The place was perfect for 2 people, very quiet, loved sleeping with the doors open (screens closed) at night and listening to the trees, the rain and the ocean. Plenty of towels. Location was perfect. It was very safe. The ice cube trays leak and are creating a little sheet of ice in the freezer - just a heads up to the owners/property managers. We will stay again.

Ice trays replaced.

It was very clean and has been taken care of. It is in a great location on the north shore and at Turtle Bay. We received great service as we arrived and lights were on and apprecited the kindness of those we spoke with. The owners of the condo downstairs were gracious and were very helpful. The condo was the right size for us. It had everything that you would want - location and was on the north shore. The bed was very comfortable. The ceiling was too low and and had to bend over to walk around. The bed did make up any disadvantage of the low ceiling. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants a comfortable and affordable quality place to stay.

We did like the unit, and our stay, but didn't fully understand why we HAD to do the dishwasher and start the cleaning of the towels, if we also have a cleaning FEE that we paid when we booked our stay.

Tina B., Ewa Beach, HI, 11.16.11

Comment by Owner/Manager:

You were not required to do anything, it is suggested to run the dishwasher so we do not get ants. As for the towels, some guests leave wet towels on furniture or on the carpet and if the cleaners are not in within 5 or 6 hours they will start to get mildew. These are suggestions and most guests are more than happy to do this. The cleaning fee is very reasonable and our crew spends hours cleaning up after guests not including the extra time for laundry.

This unit is located in a beautiful landscape witgh lush vegetation and flowers. The night is quiet and only interrupted by the clear sky, the stars and the sound of the ocean. The customer service for rental and settling in to this unit was great. My wife and I enjoyed our stay at Turtle Bay...Wew have stayed in Wakakii a number of times, but prefer the North Shore area better.

Harry Y., Lebanon, TN, 10.16.11

I liked the location it was easy to drive to all the places around the north shore. The best part of our trip was snorkeling at Shark's cove. The best restaurant we found close to the condo was Leonardo's at the Turtle Bay Resort.

Deanna S., Minneapolis, MN, 8.31.11

We liked the location on the #1 fairway of the Fazio course, and short walk to Lei Lei's. Turtle Bay Resort area is very nice and you can use all of their facilities except their pool. Golf is one of the main reasons we stay in this area, and you get resort pricing when staying in the condos. Allthough the weather was not the greatest this time, it certainly lead us to alot of naps and island travel we would not have normally done. Many good restaurants in the area. Our favorites were Lei Lei's at the golf course. Ian and staff are very welcoming and the food is special. Also, a favorite is Jameson's by the Sea in Haleiwa. Start at the bar with Matt (Bartender) and finish with dinner outside on the rail watching the sunset. Many other decent places to eat at all $ levels, but these were our favorites. The Hang Ten bar at the resort pool is great for sunsets and drinks. The unit is small and we suggest to limit it to two adults if possible. Bedroom is in a loft and ceiling is a bit low. Took some getting used to. This unit absolutely filled our needs and expectations. Any complaints we would have would just be petty and not worth mentioning. Best tip: Golf price in the mornings for the two courses are Fazio = $70 and Palmer = $140. Play the Fazio for $70 and then pay the $35 (not posted) for replay on Palmer. That's right folks, two courses, 36 holes, for $105. We enjoyed ourselves for two weeks. Allthough we normally stay in the resort, this experience has got us thinking of a better way to go. Would do this again, but in a larger unit next year. Jeri and Marc were super nice. Bill & Dani

William B., Saugus, CA, 5.16.11

Nice unit and a beautiful location. Enjoyed the beach & nearby North Shore amenities. Very little in the way of customer service....perhaps a binder with more information or a phone call would be helpful. Loved the surf pictures. The middle of the night trips to the bathroom from the loft might be a bit much for older couples or those with disabilities.

Dennis B., Eugene, OR, 2.14.11

Had a great stay - quiet and scenic - excellent waves too!!

Gary W., Huntington Beach, Ca, 1.11.11

We had great time in Oahu while stayed at Kuilima Estates 48W. Fully equiped the property was our house during 2 weeks.Thanks a lot!

Marcelo Jose B., So Paulo, So Paulo, 11.21.10

Everything worked out very smooth, from scheduling the unit to the time I left. The unit was very clean and stocked with the essentials. The grounds were beautiful and much improved from the last time I stayed. I will continue to stay at this proerty in the future!

Scott H., St. George, Utah, 9.30.10

The grounds of the estate were immaculate. The staff did an wonderful job of keeping everything neat and clean. The office staff was very friendly and helpful. Because of our schedule we arrived well after midnight. The gentleman that came out to meet us was very nice, especially since we had to call him to the gate at such a late hour. Our condo was very clean when we arrived. It is such a relief after a long trip (4000+ miles all the way from Michigan) to find such a nice home away from home. We enjoyed every day of the 2 weeks we spent there. Our only regret is we couldn't stay longer!

Paul T., South Branch, Mi, 4.2.10

The unit was well kept clean, and some gears for the beaches was really nice. Also there was a lot of beautiful pictures on the wall, and I was interested in how to shoot them.

