Turtle Beach Resort is a quintessentially Caribbean all-inclusive resort situated along Barbados's lively south coast. This all singing, all dancing hotel lolls perfectly along the shoreline and is ideal for anyone looking for an 'all in one place' type of stay. The hotel's freshwater pools with little islands of palm look as inviting as the coral sands and bath warm waters of Turtle Beach that form part of the resort. And, with it being just a few minute's walk along the coast to the nightlife of Lawrence Gap, you'll be hard pressed not to feel the ambience of the Caribbean morning, noon and night.

The facilities

As you would expect with an all-inclusive, the facilities here are second-to-none. With two tennis courts, a fitness centre and water sports available free of charge, you will need another holiday just to recover from this one. For a spot of total relaxation, pull up a sun lounger by the pool or opt to spend your days rolling out of bed and onto the beach. There is no need to move a muscle as the beach concierge is on hand to pamper you with treats of ice cream and fresh fruit. The staff alone are worth the room rate.

The rooms

All 164 rooms at Turtle Beach Resort are suites and have their own private. Brightly coloured walls and patterned curtains add a little Caribbean flair, whilst cozy bedspreads nurture a feeling of homeliness. Large arched windows ensure the rooms are light and airy and views out to the pool or the ocean make a great early morning wake up call.
