Turtle Inn
Turtle Inn, the stunning vision of renowned filmmaker Francis Ford Coppola, is a hidden jewel nestled along the tranquil beaches of Placencia, Belize. This enchanting luxury resort features 25 exclusive villas and cottages, seamlessly blending Balinese architectural elements with the vibrant colors and textures of Belize’s natural beauty. Each accommodation is tucked away amidst a verdant tropical landscape, ensuring a private and serene haven for every guest.
Located on a slender, 26-mile sandy peninsula, the resort finds itself uniquely situated between the Garifuna village of Seine Bight and the quaint Creole fishing village of Placencia. It’s an authentic representation of the cultural tapestry that Belize has to offer, boasting a serene Caribbean backdrop to the east, adorned with a mosaic of coral cayes and the stunning Belize Barrier Reef, a UNESCO World Heritage site.
In stark contrast to the dynamic marine environment, the placid waters of the Placencia Lagoon stretch out west of Turtle Inn. From here, guests can drink in panoramic vistas of the majestic Maya Mountains and Victoria Peak, offering a perfect spot for a peaceful sunset cocktail.
Southwards, the peninsula is bordered by the Monkey River, a natural watercourse that springs from the Swasey and Bladen rivers flowing from the dense jungle-covered peaks of the Maya Mountains. This river meanders through lush tropical forests, teeming with an array of wildlife, providing guests an opportunity to immerse themselves in Belize’s abundant biodiversity.
The Turtle Inn is a genuine paradise on earth, where guests are invited to indulge in an exotic blend of luxury, cultural richness, and natural splendor. It offers an unmatched experience of relaxation and exploration, whether one is lounging on the pristine beach, diving into the underwater wonders of the Caribbean Sea, or exploring the history-steeped corners of the Belizean jungles.
Not just a vacation destination, but a gateway to the wonders of Belize, Turtle Inn is the epitome of a retreat that promises experiences that transcend the ordinary. This is where seclusion and beauty combine to create a sanctuary of tranquility, where every guest can find their own personal paradise.
