Welcome to Kuilima Estates, the condo property located on the grounds of world-renowned Turtle Bay. The condos are surrounded by two beautifully manicured golf courses and are the only condos on the North Shore. This is a great place to relax, rewind, and restore, and a world away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The condo property is a short walk to the hotel and to a lovely, sheltered, coved beach, where you can swim, snorkel, and surf. We have our pools, with lounge chairs, an outdoor shower, and charcoal BBQ grills. Bring your own equipment and play tennis on our courts at no charge. Experience the comforts of home as you experience aloha!
Since we are in a tropical environment, it is common to see insects and geckos in the condos. No amount of spraying will completely eliminate insects, especially ants.

Nice, quiet, walking distance to uncrowded beach. Wish the directions were better to find the right condo. Also no info on rules, check-in or check-out

Reviewer Comments:
We chose this because of its central location to Waimea valley, Haleiwa, Polynesian Cultural Center, and Kuloa Ranch as well as the very close proximity to Turtle Bay resort. There is an awesome food cart pod two miles East as well but don’t rely on that for dinner in winter. Parking and condo entry was convenient and this unit is very close to a small unheated pool. It’s on the ground floor which makes it easy to pop over to the pool however that also means the next door neighbors can sprawl out on their side of the patio thus reducing your privacy. The kitchen is well stocked as far as dishes and cookware however there is nothing else except a salt & pepper shaker (and the salt was empty so we bought some). We’ve rented lots of units through VRBO, AirBnB and Vacasa over the years and have always had some random odds & ends left from previous renters. Heck the place we are renting in Makaha right now has all tons of stuff so we don’t have to go buy a bottle of mustard that we will use once. Anyway, that’s just a heads up for your grocery shopping plans. The bed here was deliciously comfortable and having his/hers bathrooms was a luxury. We loved all the artwork in the unit and we chuckled to ourselves that all the Buzz’s Steakhouse posters seduced us into eating there when we visited Kailua beach. One complaint that we had is that we weren’t warned ahead of our reservation that exterminators would be entering our unit and spraying. We weren’t told until our second evening that spraying would happen the next day. There is no such thing as safe bug poison and spraying should happen only when the unit is unoccupied.

Reviewer Comments:
We were attending a wedding at Turtle Bay and for half the price of the resort hotel rooms, we had our own condo. We saved so much money cooking for ourselves, having a place for our local friends to visit,do our own laundry, ect.Checking in was easy, checking out we had to drive a few miles and were late to the plan for that;)As far as the condo, it could use some love. It was well stocked with dishes, pots and pans, towels, etc, but the shower curtain smelled terribly moldy and one shower could not even be used due to a poor shower head. The other tub would fill as you shower from a clogged drain.The screen door in the back was completely off the track and just propped against the glass door. When I tried to iron my dress the cord started popping and sparking from a cut in the cord. So simple improvements with some attention.

My ohana enjoyed a quiet and relaxing getaway from the real world. The unit was perfect and had everything we needed to cook, go to the beach and pool. My one improvement area is that the sheets and pillowcases had blood stains on them. I would suggest that the owner replace these items as soon as possible.

Very nice property grounds and well cared for. Loved that there was an adult only pool. The security answered the gate phone with "What do you want?" This was before we had our gate fob.The cable TV was awful and the furniture was unkindly uncomfortable except for the bed. It was well stocked with kitchen utilities but the fridge was outdated. We did not cook anything during our seven night stay. There was only air conditioning in the bedroom but with the front door and rear patio screens and ceiling fans there was a nice flow of air through this ground floor room.We will be back in the near future but will choose an upgraded unit with comfortable furniture. Our average was about $125 per night which was excellent.

197 is a nice unit, fairly clean, but outdated fixtures. ( ie old faucets, tubs etc.) Great place to stay if you are out for the day, but the view from the patio is of garbage dumpsters. They stage them on the access road behind the condo, the truck picks them up around 6:30 a.m., then they redistribiute the dumpsters throughout, with the tractor. The next day is the recycles, then the compostable dumpsters, each day, there was activity. This is why the price of the condo is what it is. Not disatisfied, but would have paid up to be on the golf course

My wife and I stayed at Condo Unit #W197. Here's our ratings: Overall - 5. We were very satisfied with our stay. Property's Condition - 4. Although the unit was older, it was in great condition. It was very clean, the amenities were good. The only issue was that we did not know how to operate the tv with the remote. They should have left some operating instructions in the room. Location - 5. It was a great location. The parking was convenient. We had a choice of 2 swimming pools that were close by. Property Management - 5. We had no problems with the management. They were very helpful and friendly. Would Recommend? - 5. Yes, we were totally satisfied with our experience and would highly recommend this unit.

