The Ritz-Carlton O‘ahu, Turtle Bay

The Ritz-Carlton O‘ahu, Turtle Bay

10/10 Excellent
"Had an amazing view from my suite. Looked out over the beach and down the coast a ways. Beach was OK, a little small and rocky in spots. Food was really good, especially in the Beach House, but VERY expensive. Be prepared to pay $100 per person at least for dinner, more with cocktails or wine. Really only one breakfast restaurant and the buffet was $55, a plate of eggs, bacon, potatoes and toast: $38. There are a couple of daily charges that I wasn't aware of until I got the bill: something called a resort fee around $50 and another $50 for valet parking. Turtle Bay golf course was one of the best I've ever played, and a pretty good deal at $285. Bring lots of cash or room on your credit card... I suppose it's worth doing at least once"

10/10 Excellent
"This was a perfect place to stay. You walk out the sliding glass doors and are in paradise. It is a short walk to the beach where you have umbrellas and chairs to use. The snorkeling at the bay was unbeatable. We took a trip to Hanauma Bay to snorkel and saw less than we did snorkeling at the villa’s bay. I will never stay anywhere else. Totally worth the money to stay here. "
