Kid-Friendly Itinerary
For our youngest guests under 13
It can be hard to keep the youngest among us interested but Turtle Bay captures the hearts of every guest, no matter what their age. Choose from a wide variety of activities on-site, all at your own pace and catered to your family’s ever-changing needs. Take a hands-on approach with an ukulele and hula lesson. Take a family bike ride through our beachside trails. And of course, our spacious rooms are there for you at the end of the day, along with relaxing resort spaces for some much-needed downtime, whenever you need it.
Day One
- Settle into your Ocean Club Room and access the private lounge to enjoy snacks and refreshing drinks.

Day Two
- After a good night’s rest, enjoy fresh brewed coffee, fresh fruit, and made-to-order eggs in the Ocean Club Lounge.
