Fodor's Expert Review Turtle Nest Inn and Condos

166 Bodden Town Rd., KY1-1601, Cayman Islands

This affordable, intimate, Mediterranean-style seaside inn has roomy one-bedroom apartments and a pool overlooking a narrow beach with good snorkeling. You can find basic supplies some 10 minutes west at a shopping center in Savannah (a rental car is included in rates). The apartments enchant with arcaded balconies, beamed ceilings, black-iron grillwork, vivid throw rugs, and stylish artworks. The two-bedroom condos next door have a washer/dryer and dishwasher. The meticulous attention to detail is exceptional, from the high-thread-count sheets to the basket of suntan lotions in the lobby for forgetful guests. Other nice touches include world phones for rent at cheap fixed rates; complimentary use of kayaks, rafts, and snorkeling gear; and fantastic packages.
