Reviewer Comments:
Our small unit was lovely and the property is beautiful. We were very disappointed with how we were treated by the Turtle Bay resort personell. At every chance, they told us they couldn't help us because we were staying in the Villas. OVV appropriately communicated limitations on TB pool access and towel service, but we didn't realize how much we were missing out on by not staying in a hotel owned property. Yes, we could pay extra for amenities, but the prices were ridiculously different. For ex, staying in a hotel owned condo would have cost $40 per unit per day to participate in ALL classes, activities, etc. compared to what we had to pay which is $50 per person per activity (hula dancing, intro to serve, exercise class, hula dancing etc.) We were even "scolded" (by Lee in TB customer service) for being at the pool bar at night when we called to report a missing ID (all communication said that was OK). This was not the fault of OVV, but obviously there is some bad feelings between non-hotel owned condos and the hotel which made our stay less than ideal. It would be better if we had not expected any collaboration with TB resort. We do not recommend staying in a non-TB owned unit.

Beautiful property right on the beach with the some amenities of Turtle Bay resort. Was kind of disappointed could use the pool at the resort but the pool at the Villas was nice as well but a lot of kids. Room was super clean and bed was comfortable. Had a great stay.

The Oceanfront Villa was a perfect stay for us. The beachfront, pool, and property restaurants were all enjoyable. We used the barbeque for a couple of our meals; kitchen setup was outfitted better than most rentals. Took advantage of the resort horseback riding. Great place to get away for some rest and relaxation. We would go there again.

Property was great and as pictured. Very comfortable with all the amenities we needed including parking and laundry. Short drive to restaurants, beaches and shopping on the North Shore. Enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend.

Beautiful view and location. Beach access right in front and you can go to turtle bay restaurants for food and drinks. Would definitely stay again. Some trails close by if you want to stay on property. It was a great stay! We were considering other rentals that are down the road from here and we are so happy that we picked here

We had a very relaxing week at this property. Everything was comfortable. The balcony had a table and chairs where we ate most of our meals and a lounge that was comfortable enough for hours of reading. I took advantage of the snorkeling gear in the beach locker and snorkeled every day in the lagoon that you see from the balcony. I would definitely recommend this rental and would go back myself.

Villa 305 was a perfect spot for our very short vacation to Oahu. We turned off the A/C and opened the slider the entire time. The sweet lullaby of gentle waves and fresh ocean air was transforming, exactly what we were there for. The location to the beach was perfect and we enjoyed the convenience of the resort next door for dinner and drinks. The unit was very clean and the bed and pillows were very comfortable. The views are all one could hope for in Hawaii.

Our stay at Kawela Bay was fantastic! The villa was perfectly laid out and completely equipped. The balcony had an amazing view of the bay. It was barely a walk to the bay which had great swimming, beautiful views of the surf breaking and even a few sea turtles! The Turtle Bay resort had a number of restaurants and each of them were delicious. We are looking forward to booking this villa again next year for another great, relaxing getaway vacation.

We loved our villa up on the third floor. The height gave us spectacular views of the many blue, turquoise, and foamy white ocean waves. We loved the kitchenette! That was a great bonus. Plenty of room in the bathroom. Plenty of supplies for both indoor and outdoor use. Loved our peaceful walks, relaxing along the shore, and especially enjoyed watching a monk seal make her way ashore to rest nearby a couple times. Beautiful sunsets and moon rises. Wonderful restaurants and food trucks. Everything at the villas was so clean and well tended. We enjoyed the PCC nearby, and traversed the North Shore from Haleiwa to Kualoa. We’ll be back, to be sure. Thank you for a happy, peaceful, refreshing 20 days of bliss! Aloha always, the Glenn’s

Everything you need is right at this resort. The little bay is about one hundred yards from the condos. It’s perfect for everyone! We had our daughter and 2year old grandchild visit while we were there. We swam in the morning and had lunch at Roy’s which is right next door. We took an easy walk past the stablles, out to the pull box. The amenities were perfect. There is a handy washer and dryer. Even a blender for smoothies. Will definitely come back again!

After flying in to Honolulu and staying at Waikiki for a couple days we just wanted a more lush tropical experience. After finding this Villa on VRBO and driving over we were so impressed. Everything was so beautiful, lush, and pleasant. I would definitely recommend coming to stay here at Turtle Bay and staying in this Villa.

We had a marvelous time!! The view was spectacular and made it hard to leave the villa, even for the day! The villa was clean and comfortable. The only thing I missed was a dishwasher!! It was quiet, and there was only one night that cigarette smoke filled our balcony. The security responded quickly, but the person had already gone inside. We loved our stay!!

As other reviewers indicated this villa is much nicer then the pictures. We were most comfortable, and the property was fully stocked, one did not want for anything. My only tiny complaint is we couldn't turn on the under lighting under the kitchen cabinets and when I emailed Mark I didn't get a reply, that said we would absolutely stay here again.

Very quiet place. Perfect ocean view. Nice bay for swimming and snorkeling. Good kitchen with all you need. Sharp knifes what is very seldom. A very nice bed. Big balcony. The only thing we was wondering is that there was no dishwasher. But this was not listed in the description. Any other thing was there. If we travel to Oahu we will came again .

The condo is located conveniently to the North Shore and the Turtle Bayresort. The condo was well equipped overall but the technology and furniture needs an update. The manager was communicative and helped when we had a few issues. We have stayed here before and will again.

Beautiful view of the breaking waves. Room had everything we needed. Was clean and loved the washer /dryer. Kitchen had everything we needed to make our own meals when not dining out. Locker was full of everything needed to walk down to beach. Chairs , cooler , scuba gear and umbrellas. Out of ten this rental was a 10.

This was our third time at the villas, and first time staying in the studio. The size was just right and they had all extras we needed to enjoy the week on the island. We had a few questions before we arrived, and the hosts were great answering all of our questions. Definitely recommend

Our stay in Studio Villa 305 was our first vacation away since Covid struck in 2019. We stayed during the first week of June ‘22. We enjoyed every moment at the Villa! From sunrise to sunset was everything that we needed. This is a very serene and well cared for environment. Every day started and ended with time spent enjoying the beautiful sites and sounds from the lanai. The studio had everything that we needed and was very comfortable. The staff are all very kind. There are a few minor things I think could be upgraded as the Villas are premium accommodations. Mostly the bathroom amenities, especially the toilet paper. What is provided is the cheapest one ply that can be purchased in bulk. It’s what we would refer to as sand paper. For the price paid to stay here, seems like a decent two ply toilet paper could be provided. Like I said though, minor issue. The biggest disappointment is that we will not be able to return in the winter when the price more than doubles! Ouch! When we called to inquire about availability we were shocked to learn that even as returning guests we would be charged such a high price in December from June. I understand a price increase during peak season, but over double is extreme. This forces us to go elsewhere. Such a bummer. Kudos to the folks who can afford $1600+ a night for a studio!
