Nice Spot

Cool place. Location is easy walk and fairly direct route to the beach. House size and bedrooms were good. Plenty of room for parking. The wifi signal was intermittent in trying to stream the TV but that could be the island as a whole. Had trouble accessing the separate guest suite but I don't think that is a recurring issue. Had trouble with both main bedroom showers that were broken in addition to the garbage disposal but property manager had them fixed the next day. The grill was not well maintained and would not even start but again the property manager had fixed within a few days.

Family in a beautiful house

The trip was wonderful, the house was the perfect size and the elevator helped with bringing in luggage and groceries. The house needed some deep cleaning, but after contacting the owner, they explained about the Hurricane in the past few weeks. Everyone would like to use the house next year. Thank you for allowing us to use this beautiful house

Good place

Good place to stay that matched our budget. Had a small issue that the property manager took care of within a reasonable time frame. The house is in a good quiet location with plenty of space. The house could use a little tlc but nothing that would turn me away from booking.

Beautiful home

This home was very well built and has beautiful touches throughout. It is very large, clean and well furnished, with plenty of parking. Every single room of this home has direct access to a deck! It was a bit too cool to use the pool, but it was clean. We would absolutely stay here again!

Stunning Sunsets

Our stay was incredible and the home met every expectation. 3 floors with ample space allowed for gatherings and alone time. The home was clean and the location was great. The elevator was very handy. We had a few minor service issues that were resolved satisfactorily. Sunsets were simply stunning. Thank you!

Family vacation

My family and I stayed here on vacation and it was everything that was advertised. The owner was very cordial and helpful with any questions that we had and even came to the house to bring a couple of things that we needed. Andrew is a top right owner and I would highly recommend this property.

Wonderful Experience

My family enjoyed this house for the second time, with the first being last year. Our family loves vacationing at Turtle's Cove due to its size, the extra "cottage" and location. Watching the sunset from the balconies are second to none, Our grandkids can enjoy playing on the second floor, or third, with all the space that this house has. No reason for them to be bored! A quick drive or ten minute walk to the beach is a plus. Working with Andrew, our host, has been easy and helpful. Definitely, Turtle's Cove is a place to stay!

Great older home needs a little TLC as many things were not operating correctly such as the dishwasher, garbage disposal, some doors, jacuzzi tub and TVs/wi-fi, light bulbs, etc. The elevator was a plus for elderly renter.

The property was not as clean as I would have liked and was not as manicured and taken care of as I thought it should have been for this price range. The porches were not cleaned at all between guests, there was trash on the tables and chocolate on the chairs outside.

Bay View Beauty

Turtle Coves was as described. A beautiful home for all to enjoy. Upon arriving everyone talked about how clean everything was. We loved the view of the bay and would have loved being able to see the ocean. Golf carts came in handy to the beach however the walk was not bad. The pool was an added treat for us to enjoy. Overall the best home for cleanliness and space in our travels.

Too good to be true

Other than the elevator and garbage disposal not working, the house was nice. It was big enough for our group of 16. Beds were very comfortable and rooms were spacious. Weather was a little too chilly to enjoy the pool as it’s not heated, but some of the kids braved it for a few minutes. Was even too cold for them. All in all, the house was comfortable and not too far from town and the beach. We enjoyed ourselves.

Great house with minor issues.

Great location great bedrooms great common spaces great porches, but could use some TLC. The garbage disposal did not work. The left side of the kitchen sink did not drain. Same side as garbage disposal. The shower drain in the master bedroom on the second floor drained very very slowly. At least six roaches were encountered on the kitchen floor level. The shower curtain in the shared bathroom on the second level does not reach the top of the tub. It is impossible to shower without making a watery mess. Finally, the shower in the island bedroom has maybe four or five minutes of hot water.

ST George

The location and house were very nice. We had no internet until Tuesday which made it difficult for any of us to watch tv or work. The gas grill on the deck was out of gas. One of the kids lights fell out of the ceiling when they were taking a shower and it shattered glass everywhere.

Nice but dirty

Very nice property and location but it was very dirty at check-in. The beds were made but it appeared as if the floors and counters had been skipped. There was a film on top of all surfaces. There were also several roaches. No checkout instructions were posted or received via email. When I emailed asking for checkout instructions, I did not receive a response.

Great place, had a water leak

The place is great, clean and pretty well maintained. The only problem we had was a water leak under the kitchen sink. It leaked through to the second floor and made all the smoke detectors go off. We had a hard time getting in touch with the property manager but when we did he was very friendly. We were able to stop the leak and get the smoke detectors to stop ourselves. No one ever came to fix it during our stay.

Helpful hints

We expected king size beds and there were none. It would be nice to have instructions in the rental. There was no power in main room and we had to search for breaker. No way to communicate to get help. No instructions for check out.
