Exciting news!!! Turtle Beach Resort is now a "Favorite Place on Google! The resort was one of the most popular local businesses on Google. It is fantastic news to be so popular. We are one of less than 250,000 businesses in the US to receive this recognition; that's less than 1% of all U.S. businesses.
The resort is filled up with happy Labor Day weekend guests, sunning and relaxing near the pool and in their private patios. Manatees are being sighted daily, the best time of year to view them right by our docks. One happy honeymoon couple were able to paddle their canoe next to them, a rare event to view this endangered gentle sea cow family.
September is a great time to visit the Inn at Turtle Beach Resort and the cottages. We are running special rates this month and throughout the fall. The full moon rises on the bay side behind the spoil islands in the fall, a Harvest Moon.. an awesome sight, almost like a planet rising from the horizon, orange and enormous.

We have a fantastic new special to report! SUMMER RATES IN JANUARY!!!!! If you book now, we are discounting all winter January rates to summer prices~ a savings of up to $700 off our weekly rates in the Caribbean waterfront cottage with private boat dock! In our inn and bay view Studios SAVE from $475-725 weekly off winter rates. One bedroom suites and cottages are now discounted $550-$700 off winter rates!!
Please email or call us for details.

August on Siesta Key at Turtle Beach Resort and Inn.. the dolphins pass by several times a day.. most of our guests have seen the very rarely sighted manatees: swimming quietly in a pod. ... mother, father babies... playing in the saltwater bay and lagoon...
The sunsets are amazing. The beach and pool will cool you off from the summer heat... guests are relaxing in the hammocks, while watching this serene natural view.
One boat captain remarked this week.. I have never seen this end of the island, and it looks just like Thailand!
The guests are thrilled with the large discounts we provide at one of the finest gourmet, yet casual island restaurants.. a 4-5 course dinner every night from $15-20 per person.. can not be beat...
Every unit has been redecorated and guests love and want to duplicate the decor. This resort is unique, with the owners original art work on the walls!!
School is starting back, fall will be here soon, but this is still a summer, island retreat for relaxation and renewal. Families enjoy the kayaks, canoes, fishing gear, bikes, and nature. Exploring the "secret" beach is a must. We are currently doing summer/fall specials in our inn behind the beach. Labor Day weekend is also discounted from regular holiday weekend rates.
Honeymooners, special occasions.. anniversaries, birthdays, proposals... all make our resort a small island oasis for happy times.

We are not only accommodation, we are an experience!

Our Turtle Beach Resort offers you a beautiful oasis of 10 cottages, each with beautiful views of the bay and their very own large private hot tubs tucked away in their own courtyards. The Resort is family/pet friendly and only a three minute walk to the beach. We have a second property across the street, the Inn at Turtle Beach which is for adults only, no pets or children allowed, consisting of ten quaint units. A very quiet and relaxing oasis right on the lagoon behind Turtle Beach, only a two minute walk to the beach. Each unit has their own large hot tub privately fenced in along with the unit. We do have an outdoor swimming pool on each property, gas grill, and free use of canoes, kayaks, bikes, beach and fishing gear. There are three restaurants for lunch and dinner within walking and about 30 other restaurants, shopping, live music and beach bars are 3-4 miles north of us. If you are looking for a vacation of a lifetime, then call us at 941-349-4554 to inquire about reservations and rates or email us at info@turtlebeachresort.com.

Words from our guests.....

I had planned this mini vacation for just the two of us, and so glad I did! We had the most relaxing and romantic time possible. To imagine only 3 hours from our home, was this little quiet, beautiful oasis hidden away from it all! We woke up and had a wonderful breakfast out on our patio watching the sunrise each morning, then continued the day enjoying the canoes to the "Secret Beach" and swimming in the pool. Wonderful dinners at nearby restaurants, "Miguel's" and "Bella Roma" were very delicious and inexpensive. We could not have ask for more. Thank you to the staff for being so delightful and informative. We will be back!

WOW!!! That pretty much sums it up! My boyfriend found your resort online and so happen to propose to me in one of your canoes under the moonlight and stars! HOW ROMANTIC! I cannot wait to spend our honeymoon with you. The private hot tub and hammock in the "Rain Forest" were definitely a plus! Thanks for such a wonderful time!

We came to your resort with intentions of having a relaxing and fun time for our family vacation, and boy, did we ever. The kids loved the sand play area, fishing and canoes. The local beaches are soooo beautiful and everyone so friendly on the island. We ate a great lunch at "Turtle's Restaurant", but cooked most of our meals in our cottage. The "Montego Bay" was so beautifully decorated, loved the hot tub at night and the beautiful views and sunrise! What a beautiful piece of paradise you have here. Thanks too, for welcoming our dog "Coco". He loved chasing the geckos and running on the sandbars around the resort. We hope to return next year!

Another beautiful day in paradise.....
