We had everything we needed and more for our stay on the North Shore. The location was the best part- a short walk from Turtle Bay and Kuilima Cove (great snorkeling) and a short drive from Shark’s cove, a grocery store, and lots of places to eat.

We loved the location close to the Ritz Carlton Turtle Bay, golf, horseback riding, and the beach. It was nice to not have to drive too far. Easy drive to the grocery store and we even went to a movie while we were here.

Great location, beautiful walk across the golf course to the beach and Turtle Bay Resort's cove/snorkeling, restaurants within walking distance, all appliances in good order, pull out bed much more comfortable than you'd expect, everything you need for the kitchen provided, quiet spot on the first floor, hose out back for cleaning off the sand, ample gear for the beach (chairs, snorkeling gear, fins, umbrella, etc.). We'll stay here again!

I had an amazing time spending new years at the condo with my childhood best friends. It was a very clean, lovely condo with a beautiful view of the golf course and close to the ocean.

The condo was an excellent place for our family of four, especially the teens needing their own little space. We’ve stayed in Turtle Bay on previous trips and always enjoy the location. The only thing I would recommend is a refreshing of the beach amenities, but overall we loved our stay and would definitely come back.

We loved the location on the north shore. Having access to a pool is nice when you’re tired of sand. Everything we needed was available. Thank you!

The grounds were beautiful and very peaceful. Our only suggestion is that the shower needs to be replaced. The floor isn’t solid.

We stayed at this unit for 3 nights and it was awesome! The place was extremely clean and had all the amenities. Walking distance to beach access, Ritz Carlton, and golf course clubhouse. The host Jordan was very responsive and thorough with check in and check out. I would highly recommend this place and personally can’t wait to book again!Thanks again Jordan!

We stayed three nights in this beautiful condo located on the Turtle Bay property (just a 10 minute easy walk to the Ritz Carlton). The condo is nicely furnished with comfortable beds and a fully stocked kitchen (one of the best we’ve ever stayed in). And they have all the beach stuff you need - umbrella, chairs, boogie boards, and towels. Jordan was easy to communicate with as well. Overall, a perfect end to our Oahu vacation. Highly recommended

We wanted to escape the busy area of Waikiki on our trip and decided to stay in the North Shore. We loved this location because it was in the middle of all the places we wanted to go to. Very close walk to Turtle Bay beach! Place was clean and had everything we needed. Would definitely book again:

Me and my girlfriend absolutely loved our stay. The place is walking distance from Turtle bay and near everything on the north shore. During the night was so calm and silent. Truly recommend the place.

Check in was easy. I always enjoy this area... We did hikes around the property & it was close to beaches & surfing for the kids. The unit was clean & peaceful especially on the balcony in the morning. It was nice to have a kitchen for Breakfasts in... Otherwise we were beachbound all thorough the day. Overall a great stay for myself & the family.

If you've ever wondered what it would be like to pay Four Seasons prices for a Super 8 Motel, look no further! Everything the bad past reviews said? Spot on. I’d relist them, but honestly, what is the point?In short, if you love overpaying for mediocrity and have a good sense of humor about throwing money away, this is your dream destination.

The location to Turtle bay is so close. It took us 8-10 minutes to walk to the resort. Excellent place to stay if you have an event at Turtle Bay Resort. Very quiet and beautiful location. The apartment is beautiful and very clean. We had everything we needed to make meals. The host replied immediately and friendly.

This is a very nice condo. My only regret is that we didn’t have more time to stay there. Hopefully we will go back again!

The unit was clean, well stocked and beach supplies were provided. The photos and listing do not accurately represent the space, it is dated with signs of wear and tear. The listing advertises air conditioning, but it was a portable unit in the bedroom and window unit in the main living space that was not capable of keeping a comfortable temperature. The property manager was responsive, and the Turtle Bay area is walkable with great local restaurants in the surrounding areas.

Stayed with my wife and infant son. Bedroom is big enough for portable cot. Parking right outside door. Safe grassy lanai space opens up to the golf course. Private. Perfectly fitted kitchen and washer/dryer. Checkin a breeze. Turtle Bay is a short walk up the golf course path. We know the area so enjoyed close proximity to Stables, pillbox hikes, beaches etc. Lei Lei’s clubhouse has decently priced food and beers/cocktails. The Kahuku food trucks and beer garden are best for close and high quality provisions — turtle bay restaurants and bars aren’t great. This is a great option to base yourself out of the north shore.

This home had so many great qualities and amenities. It was a perfect fit for our family of 4. It fell short in a few areas. Unfortunately, communication with the owner was very inconsistent. I reached out multiple times before hand to confirm my reservation and ask a few questions and finally got a response after multiple weeks. When I got the check in instructions only a few hours before we were arriving, I was very taken back about the comment of them not supplying enough toilet paper, paper towels, trash bags and laundry detergent for the length of our stay. I have never rented any property that would expect us to purchase all of those on our own after only supplying us with a few days worth. To me, these are basic supplies I would expect to have included, especially for the we paid. To my surprise, there were more than the “2 rolls” of toilet paper available, but I don't know if we just got lucky that the tenants before us left extra. It is just a simply gesture of accommodating your guest that you should provide. Unfortunately, there wasn’t any laundry detergent even though they said they would leave “supplies for 2 loads”. We had already been on the island for a few days and needed to do some laundry. When I reached out to see if it was in a spot that I didn’t see, the owner was surprised there wasn't some and said she would have someone bring some the next morning for me. Unfortunately, no one came and I didn't hear back from her during our entire 7 day stay.

We loved this place. Has many items like coffee and tea , laundry soap, shampoo etc. made it very convenient for us. We would definitely stay here again, great location, close to Waimea valley, bonsai pipeline, and Polynesian cultural center... All must sees on the north shore!

The downstairs bathtub was very slippery and frightening. A runner mat in the tub and a grab bar mounted to the wall wouldn’t cost much and would make showers much more pleasant. We could also use better bath towels and at least another set. The AC was also a problem. There is no AC in the upstairs bedroom. In order to make the upstairs comfortable we had to make the living room uncomfortably cold.

We stayed for a week during Christmas with family staying on other units at the same property. Our condo was the most updated of our group. The property manager communicated everything ahead of time, access was easy (except finding 3 different pool codes!), and parking was convenient. The only real complaint is the furniture. The mattress is VERY soft and likely should be replaced. Likewise, the loveseat/foldout in the living area is barely usable with the cushions being out of shape and the mattress being very thin. The side chair in the living room was not much better. We spent most of the time sitting on the wood dining chairs and patio chairs.

Great place to stay with plenty of room. Glad to bring the family here. Towels and kitchen were stocked well. Would've been nice if the kitchen had salt and pepper and there was more stock of toilet paper and paper towels. Overall still had a wonderful stay.

Condo is impeccable. Great north shore location to hit surfing beaches, the hiking trails, or partake of the Turtle Bay amenities. Hosts are helpful & lovely. Really loved this spot. Thank you

Family of 5 stayed over Christmas break, and the location is everything we hoped for. This side of the island has a slowed pace of life, complete opposite of the Honolulu city. Kewela Bay proved perfect for snorkeling with sea turtles. We didn't visit the same beach twice. Its about 10 minutes from Foodland (closest grocery store) and 15 minutes from the Polynesian Cultural Center, Kaula Ranch and so many great family activities.

We had a lovely time and enjoyed our stay on Turtle Bay. Leave the light on in the hallway at night to make the stairs easier to navigate in the dark.

The condo’s furnishings and bathrooms felt very outdated and in need of an upgrade/update. The grounds are beautiful and location is great.
