““In 2015, I purchased my unit at the Ilikai and joined the rental program. It is very convenient and helpful to have Hotel Management Services file GET/TAT taxes for me. Any deficiencies in my unit are found immediately and repaired, so even when we are far from Hawaii, we can leave it to the rental program team to handle. When we stay in our unit, it is convenient because there is a front desk team we can call anytime for prompt service, especially when my family or friends are staying at the hotel. The owner services manager helps us with various matters, such as reservations, maintenance, tax filing, and any questions we have about our statements. I have never thought of changing to another management company. Hotel Management Services maintains my unit very well.”

I am proud to own my unit at the Ilikai; it is exciting that the hotel appears in the opening of the TV drama “Hawaii Five-O” Management Services rental program is easy to understand. makes me comfortable every time I visit.”

“I have owned two units at the Ilikai since 2015. I fully delegate the management of my units to Hotel Management Services. They are a respected and reliable operator in Hawaii, and they provide appropriate guidance and suggestions for me as an owner. I value that they have Japanese-speaking Owner Relations associates, making it easy for me to communicate with the team. I recommend their services.

As your partner our goal is to ensure that your investment is a success that works for you while you are away and can be enjoyed when you are on Oahu.
