Description
Turtle Inn is a 25-room beachfront hideaway providing a combination of natural wonders and stylish luxury in the Stann Creek district of Belize.
Charming cottages and villas of bleached thatch and native wood mingle with palms and sea grape at Coppola’s exquisite Turtle Inn. Each of the accommodations has beautiful artisan-crafted furnishings and just beyond the private deck white Caribbean sands dissolve into a clear water world of unspoilt coral reefs and bright exotic fish.
Turtle Inn offers three distinct restaurants where one can savour mouthwatering seafood dishes, homegrown fruits and vegetables or pizza from their authentic wood-burning stove. The Turtle Inn also features the Sunset Spa, an open-air Balinese Rice House decorated with painted murals inspired by ancient art and boasts stunning views of the Placencia Lagoon. The spa specialises in Thai massage and only uses locally-sourced organic ingredients for its treatments.
Experience the world’s best salt water fly-fishing or snorkel in miles of untouched barrier reef. Visit the world’s only jaguar reserve or cruise up the Monkey River and observe tropical birds, iguanas, manatees, crocodiles and howler monkeys.
