About Mandy Roberts
I am a Canadian married to a local Green Turtle Crawfisherman . I met Dale while cruising the Abaco's back in the early 1990's . We built our 2 story home and raised 2 boys, living a simple but fulfilling life surrounded by this beautiful small island community , close to the sea with all the beauty it holds. We are more than happy to impart local knowledge to make your stay the best it can be .
Mandy Roberts purchased this Apartment in 1992
Why Mandy Roberts chose Green Turtle Estates
Dale's roots are in Green Turtle Cay , his paternal side goes back to the Loyalists , and his family still lives here . We picked this location to build because it is located in the middle of the Island , by the beach, quieter than Town and yet close to everything in either direction. Our extended family run the Shipyard down the road , the Suite is an ideal location for those working on their boats .
What makes this Apartment unique
The Turquoise Sea Suite is an affordable , cosy one bedroom 450 sq. ft. apartment , located on the first floor of our home but with privacy of it's own and surrounded by trees . We live upstairs on the opposite side of the house , work full-time , enjoy our privacy too, but are certainly on hand to chat with , help you with any queries , problems , advice or local knowledge to make your stay enjoyable . When the seas are calm our beach has a sweet reef along the shore ideal for beginners to snorkel on.

Lovely property with everything we needed
The guest quarters is spacious and has everything we needed to cook meals there. This is less necessary than it was at Treasure Cay where there were hardly any restaurants . But eating out every meal could easily cost $150/day for two people here. We spent $74 for lunch at pineapples.
Mandy was very helpful reserving a golf cart for us and even having her husband pick up frozen pineapple and bread for us in Marsh Harbour.
If you like the thought of having every beach to yourself most days, go during the last 2 weeks of July! It was incredible.
Fantastic trip
Turquoise Sea Suite was the perfect place for us. It's beautiful inside and out, you don't need to bring anything but your clothes. Mandy and Dale are wonderful hosts, the fresh bread and beers on arrival were very much appreciated. The beautiful beach is just down the street. Green Turtle Cay is a great little island with so much to do or to just relax. We will definitely be back.
Thank you for choosing our Suite for your stay here :) Hope you come back again !
Already Planning a Return Trip
The apartment exceeded our expectations. It provided a private, comfortable base to enjoy Green Turtle Cay. The furnishings were great, but I was most impressed with the thought they put into other items. We enjoyed the new beach chairs and small coolers on our day trips around the island. It's described as a two minute walk, but you can be on the beach in half that time and never see another person. Mandy went above and beyond to maximize our stay. It was easily the best experience I've had renting through VRBO.
Wow ! Thank you so much for such a nice review :) It was a pleasure to have you 2 , and I'm so glad you found the Suite, location and privacy to be of good value as I know how much it takes to get to this little island ! Hope you come again !
adorable cottage
The cottage is so adorably decorated with amazing attention to detail. AC and fans kept us totally comfortable. Tv works well and movie selection suited us great. It has everything you'll need for fantastic time, including Mandy. She is friendly but allows lots of privacy and is very very helpful.
Thank you for such a lovely review and for choosing our rental :) ! So glad you enjoyed the Suite and felt it was your own for your stay , always happy to help guests have the best time here :) !
Fantastic. Truly a home away from home.
As stated above we were so impressed with this true "Sea Suite". I almost hate too rate this property so high, I need to keep it a secret. Centrally located and private.
Mandy was an incredibly gracious and informative host.
Can't wait to return.
Thank you Tim , so glad you enjoyed your stay and felt you had your own privacy below decks at our house . We'll look forward to your return !
Perfect place to get away from reality
Just returned from my second stay at the Turquoise Sea Suite and it was every bit as wonderful as the first. We had nine days full of bonefish, shells, snorkeling, and boating, and neither of us is ready to return to reality. Mandy and Dale are perfect hosts and will not hesitate to do all they can to ensure your stay is as good as possible. We will be back!
Map
The best flight selections are to Marsh Harbour 28 miles away , however flights from Ft. L. are available into Treasure Cay 5 miles away . Both require a taxi to the Harbour , and a 10 minute Ferry ride to our Island . We will happily pick you up from the town Ferry or you can rent a golf cart for your stay . Green Turtle Cay is a Loyalist Out Island in the true Bahamas , unspoiled but full of fun activities for those who love getting away from it all . The Island is 3 miles long and we are in the middle of easy access to everything : miles of empty beaches, stunning coral reef diving , deep sea & fly fishing , the local village , Museum , 3 grocery shops , 2 hardwares , 12 places to eat , 10 bars , live entertainment , 4 churches , gift shops , dive shop , golf cart , bicycle and small boat rentals , boating excursions , marinas , a shipyard , a library , post office and even a ye olde gaol , tiny Green Turtle Cay has it all .
