07.13.2011 · Posted in Accommodations

Intimate and inviting, Turtle Inn makes it easy to settle into the laid-back pace hereabouts. Its 19 cottages and villas are strategically positioned to offer panoramic beach or lush garden views. Each has a private garden (many with outdoor showers) and its own screened porch to ensure seclusion. Such touches inside as hand-carved Balinese doors and lavish baths done in Chinese themes may make guests reluctant to leave their havens.
