Secluded getaway
High on a hill with a beautiful view of Turtle Bay. Very relaxing there and so so quiet. Our host Michelle was on top of everything. The house had everything you would need to start off with. Very clean and the beds were so comfortable. We traveled to several beaches that were close by and the water taxi to Nevis was five minutes down the road. Make sure you go over there to the Sunshine Bar. The beach is gorgeous there also. We had a wonderful time in St.Kitts and at Turtle Nest.

Perfect location at Turtle Beach
We loved our stay at Turtle Nest. The property had everything we needed and was spacious and well maintained. The location provided absolute privacy and quiet evenings. The host was wonderful. She met us on day one and gave us great advice on where to dine and relax. We didn't have to leave the pinninsula to have a great time and enjoy fantastic food and beaches. Reggae Beach Bar is nearby and is a place we could easlily have spent the entire week.

Had a great, relaxing time!
Finally a relaxing vacation. The place overlooks a beautiful bay at the quiet end of the island. Had a great time swimming and grabbing food down at the Reggae Beach Bar. It’s a small island so it was only 15 minutes drive to grab groceries or to be surrounded by more people. Good times.

Phenomenal Property!!
I’m former travel agent for 25 years & we have traveled all over the Caribbean. St Kitt’s has by far been the absolute best island ever!! So easy to navigate, amazing restaurant options & the beaches are awesome!! Turtle Nest Apt was also one of the best we’ve ever stayed in. Very spacious & clean! Comfy beds and the floors weren’t a sandy mess. Loved having a few island essentials in the refrigerator when we arrived: bottled water, fresh bread, eggs. Ziggy the cat was always awaiting our return every evening & meowed at the door first thing in the morning. We loved having him around. Loved the ease in communication. Our trip had to be unexpectedly rescheduled last minute from June to end of July & they were flexible in allowing us to change our dates. Which this was very much appreciated! I’ve already recommended this apartment to many of my friends & we will be back!! And, Reggae Beach was amazing & very close - highly recommend LobsterFest on Friday nights! By far the best beach was Salt Plage (it’s “closed”) but it was recommended by some Ross Vet Students & we went 3 days. Security Guard just advised to cleanup after ourselves & enjoy. No facilities here but beautiful dock to enjoy under the palm trees, snorkeling was amazing & the have yolo boards that you can use & put back. Sunset here was beautiful. Rush slowly & enjoy St Kitt’s like we did!

Nothing Better
If you are looking for the best quiet , relaxed place to stay in St Kitts. This is it! Having a local house manager (Michele) that can help you with any local places and activities including Nevis is worth the $$ in house chef. The owners are also locals.

Turtle Nest Review
Great stay. The Turtle Nest unit is accurately described in the description. It was very clean and nice, but is not a “fancy” accommodation. It has everything you need and nothing you don’t. Kitchen was well equipped and we cooked most of our meals. Location is excellent if you want a quiet, private stay. Spectacular views and walking distance to beach. Short drive to several beautifully maintained beaches. Excellent communication and responsiveness from owners. 5-star rating and would definitely stay here again.

Charming Suite with Great View
We really enjoyed our week at Turtle Nest. There is a resident cat, Ziggy, a real sweetheart who will move in with you for the week if you let him. We're cat people, so Ziggy really made us feel at home. The owners of the property leave food under the sink that you can feed him if you want to encourage him to hang around. Otherwise, this is a charming well-equipped suite. It's cozy but very comfortable and quiet. It's not newly renovated but is nicely furnished and decorated, and very quiet except for the sound of the ocean. The windows are all screened so can be left open for a nice cross breeze. We never turned the AC on. There is a large deck that runs the length of the suite which has great views and very comfy lounge chairs. Turtle Bay is a two minute walk down the hill. It can be quite rough when the wind is up, but it's still possible to swim near the shore, and there is a decent snorkeling reef out past the remains of the wooden dock that's accessible on calmer days. And yes, there are turtles. As others have mentioned, the beach is not groomed and there's a fair bit of sargassum build-up, so it's a not a beach you walk to feel your toes in the sand. You can walk in about twenty minutes via a short-cut path to Reggae Beach, which is more sheltered for swimming and has water sports and activities - and two good restaurants, Reggae Beach Bar, and Spice Mill. The path starts at the east end of Turtle Bay beach. There are signs pointing into the foliage, which is a little thick at first but soon opens up to a dirt road going right into the Reggae Beach Bar parking area. We found Turtle Nest to be a great value for the money. We'd come from a week on Nevis at a much more expensive villa, and thought it might be a bit of a come down, but we were very pleasantly surprised and would happily go back. I deducted one star for 'Location' only because the dirt road from the highway is very rough in places. Just go slowly, which is good advice for any Caribbean holiday.

