn't like were the bed was terribly uncomfortable(very very hard) and on the weekend the noise from the main floor pub was a bit loud. The pub we could live with but I don't think we would rent again because of the bed which is too bad because everything else was perfect. The management company was amazing to deal with. "

"Great location
The location is amazing and the rental was clean and stocked with everything you could possibly need, even down to the snorkeling gear! However, I was not met at the property and waited around for 10 minutes before going to the room. I decided to try the handle and found that it was unlocked. I was not informed that it was open for me to go into until about a half-hour past when I was supposed to meet the property manager. That's when he called me to see how I was doing. The AC isn't very strong either but it's not too much of an issue if you're out during the hottest parts of the day. Don't try to open the window to cool off, either. While the location makes for an AMAZING view of the sunset, it also has the sun beating down on the property."

We enjoyed the view a lot and found the location really good for us. The bed was too big for the room. The knives were dull. The ice trays did not let loose of ice. Great view at sunset.

Great place for its location and a lanai on the Waikiki harbor. 3 minute walk to Waikiki Beach/Hilton Hawaiian Village. There is a bar on the first floor below the units. Fancy restaurant/bar on the third floor. Clean and comfortable. "Free wifi" (it's included in the total cost). Friendly really cool manager! Only issue was the air conditioner did not work that well.

We had an amazing time. The location of the condo was perfect. We were only steps from the beach and lagoon. We enjoyed watching the boats in the marina and seeing the barracuda that called the marina home. I recommend you pay the extra for parking and rent a car. The room was perfect for two people and the kitchen was well equipped. The only negative thing we can say is that the air conditioner struggled in the evenings, but not enough to change our opinion about thr place. "
