Turtle Nest Inn is a very special place and we are looking forward to visiting again. Thanks again for the use of the cooler and snorkel gear. We had an awesome time!"  C.H.&C.H., Newark, Delaware, USA (June 28, 2008)

  • "We had a lovely stay at Turtle Nest. We were as comfortable here as we would be in our own home. The week flew by. Our only regret is leaving. We are already talking about our return trip. Don't be surprised if our friends and family come to visit." S.F.,P.F.,P.F.&L.F., Wyalusing, Pennsylvania, USA (June 26, 2008)

  • "Thank you for making a wonderful honeymoon possible! We plan on returning for sure!!!" G.B.&M.B., Chico, California, USA (June 23, 2008)

  • "Today is our 9th wedding anniversary and we couldn't have asked for a more wonderful place to celebrate it. I don't think I can say anything more than what others have said about this place. It felt like home the first time I stepped through the door. Hearing the roar of the ocean outside our apartment everyday was amazing. Thursday night dinner was absolutely wonderful! Alain, Marleine, and Donna were welcoming. Alain, we love your sense of humor! God Bless!!" L.W.&R.W., Houston, Texas, USA (June 23, 2008)

  • "We had a really great time here at Turtle Nest Inn! The inn was quiet and comfortable. We enjoyed sitting out by the pool at night watching the stars and sipping on champagne! Next time, we'll definitely stay longer so we can partake in the Thursday night dinner. This was the perfect place to spend my 30th birthday!"  C.P.&K.P., Arlington, Virginia, USA (June 23, 2008)

  • "We had an amazing time! This is undoubtedly the place to stay on the island if you  want the full island experience. Centrally located, we were minutes from Georgetown, Rum Point, the Blow Holes, the best meal we had on the island (at the Lighthouse Restaurant), Botanic Gardens, and so much more. We felt like we were truly part of the Caymanian culture walking on the beach & along the road. Your facility is fabulous! The beautiful scene of the water which took my breath away and every time I entered the lobby was a lovely welcome. The pool, kayaking, housekeeping, snorkeling -- time you took to stop and check to see how we were doing & give suggestions, made the visit personal and memorable. We had never snorkeled before, the 100 yards to amazing snorkeling was incredible! Thank you for all the amenities and personal touches. We'll be back!" D.D.&A.D., Houston, Texas, USA (June 21, 2008)

  • "Beautiful place! The staff is great and dinner was awesome. We hope we can come back again. Thanks for everything." J.P.&A.P., Osage City, Kansas, USA (June 21, 2008)

  • "An awesome place. Wonderful staff that make it most enjoyable. Everyone made us feel comfortable just like at home. Snokeling is great. We will be back." S.B.&L.G., Blairstown, New Jersey, USA (June 18, 2008)

  • "I want to be original but I really can't! Turtle Nest Inn is amazing!  The people here are true salt of the earth, wonderful and great. My husband and I were welcomed in like family. Marleine and Alain are wonderful hosts, warm, helpful and informative. Donna is sincere, charming and a true island beauty. Paulette is a smart, strong woman who knows what she wants. As anyone can see, my husband, Frank and I had a great time! It is  a  comfort to know we are welcome to come back, which we plan to do. Also before I forget, the property, snorkelling, food, car rental and island are like being in a dream. Everything was perfect here and an experience I will never forget. See you next year. Kiss the dog and cats for me. Your friends..." P.V.&F.V., Belleville, New Jersey, USA (June 18, 2008)

  • "Absolutely amazing! Everything we hoped for, and more. I would highly recommend Turtle Nest Inn and we hope to return here very soon. Wish we had more time to stay." A.K.&P.K., Pflugerville, Texas, USA (June 16, 2008)

  • "What a beautiful place. Everything that had been described about this place was true! The people, the land, the surroundings, it all makes it incredible hard to leave! Hopefully, we will return soon, and thank you for such a memorable experience." A.B.&J.B., Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA (June 16, 2008)

  • "I was thinking, it can't be as good as Trip Advisor would lead us to believe! It is! I have to add my praise for a beautiful place away from the frantic crowds! I love it, and the snorkeling was some of the best I've ever done -- lobster, flounder, queen parrotfish, huge snapper that followed us around. Great place! I'll be dreaming about it!" T.K.&D.K., Dunwoody, Georgia, USA (June 15, 2008)

  • "The staff was so friendly and helpful! And it was great we didn't have to bring our own beach towels and fins. We enjoyed the dog and cats. I was less homesick for mine." S.M., Dallas, Texas, USA (June 14, 2008)

  • "Sandy and I were looking for a place on Grand Cayman to spent our 26th anniversary -- Turtle Nest Inn was perfect! While checking the Internet, I was looking for an apartment-hotel or a rental unit where we would have a kitchen and be away from crowds. Our unit had everything we needed, all week. The rental car was perfect for touring. The snorkeling in front is fantastic -- I have photos of the Reef King -- a 4' barracuda, glad he was curious not hungry. He followed us like a dog. We look forward to our next trip to Grand Cayman and will definitely stay at Turtle Nest Inn." D.M.&S.M., Dallas, Texas, USA (June 14, 2008)

