Turtle Bay Resort, Oahu - WDYT of this deal?
From LivingSocial (http://www.livingsocial.com/escapes/289574-north-shore-resort?msdc_id=868-roseville-folsom-ca)
So the deal is $899 for:
A 3-Night Stay in an Ocean View Room with an Upgrade to an Oceanfront Room if available
Daily Breakfast for Two
All-Day Snorkeling for Two
$100 Resort Credit
2 p.m. Late Checkout, Daily Valet Parking, and Daily Resort Fees Included
$25 in Deal Bucks, Compliments of the New Honda CR-V
Seems like a pretty fab deal to me, plus I've been wanting to check this resort out for awhile now. Thinking of adding it on to our Hawaii vacay this September...
Anyone stay there? Think it's a good deal?
Re: Turtle Bay Resort, Oahu - WDYT of this deal?
Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.

This- we visited and had lunch on their beach (picnic) during our honeymoon as I really really wanted to stay there but couldn't justify the prices. I was utterly disappointed with the hotel (we even viewed some rooms because I was curious). The staff were great but I was much happier with our choice (Marriott in Ko Olina). There really wasn't much around and you would have to have car hire to make it a viable option (unless you wanted ot ride The Bus which isn't that bad)
We always rent a car when we go to Hawaii, and are not big nightlifers, so being in a secluded area wouldn't be a problem. Plus I really like the North Shore, wouldn't mind exploring it more.
It's not a crazy deal, but when you take into the account all the add-ons, I think it's pretty good. Oh well, I have 6 days left to make up my mind...
Thanks girls

I love staying on the north shore and it's a decent price considering all that's included. I'd go for it.
we had great luck staying at the condos at turtle bay... "north shore villas" - this isn't the exact one we stayed in but this is the same complex, next door to turtle bay and with a pool and beach access:

I know, those villas are really nice. I've considered renting one of them through VRBO before too.
