This was the best place for us to stay during our trip. The Turtles Nest was clean and very nice, and close to downtown. The host made our stay PERFECT and their communication was top tier! We will definitely stay here again. If you are thinking about staying here, do it. You won’t regret it! There is even a fenced in back yard if you are traveling with your fur babies.

Perfect duplex in the heart of downtown Port St Joe. We stayed a few nights with our dogs and the fenced in back yard was amazing for potty breaks. Super close to the restaurants and shops and centrally located for trips to the State Park or Port St Joe Beach.

Great place to stay and vacation spot

Located in the heart of the city, this place was perfect for our fall getaway. The host provided excellent tips on local eateries and attractions. Communication was seamless! The host was responsive and considerate, ensuring our stay was comfortable from start to finish. They were flexible with our early check in as well, which was nice after a long car ride. The pet-friendly policy was a blessing. Our host even left treats for our dog, making it a delightful experience for them as well! Highly recommend staying here and checking out the beautiful area of port St Joe and surrounding areas
