The location of the accommodation is very good, and great for exploring the North Shore. The Estates are well maintained and the pool area very good. The property we stayed in, was however, in need of a refresh and in some instances a clean. Everything within the interior was tired and it just needs some money spent on bringing it up to spec, especially given the daily rate. I will balance this and say, that we had a great time, so this did not spoil our vacation and there were by no means any horrors to be found. To improve overall experience and value for money, some money does need to be spent.

We are kamaaina and decided to stay here as a family of 4 for 2 nights. The place was a bit outdated but basically had everything that you could need- as well as things like extra towels, laundry detergent, and a full range of kitchen ware. The part that was lacking was that instead of a loveseat, it would have been better to have a bigger couch. However, space is an issue so I think the owners did the best considering the space. The major downside was that the aero bed had a hole in it and we found out during the middle of the night when the kids woke up to find themselves sleeping on the deflated aero bed. I called the after hours number the next morning but was told there wasn’t anything they could do, so the next night, one child slept on the couch and the other put the 2 single chairs together and slept that way. It is what you make if it, so aside from the sleeping inconveniences, we had fun.

We stayed here almost 3 years ago and could not have been happier. It seems like things are really getting worn out since then. The bed is absolutely way too hard and should be swapped out for a softer king size (bed now is queen size). A few minor maintenance issues (toilets running/kitchen sink dripping/not the best cleaning). But overall, while the unit is older, the location is spectacular and for a family on a budget, the price can't be beat! And the condo is fully stocked. The unit could be way nicer with just a few minor updates. Don't know if we'll stay in this unit again but we will definitely use Turtle Bay Estates again! Wonderful rental company!

Condo itself was good,perfect location. A little dated but served our needs just fine. Some house cleaning issues, The air mattress provided smelt like pee when opened. We had to clean it before use. There is no beach amenities other than towels. Luckily our Son lives on the Island and brought this all with him. No info on the resort itself ( walking trails, beach access, etc.) My friend rented a unit on the west side and had all these things.
Was not told about the major construction going on at the resort which was closed.
We still had a great time, it would of been nice to have a map or info about the resort itself.If it wasn't for my friends info in her condo and my son with his beach gear I would of been very disappointed. Most people visiting do not have this advantage.

It’s not the Ritz but for what’s available on the North Shore, it is an adequate stay. Adequate kitchen and reasonably clean for its age. Quiet.

I love this location. There is so much to do.

I love staying at The Estates at Turtle Bay. This was my first time staying in the Da Kine unit. The location is great and place was clean. My only complaint would be how uncomfortable and hard the bed is. We woke up every morning with back pain because of it.

Location was great to explore the north end of the island. Unit well stocked and comfortable.

the place was nice and clean. it was a little hard to see the unit number at night; had to walk closer to each unit to see. I recommend the place.

This is a very decent rental for the price. Our trip was in June & Turtle Bay Resort prices were over double what this place was charging. This is a 5 minute walk to the resort, so we enjoyed most of their amenities - restaurants, excursions, etc. The rental itself is older and is not upgraded at all, but was a good size (there were 2 of us) and had more than enough kitchen supplies. The place was clean but seemed a bit stuffy, it may not have been occupied for some time. The description said there would only be a days worth of toilet paper but there were 4 rolls, more than enough for our 7 day trip. There were also small soaps and makeup remover cloths in both bathrooms. The bedroom bathroom shower is smaller (fits 1 person) but the second bathroom is bigger with a tub. There are 2 AC units in the bedroom and living room. They worked fine but we did get overheated while getting ready for a wedding; it was just too hot outside and inside for the unit to completely cool the room. You will need a car to travel outside the estates and the resort. No other food options close to the resort. Next best option are food trucks (10-15 minutes away) but they close early evening. Next best town is,is Haleiwa (30-40 minutes away), and Waikiki is an hour away. We never interacted with property management but the info process was easy (emailed entry instructions the day before - had a ket fob to get in and out of the gated property; front door was keyless which was great). I did call about a week before our trip as I didn't know they were going to email with instructions. All in all, a good place.

The condo was clean and had what we needed. I won't say it is luxury but I loved the 2nd floor unit and the price. It is as close to the ocean as you can get, about a 5 minute walk.

Our stay couldn’t have been any better. The condo was exceptionally clean and well stocked with everything we needed. The price was very reasonable. The neighbors were a bit loud as they got ready to leave at 3 am, but that could happen anywhere. It didn’t damper our stay. It was a 5 minute walk to Turtle Bay Resort, which was convenient as we had family staying there. We would definitely stay here again!!

Clean, cozy, comfortable and quiet. Easy to access. Excellent location on the island. Great location at Turtle Bay condos with a shady lanai and view of the golf course. Close to the pool. Great size for a couple. We enjoyed our stay in the area. Thank you!

Everything we needed for a few days. After 2 nights at Turtle Bay resort we appreciated having our own well equipped kitchen. Cooking breakfast in while watching the day wake up was lovely. The bed was comfortable. The bathrooms clean with lots of towels. We’d definitely stay again.

The condo had everything necessary for my stay. The decor is a bit dated but everything worked and it was well equipped.

Condo was perfect for my family of 4. We stayed for 1 week. I feel like we should have had at least couple more garbage bags for the kitchen. We only had 1. The floors I felt could’ve been swept better. I was stepping on dirt, and sand. Needs a better broom that can catch debis better. Other than that no complaints here.

We have stayed at many Turtle Bay condos but this is NOW our absolute favorite! Very clean, perfect location, and very quiet. We loved jumping in the heated pool after a day playing in the ocean. The management company was incredible on keeping us informed with the hurricane coming our way and ready to assist if we needed anything (although we didn't). Definitely our new favorite condo at The Estates!

