About the host
Hosted by Sophi Foster
The Tranquil Turtle has been a dream for many years. My husband and I decided to take the plunge and give it a try. The Cape is a bit of "Heaven on Earth" that we love and have always wanted to be able to share with our family, friends & guests. You will find that we try to provide all the extras that we can and are always looking for feedback so that we can make this the vacation home you want to return to year after year!
Why they chose this property
The Tranquil Turtle sits right after the rocks on North Cape San Blas. The sunsets are amazing and once you visit you will understand why they call it The Forgotten Coast. Where else can you drive on the beach (with permit), build a fire, or walk your dog? This beach has miles of beautiful white sand, the shells are awesome and so is the fishing. If you are looking for a busy commercial-type area, this is not the place for you. If you want a laid back, peaceful beach vacation then we hope to make the Turtle your "Home Away from Home."