Great Host, Great Place, Reasonable Price
The host Michelle was fabulous to work with. Upon late arrival there were starter meals, toiletries, beach towels, cooler for packing lunch, and other items we requested after arrival. She would ask everyday if we needed anything. The balcony is great for the view and chilling during evening dinners with a nice breeze. In July weather is consistence 82 F daytime and 74 F in the evening, with short rain periods here and there. Reggae Beach is a few minutes away with decent snorkeling along the left side of the rocks. Reggae also includes restaurant, shower, rest rooms, and water sports. It is worth a taking the Islander water taxi ($25/person round trip) to Nevis also for snorkeling and a very good meal at Lime on the beach. To the right of the Lime restaurant is a rock pile in the water where we has some of the best snorkeling during our trip. The host also provide many suggestions for activities to do on the island as we like to move around a lot and not just lay on the beach.

St. Kitts Girls Trip
The Turtle Nest is situated in the best location on the island of St. Kitts with the most amazing view. We were able to walk to several different beaches, the Reggae Bar restaurant and the water taxi. The hosts provided us with great recommendations and information. There was no delay in having any questions answered. The verandah was our favorite spot. We sat out there for hours enjoying the view and the sea breeze. Ziggy the house cat came by to visit us everyday. The rental had everything that we could have possibly needed during our stay including beach chairs, a boogie board and a washer and dryer. Plenty of sunscreen, bug spray and toiletries were available for use as well. I would definitely stay here again and have already recommended the Turtle Nest to several friends. Thanks to our hosts for this wonderful rental. We will be back!

A magnificent escape from the world!
Dynamic weather! ... Sun soaked looking over the Atlantic! (Rough and Rugged) …... Wow so beautiful! ... Nature... Peaceful and remote!!! Lots of little cute monkeys around here. This unit is quite spacious (more than I thought: electrical/ water/shower(s) … all solid!) and has a beautiful long deck to enjoy views of the ocean and Nevis in the distance, not to mention the stars at night… I’m so comfortable here! The Clouds, (Atmospheric Systems rolling in off the ocean) the ‘Stars’ ... Spectacular!!!!!!!... ‘Love you Venus’... So beautiful here, and so are the PEOPLE!! My God such natural beauty! … I LOVE this part of St. Kitts. I was lucky enough to experience a few late-night heavy rainfalls... very dramatic and comforting to be able to walk the length ‘back and forth’ of the expansive deck, peering through the coconut trees and across the ocean... Shelter! ……. Walk and run for miles (any day you care/ safe!) … ‘Reggae Beach Bar’ is located rather close by through secret pathway off the beach (which is perhaps 2 minutes from the front door) …. Truly the ‘best of people’ and the food is excellent!!! (Ribs/Lobster… Wow!) After several weeks here on this side of this island I finally learned how to use my front door key, …. Can you say this where you live??????? I doubt it! (Unnecessary, and only just to learn!... Ha!!! Safe!). Not bad indeed!!!! This Family is great … I needed to pound out some Conch for cooking … sent a ‘portal message’ and received a hammer within the hour (Thanks Ava!). I will be back! A magnificent escape from the rest of the world!

Lovely spot off the beaten path
Our stay @ Turtle Nest was just lovely!! Penny (as well as the whole family) were superb hosts!! They went above & beyond & really made our stay one to remember!! It is off the beaten path, so renting a car would be ideal. However, we didn’t have one & Penny helped us out in a pinch!! Cockleshell Bay (beside Reggae Beach bar) is superb!! And we were treated like royalty @ Reggae Beach bar whenever we went - the property owners own the bar. Special shoutout to Ken - for consistently going above & beyond. Really enjoyed our stay!!

Fantastic view, nice place, but out there
This was our first visit to St. Kitt's. This was a good choice for a first place stay. Upside- clean, comfortable (my wife loved the sheets and bed), fantastic view. Downsides- access road is lousy, driveway is 'interesting' to say the least; No lights from driveway up stairs to property. Other than Reggae Beach, Hyatt and Spice Mill, it's at least 15 minutes to anything and usually more like half an hour. Don't even think about not renting a car if you stay here. Minor point- housekeeping showed up half hour early on checkout day- not helpful. Overall a good choice

