Kuilima Estates
Kuilima estates is a great location on the North Shore area that we staycation at without paying hotel fees. This unit does need to updated and there is a little ant problem but being from Oahu it didn’t bother us much. This unit is an end unit is a up/downstairs unit which is great and the pool 15 yards away that my kids love. Pool has a grill area and you’ll meet locals and tourists whom are always friendly.

June 2023 stay
The check in and checkout was very easy. There were no major issues and we absolutely enjoyed our stay. The proximity to LeiLei's was wonderful and it was a quick and very pleasant walk to the beach. My only suggestions are for for the appearance of the condo. The condo's interior is showing its age and could be refreshed. The previous reviews state that the carpet is clean but worn, and we found that to be the case. The screen doors on the lanai were warped and constantly fell off their tracks, which made it difficult to enter and exit that part of the condo. The drapes in the living room did not draw back very far, blocking the beautiful view of the Fazio course and the many rainbows which occurred throughout the day. It would also be helpful to label the light switches in the living room. All in all these were relatively minor and we would definitely use this rental agency and condo again.

Memories Made
The condo was lovely and clean. It was such a treat to make family memories. We're a kamaaina family from Kaneohe, so the weather was "delicious.
Suggestions: Sharpen knives; maybe air in the loft; visit rear sliding doors as they kept coming of the tracks.
Thanks so very much. Patti M.

The rental was perfect for what we came home for. Coming home to Kahuku is always a pleasure. The property was very clean. Property Management company was very helpful and nice. Shame on the previous renters who didn't report the broken dishwasher. But other than that, I would recommend it, to others.

Beautiful Location with everything Needed
We arrived on property via the given directions with little challenge. We arrived after dark so finding our villa number was a bit challenging due to lack of lighting but we did it. A porch light being left on would have been helpful. Our villa was set up as stated and we were excited to settle and explore. Every bed was used by our party of 6 and more comfortable beds was everyones' request/desire. We had full days of beach and activity so we fell in to bed every night good and tired. I worked with a rental company as an inspector and was responsible for being sure everything was clean and welcoming for incoming guests. I didnt get that welcoming feeling since the pillows on the sofa were out of place and not fluffed and freshened and the twin beds in loft were a bit disheveled. The arms of the chair were quite soiled and is such an easy spot clean that didnt happen. The sofa was super comfortable and loved by all. The installed ceiling fans need attention too on cleanliness and function. It just didnt feel like it was known for months we were coming and rental company checked everything the day or two before our arrival to be sure everything was fresh, clean and ready. Our key FOB wasn't in the villa either but a phone call fixed that with ease and getting in the gate prior to getting FOB was not a problem. A Welcome note on the counter would have been a nice touch. We are a very laid back family and we were happy there and did not complain. I am sharing here so the rental company/owners can improve if they wish to. The location is spectacular and we walked to the resort every morning for coffee and amazing views. It is a nice villa that needs just a bit of TLC and attention to make it a GREAT villa but it did have everything we needed and we would all stay there again. Oahu is a special magical place and we went to several different beaches during our 10 day stay and visited several food trucks and hiked. We will return!

Pretty great place
We had 2 condos right next to each other, which helped our large family stay connected. The Bird of Paradise was a lot nicer than the Hale Lily next door. Bird of Paradise felt very homey and comfortable. The bedroom carpets are pretty old and stained but they didn't feel dirty, the bathrooms were very dated. The kitchen is nice, very spacious and had everything we needed, but the Hamilton Beach blender was gutless, so if you're into smoothies... it's a major challenge. We called the office about a few issues which were resolved immediately. This was very impressive. We loved all the space in the entry to drop our bags and shoes. And the storage shelves in the entry were super helpful for organizing everyone. There is an air conditioner in each bedroom and if you put a fan in front of it you can blow the cold air into the main areas. We were there at the end of August and it was very hot. This method was particularly important for the people sleeping in the loft. The back patio was enclosed and there were a lot of beach items like chairs, umbrella, snorkel set, sand toys. We really appreciated these items. This condo was nice because it was on the end of the row and there was an extra window on that wall that let in nice light. The swimming pool is a quick walk down the sidewalk, literally just a few condo’s away. Our parking spot was right in front of our condo. Overall the condo was a bit dated, but still comfortable, especially the living room. The beds were pretty comfortable and the closet organizers were so helpful to make it feel like home. We would drive down to the free parking at Turtle Bay beach to swim and snorkel, and walk around the beautiful hotel lobby, also the restaurants are really nice. The location is close to food trucks and grocery stores in Laie and then the other direction is Sunset Beach, Waimea Bay and Haleiwa town which has great restaurants and shopping. You can’t beat the Turtle Bay location.

