Serenity and Beauty
We stayed three nights. The condo was better than advertised. The screened in porch with gorgeous glass patterned table and chairs and view of trees, grass, birds was so peaceful and pleasant. We at all our meals out there and enjoyed the evenings even the gentle rain... The furniture was so comfortable and the kitchen pots and pans of high quality with all the kitchen accessories blender, vitamix, toaster, microwave excellent stovetop and on and on. The bedroom was full of light and airy and awakening to bird songs was part of the feeling of being in paradise. First floor access made life easy and the gorgeous blue tiled pool was only steps away where we enjoyed late afternoon to early evening swims with comforting warm water. Kiley was extremely pleasant, accessible and helpful. We are so grateful to the owners whose love and care of their little bit of paradise was obvious whatever direction you turned in this very pleasant dwelling. Thank you . Thank you.

Beautiful location, nice Condo.
Everything was very nice. The condo had all the amenities you could need from a fully stocked kitchen to towels and linens. They even had snorkels and goggles for the pool or ocean along with chairs and a cooler for snacks and drinks. Condo could use some updating, but it worked great for a us.

First time staying in the north shore. The location is walkable to the Turtle Bay Resort, for restaurants and bars and short drives to food trucks, beaches and grocery stores. The property has everything you need. Snorkeling and beach gear too! Would definitely stay again!

Such a great stay!
This condo was the perfect place to stay on Oahu! The walking trails, restaurants, and beach at Turtle Bay were all within walking distance and the community was very quiet and peaceful. We also enjoyed how close we were to the restaurants and sightseeing locations on the North Shore. The host was amazing and super quick to answer any questions we had! Would stay here again for sure!

Nice condo!
This is a nice condo in a peaceful setting. The screened in lanai has a nice view of the pretty golf course. The queen bed is very comfortable and the condo is clean. The floor tiles in the entry and living room will need to be replaced in the near future due to many cracks because they aren’t level anymore. We did enjoy our stay here!

Ok stay
The North Shore of Oahu is pretty remote and I was happy to be associated with the Turtle Bay Resort. Unfortunately we weren’t. The description of the condo location was misleading. It was adjacent to the resort which allowed some activities such as hiking trails but you are not part of resort. We had rain, cloud cover and cool weather for 4.5 of our 7 days so we spent a lot of time in the condo. It was comfortable but kind of run down. Rust and open spots in walls.

Do not stay on bottom level
For 6 days, the family above us were playing ball, stomping around from morning until night, the noise was very excruciating, did not get any relaxing time unless we left the condo. Property was great but must not let families stay on second floor, very very noisy to the renters below!

Great location and lots of extras!
We had so much fun staying in this condo at Turtle Bay! Loved the fact that it is a first floor unit and very private, even though the pool is right around the corner. There are 4 beach chairs, 2 beach umbrellas and 2 snorkel sets that are included that came in very handy and saved us a lot of $$. We rented bikes and got to ride the golf course trails in the evening and in the morning....so much fun!

Nice affordable vacation option
The condo is located in a complex with at least two other “neighborhoods” and each neighborhood has about 60 units, a pool and bbq area. This condo is located closest to the entrance of turtle bay but also the furthest from the beach. You can walk to the beach, it takes about 10-15 minutes but there are sidewalks. The condo itself has everything needed - beach chairs, beach towels, bug spray and sunscreen as well as laundry detergent and all of the pots / pans needed. As other reviewers mentioned, the unit is outdated - paint peeling in the bathroom, floor tiles slightly uneven, screen doors don’t close all the way etc. There is a tv in the bedroom but it only plays dvds so we never used it. The pool area is nice, it’s not heated, but there are plenty of chairs and tables around it. We didn’t use the bbq since we didn’t want to buy coals for the grill. Turtle bay is about 10 minutes from a grocery store and plenty of food trucks. There is also a restaurant in turtle bay that currently does take out only. Overall, we were satisfied with our stay and thankful for the beach items that were provided.

A good place to stay
We enjoyed this well-stocked condo and the amenities available in the area. Having access to the pool nearby was great. The beach, golf courses and Turtle Bay Resort are all nearby, within walking distance. Walk to the resort or take the short drive to Kahuku or Laie for restaurants. Kiley was an excellent host with prompt responses to our messages and friendly service.