  • "We found this place through TripAdvisor.com and chose to stay here because it was rated #1 -- we fully agree! Everyone has been so helpful & sweet. We will definitely be back. We loved walking Blackie & cuddling with Vitamine. Thank you for sharing them with us! When we get home we will write a great review on TripAdvisor. The room was clean and had all the comfort of home, except with a pool, gorgeous views and an ocean footsteps away. Thanks again!" S.L., Portland, Oregon, USA (June 13, 2008)

  • "We had a great time, It is so sad for us to leave today. We plan to return next year, possibly with other family members. The snokeling was great, so was Rum Point and the Turtle Farm." A.B.,B.B.,T.B.&C.B., Evans, Georgia, USA (June 13, 2008)

  • "The snokeling was great, the two large greyfish followed us everywhere. Our daughter spent almost as much time underwater in the pool as she did above the water for the whole trip. Swimming at Rum Point was very kid-friendly and the seabass at the Lighthouse made for a fabulous dinner. All in all, I hope we'll be back soon and stay twice as long."  R.N.,L.N.&L.N., Washingston, DC, USA (June 12, 2008)

  • "How sad to leave, we loved it all -- the snorkeling in front of the Inn was wonderful, just  be patient! Each time we went out we would see something different. The Inn was the best! Wonderful people and oh, so quiet! They had thought of everything we could possibly need. An exceptional vacation spot!" J.F.&N.F., Oak Island, North Corolina, USA (June 11, 2008)

  • "It has been a pleasure staying here again. We enjoy Turtle Nest every year. We'll miss everyone" S.E.&K.E., Austin, Texas, USA (June 9, 2008)

  • "What a treat to start your new ("Guest Comments") book. One simple comment: we didn't stay long enough. One night is not enough! J'espère que nous reviendrons bientôt! Amicalement..." M.F.&B.L., Davis, California, USA (June 9, 2008)

  • "I miss our apartment already (leaving tomorrow)! Everyone at Turtle Nest Inn has been helpful, charming, knowledgeable and kind. The Inn is impeccably appointed, flawlessly kept and breathtakingly beautiful. There are so many photo perfect images that we will carry with us for those 'real-life' moments whin we need a peaceful place to go in our hearts and minds. I turned 54 while at the Inn and while I doubt I will ever have a more memorable birthday, the most important part of the visit for me is that in those 54 years, nearly all my 'holidays or vacations' were to visit family members. While I cherish those visits, they are not the same as a vacation. This time and this place have been healing, uplifting and precious to both of us. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for creating and keeping such an enchanting and special place." R.H.&S.H., Cadiz, Kentucky, USA (June 9, 2008)

  • "I am so happy with my choice to spend my birthday with you guys! The relaxation and solitude were just what I wanted and needed. Everyone was so nice. Thanks Marleine for your dinner recommendations, they were perfect. I will be back to Apt. #3. Until then..." M.B., Los Angeles, California, USA (June 7, 2008)

  • "Just what we needed! A quiet jewel on the coast filled with friendly people (& animals). Such a nice change from the crowds of the large resorts. We can't wait to come back!' M.D.&D.D., Charlotteville, Virgina, USA (June 7, 2008)

  • "We've had the best time at Turtle Nest Inn. The room was lovely and the lacation superb. We had the best snorkeling on the Island right here. The best part though is how welcome you all made us feel. Special thanks to Donna for arranging for us to taste Cayman beef! We hope we can return some day soon. Thanks for everything." L.W.&D.W., Brick, New Jersey, USA (June 6, 2008)

  • "Idyllic spot! Tasteful, chic, unassuming. Just what we were looking for. Keep things the same! J.M.&N.M., Wauseon, Ohio, USA (June 6, 2008)

  • "What a fantastic place to stay! Clean, very friendly and everything imaginable is provided, just like home from home. Am coming back and am only telling friends and family about Turtle Nest. The Ritz...eat your heart out! H.T., Sutton, Surrey, UK (June 6, 2008)

  • "Best little place on the island! Loved the apartment and all staff was incredibly friendly. Will definitely be back! Love it." A.B.&D.B., Hartland, Michigan, USA (June 6, 2008)

  • "Our first time here and definitely not our last. Despite the weather, we enjoyed ourselves immensly! Thank you so much for your hospitality." D.S.&S.S., Washington, DC, USA (June 2, 2008)

  • "We had an excellent experience here at Turtle Nest Inn. The service is top notch and the location is excellent. The staff was always helpful. I enjoyed being away from the busier parts of the island and having some privacy. I would recommend the Inn to all future guests of Grand Cayman. Thanks for everything!" A.M.&R.M., Little Rock, Arkansas, USA (June 1, 2008)