Amazing stay at Turtle Nest
We had a fantastic experience staying for 6 days at Turtle Nest, a family with 2 boys. Booking was smoothless and Penny, the rental manager was very helpful with her follow up emails. The pictures cant fully cover how beautiful this place is! It is decorated very tastefully. Just imagine super high ceilings with white framed windows and white linen curtains and a fabulous ocean view behind... The apartment is very clean and is stocked with everything you could possibly ask for: starting from cooking oils, sauces, teas and ending with swimming gear and full basket of sun screens and bug repellents. I fell in love with a huge balcony at this place where we sat watching sunrise and sunsets. The closest beach is 3 minutes walk down and seemed popular with guys kiteboarding. If you prefer calm water like we did, it's a short drive to Reggae Beach and bar, where we got complimentary chairs and umbrellas. In the morning hours we had that beach pretty much to ourselves and loved it. We've tried mahi-mahi, ribs, and jerky chicken at the same restaurant and it all was delicious. Mango colada was phenomenal! We've met the owners Gary and Mary - they are just a sweet couple and are very welcoming to their guests. We got super lucky to visit at the same time when Gary was showing the neighbouring island of Nevis to his friends who were visiting from North Carolina. He was nice to include us in the same reservation and planned the entire trip for us, including smooth transportation to different places to see, luxurious lunch, stops for delicious drinks, entertainment for kids and his excellent knowledge as a tour guide. We had a fantastic day with a fun company! At the end of our stay we went to Lobster Fest with live music (amazing performance!) at Reggea Beach and Bar and enjoyed it a lot. If you value the serenity of a tropical nature and appreciate simple and neat getaway versus being in the center of tourists crowds, don't look any further! We highly recommend Turtle Nest for all the comfort and wonderful memories we found here. Come and check, you will love it too! Thank you to Gary and Mary from one grateful family from New Jersey. #Rush Slowly#, #Nevis Nice#))).

An absolutely incredible place - perfect location- felt like home
We stayed here for 5 nights over the July 4th weekend. The house was clean, the kitchen was well appointed- there were board games, tv, snorkling gear, and sunblock readily available. The 2 bedroom unit was located on the second floor and had a huge covered patio- with table and chairs, lounge chairs and a hammock. The views from here were spectacluar and spanned 280 degrees. Down the street is the best local bar on the island- Reggae Beach with fresh seafood, live music, boat and jet ski rentals and a festive bar--- we had a private cabana for 2 of the days and had a lobster dinner in the cabana one of the nights. There is a local farmers market on the nearby Coconut Farm . Where you can get close to local monkeys and a try a great fresh smoothie . It was an amazing experience and we will definitely stay here again on our next visit to St Kitts

Awesome location and hospitality!
My wife and I absolutely loved our week in St. Kitts and what made it even more special is the hospitality we were shown by Gary, Mary, and Penny. They treated us like family from the start and made sure we had everything we would ever need for a wonderful vacation and it doesn’t hurt that the best place to hangout on the island, Reggae Beach, is right down the street. We would definitely (and hopefully will) stay here again the next time we come to St. Kitts!

No help
We did enjoy the location and it was really nice that there was some groceries left for us but we had also shopped and when we went to cook the gas ran out on the stove. We called and texted both owners and neither one of them got back to us. We ended up making breakfast on the bbq. We would have really appreciated a call back at least.

Dear Susan, The owners and I are very happy that you enjoyed your stay at the Turtle Nest Apartment and were pleased with the grocery items we left in the fridge for you. I am extremely sorry about the missed correspondence with the owners when you ran out of propane during your holiday. The owners left the island for a Ross conference in Canada and a very hectic schedule. I am very sorry you did not email and contact me as I live right next door and would have had the 2nd propane back up tank switched on immediately for you! I hope that your daughters wedding was a wonderful event. I was enjoying dinner at the Spice Mill Restaurant myself the same evening and her wedding looked absolutely fantastic.. I do hope you can come back to visit St Kitts in the future and we'd love to offer a discount if you'd like to stay with us again. Sincerely Penny (reservations manager)

Secluded with Great Views of Nevis
The apartment was clean and modern with everything we could ask for. One of the selling points is the view of Nevis from the patio. In February, it was always breezy, but this kept us cool. If you like seclusion, this is the place for you. There are maybe a dozen other homes for neighbors with a few beaches, bars, and restaurants not too far away. You may want to plan for a max of two days of travel to the northern part of the island. Because my son was taking scuba lessons, we traveled north four or five times which got to be a bit much. The trip is 25 minutes to Basseterre. The owner's Reggae Beach Bar is a great hangout and be sure not to miss Salt Plage at sunset.