We very much enjoyed our stay at the condo. It was very clean and very well-equipped. The kitchen was stocked with anything we needed to cook a full meal. There were also beach chairs, snorkel gear, towels and more. The layout is convenient and the bed was comfortable. We didn't need the air conditioning, but there were two of them. The lanai was a very pretty, peaceful and quiet place to sit and watch some beautiful birds. We rarely saw another person. The beach nearby is spectacular and we saw many whales. Turtle Bay Resort is also close by with beautiful views and great restaurants. Food trucks and shopping are nearby. We would definitely like to stay here again.

We loved the location of this condo. Within walking distance to beautiful paths and beaches all over Turtle Bay. The condo had everything we needed to enjoy the North Shore beaches; snorkeling gear, beach chairs, beach towels, and sunblock. It was very quiet and peaceful at night. I love that this place gets you away from the crowds.

Great place!
My husband and I spent the first part of our trip here and we had a great time! Shopping at North Shore was a short drive, there’s lots of beaches around here to see and the condo was clean and nice. It’s a gated community and it’s pretty quiet most of the time; the pool area can be used for parties and although they can’t reserve the pool to use privately they can reserve the barbecue at the pool and almost every night it was hard to use that area because someone was having a party. So just keep that in mind if you’re expecting relaxing pool time! The lanai is beautiful and peaceful. There’s a reserved parking space and it was easy to find. Definitely would stay here again!

Chefs Kitchen
This unit was slightly dated in some areas but from conversations with Kiley it sounds like there’s plans to update soon. The kitchen was stocked to the max. The only complaint I’d have was there’s only 4 coffee mugs and the refrigerator, although it works great, is extremely rusty (just an eye sore in such a nice kitchen). We like staying in the Turtle Bay Area and this unit is a close walk to this beach. There’s chairs, umbrella, cooler, beach towels and more for you to use which was a nice added bonus. Kiley was quick to respond to all questions and I’d rent from here again.

Ideal location
This condo at Turtle Bay was perfect for us. The air conditioning works great. We turned it off during the day while we were gone and it cooled before bedtime. The kitchen is very well stocked. The swimming pool is very close. The beach is nice as well as the Turtle Bay Resort for dining or drinks. The pictures on VRBO don’t do the condo justice. Its better in person. Hope to stay here again one day.

This was our 1st trip to the north shore area and this condo was perfect for it. On the golf course, 2 doors down from the pool and a quiet beach a short walk away that you can catch the sunrise and sunset from. Crowded beaches, hiking trails, the PCC and groceries are fairly close. The condo is well appointed and Kiley was quick to reply to my questions. Thanks Kiley!

This place was perfect for my wife and I! We prefer to spend most of our time on the north shore of Oahu and the location is right in the middle of anything you'd want to do there. It's also in a very quiet area for the times we just wanted to relax after a day at the beach. It was clean and has everything you need for cooking at home. The beach stuff was great to have as well. We would definitely visit again!

Great Rental Property, poor WiFi
Great Property to stay at. Loved the access to all the beach equipment. The condo was very clean and comfortable. My only complaint would be the WiFi. While you are in the main kitchen and living area (which is where the router it) it works fine, but when you are in the bedroom the router lacked to strength to provide a good signal through all the walls. It’s a small complaint, but It was a slight inconvenience to not get adequate internet signal In the bedroom. Overall we had a nice stay at the property, and would return here if it was available on our next trip to Hawaii.

Good location but needs some TLC
The condo was nice, the kitchen was updated nicely but the bathroom especially could use updating. The driving directions once you reach the Turtle Bay property were not correct and didn’t tell you to make the first right into the East property. The gate code didn’t work so we sat at the gate trying all sorts of combinations until finally the security guard came and let us in. We ran into the neighbor who was unfriendly and we felt like we had to tiptoe around because of all the signs to not disturb the neighbor. The iron is broken, luckily there was a steamer, and the washer didn’t seem to work right. The hot water in the shower did go in and out if you used the kitchen sink at the same time (as someone else mentioned). We also tried contacting the owners when we were stuck at the gate and left messages with no return call. Overall it was ok, the location was close to where we needed to be, dinner at Roy’s was great.

Well stocked, but zero communication
We found the place very well kitted out with everything you might need in the kitchen, as well as the watersport gear. Be aware that it’s about as far as you can get from the ocean within the complex, prepare to drive to the beach. However we had some issues and were completely unable to contact the owner, either by message, phone, or vrbo ticket. We still haven’t heard a thing.
