Great visit- perfect location!
I loved staying at Turtles Nest and hope to return again one day! The views and location were perfect, the space was great, and Jennifer was very helpful. Thanks so much!
We only had a towel each to use during our study or recommend people bringing their own towels. We had to wash and dry the towels that we used, which was no problem. Take the sheets on the bed no problem wash all the dishes dry them, and put them away we went ahead and swap the floors cleaned the bathrooms well Take out all the garbage. Other than that. It was a great place to stay.
Great location, easy entry, great view! I can't say enough about this property. We didn't cook any meals, but the kitchen was well stocked to make anything you would want. Toaster, coffee maker, crock pot, you name it. Towels were big and soft, shower was wonderful (great pressure and removable shower head). Bed was very comfy and there were plenty of pillows. The pool was heated and we swam in Feb!! Island is easy to get around. The beach felt like we were the only ones there. We are looking to return this summer with our family. Loved Dauphin Island and Turtles Nest East. The only thing that would have made it better would have been a hot tub...but that's just being greedy! LOL
Beautiful views, loved the pools, and the easy access to the beach. The condo looked newly refurbished and was super comfortable. The only issues we had were that we got emails from three different places and it was confusing. We got to the condo and had to call the lady because we didnt have our front door code. She was super helpful and told me to look for an email under a different name. I found it. That was our only issue. We had a graat time and would stay here again or recommend to others.
We had a great quick weekend stay at Turtles Nest, East. Great central location on the island. The condo was perfect for our family and we enjoyed a day at the pool and direct access to the beach!

Peaceful
This condo was perfect for the three of us. It was the best stocked beach condo/house we’ve ever stayed in. DI is one of our favorites. The beach was beautiful and the pools were never crowded.

Beautiful view!
Turtles nest was perfect for our small family and a quick getaway to the island. It was very clean and had all the amenities we would need. We would definitely recommend! We gave it a 4 only because we would have liked a small table to eat on the balcony or inside, but otherwise highly recommend!

Awesome Condo
We loved our stay at Turtles Nest East. The host was very helpful and sent us great information prior to our stay. She was also easy to contact when we had a question after we arrived. The condo kitchen looked recently renovated and was well stocked. The location was perfect for us.
This property was exactly as described. Very easy check in process and great communications with owner. The mattress was extra comfortable. It was nice having an elevator along with carts to haul things in and out. Alao well stocked. The weather wasn’t great, but we still sat on the porch and listened to the waves and took walks when it cleared. Very quiet in the facility as well as outside. Highly recommend.
