  • Farewell notes from our Guest Register
    June 2009
    • "Wonderful stay at Turtle Nest Inn.  Snorkeling right outside was better out near the breakers.  I saw the biggest Parrotfish ever!  Nice relaxing stay.  Try Chester's  Jerk Chicken, it was lovely.  Thanks Turtle Nest!" C.H.&S.H., Radcliff-on-Tent, Nottingham, UK (June 30, 2009)

    • "We had a wonderful stay!  Best snorkeling on the island.  We will definitely stay here again and will recommend to everyone!  Thank you for a great honeymoon." K.B.&C.B., Long Beach, Mississippi, USA (June 28, 2009)

    • "Thank you for a wonderful stay.  The apartment was perfect, even with just the ocean view.  The snorkeling truly was the best on the island.  This has been the most relaxing and romantic vacation ever.  Can't thank you enough." D.E.&T.E., Tampa, Florida, USA (June 28, 2009)

    • "Our 4th time at the Inn, each time as good as the last.  Lots of relaxing in Apt 8.  Saw some great new birds at Savannah and the Botanic Garden.  We will miss our coconut tree on the beach.  Thanks to Marleine, Alain, Donna, John and Vitamine.  We will be back soon.  Thanks for making Judy's 51st birthday fun!" S.A.&J.B., Houston, Texas, USA (June 27, 2009)

    • "We stayed in Apt 6 for two nights and one night in Apt 4.  We were here for business the 1st couple of nights at the Ritz Carlton and were so happy to leave.  It's much more quiet here and private.  Lovely island, lovely staff, sweet kitties." A.H.&T.G., San Francisco, California, USA (June 27, 2009)

    • "Very comfortable -- very welcoming.  I'd certainly come here again." J.P., Saint Augustine, Florida, USA (June 26, 2009)

    • "What a great wedding we had.  This was the perfect place for my daughter's wedding.  Your hospitality, alacrity, and advice have been invaluable.  Thanks for everything." C.F.&G.S., Los Angeles, California, USA (June 24, 2009)

    • "It has been a lovely, beautiful time here.  We were here for my eldest daughter's wedding -- Alisa -- and have been so delighted with the beautiful views and friendly people at the desk.  Thank you!" H.F., Pacific Palisades, California, USA (June 24, 2009)

    • "A great spot for my friends to get married.  Awesome to wake up so close to the ocean and eat Jerk chicken." B.C., Los Angeles, California, USA (June 23, 2009)

    • "We came so stressed from everyday life and we are leaving so relaxed and happy.  Though we are not happy to leave, we are very thankful that we had the opportunity to stay at Turtle Nest Inn.  We'll take it over Seven Mile Beach any day.  Everyone at Turtle Nest Inn has been wonderful.  No matter what we asked, it was done.  Thank you, thank you, thank you!!" E.M.&S.M., London, Kentucky, USA (June 23, 2009)

    • "We enjoyed our stay so much.  Thank you to Donna and John for being so helpful and friendly.  This place is so beautiful.  Beautiful people as well as a beautiful island.  We hope to return soon!" J.T.&J.T., London, Kentucky, USA (June 21, 2009)

    • "This marked our 2nd visit to TNI to celebrate our 5th anniversary.  It was great to see Marleine and Alain again as well as their pets.  It truly does feel like 'home'.  We are sad to have to leave, but will make plans to return again.  Everything was great.  The housekeeping staff does a wonderful job at maintaining the Inn.  Donna and John were very helpful with anything we needed.  We had a fantastic vacation -- Thank you!" B.S.&B.S., Northfield, Ohio, USA (June 20, 2009)

    • "This is heaven on earth -- our new favorite place to vacation.  Everyone is so friendly and helpful.  TNI can't be beat by any other spot.  Snorkeling is terrific, the pool is great, and the pets make it seem like we're home!  We will be back!" M.J.&K.J., Lubbock, Texas, USA (June 18, 2009)

    • "We truly enjoyed our 6 nights of paradise here at TNI.  It was just like being at home only the ocean was just outside.  We traveled all over this island and had a great time everywhere we went.  Thanks for everything!" P.A.&B.A., Stuart, Virginia, USA (June 18, 2009)

    • "It's been an awesome trip.  I loved it here at TNI and the snorkeling was just breathtaking.  You guys were the sweetest and I can't wait to come back for another vacation stay.  Happy sunshine!" K.V.&A.S., Northridge, California, USA (June 17, 2009)

    • "We had a great experience from beginning to end.  From making reservations to getting to the Inn from the airport to checking in and out.  Such fabulous friendly staff (especially John!) We will certainly be back." G.K.&K.A., Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA (June 17, 2009)