Takashi M., Machida, Tokyo, 10.6.09

we liked kuilima estates because of the convenience of being able to cook, make coffee, wash our clothes, nice warm showers, and how quiet and peaceful the surroundings were. we liked the convenience of the beach being so close by and the upkeep of the property was very nice. we would stay there again. mr. and mrs. arthur flohr

Art F., North LasVegas, Nevada, 6.18.09

We had a terrific two-week holiday on Oahu. The Kuilima Estates was very nice. The pool was nice and close. The customer service from Hawaaiian Beach Rentals was excellent. We used to live on Oahu, and couldn't imagine spending a vacation on Oahu in a tiny hotel room in Waikiki. So, the unit we rented was very nice. It was great to be able to explore the North Shore, although the frequent drives we took to visit the south shore and Honolulu attractions became a little long. The unit was nicely decorated. We loved the many surfing pictures on the wall. The bed was comfortable.

Michael B., Salt Lake City, UT, 1.9.09

My wife and I absolutely loved this place. The kitchen allowed us to cook, the living room had a beautiful view, and the loft was great. It is on the North Shore, where it was slow and quiet. Thanks

Mikhail O., Santa Clara, CA, 8.20.08

Kulima Estates 48W was great for two people. Very clean and efficient. I would definitely stay here again. Hawaii is the best vacation place in the world!

Keith I., Greenwood, IN, 2.4.08

What I liked best about the unit I rented was location. It was close to many beaches for beautiful sunsets. It was easty to visit all the areas of Oahu, yet return to a quiet condo located on the beautiful golf course of Turtle Bay. Walking distance to the Turtle Bay resort with many fine restaurants, bargs, and ocean views.

Aloha! We loved our stay at Kuilima estates and the North Shore!! we went there to relax and we did. Turtle Bay resort is really nice too and we have access to all there installations except the pool! Customer service is excellent! Next time I go there...I want to surf!! Mahalo

Melanie T., Ste-Thérèse, Qc, 9.26.07

* Mark & Jeri were very cool folks...they were very helpful and answered all the crazy questions we asked them. * Customer Service we received pretty much everywhere on the island was fabulous! Everyone were all very friendly. * The best part of my(our) trip was enjoying the beautiful beaches, basking in the sun and relaxing. * The best restaurant - well it was Giovanni's Shrimp Truck by far! The Shrimp Scampi is to die for!!! * The best picture I took of me (us) pretty much everywhere - there are so many beautiful spots to take the perfect photo. * I can't wait to tell all my friends that....we'll be back again in the next year or two! * The advice to someone else staying at this unit would be that you can relax and not stress about other guests bothering you or whatever - you have a lot of privacy. * The best "insider tip" I received while on my trip was where to go, what time to go and not go. * I didn't have time this trip, but next trip to Hawaii I'm looking forward to...hiking Diamond Head, Parasailing, Canoeing, Kayaking and so much more. Thank you for a wonderful stay. Gerbielyn & Miguel Prieto

GERBIELYN V., RENTON, WA, 9.5.07

We were very impressed with the condo in general ( location, security, comfort and the response from your staff). We went to pick up our son that graduated from BYU Hawaii so it was very convenient to go to campus and to go to the beaches on the North shore. We enjoyed the restaurants on Turtle Bay, mainly the Sunday buffet. We also tried the Acai bowl right across the street from Foodland. We went to Haleiwa to eat and to go on a deep sea fishing. My husband and son caught two Wahoos. We already referred the Kuilima Estates to our friends that are going to Laie in October. Thank you very much for everything and we hope to go back in a near future. Ester Golladay

Ester G., Mesa, AZ, 6.27.07

The Unit is in an excellent location, very close to the Turtle Bay Resort at the beautiful North Shore of Oahu.

Patricia T., TUSTIN, CA, 5.11.07

We really enjoyed our stay! Thanks

Rosalia I., Layton, Ut, 4.20.07

we had a lovely stay at Kuilima and enjoyed everything..our unit was lovely my only concern there was the patio screen liked to come off the tracks as they so often do...the pool and day of golf were wonderful Mahalo for you hospitality

Diana S., Captain Cook, HI, 11.20.06

Can't wait to come back! Loved it! Mahalo...

Christine M., Kapaa, Hawaii, 11.17.06

We had a truely great week. If you really want to enjoy Oahu, this is the only place to stay. The North Shore is where everyone wants to go, but if you stay in Waikiki, you have to drive for an hour or more to get here. We had breakfast at Ted's bakery hours of snorkeling in at Shark's Cove, Waimea Bay and Three Tables before the city crowd arrived. Clean secure unit on the grounds of the Turtle Bay Hilton. We will stay there again.

Mark M., Sugar Land, Texas, 7.8.06

Kuilima Estates was very nice. We had a peaceful and relaxing trip. If returning to Hawaii we would definitely consider staying again.

Kristina M., Orange, CA, 6.1.06

We had a great time and liked the rental a lot! We definitely plan to return!

Rob B., Lehi, UT, 2.22.06

We loved staying at Kuilima Estatess #48W. The place had just been updated and the furnishings were just perfect! Very hip and comfortable. Loved being able to use the Turtle Bay Resort but not pay the extravagant prices to stay there! A perfect vacation. I highly recommend!!! Thanks,Kelly & Doug - Atlanta, GA February 2006
