Very nice, comfortable and peaceful.
This was an exceptional property and the condos were clean, roomy and above expectations. Having laundry facilities available was great and security staff were very helpful. We had 20 travellers and the condos catered extremely well for us. Very economical and lovely place to stay. Ka nui te pai.
There was a centipede in one of the #69 bedrooms, lower room. Maybe staff could check rooms before guest check-in. In #81 and #69 we were more than pleased with our stay and would recommend to others.
The condos are checked for the guest several hours before check-in time.
I turned in my review slip with comments
We were able to spend time with the grandkids swimming in the pool, collecting beach momentos for a craft, collecting golf balls and enjoying one another's company in a beautiful setting. We have come to Turtle Bay for years and will continue to do so. Mahalo!
We really enjoyed our stay on the North Shore. The property was very clean, in good working condition, and everything we were told it would be. I definitely recommend staying on the North Shore to get away from the bustle of Honolulu. The Estates are a very good value!
The condo. was the perfect size for our family of 5. It was clean and we loved having a washer & dryer. The last two days however, some bugs began to appear in the kitchen. We weren't sure what they were, but there was alot flying around. Again, they weren't there at the beginning, only the last couple of days.
We spend a quiet week at the condo after a week cruising through the islands. We enjoyed quiet nights playing dominoes and days enjoying the area attractions. With all of us living in other areas of the country this was a Vacation to remember.
Staying in 081 West was a pleasure! Great Location, clean and well equipped. The only item missing was pitcher to make juice.
This rental was a Long Weekend Stay-cation for us with our 2 adult children and their significant others to be close by the Polynesian Cultural Center to see the show Ha, Breath of Life and not have to drive home to Makakilo afterwards. The property is well kept and has a very relaxed, tropical Hawaiian feel to it – slow and Old School – a nice get-away from the town-side for us. The condo was a comfortable size for the 6 of us. The unit is in generally good condition for a 30+ year old condo. Kitchen cabinets' doors are rickety and have musty smell. The unit has a nice view of the golf course and there’s a lot of guest parking in the front. 1 of the 5 pools is right out front too. On the downside, from 12 - 6 p.m. the temperature of the living room and loft is unbearably hot. If you are going to be outside during those times, it may be OK for you. The 2 bedrooms' A/C units keep just those 2 rooms cool. This unit’s housekeepers did not clean it well before our arrival and the back lanai and outdoor furniture was filthy – it needs to be hosed down! The wired internet is extremely slow at 260kbps down. The Turtle Bay Hotel's Beach is a 2 minute drive or 15 minute walk away. Hotel Parking is free for Beach Access or if you get it validated at one of the Hotel's Restaurants or Bars. The Hotels’ Beach is very nice for swimming and sun bathing. The rest of the beaches in this area are rocky in the water. The amenities at the Turtle Bay Hotel are 1st class – 5 restaurants and 2 bars, along with a full service Spa – all pay as you go for guests from the condos. The atmosphere is relaxed and casual except for the 21 Degrees North Restaurant which you would want to dress-up (Hawaiian Style) a bit for. We enjoyed Lei Leis restaurant at the Golf Clubhouse the best. One of the owners, Ian was there that night “talking story” with everyone. It made us all feel like we were at a house party, not a restaurant. We’ll be ba
I stayed in Turtle Bay condo for 3 nights with my family (6 persons). It was very comfortable and convenient to stay. Rooms are very clean (carpet, furnitue, bedding, etc.). I used high-speed internet easily. The pool is small but children enjoyed swimming very much. A part of the cooker and the cutlery was not too good conditions. Tap of kitchen didn't work well. The noise in the neighboring house was sometimes anxious.
The only thing that was wrong, was that the ice box was not real cold. I called the property manager but there was really nothing they could do until monday. Overall it was great, we just put food in the freezer so it would not spoil and drinks in a cooler.
We definitely enjoyed our stay and would rent this unit again; however, the following is a list of maintenance adjustments that should be made: 1. Downstairs bathtub drain very slow and tub closure doesn't work well. 2. Bathroom fan is older model and quite loud. 3. Bedding for lower bedroom feels worn and used especially sheeting. 4. Air conditioner units are "loud" but they are efficient. 5. No hair dryer in unit-would be nice to have. 6. Bathroom baseboards need repainting.
Mahalo for taking the time to give us your feedback~!
I had requested a unit which could be entered without going up or down any stairs, due to a physical disability. The doorway itself was at ground level; however, one had to go up or down a set of six stairs to get to the walkway leading to the front door.
It was difficult to recover from the arrival evening and the requirement to clean up existing food, kill cockroaches and generally do a bit of housekeeping. I know it is difficult when these types of pests become established but that is an honest assessment of how our party felt.
