Welcome to The Drifter!! Part of the Kuilima Estates East community, the unit was designed with the goal of offering a “Relaxed Luxury” experience. Meaning, to provide guests with an elevated design aesthetic with a feel-good comfortability.

The unit is a loft-style design with 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom and offers 751 interior square feet for your enjoyment. The spacious interior sleeps two (2) guests with one (1) king bed.

The kitchen features a stovetop, dishwasher, water dispenser, Keurig coffeemaker, microwave, plates, bowls, cups, and utensils.

Additionally, the surrounding area is perfect for relaxing or spending the day outside. The unit is located next to the Kuilima Estates community pool complex and has direct golf course frontage. The Ritz-Carlton O'ahu, Turtle Bay is right around the corner and offers resort style amenities including restaurants, spa services and numerous tour options. There is a golf course, pond, and the ocean walking distance from the unit.

**Considerations**

We are on an island so now and again there will be ants and occasional non-threatening bugs. We do have pest control come and spray to help minimize this encounter. Please do not leave any food or crumbs out.

Please note if the AC is run consistently there will sometimes be condensation. If this happens, please give the AC a little rest.

The Drifter is one unit within other units, (this goes for all condos at Turtle Bay) this means we all share the same plumbing, therefore if a little issue arises, we will do our best to tend to the situation as promptly as possible.

Perfect Location & Lovely Condo

We had a wonderful stay at The Drifter! The space is open, light, and spacious, exactly as shown in the photos. The location is perfect—within walking distance to Turtle Bay Resort, restaurants, the beach, and hiking trails like the path to Kahuku Point (highly recommended). It’s also just a short drive to North Shore beaches and towns. One note: the condo is close to the pool, so you may hear pool activity during the day, but it’s quiet at night. We enjoyed walking to the beach across the golf course each evening to sit under the stars. Tip: use Google Maps’ Earth View to navigate across the golf course to the beach, as there is no direct path.