Thank you Norman for your kind words. It was a pleasure to host you and we are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us! The Spice Mill Restaurant, Pavillion and Salt Plage are all less than 6 minutes drive away and are some of the best places to dine on St Kitts! For those choosing to Scuba Dive we can also recommend Scuba Safaris - a Nevis Dive operator who will pick up at the Reggae Beach Pier a few minutes away so you don't have to drive 25 minutes into Basseterre to go scuba diving. LobsterFest at Reggae is a must on Fridays! We're so happy you enjoyed all of our favourites! Come back soon!

Turtle Nest was part of a perfect vacation
The location is great, so is the view from the huge balcony with comfortable long chairs. There are nice beaches, beach bars and restaurants in the area. I would strongly suggest having a car if you stay at Turtle Beach. The parking is steep yes and it became a running gag each time we went up. The appartement is nice, rooms are clean, so are the bathrooms. Kitchen might need a little update but it’s perfectly fine.

We spent two weeks on St Kitts for Christmas and new Years. We rented this two bedroom unit and a house a short walk up the road. This worked out great for our large group to have two places to stay.

Great location ... peaceful and within near walking distance of beaches. Great views over ocean.
Good sized bedrooms and storage space. Super large shower areas with great power. Loved having washing and drying facilities for clothes. Plenty of fresh bedding and towels including beach towels available. Plenty of outdoor seating and lounging beds . Air conditioning and overhead fans in bedrooms were essential and effective. Great cooker and fridge freezer facilities meant we could stock up for 5 people and not have to go shopping more than 3 times in 2 weeks. Owners left basic provisions for us so we could do breakfast for our first morning which was very nice of them. Gas bbq was great. Lots of other essentials were available too including toiletries and kitchen cleaning and wrapping products. Met the owners who were friendly and we're able to deal with any queries we had immediately. No cleaning or maid service but that was fine for us ... dust bins were emptied twice a week. Driveway is very steep and as we had two cars we parked one in carpark one minute from apartment. On a personal note the kitchen could benefit from air conditioning as the ceiling fan couldn't disperse heat from cooking or boiling the kettle. A dishwasher would have been good to have though we managed perfectly well without. I would suggest some new sharp kitchen knives a teapot and electric kettle as minor improvements and a review of the glassware plates and mugs. Penny the property manager was available via email at every step of the booking and during the holiday and was quick and effective in all her responses ... so a big thank you from all of us. Would I recommend Turtle Nest? Yes I would. We had an incredible 2 weeks and I would recommend reggae beach bar lobster fest on Friday evenings ... coconut farm for fresh fruit veg and artisan bread on Saturday mornings and spice mill for wedding venue and romantic dinner all within a short distance. If you want to trip around the island or do bigger food shops you need a car.

Beautiful, quiet location with some nice perks. Needs updates but generally clean and good.
The deck has a great view, a quiet beach is a 2-minute walk down, there are green vervet monkeys hanging out in the trees (they don't bother you!), and there are several excellent restaurants nearby. The owners also run the Reggae Beach Bar & Grill and offer free sun chairs/umbrellas to the guests of Turtle Nest as a nice perk. The whole process was smooth and the property manager was responsive. There was an islandwide internet outage while we were there, but cable TV worked fine. The apartment is dated and the living space was small, but bedrooms are spacious and have air conditioning. Beds are large and mattresses are very good. Windows need replacement and a few don't have screens, but mostly OK. The bathrooms are nice, and both have excellent showers with good water pressure. All in all, the important things were intact and really the location is wonderful. You have to drive down a 1-mile dirt road with lots of potholes, so consider renting a jeep. But the south side of St. Kitts is amazing and we felt like we had the place to ourselves most of the time!

This is a fantastic place to stay in the quiet area of St. Kitts.
This apartment was amazing. There are two bedrooms with two bathrooms. One bedroom has two queen beds and the other has a king. There's a kitchen and sitting area plus two couches and a television. The balcony is amazing with views of Nevis right across the way. Gary and Mary were wonderful and accommodating. They have a Vonage phone in the house to call home and a local cell phone to use. There are plenty of towels, linens, kitchen items, and air conditioning in both bedrooms. Cockle Shell beach and Regaee Bar and Grill are a two minute drive or fifteen minute walk. I suggest renting a car if you want to drive to the beach and to town. Town is half an hour away. There are no buses that run in the area by the house but there are taxis by cockle shell beach. Be warned that there are only taxis at the beach when there is a cruise ship in town which is only once a week. I will definitely return to this place. It was clean, convenient, and comfortable. Gary and Mary are great. Their restaurant is also incredible.

