Welcome to our air conditioned and spacious condo at Kuilima Estates East, located right at the entrance of Turtle Bay, Ritz Carlton North Shore. Our 1 bedroom condo with loft sleeps 6. Come for rest and relaxation, hit the beach with all of our beach toys (snorkel gear, foam surf board, boogie boards, chairs), enjoy some golf or even pickle ball (paddles & balls provided)!

Our two-story condo begins on the second floor of a quiet corner unit facing the golf course.

Wonderful beach get away!

My family and I stayed here and absolutely loved it. Turtle Bay Beach was a short walk away and many other breath taking beaches were short drives away. We loved being able to take a short drive to food carts, the Polynesian cultural center or the farmers market. Wonderful condo! Owners respond super fast and are extremely helpful! We highly recommend it!

Great place for the family

The condo was an excellent place for our family of four, especially the teens needing their own little space. We’ve stayed in Turtle Bay on previous trips and always enjoy the location. The only thing I would recommend is a refreshing of the beach amenities, but overall we loved our stay and would definitely come back.

Great home base on the North Shore

My husband and I were looking for a comfortable place as a jumping off point for a week of adventures with the kids. We wanted a place to make meals in between trips to the food truck park and the capability to keep up with the dirty laundry. The beds were comfortable and we used the beach towels everyday. We appreciated the screened lanai and the ice maker in the freezer. It was an easy walk to catch a sunset or sunrise near the resort or walk to the bay in our suits. Communication with the host was easy and clear. We’d definitely book again!

Cozy Place

The place is very cute. Beds are very confortable and it is very close to the beach. I also liked that it was pretty spacious for a family of four. On the other hand, the condo itself wasn’t very clean. Both bathrooms needed to actually be cleaned. I even found adults hairs, and three dead cockroaches in the tub. This place definitely needs some TLC. It could be the perfect place if it was well maintained.

Cockroaches

We literally killed about 100 during our week long stay (mostly in the kitchen and bathrooms, but they were everywhere). We contacted the property manager about it the first night and pest control came to put traps/bait, but it wasn't enough to deal with the problem. The place also seemed like it hadn't been deep-cleaned in a long time (built up dust and dirt on wall hangings, fans, baseboards, etc.). Also, the check-in requires you to retrieve keys from the property manager's mailbox a few miles away; kind of a hassle. For the positives: the beds are comfortable and the condo is decently equipped with kitchen items/beach gear. We've stayed at other rentals in Kuilima Estates many times before and this was our worst experience.

Perfect home base while staying on Oahu

Keep in mind I traveled with my husband and our 4 kids (ages 11-19) as you read this: Location: This was our first time going to Hawaii, and from past experiences we prefer a calmer place to stay in rather than the hotel-feel you get by staying in a high rise condo/resort. Staying on the North Shore can be a drive if you are constantly going back to the south side, but we loved the slow ride around in the mornings. Having the ocean in view as the day begins is just awesome. The beaches in the area have much stronger waves than they do on the south side of the island, but easy to pull off the side of the road to visit. Food in the area: There is Ted’s Bakery a couple miles away in one direction (excellent pies and breakfast + lunch options), and a community of food trucks a few miles in the other direction (recommend Seven Brothers for burgers and salads, and Giovanni’s for shrimp) so there are good options are nearby. Condo: this condo was just the right size for our group of 6. I was very happy with in-house laundry available. It was stocked with plenty of beach towels and bath towels. She had a supply of boogie boards and snorkeling gear. I’d wished there was a better skillet/frying pan to use for making breakfast - the ones there had most the non stick coating scratched/worn off. There were a couple roaches hanging around, but I understand that’s everywhere there so oh well. Very happy with this location - key pick up/drop off was easy. Thanks!!

Kawela Bay review

Many cockroaches in kitchen including the dishwasher; greasy, unclean, and chipped dishes in cupboards; front security door is very difficult to shut close; had to drive out of the way to pickup and drop off the keys at someone's personal home. We've stayed in far nicker places for less in the same complex and we would definitely not stay here again.

