10 / 10Outstanding·Apr 2026
Beautiful stay! We loved the screened in porch and back deck. Condo was nicely laid out and had everything we needed. Cannot say enough about Tortuga properties. Our minor issues and questions were responded to immediately! We hope to be back soon and would stay there again!
10 / 10Outstanding·Mar 2026
Kitchen was well equipped for our needs, with a screened in porch (with ceiling fsn) overlooking water and a large open back porch with comfortable loungers and a round table/chair/umbrella off the main bedroom. Loved that Tortuga Properties purchased and put away all the cold/frozen items I requested and responded quickly to any questions or concerns. I appreciated receiving directions and recommendations for airport/boat transportation in pdf form. Both modes of transportation were early or on time. It is a beautiful island and relaxation was why we were there, both in the pool area or beaches. Ice is available and located at the Safety Harbor Pool for anyone staying in Safety Harbor. The pool had quite a few tables, chairs and lounge chairs. You could sit in shade ir sun; with restrooms. Had lunch (and ice cream) at both Mangoes and Main Stay; cost for a fish taco or burger/fries ran around 15 and was very good. It was just fun to see the clarity of the ocean and see manatees at the docks, starfish and dolphins daily. Unique experience.

Everything we wanted was here. Great property
6 / 10Average·Jun 2026
If you are looking for a no frills, cost effective property with great access to the beach and Safety Harbor Club, this is the place for you. It has been well loved but did the job with only a few hiccups. Most of the issues were only cosmetic (broken bathroom fixtures, pictures off the wall below where they were hanging), but the mites on the stove and coffee maker and a funky odor were the pinch points for me. I am sure the high humidity environment was the source of the smell, but after washing my clothes multiple times, sadly, it came back with us. I should have said something upon arrival but we simply wanted to enjoy our vacation. Upon returning home, I brought these issues to their attention, and they were responsive.
