| This hotel fit my needs perfectly. It is in the middle of the town of Atlantic Beach, FL. Restaurants and bars are all just a walk away. The beach is right at your footsteps as well. Very impressed with the hotel and the town. Will return.

| We enjoyed our stay at the Sea Turtle hotel. We had a great ocean view room and the pool was very nice. We enjoyed having an access from the hotel right out to the beautifulocean beach. It was like paradise. Hotel is in a great location to eateries and trendy shops. I would highly recommend this hotel and area.

| the hotel is perfectly situated in a great location in a great very small beach town. i'd definitely go back. the restaurant, for this small town, does have a good variety of items, and tries to be rather creative in their dishes. however, overall, service seemed slow. when we arrived, we had to return after 4p as there were no rooms ready. when i returned at 4p, and again when i checked out, i had to wait a bit as they only had 1 or 2 people at the front desk, and were rather busy. the restaurant staff was also rather light and slow. the biggest problem was repairs on the building which required the swimming pool to be closed. fortunately, with the beach right there, and free lounge chairs, we didn't miss the pool.

| The hoetl is currently under maintenance. Therefore Our Balcony door was closed off, our balcony window would not sty up. ANd finally the Iron in the room didn't work in which room service left us waiting 1 hour before giving us a newer Iron. Also they had a 4 weddings going on in the hotel that weekend and the band music blaired through each floor of the hotel. I would not recommend this hotel unless you get the rooms real cheap and you know what you are getting.

| Great place to stay. Much better area than Jax Beach with better attractions. Saved over $50 a night on Expedia. Great food, good location with shopping and entertainment within walking distance. Nice beach, good food at the hotel and worth every dollar. I stay there atleast 3 times a year. A+++++ value, service, location, and food.

| Great location on the beach but away from other hotels. Good restaurant and within walking distance of others. Friendliest staff we have ever seen, from bellmen to housekeeping to maintenance. Do have to pay for parking in their lot.

| The location of the hotel was wonderful - right on the beach. We were there for a wedding of a friend, which was held on the veranda. It was a great reception with a great view. Our room did not get cleaned by the time we returned at 5pm the next day. The maid knocked on the door and asked if we wanted it made up around 6. By that time we were getting showers and dressed so we just got new towels. Wish the maid would have come by earlier.

| Tried to check in but was told room wasn't clean. Room finally cleaned and allowed to check in but not type of room I reserved. Was told none of that room available for that night but was available for next night. Next day, tried to move into the room type I reserved. Told that wasn't available and could only give me something similar. Then told that room wasn't cleaned yet either. Never saw such a confused operation. Many other people's rooms weren't cleaned by check in time either. I wasn't the only one.

| I found the Sea Turtle to be a hotel in the old grand style, with all services available. The room was a little larger than modern rooms, if a bit threadworn. However, it appeared as if the Sea Turtle was getting serious maintenance attention, and the overall condition should improve in the near future. I am a beach bum and will put up with a slow drive twice a day to stay on the beach. If sand, sun and surf appeals to your soul, I recommend the Sea Turtle. As an added bonus, the area around the Sea Turtle has an open area mall with shops, bars (including micro-breweries) and quality resturants.
