Property Description
Welcome to Turtle Creek Inn By The Sea! This is a lovely garden view studio apartment that has a nicely appointed kitchenette with a refrigerator, toaster oven, two-burner cook top and coffee maker. Forbes Hill beach is a 4 minute drive and Tropic of Cancer beach is a 8 minute drive.
The gardens are lush with native trees, fruits and flowers which attract a wide array of birds and butterflies. The property lies on a sweet tidal creek where we have our private dock for kayaking & paddle boarding tours.
.Activities available include world class kayaking, paddle boarding, snorkeling, boating, and beach excursions. We can outsource deep sea fishing charters and bonefish flats fishing excursions.
We are uniquely situated in a location to offer a wide variety of kayaking terrains for all skill levels. There are numerous islands, mangrove marshes and trails surrounded by flats with crystal clear water and an abundance of marine life.
The beaches are a destination in themselves, offering an opportunity to walk, swim, picnic, play, work-out in a natural tidal current, snorkel, or just relax!About pets:No pets allowed.About checkOut:Check out before 11:00 AM.About children:Adults only.High rock walls.About checkIn:Check in after 3:00 PM.About smoking:Smoking is not permitted.About minBookingAge:Minimum age to rent: 20.About events:Events allowed.Maximum event attendees: 8,Pre approval.

Wonderful getaway
Ronda and Stephen were great hosts. The accommodations were clean and just as expected from the reviews. So close to some great snorkeling beaches. Firm bed, air conditioning worked great. Hot water for showers. Filtered water for drinking. Ate at jeans, good burgers.

Great people
Fantastic property. Very quiet, secluded. Direct access to the ocean without being right on it. 20 minute kayak paddle at a relaxed pace and you're there. Rhonda and Steve are very accommodating and down to earth.

Turtle Creek Inn
Amazing small inn tucked away on Little Exuma. The grounds are beautiful with a wonderful garden and deck over looking the mangroves with Moriah Cay in the distance. Perfect location for exploring by kayak. I can't express enough how much I appreciate Ronda and Steve's hospitality.

Like We Were Family Friends
Rhonda and Steve made us feel so welcome and comfortable. She shared her garden, the creek, amazing food and recommendations. The highlight of our trip was kayaking with her, and Steve could not have been more gracious and generous. We can’t wait to come back!