Spring Break 2023
We have stayed at 3 different units at Kuilima Estates over the past 10 years. We "thought" we had reserved a different unit for this year, but were pleasantly surprised with Unit 21 Bird of Paradise. It was by far the most well appointed unit to date. Ample closet space and shelving, additional bedding and pillows in case we needed to change beds, ample dishes, beach chairs, pool towels. The bedrooms both had window air conditioning units that cooled the room nicely as well as ceiling fans throughout the unit. There was a standing fan for each space. The bathrooms both had a tub/shower combo. There was only some dated wear'n tear in the bathrooms, the rest of the unit was clean and updated. These are 1970's units in their original appointment. There has obviously been paint and flooring that has been updated, but you get what you pay for. If you want NEW then pay the $800+/night for a resort room. These units have always been the perfect fit for our family. We spend each day at a beach somewhere, eat in the Turtle Bay restaurants (all within walking distance) and enjoy the Kuilima Cove. Thank you for another awesome Spring Break in Hawaii!

no resort amenities included
Aside from the comfort that the unit we stayed in provided, we were displeased with the lack of access to the resort's spa and pool services.
We were pleased with the food at the Palm Terrece but the service was atrocious! The servers were unprofessional, lacked customer service and were very nonchalant.
The only pleasant people were working at your guard shack and running the carts back and forth the property.
I will not use your services in the future.

Great location and fairly nice unit. The kids enjoyed the pool, beach and horseback riding. The boys enjoyed the golf course view and the rounds. A/C units were a little loud though. I'd diffinately stay in this unit again. Much Mahalo's for our weekend getaway!

I filled out the comment sheet which my husband returned with the keys. The location of the unit was perfect, however the unit itself needs a lot of work. I didn't want to sit on the couch the cushions looked so dirty. The outlet @ the end of the kitchen counter did not work. The dwnstr. bath toilet howled for quite awhile when flushed. the Bdrm door squeeked. The dwnstr bdrm smelled mouldy, the comforter and shams needed washing. The ceiling fan blades were covered in dust. The unit needs repair and cleaning. Our friends booked 012, after us. It is by far a MUCH BETTER unit w/ the same great location. I was told that 021 was one of the best. This was untrue, and especially bothersome because the better unit was booked after our booking and for the same price. In the future I plan to request 012! I would like to review what I have written, but there isn't a way to scroll back!?!?

Turtle Bay Bird of Paradise
I like the location and size of the unit for our family of five. I only gave 3 starts for condition of property b/c I think a few things need to be updated from the owners: 1) the curtain was ripped in the living room, 2) I think the bedroom furniture, esp. in the master, could be upgraded and3) the beds and bedding really need to be upgraded the master bed was so hard my mom had to bring a foam top from home (she lives on the island). I really do like this unit and do hope the owners consider making the few upgrades - I plan on renting it again next summer. Mahalo.

It was sometimes very hard to get in and out of the property by car. The condo slept 6 but they only had one gate key per condo. My husband encountered a very rude employee when he tried to get in and didn't have the gate card.

My Stay at Turtle Bay
I would probably not choose this location again and would not recommend it. The complex was nice, we had a pleasant view. Access to the beach was a little difficult. I thought it was ridiculous that you had to not only pay for a court time for the tennis courts but had to pay a ridiculous rental fee of rackets! The staff in the office were friendly and helpful but the rental home was gross! It was NOT clean at all! Not even vacuumed properly. Hair and sand covered the bathroom sink. The kitchen floor was filthy. Ants were crawling all over the dining table. The loft was INCREDIBLY hot. Very uncomfortable to sleep. The air conditioners in the bedrooms were nice to have. There were spiders (yes plural) crawling all over the master bed. There were used pacifiers left on the book shelf. Mold was growing in the master bath ceiling. The shower was filthy! The whole unit needs a fresh coat of paint! This place was WAY over-priced! I was thoroughly disgusted! I would never stay here again and NEVER recommend it to anyone! I was grateful we only spent two nights here and that we were gone most of the time!

comfortable property
I would stay there again. If I could ask a favor to the cleaning crew who cleans the property before a guest checks in, I would ask her to report all broken items to the maintenance right away. As soon as we moved in, the closet door did not work. The bathroom's sink's stopper did not work and could use it until it was repaired.