Very well equipped condo with a nice view of the water. Very clean and comfortable.
Enjoyed our week stay! Warm personal welcome when we arrived. You could literally just take your clothes and arrive at the condo because it is so well stocked with everything you need. The property manager even made sure we had a few necessity food items stocked in the refrigerator when we arrived. Close to some great beaches such as The beach at Shipwreck and Carambola. Also had free beach chairs and umbrellas for us at the beach by Ragae Bar. Saw monkeys everyday coming in and out of the road to the condo and also saw them at Shipwreck which is very close. View of Nevis and the water is lovely from the deck of the condo. It is very private and relaxing. The dirt road to the condo is really rough and it is not well marked so not easy to find but the property manager will give you directions. The people of St. Kitts are very friendly and make you feel so welcomed. The owner also gives you a free phone for international calls and a free phone for local calls. We will definitely return and stay again!

Wonderful time at the Turtle Nest for Spring Break 2017
We are a family of five - three college students, two parents. The Turtle Nest was just the right size for us. The apartment offers a stunning view off the balcony to the ocean. You can spend a day on the chaise lounges on the balcony and just relax taking in the stunning view. A full kitchen, washer and dryer and two large bathrooms were perfect for our family. The family room is comfortable and if there was ever a need to stay in, there are plenty of TV channels and movies as well as board games. You can take a quick walk to the beach which is small, or drive over to one of the many great beach options just minutes from the apartment - Reggae Beach Bar and Grill with chairs, umbrellas and water sports, Majors Bay and Cockleshell Beach. St. Kitts combined with these accommodations provided a wonderful spring break for all of us. We will definitely be back to the Turtle's Nest and to St. Kitts.

So Relaxing!
Location was perfect for our stay in St Kitts, remote yet close to best beaches on the island, Reggae Beach to be exact. Don't miss out on The Spicemill for Dinner, we got lucky and had a full moon over Nevis the night we ate there. Loved our view from the apartment, the cat and dog that came to visit daily and the fridge that was pretty much like home, stocked full of all the necessities! I would suggest renting a jeep or 4 wheel drive for the road out to the apartment, otherwise our stay could not have been more perfect, we so enjoyed St Kitts & Nevis, cant wait to come back and 'Live de Life' & 'Rush Slowly' - Thank you Mary and Gary for sharing your special place.

Great apartment in a great location!
Our family of four stayed at Turtle's Nest apartment for a week in April and absolutely loved our stay here! This quiet apartment is in a beautiful location--much less developed than areas on the northern peninsula yet still within easy reach of great beaches (we found Cockleshell and Sandy Banks to be the best on the island) and also great restaurants. Bedrooms and bathrooms are clean and spacious with plenty of towels and linens and a great washer/dryer. The Wi-Fi works great! The beach right below the apartment (Turtle Beach) is great for snorkeling and hanging out with a beautiful view of Nevis. We enjoyed coffee on the front porch each morning with this gorgeous view. The dock is a great place for star-gazing at night. We saw groups of monkeys several times when walking to the end of the cove. As noted by previous reviewers, the kitchen had some staple food items left behind from previous tenants that were very helpful to have. We cooked dinner in the apartment three nights and ate out 4 nights at some top notch restaurants within a 5-10 minute drive (especially loved Spice Mill). The Reggae Beach Club is an easy 15 minute walk (or 5 minute drive) and a fun place to hang out and dine--don't miss the Friday night Lobsterfest! Delicious. They serve a great lunch and have lots of rentals and activities. The owners, Mary and Gary, are wonderful people and extremely helpful--answering questions, helping with directions, etc. Hard to imagine finding a better place to stay in St. Kitts!

Great place to stay in Turtle Beach
At the outset this property seemed to good to be true, great price for a 1st floor fully furnished 2 bedroom apt with ocean view so I did some more inquires and put down a deposit. Now we're home and wishing we were still in St. Kitts. The property was what was expected and too many positives to list. Bottom line if you want a 2 bedroom, 2 bath rental and don't mind the drive to the southern end of the island away from all the hustle and bustle of the cruise ship crowds, then this place is for you. Full kitchen was very helpful along with the washer and dryer and AC in the bedrooms. Owners of the property (Gary and Mary) were amazing as were their pets; we already miss the company of the black and white cat (forgot its name) and their little dog Gidget. Only negative was the dirt road travel as the road hadn't been graded in some time. You will need a rental car as calling a taxi for going to town for meals or shopping will get expensive unless you plan on eating all your meals in. St. Kitts is a great place to vacation and this property is as advertised; probably can't ask for anything better for the price.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review! We're so happy you enjoyed our apartment! The South East Peninsula Highway has been recently completely resurfaced for a beautiful smooth drive - we're still waiting for the 1 kilometre Turtle Beach dirt road to be grated in the next few weeks, but as you know, "Rush Slowly" is the norm on St Kitts!
