White Turtle Villa with a totally new kitchen, total refresh on the pool and other improvements. The presentation is one predominately of a shiny new Villa.
The White Turtle is a secluded two bedroom villa with a private 30 foot pool. It is situated in one of the most beautiful locations in the Caribbean. Tucked away in an exclusive setting in Marigot Bay, it looks out over lush green forest and the bright aqua blue of the Caribbean sea.
The house is a 15 minute walk from the main Marigot marina and neighboring La Bas beach .The villa is reached via a quiet road from the bay, shared with a small number of other private residences and rental properties.
The entire first floor of the White Turtle is designed to create an indoor/outdoor entertaining space, to maximize the stunning sea views from the wrap around terrace.
Folding glass doors open out from the lounge area onto a wide veranda, perfect for enjoying an evening sunset cocktail gazing out at the ocean. Walk along the terrace, overlooking the azure blue swimming pool, and watch the local finches land beside you and chatter for attention.
The bedrooms are located downstairs. The master bedroom redefines luxury, with space to spare. Stretch out on the American super king size four poster bed, and let yourself unwind on super soft 400 thread count designer Egyptian cotton bedlinen, supported by the deluxe memory foam mattress.
Clean white walls, the cool tiled floor, air conditioning and a large ceiling sail fan create a fresh airy feel. Light streams in through the floor to ceiling windows and glass doors that open onto a private garden balcony. Original wall art, created for the White Turtle, coordinates with the aqua color scheme, and complements the dark wood furniture. The large adjoining walk-in closet contains a drinks fridge and guest safe.
The versatile spacious second bedroom can be configured as either one King size or two single beds, Two large closets provide plenty of space for clothing and accessories. Double glass doors open onto a small balcony, from which steps lead down to the main garden and to the pool deck.
The large fully tiled bathroom is a place to relax, with a walk in rainfall shower, separate full length soaking tub, and hand basin topped with a well lit mirror.

Rare White Turtle-Stayed May 2019
White turtles are a rare find and so is St Lucia’s very own White Turtle Villa! This secluded two story home with 3 balconies that all have a breathtaking view of the ocean was an amazing place for my husband and I to celebrate our 2 year anniversary.
I am a stickler for cleanliness and this Villa passed the clean test with flying colors! I was impressed with the upkeep of the house and was pampered with a one day maid and pool cleaning service (I believe these services depends of your length of stay). Nina, the property manager was so attentive and helpful. She showed my husband and I the house, gave us tips about the island and shared activities that took place during our stay. The owners really did think of just about any and everything that a guest would need when renting their home.
The pool was absolutely stunning! The greenery surrounding the pool made for great privacy. I’m not a swimmer, but I couldn’t resist dipping in the pool a few times. My husband on the other hand made a point to utilize the pool everyday! The outdoor shower was a plus. It was very private and spacious.
The bedrooms were on the ground floor which was different for my husband and I, but both rooms stayed nice and cool and we loved sitting out on the deck off the master bedroom in the morning. It was so peaceful with the sound of birds chirping.
The owners left a book with helpful tips of places to eat and things to do.
My husband and I enjoyed the restaurants in Marigot Bay and ventured off to Rodney Bay to the Big Chef Steakhouse...delicious! I’m not huge on eating Indian cuisine; however, Masala Bay in Marigot Bay was one of my all time favorite restaurants in St. Lucia. We had to eat there twice!
My husband and I also experienced a zip line tour and “be a captain for a day” tour. Our tour guides were so friendly and knowledgeable which made both excursions enjoyable!
In our opinion, the only scary part about St. Lucia are the roads. My husband and I rented a Jeep through Island Car (recommendation by the owners). Our drivers were super cool, safe drivers, and informed us about things to do on the island. When it came time for my husband to drive, he didn’t realize that everything was opposite of how we drive where we’re from. The roads tend to be steep and they're what I like to call ditches on the side of the road. After day two my husband was pretty familiar with the car and roads!
To sum up, our trip to St. Lucia was outstanding and the one thing that made it so relaxing was to have the opportunity to stay at the beautiful White Turtle! Without a doubt I would visit again and stay in the same Villa. I strongly recommend you visit the White Turtle too!
