The condo was clean and Kyle was highly responsive
Good location, host and amenities.
Great family vacation spot close to the ocean would have loved it more if it was taken better care of as the photos showed. Overall loved the condo would stay again owner was great and was quick to respond to my emails thank you
The property was in a great location, very close to Turtle Bay and surrounding towns. We weren’t in the condo much (why be there when you can be on the beach and explore the North Shore?), which is why we didn’t mind the following small annoyances:-Hot at nights, even with the screen doors open, fans going and the small a/c unit on (which never got cold, just kinda cool),-Only three small rolls of TP for a family for 6 days (we had to buy more), one garbage bag for the kitchen and one for the bathroom (we had to buy more), only one kitchen rag, no laundry soap (even though it was requested that we throw the towels in the washer when we checked out)Other than those issues, we loved our stay and realized it’s not a perfect place, but was a lot cheaper than most other condos in that area. Mahalo!
The location of this accomodation was beyond our expectations for our dream holiday to Hawaii. The owner was so helpful and made our stay very memorable, even when we checkout out late due to a booking error he was so kind and respectful to deal with and I
The accommodations were acceptable. The floor was not clean. The fridge is rusty. Do's and don'ts are off putting as well as nickel and diming on the hydro for example. Some of the issues (stove element) were mentioned in reviews almost 3 years ago. He says he's doing repairs and renos but clearly nothing is happening. You get what you pay for. Don't expect luxury accommodations for the low price. Ending on a positive note, it was a gated community and there were lots of amenities. Location is great for covering a lot of Oahu outside of Honolulu.
The apartment has a lot of space and many equipment like in the kitchen and beach stuff. It is great located. Unfortunately the sheets of our pillows weren't really clean at our arrival. After texting and speaking to Kyle at the phone he didn't give a solution and said the pillows are washed and we should not expext a luxury resort. We think it is normal to expect clean sheets in every hotel/hostel/etc. We took our towels over the pillows to feel comfortable. The check in was flexible and easy. There a many many many instructions about the apartment, what is allowed and not, what is broken and should not be used, what costs extra... some things could be more taken care of or repaired. It seems that there isn't lot of interest to invest in things. The dishwaser must not be used at our stay and is going to be exchanged only when new cabinets are bought.. the light in the bathroom turns off every 3 minutes.. all in all it was a good stay but it could be improved for the future guests.
Great locaton to visit NorthShore.
Great area, near many activities, as well as a beautiful walk to Turtle Bay. Few minutes drive to beaches, food trucks, Foodland, Polynesian Culture Centre.Beautiful stay
Price reflected the quality of the property, definitely in need of an update.
This VRBO rental had some positive aspects, such as its proximity to the beaches and being located in a secure gated community. However, our overall experience was extremely disappointing due to the condition of the property and the host’s behavior.The property itself is rundown and in need of significant repairs. During our stay, insects got into our food, which was very unpleasant. Additionally, the rental was poorly stocked—there was only one roll of toilet paper for our entire stay, and no bath soap or body wash was provided.The host was the biggest issue. Two days before check-in, he sent us an overwhelming list of strict rules, including not staining the towels, not running the air conditioner during the day, and limiting laundry use. He also double-booked our last day and pressured us to leave early, which we reluctantly did.To make matters worse, after our stay, the host attempted to charge us an extra 3 per day for electricity, claiming we exceeded his estimated usage. He also repeatedly hassled my wife about a payment she had already made, forcing her to send multiple screenshots as proof.While the location is great, the poor condition of the property and the host’s unprofessional behavior made this a terrible experience. I would strongly recommend avoiding this rental—it’s not worth the stress and frustration.
Clean and quiet, suited our needs wellA bit older but adequateNot really suited for 4 to sleep, better for 2 maybe 3 people
Relaxing. Close to golfing and the ocean.
Comfortable and convenient.
It was a pretty good stay. Great location and the place is clean. Just wish the screendoors were not broken so we could have opened those a lot more easily. Other things need to be fixed as well that the owner is aware of like the dishwasher.
Location on island is perfect.
The place was perfect and I think better than described.
Great location on North Shore. Accommodations were adequate and comfortable. Very enjoyable stay!
My kids loved this condo too much, they didn’t want to leave. The owner is prompt and easy to contact when needed.
This property was disappointing in several ways. The Dish Washer didnt work. The stove top was dirty and thappliances l couch we broken down.
Our stay was wonderful, the condo was as advertised, it's a great location, and the host was very helpful and responsive. Would stay again for sure!
Amazingly close to all places on the north shore and seafood restaurant near by!
Location was perfect in the north shore area and very convenient to access the pool, tennis court, and nearby beaches. I had no issues communicating with the owner; he was great and was responsive. The checking-in process went smooth and it had everything I needed during my stay. A few things in the condo needed to be fixed, but Kyle is aware of it. During my stay (beginning of Sept.), the weather was pretty hot and air wasn't flowing at all through the condo. However, the AC in the bedroom helped alot. Overall, great place. I would recommend and would stay there again. Thanks Kyle!
Location was perfect to everything in North shore, tennis, pool and beach all within walking distance. Owner was great and responsive. Would use again and highly recommend.

The neighborhood was perfect and there were several food trucks avaible within a 10 to 15 min drive. The stay was clean but it does feel like an update might be needed. The shower was amazing. It had a washer and dryer which was useful. AC unit was only in the room which was fine for us since we were out and about most of the time. The owner answered all of my questions and was always prompt. Overall, it was a good experience without complaints.

Property is part of a large resort that is located at Turtle Bay. Lots of restaurants to choose from and perfectly located for golfing and swimming ... all within walking distance from the unit. The condo itself is adequate and the owner is pleasant and attentive ... but overall the condo is very 'tired' ... appliances are old and rusty, new comfortable couch would be welcome ... laundry closet was covered in mold, Louvre windows need servicing as only half opens in bedroom and living room. Overall though, we really enjoyed our time at Kawela Bay.
