Enjoyed our stay

Loved our stay at Turtle Shell. Room was clean and conveniently located to beach and Surf City Line restaurant. Highly recommend considering this option for a stay on the island.

Return every year

My wife and I love staying at the bungalow. Best part is we bring our dogs and easy access to the beach. We return every year!

Perfect spot for a little getaway.

This property was so adorable. It was just enough space for my husband and our two dogs. The beach was steps away and the live music from Surf City Line in the evenings made for a great long weekend getaway. Would 100% stay there again!!

We got in bed and there was sand all in bed. I understand at beach but clean bedding? Thank God I brought blankets to lay down in bed so we didn’t feel the sand. Dark room when asked for ocean front. The neighbor stayed up all night with TV so loud couldn’t sleep. We roughed it out for two nights.

Great Little Place!

We went down in January w/ our dog. She loved the beach and area. Since it was January parking was very easy but each apartment has its own space as well. This a one room place that is perfect and very clean. We would stay here again. FYI the Mexican Restaurant behind the apartment was very good as well. We highly recommend this place for a couple.

Perfect location

This place literally thought of everything for you. They even had ear plugs because we faced a bar and restaurant that plays live music (they give a heads up about it in the listing, which i appreciated), but honestly it didnt bother us and you can't hear it all with the door closed. Everyone was suoer nice and the place was very clean. And it had a nice big bed! You are right on the beach and theres a little shower for your feet right off the path. The only thing that orevent you from seeing the ocean from the oarking lot is the dunes, you are right there!

Close to the beach

Location was good, but room was small. Also everything felt damp even with AC running. Refrigerator freezer didn’t get cold enough and dripped onto food in main area. TV and bathroom shower were nice bed was comfortable except for the slight damp feeling of the covers. Parking was a little challenging.

We were quite disappointed with our stay at the Turtle Shell Bungalows. The room was absolutely filthy!The floors were covered in dirt and grime. The bathroom had black mold and mildew throughout. We had to get cleaning supplies and clean the unit ourselves.The listing notes bicycles are available for use but that is not the case. There are no bicycles there. There were a fee beach chairs but other guests had taken them to their units so they were not available to use.There is no closet or dresser so you will have to live out of your suitcase while there. There was a coffee maker but no coffee for it. The freezer leaked water into the shelves of the refrigerator.This facility could be so much more if the owners cared about it. After our visit we could not recommend this facility. The filthy conditions are not acceptable. We raised these concerns with the owners. They said that they would look into it.

Location location location

For two people wanting to be as close as possible to the beach, this unit can’t be beat. Also, the units are super dog friendly which is awesome. The units are accurate to their pictures, with some minor wear and tear. Our only issues were that a few of the mugs seemed dirty upon our arrival (not a huge deal because we don’t use them, but we felt the need to clean them before leaving so no one thought we left them that way) and there is definitely an earwig problem. We had to get rid of a few every day during our stay. Being dog friendly, pest control might be difficult to ensure pet safety, but it was definitely more than just a random bug that found it’s way in. Still a great stay, just wish there weren’t so many earwigs.

Shockingly small

Close to the beach and the AC was ice cold about the only positives to this place. The place is extremely small, much smaller than any hotel room I’ve ever seen. Bed was old and sunk in the middle, mold on the shower walls and floor we wore flip flops in the shower, stains on the walls, the pictures are deceptive be sure to look very closely. The house is divided into 7 units so it’s really crowded. No beach chairs or beach items as suggested and the $125 cleaning fee is ridiculous for the tiny place. I would not recommend staying in this unit. No washer and dryer available, no closet, hutch, or drawers of any kind so you literally live out of your bag. So many negatives stove or oven of any kind. I’m being generous in giving it a 2 star

Loved staying at this property! It's the cutest little bungalow. This is a huge beach house split into several different apartments, so smart! We were in bungalow F. It was facing the back area where we let our dog out to use the bathroom, super convenient. There is a restaurant literally in our backyard (blocked by a privacy fence) which we loved! It was so nice to just be able to walk right over there to dinner. We asked for bikes & got a message that they were waiting for us outside our bungalow within like an hour, I was very impressed! After dinner one evening we rode our bikes to get ice cream, such a sweet experience. The walk to the beach was so convenient, straight across the dead end road in front of the house and up the stairs and you're on the beach. Would definitely recommend this place for a beach stay or little get away. The room was just enough, fridge, full sink, microwave, a few dishes & silverware. Air conditioner worked amazingly! Would definitely recommend this place & we do plan to be back!
