This is a pretty standard condo with some nice features and some that did not work as expected. Beginning with obtaining and dropping off the key fob, it requires a 10-15 min drive (depending on traffic) to retrieve and to return, even though presumably the cleaners could return it. Not a huge issue but a bit annoying. Our main issue was the A/C. When we entered the condo, it was extremely warm and it took a long time to cool down. The A/C is actually a single unit on the floor in the bedroom that does not really cool down the living area, and the unit is extremely noisy for those in the room. That was definitely a negative for us. You can open the sliding doors to get a cross breeze but we were here in the summer and it was generally a warm breeze. The lanais were nice, location was fine with the caveat that the only available food in the immediate area is at the hotel, which is extremely nice but expensive, otherwise a bit of a drive, again not the end of the world but something to know. The pool is very nice and overall the condo was fine but from our perspective, just fine.

My 8 year old son and I had the absolute best week staying in your condo. The location couldn’t be any better for families who want a vacation out of the noise and craziness of Waikiki. The beaches, energy & vibe of the North Shore far outweigh South Side. All of the amenities here were a 5 Star - the mattress was EXTRA comfortable, pillows were like Heaven, towels, kitchen utensils, bathroom, etc were all top notch. You can tell the owners take pride in what they supply for their guests. Mahalo for your home.

This was our third stay in the condos and this one stood out as the best by a long way. After finding the short cut it's a ten minute walk to the beach. The property was very clean and furnished to a high standard. The amount of kitchen equipment was outstanding. Everything you could ever need was in those drawers . There's beach equipment and towels so you don't have to buy anything while you are there. The walking trails at turtle bay are wonderful. One down to kahuku point and the other way to kawela bay. Think they are further than the signpost says but easy walks with beautiful scenery. There is a lot of bugs up at turtle bay but in this condo it wasn't a problem. A very good rental.

This condo, at Turtle Bay, is located in a lovely, quiet area on the North Shore of Oahu. The condo was clean and well equipped with everything we needed for our four night stay. We loved the back lanai that overlooked the Turtle Bay golf course. We particularly enjoyed the gentle sea breeze that blew through the condo. The front, fenced in, porch area provided a lovely outdoor eating area. The king master bed was very comfy. Unfortunately, when it came to sitting, neither the couch nor the accent chair in the living room matched the comfort of the bedroom. As it was, we had a relaxing stay that made for a great start to an awesome anniversary trip.

The condo was clean and in a great location. It was stocked with snorkels and beach gear, and a good amount of kitchen amenities and condiments. Heed the email instructions for checking in and picking up the fob, they differ from the app check-in instructions.

This was the perfect little beach house nestled in Turtle Bays north shore. Very clean and all the amenities one could ask for in a home base just minutes from the beach.

Location is way to far if you want to go to Waikiki or to shop. The condo is small except the Master bedroom. This condo needs to be renovated its old and has a musty smell. Only 3 bath towels were available which is not enough if you have a party of 4. The grounds are nice and turtle beach was excellent. For the money I’m sure there’s nicer condos available. They do have pickle ball paddles which is a plus.

The condo is in a perfect location on the North Shore! It is close to all the main attractions in either direction as well as to a grocery store and tons of food trucks. It was equipped with everything we needed and was clean. We walked 4 minutes to Turtle Bay resort to go to the beach, watch the sunset, and have drinks and dinner. The pool is clean and well kept. It was perfect for the two of us and we would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others. :)

Stayed for 14 days at this property it was very clean and amenities were good. The walking tracks and proximity to the beach and swimming pool was a real bonus. The grounds were well maintained and the area was quiet. The check in and check out was easy. Have stayed in a number of properties over the years but found this one the best yet. Flow through ventilation was excellent.

It’s a perfect little getaway for a couple. The beautiful pool is just steps away. There are lots of options for food close by. Very comfortable bed, beautiful lanai, and the AC is a huge plus. We loved our stay!

Lovely, quiet, tranquil place to hang 20 with your partner. Clean and comfortable condo with all the essentials one could need. Pool and walking paths were perfect to help soak in that aloha of the North Shore while it lasted. 🤙😊

Wonderful property in the perfect location. Communication was fast and responsive. Location is away from the main tourist areas and very relaxing. Short walk to the beach and there were maybe 10 other people at the busiest.

Beautiful, well stocked condo. Close to turtle bay for conference, overlooking golf course. A little loud some mornings prohibiting sleeping in (eg mowing of golf course on friday). Very comfy bug bed! Has chairs, boogie boards, snorkle equipment, and noodles for the beach, small pool with lots of lounge chairs right around the corner. Chiminea in pa/is picture is no longer available. Lovely stay!

