From the reviews
*Wedding Review* From the moment we first stepped onto the property at Turtle Bay Resort, we knew our wedding day was going to be something special. We truly cannot thank the entire Turtle Bay team enough for giving us the most beautiful, stress free, and unforgettable experience of our lives.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great hotel with an excellent location! We stayed on the 29th floor and had a spectacular view. 🌆😍 Although we didn't use the pool because it was a little chilly for us, the property itself was wonderful.
Such an amazing hotel!!! What a beautiful property! All rooms have a wonderful view, backed by the calming and gentle roar of the North Shore waves. It is a front row seat to nature’s majesty! Loved the bars, restaurants and shopping. Exceptional service from every aspect!
One of the best resorts I’ve stayed at. Property was gorgeous. The staff was genially happy to be there and help with anything you might need. Only negative would be parking: I don’t understand a parking fee when you self park in a public lot for the public beach.
Getting married at The Ritz-Carlton O‘ahu, Turtle Bay
Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
