Turtle Inn

What a magical place! We ate the Indonesian Rijsttafel on a monday, which was a great experience in their beautifull environment. The food was amazing, many different portions of Indonesian yumminess on a lazy Sue. Thanks Mr. Martin! QPO ;-)

The scuba and trail/birding/Mayan guides were the best we’ve ever had. Hands down the best!!! If you stay here go on an excursion! However, the front desk was terrible. The whole trip they didn’t get any reservations for anything correct- EVER. The food wasn’t good and the breakfast service was awful- out of five breakfasts not one time did we get what we ordered. We ended up canceling all on site restaurants to go into town and even then they concierge didn’t know what restaurants were open on what days. The grounds staff, bar staff and housekeeping were also great. It’s very clear there is a lack of management at the front of house and maybe a lack of interest from the owner. It definitely feels like a resort on the decline which is a real shame for the guide department where there is some extreme talent.

From the moment we arrived to the time we left Turtle Inn was a fabulous experience. Their incredibly friendly and personable staff went above and beyond in everything they did and were very helpful. Our Seafront Cottage was comfortable, spacious and exquisitely decorated. The food and drink choices were wonderful with a nice variety and there were multiple excursions to choose from. Not to be missed is the half-day snorkeling to Laughing Bird Caye with fellow travelers and Javier and the Sunset Cruise in the Dolce Vita. We loved everything about this charming, idyllic resort and will surely be back!

Our family of two parents and two teens loved our time at turtle Inn. We loved relaxing by the beach and the pool and the villa was amazing with space for both kids and parents and some spaces to relax and play games. We loved the restaurants! The kids favorite was the Woodfire pizza oven and the parents favorite was the fresh fish at the main restaurant. We loved the happy hour by the beach/pool and it was the most relaxed we’ve been in years. We loved the adventures where we went repelling down waterfalls, zip lining, and snorkeling in the coral reef. We also spent three nights at the sister resort in Blancaneaux in the mountains, which was highly recommended.

Second time to the Turtle Inn. Another fantastic time. Got upgraded by the friendly folks at the front desk. The villa was unbelievable! First class service by all of the staff. Can't remember all the names but a few I remember are Jimmy, Jonathon, Bamboo, Rooney. Food was excellent as expected. Try the pizza parlor on Sundays! Great snorkeling led by Marlin who was a blast. Lots of friendly people staying there also. The beach bar was our favorite hangout. Highly recommend!
