Great Family Vacation

This property was absolutely for our spring break as a family! It was a great place to launch our explorations of the island, and we loved how close it was to the beach. We got to do lots of snorkeling and kayaking. I was well stocked and had everything we needed.

We couldn't be happier with our stay at Turtle Shell

First off our communication in pre-planning was super quick and super helpful. The place was so cute and comfortable and access to the beach (a spectacular, nearly empty of people beach) was 1 min walk. Spanish Wells is wonderful and we will go back and we would love to stay here again. Thank you Tara and Jody for all the help and for this lovely little gem of a place

We had a great time in Spanish Wells. Turtle Shell cottage was very nice. It had everything we needed. The location is perfect. A short walk down a path leads you to the beautiful beach with beach chairs and nice umbrella covering. The host was very responsive and easy to communicate with. We will definitely rent here again

Second Great Stay

This is my second stay at one of Tara and Jody's properties! The cottages are so colorful, clean, and well decorated on a beautiful stretch of beach. One could not ask for kinder and more helpful hosts. I cannot wait until my third stay. I cannot say enough nice things about the hosts or their properties!!
