Tortuga Cottage is Wonderful

We just came back from a week at Tortuga Cottage overlooking Coral Bay April 22-29, 2018. The cottage was perfect mix of quaint, cozy, light, & breezy (no need for AC), beautiful wood and tile, comfortable indoor and outdoor spaces. The deck overlooking Coral Bay provided beautiful views of sunrise and bay activity. After a day of hiking and snorkeling it was fabulous to return to the cottage to cook (or dine at Aqua Bistro at the bottom of the hill) and then slide into the hot tub and gaze at the stars and smell the balmy ocean air. The kitchen had everything needed for those who like to cook. Breakfast out on the deck was the best way to start our day. Grilling on the front porch overlooking the beautiful garden was the perfect way to end the day. The bed & pillows were super comfy. Susan and staff were very helpful from initial inquiry to final checkout. Glad to see the island coming back nicely. The hiking trails were in great shape, and the beaches were beautiful. We visited multiple beaches and saw a wide variety of colorful tropical fish, sea turtles, and some large fish like tarpon and barracuda. The cottage came with great beach umbrellas, beach chairs, beach towels & cooler which we used every day. We love St John and loved staying at Tortuga cottage!
