This was the perfect location for my father and I to stay near family and friends. The home was very spacious and clean. It’s super close to the pool! Everything was in perfect working order. We really enjoyed staying in this home!

We loved the location. The beds were comfy. Had everything we needed except for shampoo/conditioner (but that is super minor, especially compared to all the other great things that were provided, including beach equipment, etc). Instructions were clear. We had a very lovely stay!

We love the North Shore and this condo was great. The Turtle Bay Resort is within walking distance and the public beach access is as well. We will come back to this area and condos in the near future. Great stay and amenities, we loved it.

Thus was our first time to Hawaii and it was wonderful. The condo is in a great location for exploring the North Shore. Our family of 4 was very comfortable in the condo. Our 11 and 12 year olds slept on the Murphy bed and pull out couch. Having 2 bathrooms was great! And being able to do laundry in the condo was really nice.

This is my second time in this property and when I come back to Oahu I’ll stay here again! We love the location, it’s so close to the beach for sunrise and sunset, and the condo is spacious and comfortable - the perfect place to relax.

The rental unit was very comfortable and had a great location. We ate at all of the restaurants at Turtle Bay. The pool across the road was very convenient and we enjoyed it almost every day. We loved walking to the beach area and just watching the surf. Very peaceful.

My wife and I started our search in March 2023 and exchanged many property profiles. Which led to my oops. I accidentally booked the wrong property.
So the first night I was mad at myself because two of the three beds were ‘pull outs’. A Murphy and a sofa bed. I was dreading the Murphy bed but it turned out to be comfortable.
Access to the property is quirky: from the front gate you have to walk into the complex, access the condo via code, grab the card key for the gate and then walk back to your vehicle. Worked for us. But I’d suggest a little map because I must have looked like Sasquatch coming up over the mound of foliage to the kids that were playing in front as it was night time. There’s a corner path to the property that makes it easier.
The kitchen is well equipped with pots, pans etc. and we made extensive use of the kitchen. You’re going to come across a Foodland from either part of the main road leading to Turtle Bay. Make sure you stop off, register for a card, tie it to your Hawaiian account. Because you’ll get discounts and food in Hawaii is expensive. The Hawaiian airline add will put miles onto your account from your purchases.
We took advantage of the dining at Turtle Bay, walked the paths, hung out at the beach. I’d also recommend the coffee shop at Turtle Bay. It’s like Starbucks but better.
There are two pools on the property. We took full advantage. You need the card key. The pools were always busy with local kids.

We enjoyed our stay on Oahu's North Shore! Though similar to a number of places we looked at, this location had a king sized bed in the master bedroom, and a queen sized Murphy bed, allowing a better option than the typical sofa sleeper. The space was clean, had everything we needed for our stay, and was only a few minute's walk to the beach. This location is so much more enjoyable than all the hustle and bustle in Waikiki.
We enjoyed shoping and eating in Haleiwa, the pies from Ted's Bakery, and even saw a monk seal on the beach. Great visit!

Our stay at Punahele Hale worked out just as advertised. The condo was very clean and had everything needed for all our needs. Kitchen was well stocked with dishes and cooking accessories. May need to buy your favorite spices as they are getting pretty depleted. The location was great right outside Turtle Bay Resort and close to all the north shore beaches and food trucks. The 1 Bedroom 2 bath worked out great for my Wife and I along with our son and grandson. My son on the murphy bed that folds out of the wall and grandson on the couch.

This place is in a wonderful location. We took advantage of the beach and several restaurants at the resort. The trails are amazing. The property provided all we need and the manager Marlene was exceptionally nice and enjoyable to talk with. Bitsy was great and was very responsive. We will stay here again!

I really enjoyed my stay here. It's better than what is represented in the pictures in terms of "vibe". I loved having two bathrooms. the bedroom was big and the bed was comfy. It has a nice location with a short walk to a beautiful beach and the resort. highly recommend!