As usual a great stay!

We sure do like staying at Turtle Bay! Cathy’s place was certainly familiar to us and it helped make our trip great! I’m house laundry is sooo convenient! Check in was easy. The main toilet had trouble with refilling the tank and the smoke detector battery was low which resulted in chirping. We informed her about it and she was fixing to take care of it. The bed was plenty comfy. Windows and sliders open for a nice cross breeze. The place stayed plenty cool for us to sleep at night. Kitchen could have been better stocked with spices. Sift through some of the beach amenities to make sure they function well- both umbrellas we tried to bring with us were broken. But this is all very small stuff and we had a great time regardless! Love the North Shore!

Great Condo/amazing stay

Great place to stay on the North Shore. Condo was clean and comfortable for all 4 adults. Appreciated the fans and AC units in each sleeping space. Close to the pool and to Turtle Bay Resort and beach. It was about a 5 minute walk for us. Went down to the resort almost every day for the beach and drinks/food in the evening. We had a car but chose to walk as it was so close and a beautiful walk. Walking on the golf course path also leads to a beach! A five to ten minute drive in either direction leads to food trucks, Ted’s bakery, etc. Cathy was great to work with. Check in process and communication was made easy. Will definitely stay here again!

Greeted by Cockroaches

The checkin email was appreciated. However the keys that were supposed to be in an envelope with my name per the email were not there. The keys that were turned out to be maintenance keys. In the listing it has an address, however the address is not the address listed when booked. When I contacted Cathy she asked if I was at her home to pick up the keys she forgot to leave in the mailbox per her email instructions. I let her know I got keys from the mailbox which is when I found out they were maintenance keys. When I asked for confirmation on the address she got an attitude and referred me to the email she had sent. I eventually found the correct unit per the email only to be greeted with cockroaches on the counter and walls of the kitchen. I messaged Cathy regarding the cockroaches and she told me she was made aware of them on Friday, and had the condo sprayed on Friday and Monday (day of arrival). I let her know I understood she had someone spray but the cockroaches were still in the condo and very much alive. Instead of sending maintenance to spray again or offer a can of spray she immediately offered a refund so we could move somewhere else. It was clear I was not going to get any help with the issue from her and after looking for anywhere else to move the cost was 3x what was already paid due to short notice. So we bought our own can of raid and sprayed all week as the cockroaches never left. After looking under the sink I discovered multiple cockroaches sticky bait traps full of cockroaches with dust covering them. This problem clearly didn’t start on Friday as I was told. I would not be renting from her again. A simple attempt to help with the problem would have sufficed however she showed no interest in guaranteeing our stay was pleasant and cockroach free. The layout was cute and having pool toys and a couple life jackets available was one of the reasons we booked here.

Turtle Bay getaway

We have stayed at Turtle Bay condos numerous times with friends and family. We love the North Shore’s proximity to our favorite beaches away from busy Honolulu. This condo met our needs as far as beds and space. The beds were comfortable, the common areas were good for our group. The kitchen and bathrooms could have been cleaned a tad better. It’s an upstairs unit, so keep that in mind if you have older travelers. The pool was great, we used it almost every night after beach and before bed for the kids. They loved being able to swim there after long days at the beach. Kahuku is a great town with amazing food stops. It’s a must place to stay if you want to avoid the craziness of Honolulu, and has some of the best beaches within 5-25 minute drives. We think Turtle Bay is the best place to stay on Oahu. A condo lockbox would make key retrieval and drop off a little easier. Overall a great place to rent, and we loved our stay here.

Great Stay

We loved this home. It was a 10 minute walk to the beach. It is located on the north shore area and very close to many visitor hot spots. The place was spacious enough for the five of us, though we did have a minor issue with the downstairs bathroom, the owner was super responsive and informed us of how to address the matter. You do have to travel to another location pick-up/drop off the key that access the unit, but it is not far (though a slight inconvenience). The kitchen was stocked with everything necessary to prep a meal and the in-unit washer and dryer was fantastic to have.