I’ve stayed in many different units at Turtle Bay and this was easily my favorite. A little smaller than some others but it has a great layout, clean and updated, large comfy bed, and a nice patio out front. Will stay here again. Aloha.

We absolutely loved our stay here! They had beach supplies for the family (chairs, towels, boogie boards, snorkeling...)
We enjoyed the lanai front and back- we had everything we needed in the kitchen, and right off the golf course! We had a very simple check-in and check-out process, the property was in excellent condition for our stay. I give this property and owner 5 stars!!! Thanks for letting us enjoy a slice of paradise! (and Haupia pie from Ted's!)

We enjoyed our stay at this condo near Turtle Bay. The condo was clean, spacious, and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. It was convenient to everything we wanted to do on the island and was a quick hour drive to the airport.
The condo was decorated very nicely and the bed was super comfy. The kitchen had everything we needed although we didn’t cook a meal.
The only negatives were that we had to get and return gate fob from property manager a few miles away and there was a surfing competition going on and the narrow road we had to drive on was one lane and cars were coming down the opposite direction and there were cars parked on the side of the road and we kept having to pull over to let vehicles through. It was very inconvenient. The other negatives were that we had difficulty using the spectrum cable on the living room and it was very frustrating. There needs to be written directions for the TV. The last negative was the ac unit was in bedroom so to cool the living room it made the bedroom freezing.
Other than those things we had a very enjoyable stay in the condo. It was clean, we felt safe, and we had a convenient parking space close by. The condo also had a washer and dryer which I loved and there was also a large TV in bedroom. The bathroom was very spacious as well. We had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay and would definitely stay here again. There were also amenities that we could have used had we chosen to, plus there were restaurants available very near at Turtle Bay Restrt but we only went there once. We went to the nearby north shore towns frequently and traveled to many activities in the vacinity.

Wow! Such a gorgeous home in a pristine area with all the amenities you could need when travelling!
The location was perfect, the home was clean and so welcoming, and we absolutely loved the front and rear lanai. The well stocked kitchen was so appreciated (cutlery, glasses, pans, Tupperware, etc.) as was the dishwasher and the washer/dryer.
This gem is located in the perfect area, close to everything but still far away to have some quiet and privacy.
Make sure you take advantage of all the food trucks that are a short 10 minute drive away. They’re phenomenal! Also make sure you check out the front lanai as it’s well stocked with beach gear for you and your family to have a wonderful time. Our toddler was so appreciative of the beach toys and the added beach towels was such a nice touch.
Would 1000000% recommend!

This condo is far above average for the North Shore - in cleanliness, aesthetic and in all the added thoughtful details! There were all the pots and pans we’d need - surprisingly clean for a rental condo, too! Super cute inside - pineapples are the theme. :) They supply a boogie board, cooler (which explains why there are a lot of ice cube trays in the freezer :) , snorkel gear, etc. Very peaceful location. The birds were comically loud in morning and at dusk, but neighbors were all very calm and quiet. Lovely view from the bedroom of the serene golf course. 10 minute walk to the Turtle Bay beaches that are public. It wasn’t till the last day that I figured out there’s the surfer/ beach access point if you go down the resort signs that point to “loading dock.” Was fun walking about the resort grounds, too. :) It’s super expensive to eat there, but live music in the evenings at “Over the Edge” lounge or some name like that. Love, love, love!

We booked this condo based on the many great reviews and it didn’t disappoint. We stayed here the week prior to our sons wedding at Turtle Bay and had a wonderful time. Other family members stayed in other condos that were not nearly as nice as ours. We made good use of the patio and lanai. The condo was very clean and exceeded our expectations. The golf course out back was not in use so we could easily cut through over to the beach. We always love when a place we rent works out so well. You can’t go wrong with this rental.

This place was perfect! We were close to grocery, food stands, hikes and beaches. There are also a few bars, restaurants, and beaches close enough to walk to by the resort. The place was spacious, they had some beach items for us to use, and the space was cool and cozy. We’ll definitely be looking to stay here again next time we visit family. Highly recommend!

We had a good experience… thank you for the beach chairs, umbrella, towels…
The a/c in the bedroom was a blessing, as the rest of the condo was rather hot even with the doors open and fans. When we walked in the door upon arrival, the heat was very uncomfortable. One negative was the very, very loud construction in the condo next door. As we were preparing for our son’s wedding, it felt like an earthquake and airport landing zone. I called the resort management and they were very apologetic and assured us that there would be no more noise until today, Friday.
Overall, the condo met our needs and the bed was comfortable. I enjoyed sitting on the patio outside of the bedroom.

