wonderful resort. rooms are a bit outdated, especially the bathrooms, but the resort is lovely. the food at 21 north was wonderful. Ola was extremely overpriced and really less than average. The concierge is very little helpful! they say they have mail service, but what they really mean is that they sell stamps and send your mail, they dont know... more

We chose Turtle Bay resort for our short honeymoon in Feb 2009. We wanted a quiet place, with nature close to us and budget options in terms of food. We based our trip on reviews from TripAdvisor. We stayed in a wonderful Oceanfront room (whichever type that has a balcony) with a breathtaking view at the lagoon. We never shut... more

We live on Oahu so Turtle Bay Resort was a stay-vacation for us. Make sure to check out the property’s Web site because its advance payment options are less than kamaaina (local discount) rates. We booked an Ocean Front King Deluxe since the deluxe rooms are the only ones with full balconies. We were disappointed that our “Ocean Front” room... more

We stayed here 14 years ago when it was an aging Hilton resort. I would gladly take the aging Hilton over this. The setting is spectacular but this cannot compensate for the rooms. I feel I've been ripped off. If this was a $100 hotel, I wouldn't complain. There is a sickening smell in the rooms (we tried two rooms).... more

Really the best resort in location in Oahu. If you don't want the shrieking frenzy of Honolulu or its crowded faux beaches, the North Shore is the place to go. Tranquil, great beaches, excellent snorkeling for even the most inexperienced and still close enough to the resturants and night life of Waikiki. The pony ride at the resort, Shark's Cove... more

I thought the condition of the resort was good, I know some reviews touched on this but I have to say they must be picky or an unusual occurrence. The Daily resort fee was a joke. With that fee you get self parking which is open to the public. This caused several problems like trying to find a spot, walking... more

Pleasant Holidays book this resort in a package deal from LAX to HNL including airfare, hotel and 5 day auto rental we paid about 2,600 for 5 nights. Perhaps a bit high, but it was booked 3 weeks before departure. The flight over was oversold, the plane was crowded. Hertz car rental was fast and efficient, the road to the... more

Book this hotel. This is the place. This is Hawaii. We never even left the resort. The negatives expressed on other reviews are generally true. Yes, the hotel is a little worn in places. Sure, the rooms are laughably decorated in a horrifying tableau of greens. You won't have a state of the art TV (why anyone would turn the... more

We just returned from a wonderful family vacation at Turtle Bay and will definitely return. The highlight of our trip by far was the kayak tour of Kawela Bay - you can book it with Captain Scott right on the resort's website. A blast, and great to learn a bit about the ecology of the area. Snorkeling at the resort's... more
