    Great hotel, avoid rooms near the central lifts, they’re loud at night. Restaurants are over priced, but the sunset bar has a great cheaper menu. The view from sunset point at sundown is incredible!

    One of the greatest hotels I've stayed in. Staff is great pool is awesome and the seating overlooking the surfers makes this a truly awesome hotel. No longer a Hilton property for years.

    Relaxing? Enjoy the salt water pool, or the complimentary beach loungers. If you are interested in fitness, Nalu Kinetic Fitness facility is state of the art and looks over the majestic ocean.

    Is in the other side of the island very far from the crowed of Waikiki, the restaurant by the beach is my favorite they make the best burger. Make sure you validate your parking pass at the restaurant

    Staff is overly nice. Large pool area, usually with a fair amount of kids. Numerous restaurant options, all of which are overpriced. Constant wind and big waves, look out for afternoon surfers.

    Hit up Ola for lunch & drinks for cheapest drinks and food. On Sunday @ 6 fire dancers will start at hang ten by the pool. Head south of resort tobeach to the south of the resort to spot turtles

    Finally a place with Wi-Fi that actually works! It seems every room has its own router + all over the place, every restaurant, every bar. Wi-Fi even works at the beach, just barely.

    Even if you don't stay at the resort, come to enjoy the gorgeous sunsets and watch the surfers ride the waves in Kawela Bay.

    North Shore is the place to be, yes it's a resort, but it has nice areas you can walk to and have your own private beach. Way better than Aulani Disney Resort

    Avoid the overpriced food and drive 16 minutes to Papa Ole. Get the garlic chicken and shrimp and short rib dish!

    Find a set of restrooms and a bar at the beach to the right of the main hotel bldg which would be to the left of this pic ;)

    The swim area of the beach can get crowded during the day. There is a lot of coral. Beach stretches to your right behind the green hut another mile. Cabanas $50-75/first come, first serve.

    You will accumulate a big bill but a great property! Sunrises and sunsets are free!

    You can get drinks at the shop by the pool and it is half the price as the restaurant and pool drinks. Wish I knew that at the beginning of our trip.

    Right now our Spa is being renovated but there is still awesome services available. You get 15% off treatments/massages and 10% off hair and nails until the reno is complete!

    Very nice resort. The cottages are very comfortable and right next to the ocean. Excellent staff and service.

    Great resort with nice restaurants and outstanding location. Off the beaten path, but they work hard to make the trip enjoyable.

    Must do the fruit market a couple blocks north. Really cheap fruit just picked from the on site farm. Also great lunch meals.

    It's an hours outside of town but perfect place to get away. The staff is awesome and you can check in about 11am

    The best thing about this hotel isn't the beach, or the golf course, or the hammocks or the Mai tais, it's the staff. Friendliest people I've ever met. Come to turtle bay, you won't regret it.

    Nicest rooms I've ever stayed in on Oahu (better than a corner Hilton room and the Outrigger Reef), but the dining here is a step below.Ola is overpriced for what you get, but the view is to die for!

    You're in for a great vacation! This is one of the best resorts on Oahu. Relaxing, beautiful, away from the crowds and traffic of Waikiki.

    The oceanside horseback ride is a MUST! Do NOT miss it. It's worth the money.

    If you want a good meal, don't go to the hotel! Go to Lei Lei's or Ola's. If you want an amazing Martini, see Allie at 21 Degrees. The Bay Club is fun for late night drink with friends.

    The best hotel on the north shore. Don't valet your car. Free parking in the lots.

    Palm Terrace for buffet brekky is really good. Decent omelet chef & good variety of food for $26pp. Why are all the staff so old & sad though :<

    Check out the blow hole and walk around the grounds. There is a sitting area by the hole to look at the waves crash on the rocks.

    Pool is fantastic! Don't use your personal towel. They will ask you to leave if you aren't staying there.

    Grab a towel, drink & your camera! Sit & watch the surfers catch big waves around 5ish behind the pool area, starting at the bay that feeds out into the ocean.

    I suggest looking for local places to eat unless you're willing to spend $60 for mediocre breakfast (for 2.) Dinner was better but still a Lil pricey. Other than that, the resort is incredible.

    Great fun especially if you surf. Themain dining room sucks. Go see Virginia at the coffee cart and she will hook you up with coffee and fruit/muffins/salads. Nearby shrimp trucks are great

    The north side of the island is very windy (from the Trade Winds) so you may want to bring a jacket

    Place is in need of a facelift. Food is expensive & service is very average. But you do get good access to beaches on both east & west side. And unlike other resorts, the sun beds are free to use.
