Peaceful oasis in a great beach town

La Tortuga is an amazing place to relax! We booked here because we had booked a house in another town and our host canceled. We were so glad they did! We wished we could have stayed longer. The staff was amazing right from check-in, when we were welcomed with a drink (fresh fruit juice). The pool was very nice and located next to the very chic and very relaxed restaurant/bar (think lounge music and attentive but unobtrusive service). The beds were comfortable and the A/C worked well. The hotel is a short walk to the beach (~3-5 minutes) but set back enough that it’s quiet and peaceful; we fell asleep to the sound of frogs and never heard our neighbors. The bungalow-style rooms feel secluded and private. We drove an out of the way of our original plan to stay here and did not have a ton of time, so we ate dinner on the beach and didn’t try the restaurant food. We did try the bar, which was excellent.