We enjoyed our stay here for the most part! We stayed here for a wedding and the majority of our group stayed at the resort, so it was very convenient to be able to walk from this Vrbo up to the resort (7 min walk). The unit itself was decent. There wasn’t any shampoo, conditioner, body wash (there was a bar of soap), or sunscreen so we bought supplies ourselves. The washer and dryer are incredibly loud and the dryer vibrates so much the painting on the side of the wall fell down when we were washing the towels. The wall AC unit in the bedroom is also very loud, if that’s something that bothers you. The toilet was leaking from day one and we were too busy on this trip to notify the owner right away but let them know the night before we checked out that we put a towel around the toilet as a short term solution. It’s a good place to stay if you’re spending your time outside of the unit and are only booking this to store your luggage, sleep, and shower in. Picking up the keys was easy enough since it was on the way to the Vrbo from the airport but would’ve loved for the gate key to just be in the Vrbo itself and would’ve liked to be given the door keypad number instead so that we didn’t have to make our group make a pit stop. The communication could’ve been better since it felt nonexistent once we were actually in the unit.

We attended our brother's BYU Hawaii graduation and spent the rest of the trip within 25 minutes of either direction of this VRBO. It was a perfect location and the quality was excellent. Pickup was seamless, 8 minutes west of the property, and the amenities were abundant as well. The rental supplied a boogie board, two beach chairs, a beach umbrella, snorkel gear and beach toys for kids. Opening up both patio doors brought the most magnificent breeze, and we enjoyed it every morning and throughout the day when we were there.
Checkout Kahuku Farms while you visit and get the lilikoi joy smoothie if they have it, as well as everything else on the menu!
We want to come back!

Location of property to everything on the North Shore was ideal. Loved being able to choose from multiple beaches in close proximity and having the luxury of eating at the Turtle Bay Restaurants. Nice breeze would come in to unit if we had front and back screened in doors open.

Very nice one bedroom that is well appointed and clean. The hosts were easy to contact and very responsive. The host supplied extra kitchen coffee filters, and spices, very nice. The only negative is picking up and dropping off the gate fob at their private residence which is offsite, 7 minutes away.

The few things to complain about: the Myna birds early in the morning are so loud and maintenance on the golf courses in the early morning, both of which we have no control over. We enjoy sleeping in. Other than that I can’t think of any major cons to this place. It had everything we needed to live comfortably for two weeks. Laundry was a great amenity. The location to the best snorkeling and surfing are just minutes away and the old town of Haleiwa is not too far for gift shopping and dining out. We would definitely stay here again.

Loved having chairs, boogie board, etc to borrow. And it was so nice to cook ourselves up some simple meals while on vacation. The bedroom had an AC unit so it stayed nice and cool in there for sleeping.

We are SO pleased we chose this lovely home for our stay. We attended a wedding at Turtle Bay Resort and wanted our own place to be able to cook and hang, etc. This place was exactly what we were looking for. We felt like we were staying in the "Pineapple Suite" (if you know what I'm referring to! ;) Everything is well appointed, well decorated, and just an overall great vibe. The front patio was lovely for morning breakfasts and the back sunroom patio is perfect to catch the breeze. We are so grateful to have stayed here, it is so central to everything on the North Shore. If we over come back, we will definitely stay here again.

This is wonderfully located, in perfect position to enjoy the eastern breezes. We didn’t use the AC even once, despite staying in August. I’ve stayed often at various Turtle Bay condos, and this is the first place with such a wonderful breeze. The check-in process isn’t as convenient as some. We had to go to another location to retrieve the keys, and the pick up location is on a (very) narrow lane parallel to Kamehameha Hwy. The condo itself is nicely appointed. It has a closed-in front lanai, with a sunshade that helped to block some of the setting sun’s rays. The kitchen had a good selection of pots and pans, along with both a Keurig and a “regular” coffee pot. The bed is VERY firm. The single bathroom has a step in tub. There is a pretty dressing area fronting the bathroom itself, with a high counter and a multi-outlet which we used to charge our electronics. It was clean and quiet, perfect for our staycation. We especially enjoyed the view and scenery from screened-in back lanai. There is a small stream (water feature for the golf course) and lots of trees. It felt so private. Really lovely location.

This condo is in a perfect location. Close to the resort with the opportunity to enjoy all of those amenities, while also being a little separated from the hustle and bustle.
It was a great sized unit for the two of us.
The kitchen had everything we needed.
All in all, a great place to stay. If life brought us back to the north shore, we would stay here again.

Property is 100% perfect and as shown in the pictures. Location on TB in North shore couldn’t be better. Quiet, country, and away from the craziness of townside.
Perfect property to stay in while I’m home for a visit. Hope to return soon.
