The property was just as advertised. The view of the ocen was fabulous. The cleanliness of the unit was outstanding. It was exactly the place we needed for a short getaway at the beach. Highly recommend.
Very clean, tidy, and well equipped. We really enjoyed the closeness to the sand and the walkway to the ocean was very nice to have. Gene is very responsive and provides clear instructions for check in and check out. The stemless wine glasses his wife makes for souvenirs are a very nice surprise! We will definitely be coming back to Turtle Tides for a longer stay.
Great place. worth the money. Host was fantastic. Only thing I could say that needs help is the deck is old and needs the nails pounded back down. one board was split (when we got there) and not comfortable to walk on bare foot. but sitting out there in the chairs watching the ocean. wonderful. room was well done and spacious. great location. Loved our stay
weekend was amazing and having such an adorable little home with an awesome view topped it off. if i could share a photo here of the sunrise sunday morning after some iffy weather - it was beautiful. communication was perfect between the owner as well. would def stay again!
This condo is fantastic. It is clean and well equipt and has a million dollar view of the ocean!! This morning we were watching dolphins swim. The owner is very welcoming and answers all questions right away. Highly recommend this condo.!!
A nice place to stay, great location and ocean views

Thank you for sharing your experience! I’m so glad you enjoyed your stay, especially the location and those beautiful ocean views. Sounds like a 5-star stay to me!
We had a fantastic day at this beautiful, remodeled, oceanfront condo! There’s really nothing not to like about Turtle Cove. Everything is fresh and clean, the kitchen has everything you need to do some cooking, the bed was incredibly comfortable, and I’d have to say sitting out on the deck overlooking the ocean, enjoying coffee in the morning or a glass of wine at night we’re highlights of our day. Also, very easy access on the recently renovated walkway to the beach.The owner was great about communication, and was there to help us when we did have a couple of minor issues. The only thing to be aware of is there are two flights of steps up to the condo and then another flight of steps once you’re in the condo. A little challenging, but definitely worth it, especially because you have an amazing view from the condo!Thank you again Gene!
Great 1 bedroom condo. This place has everything you need and is in a fantastic location and walking distance to possibly the best diner in OBX. This place was very clean and had everything we needed for our stay.
Great location and amazing views with walk out beach access! Host was great. We had a super short trip but central to eveeything, so we were able to do everyything that we wanted.
Gene our host was very welcoming and kept us informed. Check in and out was easy. The condo was as described. Cooked Thanksgiving dinner and could have used some measuring cups. Other than that everything was great.The oceanfront view was amazing!! The water was only steps away. Would definitely be open to coming back again.
Check in was super easy. The view was just as described. The minute we walked in we felt our tension slip away. The weather didn’t always cooperate but being able to watch the waves whenever we wanted more than made up for it. The condo was very clean and spacious with great access to many attractions!
We thoroughly enjoyed this turtle-themed condo, even though our week coincided with wild Nor'easter winds and cloudy skies. The stormy views from the balcony were beautiful in their own way, and we did finally see two colorful sunrises. The location of this condo is very convenient--an easy drive to all parts of the Outer Banks, and grocery stores, gas stations, and restaurants are all nearby. The condo's furnishings met all of our needs. Communication with the host before and during our stay was always prompt and informative.
Great location, centrally located so short drive either way to all the sights you want to see. Fantastic hosts, well maintained, well stocked, right on the beach. Beautiful sunrises, would definitely stay again.
Although it was winter weather, the break from home was wonderful. By far, one of the easiest vacations I have ever taken! I would love to visit again in the summer time or early Fall.
Loved our stay at Turtle Tides! Everything was 100% as advertised and Gene is an excellent host—every single one of his recommendations was great. You cannot beat being literally steps from the beach.
What a wonderful place to stay right on the beach. Exactly as advertised. Gene is a great host and helped with suggestions for restaurants and always responded immediately to any text. We had a great stay .Thank you
