Eco friendly resort, fun for the whole family

Situated on a fine white sandy beach in a Marine National Reserve, the Turtle Bay is ideal for watersports enthusiasts and beach lovers alike. With superb children's facilities such as the kids club, it is also a firm favourite with families, although the adults only pool offers a little haven of tranquillity. Enjoy delicious buffet meals at the poolside restaurant, or for something extra special, the Blue Turtle restaurant offers romantic candlelit dinners on the beach.

A TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence winner, here friendly service and a laid back atmosphere mean guests want to return year after year.
