The Turtle Inn is now one of the most unique
and magnificent resorts on the Placencia Peninsula. The Coppolas'
wanted to enhance its unique charm and bring it to the level of
luxury and comfort that guests of the sister propeprty Blancaneaux
Lodge in Mountain Pine Ridge, have come to expect, but in a totally
different style. Rather than the rich Mayan textures, fabrics and
artifacts used at Blancaneaux, Turtle Inn has an almost rustic quality
to it, without sparing any real comfort or luxury! Spending nights
on the beach and witnessing the calming sunsets, Coppola found a
serenity, peace and beauty that reminded him of the Balinese culture.
This became the distinctive style for the treatment of the new Turtle
Inn, with gardens, stones and fabrics of Bali. The Inn has a full
compliment of amenities, including a spa, gift shop, restaurants
and bar, dive shop, and of course, pool and white sand beaches.
Each cottage is nestled in a private garden and features an outdoor
shower, screened porch, private bathroom with a Chinese bath and
a queen-sized bed, Balinese hand-carved doors and decor throughout
and just steps from a beautiful stretch of beach and the Caribbean
Sea. Guests can choose from Poolview, Seaview, Seafront or Honeymoon
cottages.
