We stayed at the newly named "North Shore Cottages" (formerly Turtle Dove) for a week and it was the most beautiful place we have ever stayed. The cottage was small but perfect for two with a small kitchen and bath with a hot shower. The deck overlooked the most incredible view imaginable. It is secluded, in the hills above Apple... more

My girlfriend and I spent almost two weeks on Tortola - the first 10 days in the Guavaberry Cottage and the last three days in Oleander Cottage - we loved both cottages. The larger cottage and the house both looked great too. The location was perfect, close to the beaches, surfing, restaurants, etc. and the views are incredible! If we... more

My husband and I stayed on Carol's property in April 2007. This is the perfect place for a close couple who wants to get away for a bit. We were in Oleander and as far as I'm concerned I wouldn't change a thing. It is a quaint cottage, but if you're going somewhere with one person, you'd better be comfortable... more

Carol Vanterpool made our Tortola experience memorable. We stayed at Turtle Dove cottages in 1999 and found that her care in maintaining extremely clean, well decorated, comfortable accommodations is evident. And, she provided wireless Internet at our convenience. Turtle Dove Cottages are absolutely our most favorite place to stay in the last ten years. The view, the comfortable ambiance, the... more

This was my second stay with Carol at Turtle Dove Lodge. Last year, I had stayed in the Oleander (see my other review). At that time (Feb 06), Carol had just purchased the Chai House and was in the process of renovating it. Based on what I saw that time, I couldn't wait to come back and rent it. This... more

We honeymooned on Tortola in 2001 and wanted to return for our 5th anniversary. We remembered another couple had stayed at the Turtle Dove and so we looked it up (because it's not listed in 90% of the travel guides). We're so glad we did! Turtle Dove is a small collection of guest cottages built up on the hillside overlooking... more

We stayed at the Flamboyant Cottage from July 20-23, 2005. Upon our arrival, Carol had welcomed us with a bottle of wine in addition to several thoughtful amenities. The view of Long Bay was spectacular and during our brief stay, we were able to catch an awesome sunset. It is best to rent a 4-wheel drive since the road to... more

My husband and I stayed here for a few days on our honeymoon. We enjoyed the seclusion of the cottage and the incredible view off our deck. The cottage is quite small and could definitely use some sprucing up - rather shabby furnishings, mildew in the bathroom, etc. Also, in terms of the bathroom, if you expect complete privacy this... more

My husband and I chartered a boat for 10 days from Tortola. We decided to spend the first few days on the island to decompress from life and get into the island swing of things before picking up the boat. What an amazing place! If you're looking for a sensual place to reconnect with a loved one...this is it. We... more
