To encourage fun times with your guests, Green Turtle Gardens has a large dining table with lots of seating downstairs on the breezeway patio, and the upstairs has plenty of comfortable seating in the great room and on the decks.

A roof deck provides a wonderful gathering spot, especially for sunsets, and provides a fabulous 360 degree view of the island, the Atlantic, the Caribbean, and the nearby islands. You might even get to see the “Green Flash”!
