TURTLE BAY RESORT

Up until recently, this was really the only hotel in the area. Turtle Bay is a large, beautiful resort on the northern tip of Oahu. It is about a 12-15 minute drive from BYU-Hawaii campus. Accommodations include the main hotel, as well as nearby beachfront condos. There are many more amenities on-site and prices range higher than the Marriott. Turtle Bay’s main site is here.

Also near Turtle Bay are a large number of privately-owned condos in what is known as Kulima Estates.

AIRBNB, VRBO

There are a large number of vacation rentals in Laie and the surrounding areas: Hauula and Kahuku (closest), as well as Punaluu, Kaaawa, Sunset, Pupukea. Airbnb and VRBO are two of the main sites for finding these properties. Other less official channels include Craigslist, Facebook, and (if you are booking without the safeguards of sites like Airbnb, please use caution and common sense). Some properties want you to book for a week, some will book for single nights. Options range from large beachfront homes to small studio apartments attached to someone’s residence.
