Farewell notes from our Guest Register (June/2004)
"Turtle Nest Inn AKA paradise! Everything and everyone was PERFECT! The rooms, the view, the breeze, the dog and cat, the people and the privacy. Thank you for a great wedding anniversary trip. We hope to return and return and return and return some more! Thank you!" N.K., Wincote, Pennsylvania, USA (June 30, 2004)

Glimpses of a beachfront apartment at Turtle Nest Inn.
"We have two regrets for choosing TNI for our stay in Grand Cayman. The first is that we were not able to meet our hosts, Alain and Marleine (though Barbara was an excellent substitute). The second is that our stay had to come to an end. To say we enjoyed ourselves would be an understatemnt. You have taken careful steps to ensure your guests have all the comforts of home. Your inn is clean, comfortable and quiet (except for Mr. Rooster who begins his day at 0300 hours!). We sometimes felt as if we were the only registered guests! You helped make our 25th wedding anniversary a memorable event. We look forward to our next stay and there will be one. God willling, it can be soon. Best wishes for continued success." J.F.&G.F., Ofallon, Illinois, USA (June 30, 2004)
"Easily the best vacation we've ever had; the best place we've ever stayed. There nothing like the ocean view from your bedroom We are already looking forward to our next visit. All the best!" B.H.&P.H., Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA (June 26, 2004)
"We have had a perfectly lovely honeymoon here at

Vitamine too!" J.P.&C.P., Eldorado Springs, Missouri, USA (June

"We had a wonderful vacation here at the inn. Though we did not get to visit with the hosts, Barbara made us feel at home. We made our way around the island and still some of the best snorkeling was right here at the inn.

Everything about your Inn is perfect! From the pool, to the clean and lovely rooms, to your warm hospitality. It's been one of our most relaxing and enjoyable vacations thus far.

And we promise to pass along the great recommendations to friends and family. Thank you again!" A.P.&J.P., Washington, DC, USA (June 19, 2004)
"Thank God for the Internet and ‘Trip Advisor’.
How else would we have found this charming little Inn!!?? I was leery at
first of not staying at a large resort, after all, this was our ten-day
wedding/honeymoon. Turtle Nest Inn certainly did live up to it's highly
touted reputation, and was so clean! (Trust me, I'm a neat freak and it met my
standards!). We really thought the terrace dinner was delicious as well.
Marleine and Alain truly helped us have such a memorable visit.
They were extremely hospitable and knowledgeable of the unadvertized
highlights of the island . Thank you for everything! We are
already planning to come back !! P.S. Vitamine is the most friendly, adorable,
petite cat we ever met!” B.S.&B.S., Akron, Ohio, USA (June 19, 2004)
