Hi,
We will be staying 4 nights in Oahu (early nov) and was thinking 2 nights at Turtle Bay Resort and 2 Day at Halekulani. How does that sound?
Do you think it would be wiser to do 1 night at Turtle and the rest at Halekulani? Can we do the North Shore area in a day and a half? Halekulani has some packages that seem inticing but they require a 3 night stay. But we were sure how rushed we would be just doing one night and then packing up to leave again from Turtle.....
4 nights in Oahu?---question about hotel planning
With only 4 nights I would pick one or the other for the full stay as there is enough in either area to stay busy. The other part is they are over an hour apart so there is checkout of one drive to the other checkin not including packing and unpacking say 4 hours shot. You can always take one day and drive to the other locale to scope it out.

If you found a good package you should just stay at Halekulani for the duration, it is a beautiful resort. The drive to the North Shore always seems quick and it is easy to drive up there even for only a half day. Its too much hassle to change hotels in the middle of your stay and drag all your luggage around.
Although I didn%26#39;t stay at either, I visited them both..actually had the world%26#39;s best mai tai at the %26#39;house without a key%26#39;-an absolute must. I would probably just stick with the Halekulani.
The North Shore is lovely, but we did it in a day....rode up, looked around, got a burger (i forget where, but it is famous, crowded and good...) and a shave ice at matsamoto%26#39;s grocery store....then we drove back to Waikiki. (We were at the Sheraton for a convention)
Have a great trip
