The location was good for 4 days on the North Shore. The beach was farther away than the listing suggests which meant driving. Great food trucks nearby but grocery store is a bit farther so stock up before you arrive.
We loved the location close to the Ritz Carlton Turtle Bay, golf, horseback riding, and the beach. It was nice to not have to drive too far. Easy drive to the grocery store and we even went to a movie while we were here.
This review is not: discriminatory, inflammatory, offensive, or insulting comments. There is no reason not to post this:After staying at three different locations on the islands, we found this condo to be run of the mill at best. The fact that there was not an extra roll of paper towels, no coffee, sugar, creamer, laundry, pods, all of which were available at our other locations through VRBO . It seems the condo association manages this as a bare bones minimum. our Christmas Eve meal at the resort was overly expensive 700 for three people and was not nearly as good as other restaurants that were half the price at other restaurants throughout the islands.
Would stay here again for sure. Clean and great for my wife and I. We had a rental car while kn the north shore and this was a quick drive to great places. A quick walk to the resort area too for sunsets! Great place.
Overall, it was a good stay but would have like to know the following in the listing:
1. It is a 10-minute walk to the beach not a 1-minute walk.
2. It is low on amenities. It had 3 small towels for the beach and 2 dated, folding lawn chairs, not beach chairs.
3. Bring your own soap as the tiny bars provided last only a day.
4. A window mounted A/C unit in the bedroom only. The remainder of the unit has no A/C.
5. The dishwasher did not work.
6. The queen bed mattress is very dated and needs replacing.
I guess I would suggest a few updates on the unit. One of the selling points from the listing was that it stated it was a 1-minute walk to the beach. We were a little disappointed it wasn't so.
We had a great stay. The apartment is clean, nicely furnished. The area is nicely landscaped. The nature around the area is beautiful. There are nice hiking trails, beautiful beaches⊠Turtle bay resort is also walking distance, guests can shop at the hotel cafes/restaurants etc.
I had so much fun staying in the Kuilima Estates. The property was nice and our room had a pretty view of the golf course. Communication with the property manager was inconsistent, as I had to sign a document with the information of the people staying here and did not hear back but overall I had a great time. Would stay here again.
The Turtle Bay condo is a terrific property and its location is ideal. Close to just about any North Shore beach, including idyllic spots right in Turtle Bay. The condo is well kept, a great size, and has everything you need for a great getaway! We would definitely stay there again!!!
Nice and clean. Nice view of the golf course. 7-8 walk to Turtle Bay resort. Kitchen poorly equipped for cooking if that's your plan. Beach chairs, Towels, and umbrellas severally lacking. For a beach condo, that needs immediate improvement. Would also be nice if rental company provided small shampoos like most do these days.
