Good location. We enjoyed our stay. Beds were too firm for all people. Tons of rules to follow. We thought it was a little much. Like they expected you to start washing towels the day you leave but didn’t leave laundry detergent. Needed a broom and dust pan to sweep out sand. There is only 4 chairs to sit on for all 3 non beach front properties. Chairs were comfy and we did enjoy the partial sun shade. Beautiful beachfront

Nice Home at Quite Dead End Street Near Beach

We really enjoyed our stay at Turtle Shell. Nice well kept home with pretty much anything needed. The beach is a short walk down the path and has several chairs, a picnic table with umbrella, and kayaks. Thank you Mr. Jody and family for having us!

Great Family Vacation

This property was absolutely for our spring break as a family! It was a great place to launch our explorations of the island, and we loved how close it was to the beach. We got to do lots of snorkeling and kayaking. I was well stocked and had everything we needed.

Another Great Stay

This was our second time staying on Spanish Wells with this host, and we can't imagine a better experience. The cottage is immaculate, well located. Perfect for a family of four or more. The hosts are the best.

We couldn't be happier with our stay at Turtle Shell

First off our communication in pre-planning was super quick and super helpful. The place was so cute and comfortable and access to the beach (a spectacular, nearly empty of people beach) was 1 min walk. Spanish Wells is wonderful and we will go back and we would love to stay here again. Thank you Tara and Jody for all the help and for this lovely little gem of a place

Amazing Cottage on Spanish Wells

We had a great time in Spanish Wells. Turtle Shell cottage was very nice. It had everything we needed. The location is perfect. A short walk down a path leads you to the beautiful beach with beach chairs and nice umbrella covering. The host was very responsive and easy to communicate with. We will definitely rent here again
