We loved it here so much we stayed in this property twice! Very well appointed, open and accessible. The owners are very cooperative, friendly and available!
Very nice condo, easily accessible. Super easy check in and out. Host was very communicative and helpful with the area and recommendations. Look forward to coming again!
We loved the condo, bedrooms were spacious and nicely decorated, bathroom clean .Outside deck was nice to sit and have morning coffee and watch the sunrise .Close and easy access to beach , Loved that they provided sheets and towels and beach chairs! All around great place to stay!
This was a very nice condo in a great location. We appreciated the communication from the owner when we checked in. House was super clean and beds were comfortable.
Hope to be able to visit again!
It was so lovely to stay a block away from the ocean! Mother nature was not very cooperative, but my dog and I tried to walk the beach every day. Tripp was a very responsive host, and we will try and go there again!
We loved our condo-it had everything we needed to thoroughly enjoy our vacation. We were surprised that he furnished a beach wagon, beach chairs and boogie boards.
Well stocked kitchen. Towels and linens provided. Great location. My granddaughter was pregnant but it was easy to drive her down to the club house to use the pool or beach -only a one minute drive with plenty of parking. Owner was very prompt in answering any questions. It was great to be able to take our dog along!
Wonderful family week in 4 bedroom condo. Plenty of room to spread out. Quiet. Short walk from public access to beach. Really appreciated beach club access where we enjoyed the pools right next to the beach.
Everything was wonderful at this property. Clean, well stocked, easy to get to and close to the beach! The only thing I found odd was the lack of hardware in the bathrooms (TP and towel holders). Overall excellent rental!

Glad you enjoyed Turtle Watch! Would love to host you again next year!
We loved everything about our week at Turtle Watch, from hanging out on the balcony, playing virtual golf on the tv, real golf nearby, lots of beach time and fishing, great food from the many nearby restaurants and also fresh seafood we prepared in the well-equipped kitchen. The beach club is a favorite hangout and we enjoyed lunch at the tiki bar several times. One night, when there was a 2 and a half hour wait at Sharky's, we were able to walk in to the restaurant at the beach club, where we enjoyed an amazing oceanfront meal. The four bedrooms and four bathrooms gave us and our grown children plenty of space to spread out and relax.
Four families fit perfectly. We had a great time, and we loved sitting on the porch. We got to see a huge storm come in!! Sweet turtles and baby ducks in the pond under us. We rented a golf cart to help get us to and from the beach/clubhouse. We love that clubhouse so we could use the pool and bathroom. The Tiki bar there was great for a quick lunch. The elevator is super helpful when we have groceries or luggage. The owner responds very quickly if I had any questions. Will definitely stay again!!
Very nice, clean and well-maintained unit. Close walk to the beach and the pool. Ample parking for three or four cars. Tennis court, pickle ball court and basketball court on premises. Nice outside deck to enjoy the ocean breezes.
Owner had nice chairs and cart for use at the beach, which was an added bonus.

Liked: Check-in, location
Rating: 7/10Great location, quiet neighborhood, ample parking, and easy beach access. The elevator was a nice perk, deck furniture was comfortable, and WiFi held up well for a large group. Unfortunately, several issues held this property back from the “modern renovation” it advertises.Issues:•Wobbly chair – A dining chair had a severely loose leg and my wife nearly fell. After our stay I found the same issue flagged in a 2022 review. This has been a known safety problem for at least three years with no fix.•Clogged bathtub – The tub in our bedroom was completely clogged and unusable.•Shower curtain rod – Fell off the wall mid-stay with only a wet towel and a sport coat on it.•Laundry – Found a full load of soured towels in the dryer two days in — left damp from the pre-arrival housekeeping run. The dryer is severely underpowered (2 hours for a small load) and the washer runs so off-balance it shakes the unit.•Kitchen – Scratched non-stick pans need to be replaced. Cooking utensils, baking pans, and a proper broom are all lacking.We contacted the owner during our stay and received no response. The bones of this property are solid — with basic maintenance and better housekeeping oversight this could easily be a 4–5 star experience.

Thanks for the feedback. 6/10 seems aggressive (even though you wrote 7/10 in your essay), but you’re entitled to your opinion. TurtleWatch hasn’t had less than a 10/10 review in 2 years at an 80% occupancy rate. While we appreciate your feedback, we think you’ll be more comfortable at another condo for your next vacation. Thank you again.
