Turtle Bay Resort
I am planning a couple of days on Oahu, and want to stay on the north shore. I found a good price at the Turtle Bay Resort, but have heard that it's gotten rather shabby. Can anyone give me an up-to-date report on it? or any suggestions for other places (under $150/night) on the north side?

I stayed here last August at the tale end of Hilton ownership. It does seem a bit older than HHV, decor and restaurants are not same calibor. Although I was not entirely thrilled with the rooms at HHV either (rainbow tower). BUT if you get the hilton expectation out of your head I had a great time here. The location is wonderful, horseback riding on the beach is great. I would certainly go back. Most rooms face ocean with a lanai, not crowded even in August. They also had a make over last year so it should be even better this year.
Remember when you stay at this end of the island you are coming to explore nature not neccearily lounge by the pool all day. You have some incredible outdoor activity here and this hotel makes it more assesible than if you are staying 45 minutes away in Waikiki.

Can't comment on Turtle Bay Resort (though we did see the grounds and they were lovely) but there are no other resorts on the north/windward sides. That said, we LOVED the North Shore. Low-key and relaxing, and Turtle Bay is near the most awesomely beautiful end of the windward shore. I'd go back in a heartbeat. We rented a cottage for our stay.....
