We loved everything about the condo. The listing was exactly as pictured and more. It felt like we were staying at our home away from home. Check-in/out was seamless and in our favorite locations.

We loved staying at turtle bay. The location was excellent! The condo was a good size and plenty of beds for our family!

This property is beautiful and well maintained. It is close to the beach and has several pools within the development. There are plenty of beaches within driving distance and it is close to Foodland, Farm stands, Food Trucks and a few towns. The only downside is there is only a window unit AC in the bedroom.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location! very clean, beautiful golf course view. This section of the golf course has been closed for a few years so we had a HUGE grassy backyard to walk on all the way to the ocean! Only one thing I wish it had was a full length mirror in the master bedroom to check out my new swimsuits, and to use to put makeup on when the bathroom was occupied, then more than one person could get ready at a time. Loved the snorkling equipment and other beach supplies!

Host is very organized and proactive with communication. The property is exactly as pictured, and you will find it to be a very romantic/pleasant stay. Bed was comfortable. I enjoyed sitting out in the lanai. Neighborhood is quiet, it is a gated community.

Fantastic condo, great location near the beach and resort facilities. Comfy beds and all mod cons to have a great stay up on North Shore, no hesitation in recommending.

Condo is well stocked and accommodated our 6 member family with no issues. Right on the fairway of a golf course. Easy walk to Turtle Bay beaches. You should know that if you plan on visiting Honolulu or some other areas further away, it’s an hours drive or more.

Communication was hard. There was zero details about how we would have to get into the property via a gate-just “if we had a hard time to call”. I clarified prior to the trip to see if there were beach towels and umbrellas. There was not enough towels and no umbrella. The property was clean. King bed was comfortable. But our kids were hot in the bunks. We had ants and ran out of paper towels to clean up messes. There were not any extra kitchen towels or anything to keep the kitchen tidy and ants out. Overall, I would say it was fine. But we for sure had lots of frustrations with communication and lack of items that were stated to be there. Which is a bummer.

The location of this unit in Turtle Bay was wonderful. The property manager was prompt and helpful with communication leading up to our stay. The unit was clean, but the interior of the property could definitely use some updating as much of it is simply aged.

Great location and great communication! While the apartment was overall very clean, we were not thrilled to find 4 really large dead cockroaches (2 in the bedroom and 2 in the living room) upon arrival. The bathroom sink was very small and, although there was a medicine cabinet, there really wasn't enough room in it. A few shelves or another medicine cabinet would be helpful.

Jordan was so responsive and welcoming! We loved our stay and the clean, perfectly catered vrbo stay. Her recommendations were great and the spot was exactly what our group was looking for on the North Shore. Would highly recommend staying here! Thank you Jordan!

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved this place! Decorated very well felt brand new. Your landscaping off the patio was stunning. There is one issue however and I am not complaining, just want to make you aware. There is a strong mildew smell that by the end of our stay had my allergies peaked and the plane ride home was miserable. I am a realtor and have a keen sense of smell and detect mildew pretty easily due my allergies , my clients are always grateful for my ability. I even gave your card to our friends who live in the area and loved it. Again, just wanted you to be aware. The property manager was not there when we checked in, we did find the security guy to be very helpful.

We had an awesome time!! Stayed Sunday through Friday, couldn’t fit in enough time to get to do everything we wanted to but was great what all we did!! Very nice location for the north shore!! Will say lots of driving back and forth over an hour if want to do things on other sides of the island, but was a bad drive. Very scenic drives everywhere we went. Sad to have to leave and already want to start planning on a time to come back!!!! The water was great and loved the showers off and on through the day. Perfect weather to relax and vacation in. We are from north Texas about an hour from Dallas and was perfect time to come to Hawai’i!!!

This is a great condo to use as a base to explore all the north shore has to offer. It is comfortable place to stay with all you need to enjoy your stay. There are great beaches very close to the condo. The only complaint I have is a lack of easily assessable plugs for charging tech items.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I have rented a vacation rental from this facility more than twice and this last unit was the best so far. This unit was clean, all the appliances worked very well, and management staff were very helpful when we had problems getting through the gate when the key code did not work. Will definitely rebook again in the future.

Had a nice time staying in North Shore. This rental was great. I would recommend it and would stay here again. Property management was responsive to our issues promptly.

We had the most amazing stay. This condo is central to so much on the North Shore of Oahu, minutes from a whole variety of beaches, restaurants and the towns of Laei and Haleiwa. Quiet little community. Loved walking to along the nearby trail to Kahuku and Kawela Bay/Banyan Tree. The condo was perfect for our family of five. We were very comfortable. It was clean, welcoming and bright. We highly recommend this place to anyone going to the North Shore. Geoff was a fabulous host.

This was the perfect location for our trip. It was away from the business of the city, a nice quiet community. The owner has paid attention to small details that make the stay even better! Would certainly recommend!

Really enjoyed our stay. Everything clean and well equipped especially the kitchen with cookware. Very happy with our experience. Thank you to the listing agent/host for providing great communication and a great product.

As a whole, our stay was amazing. There were a lot of extras in addition to the essentials. The condo was gorgeous and the extended property was beautiful also. We really appreciated the air conditioning and fans throughout the condo. There was ample room for 6 adults. Beds were well appointed. Proximity to everything on the north shore was fabulous. About 1/2 way through our stay I noticed the water would t get hot and thought it was just a fluke. But by the next day we realized there was no hot water at all. Cindy was communicating with me but nothing really worked so we just dealt with it. Not a huge set back but mildly uncomfortable. I believe she got a repair person scheduled as soon as she could. All in all, great place that I would definitely recommend.

We enjoyed our stay. The condo is well equipped and located in a great spot. The views from the lanai are really nice. The AC in the living room should be checked for efficiency. We travel to the North Shore a few times per year and would have no reservations in staying here again.

We had a great time and the condo was wonderful, it had all we needed and was very clean. Also great communication with Dorothy!!!! We would have loved to stay longer :(
Uli C.
October 2024

Perfect location, gated community, save and secure, near everything we needed. Condo well stocked and comfortable. Beautiful pool and also close to a number beaches. Loved having a separate bedroom and bathroom upstairs for our daughter. Cons…I wouldn’t consider it “luxury” and not really any “upgrades” that I could see. Air conditioner didn’t work. But it was a fair price for what we had.

Great property. Amazing
Ryan M.

We completely enjoyed our stay. The condo is in a.great location (short walk to beach and Ritz Carlton) and is fully equipped. They have everything you would expect plus more. Kitchen has most everything. There are extra linens, beach towels, beach chairs...even a couple boogie boards! There are also air conditioners in the bedroom and living room. If you need them, they can be a little loud. Ear plugs help. Hosts provide good communication aand are very responsive. I'll book again.

The property lived up to the VRBO description. This comfortable condo was well-stocked for cooking, beach-going and resting. We particularly appreciated the AC in every room and the full-size washer/dryer.