DAD'S 60TH BIRTHDAY
MY HUSBAND TURNED 60 IN AUGUST SO INSTEAD OF HAVING A BIG PARTY THE KIDS AND I DECIDED TO HAVE A TURTLE BAY GETAWAY FOR HIM, AND OF COURSE, US. OUR BOYS WERE 26 AND 27 AT THE TIME AND BOTH AVID GOLFERS LIKE THEIR DAD SO WE PACKED UP THE GRANDKIDS AND SPENT 3 BEAUTIFUL DAYS IN YOUR CONDO. THE CONDO WAS PERFECT AND EVERYONE HAD THEIR OWN SPACE IT WAS CLEAN AND WELL EQUIPPED AND BEST OF ALL CENTRALLY LOCATED WITH WALKING DISTANCE TO THE GOLF COURSE, LEI LEI'S RESTAURANT, AND THE POOL AT THE CONDO COMPLEX.
I WOULD SAY THE ONLY COMPLAINTS WE HAD WERE THAT THERE WASN'T A KING SIZED BED DOWN STAIRS AND WE AREN'T RATTAN DECOR PEOPLE AND PREFER A COMFY SOFA, BUT OTHER THAN THAT IT WAS GREAT. WE GO TO TURTLE BAY AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR, SOMETIMES TWICE AND ALWAYS STAY IN THE 'S PEACEFUL AND RELAXING, THAT'S WHY WE CALLED IT OUR GETAWAY.

Nice to have a dishwasher and front room air conditioner is nice.
Kitchen - only 2 burners worked. Coffee machine did not work. Sure could use better circulation -- loft too hot to sleep, whole downstairs too hot.
--> Back sliding screens not functioning, one falls off. Finally found one of 3 that would slide.

Our stay in Hawaii was wonderful and the Turtle Bay Estates complex was beautiful. Our group traveled to Oahu to attend a family wedding and together we rented four units in the Turtle Bay Resort. I can't comment on the other units I would like to offer the following on unit 21 west.
Generally the unit was very nice but upon arrival we found the first floor bedroom bedding to be disgusting with what appeared to be fecal matter on the bedspread and discovery of used tissues between the sheets. While we called and the bedding was changed by your staff the situation presented the potential to transmit disease to everyone that stayed in that unit. This matter alone made me question the cleanliness to the entire unit and frankly put a damper on the entire stay. What is the cleaning fee for if not cleaned?
First impression; a failing grade.
Additionally, entry to the complex through the gated driveway was at best inconvenient. Only one pass card per unit was available. Several of the attendants suggested that a visit to the Sugar Mill Office would enable me to get a second pass card but when I visited the office I was told there were none available. Calling the unit to have someone buzz the gate only works if someone is available in the unit to do so. Fifty per cent of the time there was no attendant in the booth and when there was an attendant one of them told me it was my responsibility to gain entry and stood there and watched repeated attempts to contact a unit where no one was available to answer the phone.

Condo 21 Kuilima West Estates
Overall it was very enjoyable. It was a little annoying being told there were too many people in the swimming pool area (25 max) which meant some people had to vacate the pool. The wifi was very unreliable, and it wasn't 100% clear that the key should have been dropped off at the sugar mill office even on Sundays / Public holidays at check-out. It would be a lot clearer if the instructions specified that there is a safe drop box there for out of office departure times.
The condo got very hot, the aircon was only in the rooms (and it was great) but it was difficult to keep the rest of the space cool. The only other slight difficulty was the fact that the condo was very bright and light by 5.30am, so it was tricky to keep our toddler asleep.
Overall the condo was clean, well appointed, comfortable, and the location was great. Thanks for having us.

Overall OK. it was not super clean (hair ball in the master shower drain, hair on the bathroom floor). The dryer vent was not connected so it ran into the condo making it very hot.
Asking the renters to come to the management company to check in and out is an unnecessary hassle for the customer.
