Beautiful place with an amazing view and so peaceful. Very quiet area and perfect for families. Only issue we had was at check-in but owner was very responsive and readily able to help. We look forward to returning soon!
This home is wonderful! Right on the beach in Secluded Dunes. The beds are so comfy. The furniture was comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked. The washer and dryer are fabulous! Great home!
Stunning property on the beach with beautiful sunset views! Perfect time, not hot and not crowded. Everything we needed, clean, modern and beautifully decorated. Communication with hostess was excellent, definitely plan to visit again!
We had an absolute blast at Surfin’ Turtle! The floor plan was perfect for our group. The kitchen had everything we needed (wine cooler!!) and lots of cabinets for storage. Plenty of parking! Our favorite was the huge patio! It was perfect for morning coffee and mimosas!
We really enjoyed the home’s setting! The view of the Gulf from the the home is spectacular! The home faces due west and the sunsets were amazing! The beach is wide, the sand soft and clean, and a short walk to the north soon takes you to State Park Property and few users. The home was clean and comfortably furnished, the kitchen had everything we needed in the way of equipment. I would definitely stay here again.
Great spot right on the beach, close to the park on the northern end of San Blas. Host is very communicative and check in process was clear and easy. Questions were answered quickly and thoroughly and house is well appointed with many games, cooking utensils, and seating for several family members. Would stay here again.
This was a great house for our family vacation! We love to spend lots of time on the beach hanging out and cooking evening meals for our family. The house was well stocked with pots pans and other cooking essentials. The large pantry allowed us to store plenty of food for the week. The beach views were perfect! We had a small issue with the AC unit. Lori was very quick to respond and address our concerns. We will definitely consider staying here again.
We have stayed on the Cape for 20 years and this might have been our favorite spot! Loved the privacy and unobstructed view of the ocean! The walk from porch to water was one of the shortest we have ever had, and plenty of space for everything. We have never seen so many dolphins! So fun! The communication was great! Very friendly folks to work with. We will definitely be back next year. Already booked with Surfin’ Turtle again!
Beautiful home with incredible view. Kitchen was nicely stocked. Plenty of towels, beach chairs, games etc. (although no beach towels). Communication was great. The beach was just fantastic. My brother and sister in law could not believe how fantastic it was! My only suggestion would be to put addition towel racks or hooks in the bathrooms. Can’t wait to come back!
100% will stay here again.Very clean, very well maintained property.Excellent communication from host/manager.Very private, very quiet location. Everything we could have hoped for.
We had a wonderful stay at Surfin’ Turtle! The property was exactly as described and extremely clean! Location is perfect for privacy and peace on the beach. The host was incredibly responsive and very easy to work with. There are a few restaurants within 10 minutes, as well as the Trading Post for supplies. We look forward to booking here again! I would absolutely recommend the Surfin’ Turtle!
Property was exactly as described. Perfect location and beach/view was amazing. Beds very comfortable, kitchen had everything we needed to cook. Beverage fridge and ice maker were nice to have. My young adult children loved the swim spa. I loved the deck overlooking the beach. Appreciated the beach chairs/umbrella and games. Wonderful week at San Blas!
Surfin Turtle is a beautiful home and most comfortable. It was very clean and welcoming. I have a disabled daughter so the one level living was very accommodating. The owners were very nice and understanding and very easy to communicate with. We will definitely be booking Surfin Turtle again !!
This has a perfect location and the views are AMAZING! I would give this a 10 on views if I could. You feel like your on the stern of a boat with the views from the living room. The house is only about 6 houses from the state park. We pretty much had the beach to ourselves!!
The only cons… the AC could not keep up with the heat. We had record highs and the AC just couldn’t compete in the afternoons. We ended up having to close the hurricane shutters to help cool the house. Thus, losing the views. Also, there needs to be a walkway added to make it more accessible to the beach. It’s extremely steep and in the heat the sand was excruciatingly hot. We had to wear shoes to the beach. The outside does need minor repairs. One of the beds had sand in it upon arrival, but overall the house was clean. The master shower is tiny! However, we don’t go to the beach for the shower so not a deal breaker.
I gave this a 5 mainly because of the views and the beach! They are spectacular!
Everything was as described in the listing. Location was perfect. House was beautiful. Communication was speedy and efficient. Highly recommend for anyone looking to escape the crowds.
Wonderful vacation! Perfect quiet location at the northern end of the cape just steps from the beach! The house was perfect…clean and well equipped and the view was even better than the photos. Lori was very responsive and helpful!