I have stayed at the Turtle Bay condos many times, and this unit was not my favorite. Pros: 1) it’s a Less expensive unit on this property. 2) I love the location of staying at the turtle Bay condos. 3) It’s clean. 4) The king bed was VERY comfortable. Cons: 1) This unit does not sit on the golf course, so no great views. 2) There is no AC in the living room, and air flow in this unit is not strong. If someone stays on the pull out couch they will want AC!! 3) This is a bottom floor unit and you can clearly hear loud walking and doors open/close upstairs. 4). The property management company works banker hours so our WiFi was never working and finding/entering our unit was VERY frustrating - and there’s no one to ask for help. And the app they try to push you to is DUMB and never worked. 5) The parking stall was a bit far which became tiresome with luggage and daily hauling beach gear n such. There are many other units I’ve enjoyed better; I would not recommend this one.

Unit was nice and clean and price was reasonable. It was confusing though when we entered the gate; we were told that we would be given a code to get in, thinking that after entering the gate code the gate will open. Turns out that security or whoever it was that answered had to let us in. Maybe that needs to be clarified on the instructions. Next time we're in Hawaii we will check this place out for availability.

Great location on the north shore area. Unit was very nice. Clean and well kept. Would recommend to others for sure. My only gripe is the Paul Blart security guy needs to calm down. Scolded my wife for using her e-cigarette. Another person for using the gate incorrectly and also some kids for being too loud in the pool at 5pm. I get that you need rules but he was an abusive bully in all three instances.

We had a wonderful stay here. The place is exactly as described. Location is perfect if you have a rental car as we did. Problems: The air conditioning is only in the bedroom as stated. We tried to blow some of the cold air to the living area but it barely made it there. If you want to cook then the entire place heats up. The dryer vents INTO the apartment which I didn’t realize until I had already washed a load of clothing. We were lucky that we found the security guard on the first day as the gate code we were given did not work. Pros: Central for driving around. Spacious enough for 4 people 2 bathrooms Cute pool Great security people Quiet at night.

The kitchen is well stocked and looks to have been recently remodeled somewhat modestly (formica counter tops) The master shower is very nicely remodeled and the bedroom is spacious, with AC. The sleeper sofa in the living room is horribly uncomfortable. One feels every spring in the mattress. On the second night we discovered a foam mattress topper under the master bed (very dirty) and once added to the sleeper sofa it helped a great deal. Ideally the management company would have made us aware of it's existence since our reservation was for 3 adults and one child. We found no sheets that fit the sleeper sofa but we did find king sized sheet which were used in spite of the size. The location is good, however on Saturday all of the trash bins for the entire complex are lined up just off the lanai where a trash truck spent 30 minutes or so emptying them (very noisy)

The condo was great. Nice location with easy access to beautiful beaches. Very nice to have two baths. Kitchen was stocked with everything that we needed. Only had one problem, we did not understand that the FOB that operated the gate, had to be "waved" by the red light, we thought that it was broken because we were pressing it and it did not work.

It was pretty clean, I guess they can't really help the cockroaches that were around in our bedroom. Everything worked good, maybe another AC unit in the living room would help the humidity, one in the. Edroom was not enough. The fans they have in the living room just blew hot air. Good thing we barely stayed in the condo. The security guys are another story. They really seemed bored especially when they follow you from the time you drive in the gate to your parking spot. Overall I needed somewhere close to my family to stay, this was great and cheap compared to other places.

The location was great for exploring more of Oahu, everything was a short drive. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend this rental for your next stay.

The location is great for North Shore which is so much prettier than Honolulu/Waikiki area. The rental staff was very helpful with their after hours call. But be sure to pick up keys early I arrived at 4:02 at their office after I had called and everybody had left. The condo has very old living furniture and not comfortable to come relax on after a long day. The pull out was more uncomfortable than usual. The description says that the whole unit has A/C. It only has one A/C in the bedroom than cannot cool off the rest of the house so their description is wrong. They threaten to come turn off the a/c when you are out but it would be the only way to keep the room cool. There are no trade winds that come into the condo when I opened the doors. If you use the w/d the whole house heats up and cannot be cooled down again. There is no TV in the bedroom where the A/C is at. No DVD player in the living room. The price is great, nice for 2 people that will sleep comfortably in the master bedroom but if taking kids they will be very unhappy in the living room. Pools were being serviced while we were there so we never checked those out.
