Though we didn't stay with the Turtleman, we did a tour with him while visiting on our honeymoon and had lunch with his lovely family. Turtleman is the real deal. He knows his stuff inside and out, is a total gentleman and will show you water life that only someone as passionate, experienced and knowledgable as he is can.

My wife and I were very fortunate to spend 3 nights with "The Turtleman" at his house over the water north on Ambergris Caye this past December. I would say the visit far exceeded our expectations! As Greg will quickly highlight with any inquiry, you need to know what you are signing up for. This place is definitely for the... More

By far the best part of my trip to Ambergris. I spent 5 days in San Pedro then 3 days at Turtleman House. Imagine a rustic cabin over the water looking out at the second largest barrier reef in the world. You will feel like you are one with nature. Greg is a great host. He spears dinner every night...

Talk about getting back to the basics of life! This trip was unbelieveable. Greg was a great host and wonderful cook. If you like camping, you'll love this place. It was so relaxing to sit out under the stars and listen to the waves on the reef. Enjoyed snorkeling every day right out our back door! We also fished with... More

If you are looking for a genuine tropical vacation off the beaten track, you will not be disappointed by Turtleman's "house over the water". Our family of 5 (with kids 15, 13, 11) stayed in this rustic house very comfortably and were able to completely "get away". It was a very memorable vacation week. The Smith family's hospitality was delightful.... More

What an experience! We stayed her for 4 nights in December 2011, it was amazing. The turtleman's house is rustic and basic,the house is a homemade 'cabana' with a solarshower system and a seeweed-toilet. you must notice this before you go. For us was this a special stay. We stayed here for 4 nights in our backpacktrip of 3 months... More

Greg and Rosemary are excellent hosts; as mentioned by many, she is a great cook - we ate far better (and cheaper) here than at the resot - and Greg is knowledgeable and can make it fun if there is something in particular you want to do. If not, you are left to do absolutely nothing if you want! Their... More

The Turtleman's House was the perfect vacation spot for my wife and I and our 14-year old son. I don't think there's any better view from a room in all of Belize. The Turtleman and his family made us feel welcome and we hated to leave after 4 nights of blissful time on the beach. Rosemary is a great cook... More

I have traveled to ambergris caye 7 times. I have had incredible moments with nature,but none compare to what I experienced during my stay at Turtleman's house. First of all,it is a good 20 minute boat ride from town. Very remote,very quiet,very basic. I have never seen water so turquoise,or such an abundance of birds and fish,or lush jungle. The... More
