Thanks Julie…what’s crazy is it is quicker to get to the beach from this property than the condo across the street on the beach we owned because of the waits for elevators etc. Hope we just y’all again🏖️

The entire experience of our stay at the Turtle Nest far exceeded any and all expectations in every possible way! Communication with hosts was excellent from the beginning as they coordinated with the cleaning company to ensure the condo would be ready prior to our planned time of arrival. Instructions for parking and checking into the condo were clear and simple. The condo itself was even better in person than pictures, to the point I could not stop saying “it’s SO cute!!” on repeat. The hosts really went the extra mile with details to ensure guests are comfortable. The location is amazing with a very short walk to the beach as well as to restaurants, ice cream shop, convenience store, etc. We were only looking for a decent place to stay that was close to the beach and were beyond pleasantly surprised to have those expectations far surpassed with our stay at the Turtle Nest and would love to return as soon as possible!!

Thank you so much for this incredibly kind review! We are truly thrilled to hear that your stay at The Turtle Nest exceeded your expectations in every way—that’s exactly the experience we hope to create for our guests. It means a lot that you noticed the communication, little details, and overall feel of the condo. We’ve put a lot of thought into making it a comfortable, welcoming space, so hearing that you loved it (and that it was even better in person!) absolutely made our day. We also couldn’t agree more about the location—it’s one of our favorite things too, being so close to the beach, dining and shopping and as you noted the new ice cream shop that is dangerously close😉 Thank you again for choosing The Turtle Nest, and we would absolutely love to host you again anytime. We hope to welcome you back soon! 🐢 Angela & Don

Thanks Michael…..we love the assigned covered parking too! Very few properties offer that…and the fact that it is FREE is a double bonus when most properties require an average parking fee of $50.
