Turtle Bay accommodations

The high rating, general feel of the pics, and reviews of this listing are SPOT ON. What a lovely cottage-y home base for those wanting a safe, private, beautiful, off-the-beaten-on-the-authentic-North-Shore-path vibe. The beach and view of the Pacific Ocean are world-class. 10-minute, beautiful, quiet drive to the charming beaches, shopping, and dining centers dotting the oceanfront highway heading east. Lots of active things to do in the area. Decor and kitchen are high-end. Hosts quick to respond and hospitable. North Shore waters are mostly not for families with small children who want to swim and snorkel, and this spot is no different. Our only wish: upgrade the mattresses. It’s like Goldilocks, but with only two we never got to the “just right” part. ☺️ Whomever snags this reservation, think you’ll be blown away!

We had a wonderful time. The place is very comfortable. The upper deck had a nice breeze with a view of the ocean. Acces to the beach unbeatable.

We absolutely LOVED our stay ! It was so cozy and clean. Easy to find, great location.. only about a 20 minute drive to Kualoa Ranch (highly recommend) and a 30 minute drive to the North Shore. The water is less than a 2 minute walk, but keep in mind it’s not the easiest to jump in as it’s pretty rocky. There is a stunning, white sand beach just 5 minutes away though by car. Highly recommend The crouching Lion for a nice meal. 10 out of 10 all around!

Everything was fantastic. Fully stocked kitchen. Great views and beach. Lots of communications before arrival with clear instructions. Only complaints would be the 10am check out and no coffee .

My family and I had a wonderful stay! no complaints or issues. Wonderful location, peaceful view, and construction wasn't too loud for us. I am grateful for all of the instructions and details that they emailed prior to our stay, and they were very responsive. Definitely will want to stay here again.

Location, location, location! The inside of the condo is as it appears on the website. Comfortable. Nicely appointed kitchen. We didn’t cook while there, but it was well equipped. We loved having coffee in the morning on the screened in lanai, listening to the birds, waves and watching the chickens. A very short walk out the front door and you are on a great beach for swimming, snorkeling, walking. Emmanuel, the host, has all sorts of equipment stored on the lanai…boogie boards, beach chairs, snorkels , flippers. The pool was very cool, I don’t think it’s heated, but we did use it for laps. This is a great beach condo….simple, comfortable, great location. If you want upscale the Ritz Carlton is up the road. Emmanuel, the host, is responsive, accessible. We had a good experience at Punaluu and really hope to return soon .

nice place right on the beach. The building is old and there was construction going on in the unit above us but that is to expected for an older building. The unit was clean and well stocked, especially with coffee Being on the ground floor was very convenient for accessing the beach from the Lanai instead of having to go through the main building. The screens to the Lanai do need to be replaced but they functioned for what we needed. Loved how beautiful and private the sandy beach was. Never busy; it was unusual to see more than 10 people on the beach at once and we saw turtles everyday in the water and on the beach.

Julie’s place is in a great location, is within walking distance to the beach and was very comfortable. Parking was limited if you arrived back to the apartment later in the evening.

Excellent visit. Super clean / super nice / super well appointed condo. Was our second stay at Turtle Bay and this condo was top shelf. Perfect base camp for a family of 5 (teenagers) with a monster fridge / freezer and all of the kitchen items / beach supplies that we could ever need. As a frequent Airbnber, the mark of the best places are little things like boxes of good (real) Kleenex in all of the rooms, nice / thick towels, and all of the supplies for laundry, etc. and this condo had it all. True pros.

The kitchen was so well stocked with much more than expected! We appreciated the quality of the rooms linens and decor. The decor was a homey beachy vibe and was enough that it didn't feel as if you were staying in a rented bare bones condo. The pool was just steps away and the ocean is a 10 - 15 minute walk. Enjoyed morning runs on the golf course paths down to the water. We sat out on the private lanai and enjoyed coffee. Checkout was reasonable and a breeze. We would definitely stay here again!

This place was amazing! Newly remodeled, clean, comfortable, everything we were looking for and more. The host is amazing, made us feel at home and made the whole experience seamless and enjoyable! We will definitely be booking with this host again, such a great experience highly recommended!

Really enjoyed staying here. The hosts were very good at communicating and made it very easy to get a late checkout worked out with them. The place is in a great area with nice pools nearby. The place is a little small but was described that way. I’d recommend staying here. The only negative was the WiFi stopped working after the first night so we weren’t really able to use the TV the last couple night. It was a little frustrating but everything else was wonderful.

Very clean, great location for what we wanted to do, easy to find, and had all the beach equipment we needed!

Geoffrey was helpful and responded quickly. The condo was a perfect location for our needs and we loved staying there. It was clean and bright. Loved the beach toys and the beach. I would definitely stay again.

This was our first time visiting Oahu as a family. The hosts were friendly and we enjoyed having the space to ourselves with a washer and dryer on site. We do appreciate how clean things were and the beach accessories that were available to use under the stairs. Plenty of beach towels, and bedding and we loved the location. You can also vaguely see the ocean from the kitchen window. Things to consider -windows need to be shut and locked while away. By the time we returned and opened windows by 6pm it was too hot to cook dinner and there was little breeze to cool the space. We made sure to pick up something to eat prior to returning. We were warmer than we liked sleeping at night but survived -don’t sleep with windows open if sensitive to noise. There’s a rooster that goes off throughout the night. -The Airbnb is the bottom floor of a house so you do hear footsteps occasionally, and the parking is up a tight, narrow driveway on a hill which accommodates one car at a time up and down

Great place and everything about Airbnb is perfect so would recommend. The Turtle Bay resource beach is awesome (golf range is sweet, food / drinks are good, and it’s walking). The Turtle Bay beach is great too if you like relaxing and snorkling, only downside is the waves are nonexistent there so not good for bodysurfing. But you can drive to that nearby
