Turtle Bay Resorts snared a spot on the recently released Golf World Readers Choice Top 50 Golf Resorts in America List for 2010.

The North Shore resort earned the 43rd spot for its Arnold Palmer and George Fazio courses.

The Golf World Readers Choice Awards are determined by reader input gathered through Golf Digest Publications Research Resource Center via an online poll. More than 46,000 individual facility ratings and 600,000 criteria evaluations were collected, grading facilities across the nation based on criteria that included quality and condition of course, reputation, golf practice facilities, speed of play, clubhouse facilities, hotel and food & beverage accommodations, caddie program, golf pro shop, off-course activities & amenities, and overall service and value.

Turtle Bay Resort with its 18-hole Arnold Palmer Course is ranked as a Top 100 Golf Resort in America by Golf Digest. Designed by Arnold Palmer and Ed Seay, the course was rated one of Golf Magazine's "Top 10 New Courses" in America and ranked 4th among Golf Digest's "Best New Resort Courses in America" the year it opened.

The George Fazio Course at Turtle Bay is named after its late architect, George Fazio, who was once called "Michelangelo on a bulldozer." Fazio was a prominent PGA Tour professional of the 40s and 50s and uncle/mentor to the famed golf architect Tom Fazio. The course is the only George Fazio layout in Hawaii.
