Great Turtle Villa

Post by texascook »

Do any of you have any experience/knowledge about Great Turtle Villa in Upper Carolina? We will be 4 adult couples and want plenty of comfort and room and a spectacular view. Any info would be greatly appreciated - thank you.

I haven't been inside, but had to pass this villa when we stayed at Satinwood (January 2008) and it looked great and really well maintained. The first thing I did is come home and check it out online and it looks great. I can attest to the fact that the view is spectacular. It's a beautiful, breezy location. I hope that helped at least a little!

...have not stayed at Great Turtle but spent a great vacation at Villa Carolina across the road, very close, as from Google Earth:

The views at that elevation are amazing:

Great Turtle sits on the lower side of the hill from the road and faces (pool area) a bit differently from Villa Carolina. Website pictures look accurate. The road is entirely paved and the location is great for driving quickly to Coral Bay or the northshore beaches. Sorry that I can't help with info on the villa itself.

...wishing you happy villa shopping
