Jus what we needed

A quiet little haven to ourselves, the beach was only occupied by two other people who were staying in the sister property that is located a little further up, but before 10am andafter5pm the beach was ours. We felt completely at ease to carry out our work from the lookout o paradise, we saw some reviews complain about seaweed, but honestly it did not bother us in the slightest as we came to take in the view from our accommodation and swim in the beautiful sea, we feel this place is perfect for a couple who seek serenity in seclusion and enjoy a bit of a relaxed adventure. Read the helpful handbook Ricky put together as it has great tips.

Beautiful piece of paradise!

Wow this property has the most stunning photogenic views! We had an amazing week here, our boys loved snorkelling & swimming, the wildlife provides a lot of entertainment, from turtles to crabs to monkeys we loved watching them all. The property is well managed, the one problem we had (caused by a turtle on the beach!) was fixed with super speed! Good basics in the kitchen which people had left, oil, sauces as well as eggs, bread & water provided initially at the start of our stay. You will need to stock up on the first day or have a car to get to the supermarket in Basseterre regularly as there are no shops nearby. Overall just amazing location, wildlife & beautiful views are well worth the visit!

The perfect self-catering choice

The cottage is delightful and has every facility needed and more. The ambiance is wonderful, with "arty" things all around, mainly marine, showing much flair and love of the property. So much is provided (snorkelling equipment, kayak, you name it!) and Franklyn is available to advise etc. Penny's guidance notes are comprehensive and helpful and she responds immediately to any query. The location is excellent, close to beaches, restaurants of every grade, the car ferry to Nevis etc - and Base Terre (which we loved: unspoilt Caribbean!) is only 20 minutes away. The only (hopefully short term) downside is the horrible sargassum weed which is affecting the whole Caribbean area and which makes using the beach at the cottage difficult, if unpleasant. but there are other clear and pleasant beaches around the corner, so not a major problem. Without the weed you wouldn't want to go anywhere else - a magic place to stay!

Amazing Cottage and Location

Turtle Beach Cottage was an amazing place to stay. We very rarely saw anyone on the beach, and spent hours beach combing, snorkeling or sunbathing on the sun deck. The many decks/balconies offer fantastic views of Nevis and we spent most evening sipping drinks, watching pelicans fish and enjoying the sound of the ocean. The peace and tranquility offered by the cottage was incredible, and meant that we had the most relaxing holiday. We did hire a car for the week we were in St Kitts & Nevis and used it to explore both islands. However, Turtle Beach Cottage was definitely the highlight. Penny was extremely easy to deal with, and all communications were dealt with in quick, friendly and professional manner. Franklin was the perfect host and popped by every day to offer any help or advice. We have already recommended Turtle Beach Cottage to a number of our friends in the UK.

About the host

Hosted by Richard Pereria

Ricky was born and raised on St Kitts and Penny moved from Winnipeg, Canada in 1986. We built our first house at Turtle Beach in 1994 and will always have our 'home' here. Our daughters grew up on Turtle Beach and are now attend University in Canada. Penny and Ricky commute between St Kitts and Winnipeg. We are fortunate to enjoy the most peaceful location on St Kitts.

Why they chose this property

Peaceful location with South facing exposure and refreshing breezes, very quiet beach, great beach combing along the tidal pools and shoreline, fantastic views and amazing snorkelling right out front of the beach cottage.
What else can you ask for in a beach cottage.
We love it.
Turtle Beach is located on the South East Peninsula of
St Kitts which we think is the best part of the island. You will NEVER hear the ongoing NOISE of cars/trucks/motorcycles or experience traffic like the Frigate Bay area. It's all about the sounds of the surf, bird song and nature! 5 minutes drive will take you to some of the islands BEST restaurants and more fabulous beaches. A QUICK water taxi to our neighbouring island of NEVIS will bring you to more great restaurants, history and charm of the Caribbean!
