Turtle Bay Resort (DNU)

My Husband and I recently stayed 4 nights for our anniversary. This was our first trip to Hawaii and the island and this location did not disappoint. The Ritz carlton turtle bay is in a exquisite location with breathtaking views of the ocean on all sides of the resort. The resort is laid back and relaxing. The staff was amazing and I dont think I have ever met nicer people in my life! The food and service at all the restaurants on the property was awesome and I never ate a bad meal..-ALL DELICIOUS! They have live music nightly with really talented musician's. I have read other reviews that this hotel has changed and now is not as good...please dont listen! This was the best resort I have ever been to , mostly due to the beauty of the resort and the kind people...Mahalo Turtle Bay for memories of a lifetime!

Turtle Bay was beautiful! The hospitality was amazing! It truly gave 5 start service. The views from every angle were incredible. We had the opportunity to experience the sunset luau and it was phenomenal! Learning the history of Hawaii and we really enjoyed the food & show Our favorite restaurant was The Beach House by Roy Yamaguchi. Everything was delicious! The sushi was amazing!

We arrived after long flight and were warmly greeting by valets- they were excellent, friendly and unloaded our car quickly. They remembered us the entire visit. A great crew. The hotel lobby is stunning. The rooms are well. appointed with nice bathrooms. Easy check in and off to the pool. Nice pool with meals and drinks available- all good quality and food arrive promptly. Our servers were all excellent. Our young kids took a surfing lesson- they all were on the board by the end of the lesson and having a great time! The instructors were excellent. They also took pizza making class at the restaurant by the pool and had fun. Pizzas tasted good!.. The beach is beautiful with restaurants and beach service. Again everyone was kind and helpful. A beautiful fun visit with friendly staff everywhere. The valets packed the car, gave us water and wished us well on our travels. .

We stayed at The Ritz-Carlton Turtle Bay in July with extended family and had the pleasure of staying in a 4-bedroom beach villa. The villa was beautifully designed, spacious, and featured a well-equipped kitchen—perfect for cooking meals together. The resort grounds are immaculate, and the beachfront is ideal for relaxing or snorkeling just steps from the shore. It’s a peaceful and scenic setting that really enhances the experience. The pool areas were a hit with both kids and adults—there are designated pools for families and for guests 18 and older. They can get a bit crowded during peak hours, so it’s a good idea to claim chairs early in the day. Dining throughout the resort was great. We used our daily room credits for breakfast, which was convenient and a nice way to grab food on the go. The market on-site was well stocked with essentials and snacks. Overall, the resort is very family-friendly and provided a fantastic setting for our multi-generational trip. We’re already looking forward to coming back!

Stayed 3 nights in an ocean view king with sofabed which was plenty big for our family of 3. The balconies on beach side are smaller than the pool side (also ocean front) but just big enough to sit two and quieter. Ice and filtered water on every floor and they give you two refillable water bottles and a mini fridge. Very relaxing resort coming off a few days staying in Waikiki. Never had to worry about finding chairs at the beach or pool. And the grounds are lovely for walks or finding a hammock by the ocean. Really appreciated the complimentary bikes. Can take out and explore for an hour and there’s 12 miles of trails including along coast and the stables nearby. Food is expensive. Breakfast buffet at $52 and most dishes in the $30 zone. But views are nice and didn’t have to worry about waiting for a table. The Beach House by Roy’s was tasty with good portions and service but expectedly expensive. Gym was really nice. Overlooks ocean. Would consider coming back on an extended trip to Oahu as a complement to Waikiki.
