If you want a nice place to base your North shore expeditions, Turtle bay is a great place. If you want to hob nob with the folks at the club, it available. This was a fun place, quite and very comfortable. Our Condo was 1/2 mile from the resort and beach. This place is accessible via Honolulu Bus system. The bus will drop you off within 200 or so yards of the complex. So you can ride from Honolulu for a few dollars.
Our stay at w13 in Turtle Bay fully lived up to our expectations. We accommodation was well furnished, clean and comfortable in an excellent location. It was very useful having access to the hotel's restaurants within walking distance. We would recommend this property to anyone looking for a holiday on the north shore.
Adoramos, Excelente apartamento. Recomendo
We have gotten good sleep and good waves. We hope to get dark at bedroom in morning.
The location was really nice that we could see a beautiful golf course and the lanai was comfortable to spend long time in there. The interior was renovated modernly, nice and bright color. We like this property so much that we will choose it again for the next time.
Super clean and all the amenities- great location. Made friends with the nice, huge cockroach in the bathroom ;)
Our villa was nice. We had air conditioning in the main bedroom and the house was clean. The main room is hot if you're hanging around the house but other than that, it was a great place to stay and I will definitely book with Turtle Bay Estates again.
I agree that the bedroom curtains are to thin. Blackout lining would have helped. The lanai was wonderful.
I got married at Turtle Bay Resort and had over 60 guests at my wedding. Most of the guests stayed in this Estate but I will say of all the condos I visited, this had the best interior. This is a well maintained,contemporary furnished condo. I loved it so much. I recommend this condo to anyone trying to rent a place in this Estate. You have nothing to improve on as far as I'm concerned..this #13 condo is fantastic.
We traveled for 10 days to Hawaii with the first 6 days in Waikiki. Our last few days were at The Estates at Turtle Bay, and we were very happy with our decision. It was my wife, our 1 y.o. son and myself. The location was easy for in and outs to the beaches, pools, and golf. The unit was extremely clean, and very functional! The kitchen was perfect for cooking light meals for our son, and ourselves. The Lani furniture was so comfortable that we spent most of our time out there. The indoor couch was not so comfortable, but we didnt spent much time inside except for watching cartoons with our son. The TV and CD player are very nice along with the large fans in the main room. The only complaint we have is the bed smeeled like sweat from the individual before us. We cleaned the mattress cover which helped. Anyway, we would definately stay here again! Here are a few recommendations: Golf the Plamer course, eat at Kahuku Grill for great burgers, and enjoy the Acai bowl at the smoothie shop across from Foodland.
This is the second time we have stayed in this condo. It has been recently remodeled and is very comfortable. It backs to the area of the golf office and restaurant, on weekends can be a little noisy. That is balanced with this condo being an easy walking distance to Turtle Bay Resort and the public beach. Our only real issue would be that the drapes in the bedroom and living area do not block out the light and allow persons to see what is going on in those areas. Some other form of window drapery needs to be put in place We have been pleased enough with this condo to comeback. The area (North shore) is unbelievably lovely and at times on some beaches you are all alone. We have seen the large turtles several times, we would recommend this condo and the Estates of Turtle Bay's 3 star properties.
The condo met all my needs and allowed me to enjoy my short visit to paradise. As always, the staff and Mgmt were extremely helpful and professional. I've stayed with this compnay on all my trips to Hawaii and have never been disappointed. If there is a problem, it's always taken care of ASAP.
We love staying in the condos. Best of both worlds. Beautiful ocean views and great food at Lei Lei's.
I would try the condos again, but a different one. Air conditioning was not very good. At check in I was given a slip of paper saying if the air conditioning was left on during the day a staff member would come in and turn it off. I was also give a note that said they were going to exterminate and we would need to be gone that day for 3-4 hrs after it had been done. I called the office and said I had not been made aware of it and we had planned on spending that day at the beach and the room, they did not know what time he would be coming, morning or afternoon. I was told it was for legal reasons they had to put that 3-4 hour time in but that everything was fine and we did not have to vacate the room. After expressing my concerns and that I was not comfortable withe the situation they agreed to not have the exterminator come. The check out instruction said we were to take our garbage to the dumpsters in the parking lot, this unit however did not have any garbage bags I could find. It is a nice area and each condo is different, I would try again just a different condo unit.
Clean, nice looking unit. Kitchen Counter outlet wasn't working even after maintenance came in to repair it. Also in the hot weather it would have been nice to have AC in living room although opening up all the doors and windows gave a pretty good breeze when a breeze was available. The sofa/bed was very comfortable.
The unit had apparently been recently remodeled and was in pristine condition. The golf course view was not quite as dramatic as an ocean view, but quite pleasant nonetheless. The property is close to many very nice beaches, as well as the excellent Audubon Center, good restaurants and shopping. Parking is a few feet from the unit for easy packing/unpacking. Reasonably priced by Hawai'i standards.