This property exceeded our expectations. Beautiful, quiet, relaxing. Nice short walk to the beach and resort. We had a minor issue with the coffee maker, but Bitsy was on it. She brought us another one in less than an hour. Mahalo Bitsy, for everything. Aloha

The property was just as shown in the photos. It is a very nice unit that had everything we needed. We enjoyed the quiet mornings listening to the birds, the rain and gentle breezes. The provided beach chairs, cooler and floats were much appreciated. Communication with the owner was easy and Bitsy always responded promptly. We had a wonderful stay here!

Bitsy was so helpful and super nice. I owned a home in Haleiwa for about 15 years, so I know the area, but really enjoyed staying up here because it’s centrally located, nice and quite, beautiful landscape, and walking distance to the restaurants and beach. The drive to Haleiwa is a short one as well.

Great little place with everything you need for a holiday. Stayed with husband and adult son room for all of us! Lovely location.

The condo was the perfect size for the 4 of us. Having the full kitchen allowed us to make a few meals to save money. It was very convenient to wash clothes and beach towels using the washer and dryer there. The beds were both comfortable and the neighborhood was nice and quiet. We love the North Shore and had fun going to new beaches each day.

The place was very nice and well maintained. The staff were very helpful and had great communication.
Overall a great stay.
Only 2 things that were a drawback for us. The bed was very firm which is not our preference. The bedroom did not have black-out curtains and there was very bright lights just outside that were illuminated all night.

We had everything we needed and there was even beach supplies. Kitchen had everything.
Last night there we got new upstairs neighbors at 5:30 a.m. and they stomped around and were very noisy for over an hour.

Location location location. We absolutely loved our stay at this condo. It was perfect for our family of 4. Incredible location, all our favorite beaches just few minutes away. We loved morning walks around Turtle Bay Resort which is stunning. Recommend 100%. Property manager was extremely helpful and accomodating. Thank you!

This was such a great place for my family of four. Having the Murphy bed, bed chesterfield and separate bedroom was so nice for us. Kitchen and all amenities were great and being so close to Turtle Bay resort and Kuhuku makes for a great base for a wonderful vacation. Thanks Bitsy, we are looking forward to our next visit!

We enjoyed our stay in this well appointed, comfortable condominium. Nestled in a golf course next to the ocean, it’s a just a short walk along a tree lined path to the beach. Heaven!

Loved our stay here. Had everything we needed. The only thing we would’ve added would be a cheese grater, BBQ and outdoor furniture.
Slept our family of 4 comfortably. Felt safe in the gated community. We loved the North Shore and would stay here again in a heartbeat.
Snorkels, beach chairs and beach towels were nice to have here. Cooked many meals here and everything was here that we needed.
8.0
Had a harder time rating this property because there were many things I loved and few things that were a bit challenging. Getting the key fob for gate was a big one. . Only because it was very very late and dark when we arrived. If I had stayed prior I would have had no problem. But due to how dark it was, tired and had grumpy husband that didn’t get he needed to stay with car while I ran and tried to find condo, unlock and return with gate fob. Not sure how you could make that better? Manager was very clear with instructions she typed out for me. It was just a bit challenging due to such a long flight, and drive. I think the location of place is wonderful. So easy to get around walking or driving. Loved north shore . First time staying north. We normally always stay elsewhere on island. Loved the hiking trails, pickelball, golf, and people in condo complex. I told manager it’s too bad this unit Doesn’t have back deck to hang out on to drink your coffee. Nothing can be done there. She explained they used that space to make living room larger. It’s an older , dated unit. But very well stocked with spices, oils, beach chairs, noodles, etc. manager wonderful and helpful.

Walk to lei leis, the hotel, the beach. Great pool. We’ll be back!
Bitsy was so nice!
8.0
Overall, our stay was good. The unit while updated could use some updating in the bathrooms. Kitchen was well stocked. Overall cleanliness left a little bit to be desired. The bed was comfortable. Air conditioning worked. The location can’t be beat with full access to the resort and all its amenities. was easy to get a hold of an answer to our questions quickly, I would definitely stay here again.
