Turtle Inn
Guests usually arrive at the remote location on tiny ten-seater planes running from Belize City. Rather than blending into the natural landscape in the popularly favored eco-minimalist style, Turtle Inn’s design is an eclectic visual representation of the owner’s personal travelogue. Indonesian carved sculptures and textiles and Japanese baths accent the inn’s interiors. Mr. Coppola’s penchant for southeast Asian aesthetics extends into the individually furnished Bali-style villas and cottages, which feature unusual details like hand-carved Balinese wooden doors—many of them antiques—and whimsically tiled Japanese bath fixtures. But don’t expect pad thai for dinner: fresh seafood and Italian classics are among the plates du jour at the inn’s casual restaurants.
Boat trips to the nearby Monkey River and scuba excursions to Belize’s own barrier reef are not to be missed. Turtle Inn’s globe-spanning showcase is a feast for the senses, but the peninsula’s natural offerings are worth writing home about too. The sandy white beach at sunset is an ideal spot to soak them up while cracking open a bottle of—yes, you guessed it—Mr. Coppola’s vintage wine.
Please note: There is no air conditioning at Turtle Inn.
How to get there: It’s a 40 minute scheduled flight from Belize International or Belize Municipal Airports to Placencia then a 10 minute overland transfer to Turtle Inn. It takes approximately 3 hours 30 minutes to drive overland to sister property Blancaneaux Lodge. Domestic flights and overland transfers should be pre-booked.
