Nova Vacation Homes in Hawaii

“We like to cook most of our meals, so we really appreciated the fully equipped kitchen ( they even had a blender), and the spacious lanai was the perfect place to enjoy them. There were two nice beach chairs for our use, along with a Tommy Bahama umbrella and beach towels. The location was only one short block to Kuhio beach and Moku surf shop was right next door for rentals. One more block away, on the corner of Kuhio street is the best poke bowls in town, a place called Maguro Spot. A few blocks west on Kuhio at the International Marketplace, there's a Target store, which had the most reasonable grocery prices. The building itself was very quiet, although Waikiki is a noisy place, especially the daily early morning garbage trucks, but the large sliding door blocks everything and the AC worked well.”

“Die Unterkunft war im grossen und ganzen angenehm, ruhige Umgebung und sehr nette Nachbarn. Das einzige was wir zu bemängeln haben ist die Sauberkeit. Man merkte das der Boden seit längerem nicht nass aufgenommen wurde, die Küchenschränke waren schmutzig, im Kühlschrank gab es Fliegen. Schlafzimmer und Badezimmer waren aber sauber.”

“Great place overall! A lot of seating outside, front or back. Really peaceful. No AC but if you are staying for a long time plan ahead for that. There were quite a bit of bugs, but I think because of all of the greenery. If you want to feel the sea breeze you have to have the front and back door open but it helps. Overall space, size, peacefulness it meets expectations. Just get bug zappers to take care of the rest. I would go back.”

“We had a great stay! Highly recommend!”

“Turtle Bay is a good location to stay on the North Shore if you want to get away from the crowds in Waikiki. We really didn’t use any of the amenities outside of just enjoying how well manicured the whole area was. We loved walking around the Ritz Carlton Hotel and there are outdoor showers and some public bathrooms at Turtle Bay that are very nice to have. This condo is about as far away from the water as you can get in the resort so If you are planning on a day at the bay I would recommend driving up and parking in one of the public parking spots to the east of the hotel. They had a few beach toys we could use which was nice but they could upgrade the beach chairs. We had a rental car so we were able to go and explore the island everyday. This is close to several food truck options a few miles away but make sure you go early as most things close early. Overall it was a nice location.”