    • "Turtle Nest Inn is the greatest place on the island.  Away from the 'tourists'.  It felt like we were staying at our own home, just with a better view!  Thanks to all the staff that made our stay wonderful!  Keep up the great work." H.K.&J.K., Hollis, New York, USA (June 14, 2009)

    • "What an incredible place to vacation!  We wanted for nothing and have fallen in love with this place.  It's perfect just the way it is!  John and Donna are jewels -- so fun, sweet and accommodating.  Apt 4 was perfect for the view and access to everything -- we are convinced we had the best seat in the house!  We will recommend this to anyone and everyone.  LOVE IT!!!" W.O.&R.O., Bedford, Texas, USA (June 14, 2009)

    • "To the greatest little 'best kept secret' in the Caribbean.  Kari and I had a great time and we thank you for your warmth and hospitality.  We are already kicking ourselves for not staying a second week." M.H.&K.H., Saint Petersburg, Florida, USA (June 13, 2009)

    • "WOW!  Rob and I never relaxed as much as we did on this trip and stay at TNI.  So clean and quiet with fantastic service!  Thanks for everything.  Can't think of much else to say -- too busy listening to the ocean." R.S.&L.S., Las Vegas, Nevada, USA (June 13, 2009)

    • "Dear TNI, we had a fantastic time!  Loved everything about the island.  Thank you!!" E.B.&E.B., San Diego, California, USA (June 12, 2009)

    • "Sitting here watching the waves roll as evening falls on our last night at TNI.  This was our first 'island' experience and it was a memorable one.  TNI lived up to it's billing on TripAdvisor which I thought would be impossible.  Just perfect for us -- much thought has clearly gone into how the place is setup and run.  Thanks to Marleine, Alain, Donna and especially John for all the help and advice -- save perhaps the oxtail!  We found the island from here East and North (East End, Gun Bay, Rum Point etc) to be our favorite area.  Seven Mile Beach is nice but not for us.  Snorkeled for the first time in our 60 plus years -- great stuff.  I think Smith's Cove was our favorite here.  I thought the Stingray bar would be schlocky-touristy, but it was great.  Captain Jimmy with Red Sail out of Rum Point was excellent.  Oddly enough we've finally reached 'island time' -- bit of Zen on our 8th and last night.  Thank you so much." J.F.&M.F., Orrington, Maine, USA (June 10, 2009)

    • "Our first stay here at TNI, hopefully won't be our last!  This was a perfect place to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary vacation.  We have been pleasantly met by every need and luxury we could ever need.  I love the closeness of the pool to the beach  what an awesome place.  Thank you to all the staff that are so extremely friendly and attentive -- and that keep this place so clean!  Thanks for sharing the friendly cats -- it was wonderful taking a nap with Vitamine!  Don't miss Casanova's in Georgetown for a romantic Italian dinner." G.P.&J.P., Goose Creek, South Carolina, USA (June 7, 2009)

    • "Jose (Puerto Rico) and Gerda (South Africa): A beautiful peaceful place with a lovely breeze. ¡Gracias! and thanks for a great stay and great staff!  Next time we would like Vitamine for a sleepover in our apartment." J.L.&G.L., Tempe, Arizona, USA (June 6, 2009)

    • "We could not have chosen a more perfect honeymoon or location to stay for our first trip to the island!  Our apt 8 and the staff, especially John, are very hospitable, cozy and friendly.  TNI is located in the perfect location on the island as everything is within a short drive and away from the crowds.  We plan to come back next year same time and revisit The Lighthouse restaurant, Roland's Garden, Stingray City from Rum Point and our own 'private beach' in Cayman Kai!  Next year we will return with our sister and brother-in-law and Bocce ball to challenge John!  You will not regret TNI or Grand Cayman!  See you soon!" G.C.&R.C., Raleigh, North Carolina, USA (June 6, 2009)

    • "A huge thanks to everyone at TNI for wonderful jobs in taking care of the guests.  We love the privacy and laid back atmosphere.  Apt 6 was great.  Thanks for the cleanliness and the 'here is everything you need'." K.C.&D.C., Hanover, Pennsylvania, USA (June 3, 2009)

    • "Thank you so much for your hospitality.  We loved the privacy and atmosphere at Turtle Nest Inn.  I became an open water scuba diver and I enjoyed many of the dive sites on the island.  I also got engaged." S.P.&M.P., Yorktown Heights, New York, USA (June 3, 2009)

    • "We had a great time.  The apartment was very nice and snorkeling outside the hotel was great.  We will be back.  Thank you for making this trip a very memorable one.  Thanks for the hospitality -- one of the most relaxing vacations we have had." M.S.&D.S., Florence, Alabama, USA (June 1, 2009)
