Turtle Cay Resort is a Key West themed resort just across the street from the Atlantic Ocean.
Turtle Cay offers one of the most spacious suites on the Atlantic Avenue beach strip. You will find one of the best collections of outdoor pool options in Virginia Beach. The private courtyard features two outdoor pools (one with a 9ft waterfall), two hot tubs, and a gazebo.
Guests can also access an indoor pool, fitness center, and a rooftop pool at Beach Quarters Resort across from this property.
THE SPACE
This is one of the largest 2BR/2BA units available at any of the VB resorts at almost 1,300 sq ft, so plenty of extra room for families.
The 1BR side has a Full Kitchen, a Dining Table with seating for 4 people, along with a Kitchen Bar with stools, a Queen Sleeper sofa, a Bedroom with King Bed, a large Bathroom with Garden Tub and Walk-in shower, and a large Balcony with table and chairs and a Courtyard / Pool View or a view of Lake Holly on the backside of the property. This unit also has a Washer and Dryer inside your unit.
At the end of each day, gather the family together to enjoy your favorite movie or whip up a quick snack in your fully-equipped Kitchen, which includes Stove, Oven, Microwave, full sized Refrigerator, and Dishwasher.
The 2nd Studio side bedroom features 2 Queen Size beds, a table with 2 chairs, and a Kitchenette with Mini Refrigerator, Microwave, Coffeemaker, and Sink.
This 2BR suite accommodates up to eight (8) people and features a 32â cable TV in each bedroom, and a 42â plasma TV and DVD player in the living room.
Another nice bonus is that the guests at Turtle Cay can also use the outstanding outdoor pools and facilities at Beach Quarters Resort directly across the street. Turtle Cay and Beach Quarters are "sister" properties that share pools and amenities for guests staying at either resort. So you have plenty of swimming and lounging options between the Beach and the multiple pools at Beach Quarters and Turtle Cay.
There are some excellent dining options within a short walking distance from your unit, including the very highly rated Waterman's Surfside Grille located right next door to the property. Or if you want something more casual Roma's New York Style Pizza and Italian is directly across the street located in the Ocean Key Resort building. Mahiâs restaurant is a block away and has a nice outdoor dining / seating area. There are also a number of additional restaurants nearby or located at the Marina / Rudee's Inlet.
During the evenings at or near many restaurants along the boardwalk and surrounding areas you can enjoy live music from various artists and performers.
GUEST ACCESS
This is a Resort Hotel property. So Guests will have their own private unit, but resort amenities (Pools, Hot Tubs, Gym, etc) will be shared with other guests.
OTHER THINGS TO NOTE
- Primary Guest checking in must be at least 21 years of age with a valid ID and credit card for security deposit. Your security deposit will be returned to you after Check Out if you have not made any charges to your room.
- Turtle Cay is professionally managed and operated by Hilton Vacation Club. The Front Desk is staffed 24/7 for Check-In, Check-Out, and is available for any questions, issues, or need for assistance during your stay.
- Please note that once you Check In and get access to your unit, if you encounter any issues or concerns regarding Housekeeping, Maintenance, etcâŠplease contact the Front Desk / Office IMMEDIATELY. The staff members on-site provide the best opportunity to get any concerns resolved in the fastest and most efficient manner.
- You are guaranteed a 2BR/2BA (sleeps 8). However, you are booking a FLOATING Unit Type. So your specific unit location (higher or lower floor, etc) and specific unit view will be determined / finalized at Check In. You may also call the Front Desk ahead of time and request a certain unit location. Although you can never be guaranteed a specific location the Front Desk will usually try to accommodate requests if they can.
- Bedding linens, blankets, pillows are provided, as are bath towels. If you need additional items or want fresh bedding linens or towels during your stay, please contact the Front Desk.
- Although bedding linens, blankets, and pillows are provided, you may want to bring some of your own if you have a favorite pillow or blanket.
- If you plan on using the Sleeper sofa during your stay, I do personally recommend (if possible) bringing sheets, blankets, pillows, maybe even a mattress pad for the Sleeper sofa specifically, which can be turned into a very comfortable extra bed.
- Pool towels are provided for free, and they can be exchanged for fresh ones on an unlimited basis. However, if your family owns and likes the larger beach towels, I recommend bringing them, along with any other Beach Blankets / Chairs / Umbrellas / Equipment you want at the beach. If you donât bring your own Beach Chairs, Umbrellas, Equipment, etc you can rent them on the beach across the street from the facility.
- There is no daily housekeeping provided. However, the Front Desk can provide a vacuum, or broom and dustpan, to use in your unit if you wanted it. A Washer and Dryer is conveniently located inside your unit. If additional housekeeping is desired during your stay it is available for an additional fee scheduled directly with the Front Desk.
- One FREE parking space is provided per unit rental. Additional parking spots are available for an additional fee paid directly at the Front Desk.
- As already mentioned in the listing, Beach Quarters and Turtle Cay are âsisterâ properties and share amenities. That means you can use the pools and amenities at both properties.
- If you or any members of your family enjoys bike riding, I strongly recommend taking your own bikes (if you have the means to do so). Virginia Beach was designed with a special bike path along the Boardwalk to cater to bike riders. It's possible to use bikes as your main means of transportation during the week to travel up and down the Boardwalk, and around town. Remember to take your bike locks so you can lock up your bikes at the bike rack each night.
- There is a Virginia Beach Coupon booklet available pretty much everywhere in vending type machines along Atlantic Ave, including the Front Desk / Lobby at pretty much all the properties in VB. Here you can find some coupons that offer decent discounts on food, entertainment, and equipment purchases (like bike rentals if you are not able to bring your own).
- Once reservations are confirmed, you will be asked for the Name, Address, and Email of the primary Guest who will be Checking In at the Front Desk. This information is required to create your Guest Reservation.
- This is a timeshare resort but attending a presentation or taking a tour is NEVER required.
NEIGHBORHOOD DESCRIPTION
The Virginia Beach Boardwalk and surrounding area is unique among East Coast beach locations because it has many oceanfront, oceanside, marina, and bay dining choices, including many with outdoor seating. There is also live music venues all along the boardwalk in the evenings.
GETTING AROUND
If you like to ride bikes, you can park your car and almost not need it for the week as it is easy to travel the boardwalk on your bike. If you don't bring your own there are bike rental stations up and down the boardwalk.
There is a Virginia Beach trolley that runs up and down Atlantic Boulevard from 40th street down to the Marina below 5th street. This is also an effective way to travel up and down Atlantic Boulevard not needing a car.