A very easy process on making the reservation and with the app, a breeze to check-in. The unit overall was in great condition. The only issue was with the micro-ants around the kitchen area.
The unit was spacious with comfortable furniture and kitchen was well stocked with all you need to do your cooking.

Rental was top shape as described in picture and post. My experience was awesome! Everything worked fine, AC, TV, fridge, washer and dryer. Staff was very helpful and kind. Definitely would recommend to family and friends when on that side of town. Location was very convenient. Overall No disappointments!

This unit was just right for our needs and was in a perfect location on the property. The unit had a wonderful breeze through it the entire time and we had no need to use the window air conditioning units. I've stayed in a variety of units over the last 15 years and would definitely stay in this one again!

The location was great for all of us (mom & kids who are 5yr &2yr and dad who loves surfing at Sunset beach). Very safe-kids friendly beach (turtle bay resort beach) is only few minutes away by walk, and the restaurants, coffee shop, pool,
tennis court are all very close! There is everything you need. (But the rice cooker looked old, so we didn’t use it) Only one thing we didn’t like was.. the toilet had a problem for flashing. Some parts of toilet tank should be repair as it sometimes didn’t flash properly. We should have told the manager while we were staying but we were so busy.. hope they will fix very soon.

Can't be beat for the price. Close to all the attractions in North Shore and a reasonable drive to Honolulu.

Blow comfortable wind from living window to front door.
Clean rooms,
Nice view of Fazio Course #18 hole.
Bright living room.

Swimming pool key doesn’t work
Next room’s repair work was very noisy.
Answer to Sunday email question was late.

We have rented many units at Turtle Bay. Unit 164East has the floor plan we prefer for a one bedroom (square footage and extra guest bedroom). The rental costs are definitely lower than more updated units. The view of the 18th hole on the Fazio course is lovely. One drawback of the unit is the noise from the helicopter pad near by which is much busier than other times we visited. The management company was a delight to deal with --this was the first time we used this particular management company.

We stayed here for three nights for a staycation. The apartment was more spacious than expected, and was furnished with everything we needed. I enjoyed the kitchen, though I didn't like the glass pane as a cutting board (I'm a professional cook), my kids loved the beach and the more or less private pool, and my wife enjoyed the garden and views. We will definitely come back again

We are from Kahuku and love turtle bay estates! Its like a home away from home. Very peaceful and relaxing!

Awesome

The property was amazing and we had fun. Everything was nice & clean. The kichen had everything we needed to cook and the dishwasher was great. Both bathrooms had towels & the washer/dryer in the house was great. The only negative thing I could say was the bed was to frim for me.

We stayed at Da Kine for a weekend and enjoyed the condo thoroughly. It's well appointed, well equipped, close to amenities, and very comfortable. Extremely good value and highly recommended.

Highly recommended as a great value alternative to the turtle bay resort. Facilities are good and clean. Will come back to stay

The property descriptions was accurate regarding the location, the layout, and the amenities. While the unit was older and the cabinetry/counters were original throughout, the property was clean and well maintained. (The front porch light did not work, which made it difficult to insert key in the dark into the front door.) The manager provided good customer service and allowed for an hour later check out to accommodate our flight. I would recommend this property to a friend if they enjoy being away from attractions and settling into a quiet lifestyle. It was spacious and adequate, although it would have been nice to have a pull out couch rather than have to blow up the queen mattress every night to accommodate the four in our family. The blow up mattress was very comfortable, though. It was nice to have a washer/dryer in the unit. The pool, while small, was well maintained. We knew that the location was not going to be on the beach, but it was nice to have access to the network of trails along the beach on the north shore, adjacent to the Turtle Bay Resort. For a family who enjoy surfing and snorkeling, we would have rather had a property closer to the beach (Sunset area), but the drive is not far from this condo. The bath towels were clean, comfortable and tastefully chosen to match the beach theme. Our family eats most of our meals in our unit and we found that the kitchen was well stocked with cutlery, dishes, pots and pans, and glassware. We enjoyed sitting on the lanai off of the living area which views the golf course. We could hear the waves crashing in the distance through the trees when the doors and windows are open.

Great

Whilst property is an older style establishment, the condo was very clean, tidy, had all amenities. TV in lounge room didn't work - once management sent out someone who fixed it immediately however the TV seemed to be at fault after storms. Very convenient to north shore- golf courses etc. Only 1 hour from Honolulu and an easy drive.

Relaxing and enjoyable.

Overall, we had a very nice experience. The instructions for entering the property and departing were good. The location was excellent in that it was a short walk to the Turtle Bay resort and all the amenities that the resort provided. The actual room was very nice. The only issue was the cleanliness of the floors. Otherwise, we were very pleased with the unit - Great views, well appointed kitchen, excellent wi-fi, etc. We would go back again.

My wife and I stayed at the Turtle Bay condo unit #164-East. We were very happy and satisfied with the condo unit! It was very clean and well maintained. We were especially pleased that it had tv's, a/c units and ceiling fans in both the living room and bedroom. The room was quiet, and had a nice 2nd floor view of the golf course.

We were very satisfied, and would definitely choose this unit again if we have the opportunity!

Very clean and quite property. We loved the fact it was walking distance to Turtle Bay resort where we can go and grab something to eat or go surfing. Very satisfied with my stay and would recommend it to others.

Enjoyed the awesome, great, relax stay here. Loved everything about it. Definitely coming back in the near future. ETB is the best! ??????

Excellent
