    Absolutely loved this place. It was near the beautiful Clifton Beach and a really quiet, peaceful street. I loved walking to the beach and exploring the local parks. The room was super clean and equipped with everything and more I needed. There were details they provided that showed the owners really care about their guests and I felt very looked after. Thanks for a beautiful stay here.

    Would have like some smaller tea/coffee cups. Being older, thought the mat beside the bed would be a danger to slipping on it. But just have to fold up and replace on leaving.

    What sets Sea Turtle apart from others, is the attention to detail and extras added. Beautifully decorated in a turtle theme. Kitchenette had kettle, toaster, fridge, crockery, cutlery, bug spray and cleaning products. Good sized bathroom with rain shower head. In drawers were extras like bandaids, sanitiser, sun screen, Kleenex and facial cleansing pads. We appreciated the treats supplied like biscuits, fruit juice, two types of milk, chocolates, cup of soups, crackers and nut bars. Bed was comfortable and extra blanket available in chest of drawers. As well as a small round table, there was an enclosed deck area to relax on. Easy access to Clifton Beach at end of cul de sac. Beach towels supplied if you wanted to go for a swim . We enjoyed relaxing here after long drives. Only 25 mins from Cairns. Thanks, Tania, Rob and Sandy for making our last night in the area enjoyable.

    Beautifully styled, spotlessly clean with a very comfortable bed. Just minutes away from the beach and a short drive to Palm Cove. We could not fault the property and wished we could have stayed longer.

    Staying in Clifton Beach was such a wonderful experience! The apartment was well-equipped, comfortable, and even better than expected. I especially loved the small details—things like coffee, body wash, and little treats really made a difference. The hosts were incredibly warm and went above and beyond to ensure I had everything I needed. The location is perfect: a peaceful retreat yet within walking distance to Coles, Palm Cove, and the beach. I would absolutely stay here again!

    There are 2 barking dogs on the property, right next to the apartment and they always bark at 7am. Feel like it needs to be noted in the booking description at least.

    Very good location, clean and modern. Had all the necessaries.

    Nothing comes to mind.

    Sea Turtle was a great find, located in a very quiet street in Clifton Beach. It was only a short 5 minute walk through the park to get to Clifton Beach and close enough to the shopping centre for any supplies. The studio unit was very tastefully appointed, with everything catered for and very comfortable bed and nice bathroom. The area is very peaceful and in a cul-de-sac of neighbouring houses, all some distance away. Off street parking is provided. Very clear directions upon arrival and good communication with the co-owner Sandra. Would definitely stay again and recommend to others. Excellent value for money, given the location and high standard of all facilities.

    The fan on the air-conditioning unit wasn't very effective so the room got a bit warm at times. We didn't want to use the air-conditioning unless it was really necessary. A ceiling fan would be good.

    Everything. Quiet spot, easy walk to the beach. 2 minute drive to the shops. Well appointed, very clean, with private courtyard, comfy bed, air conditioning

    We recently stayed at SeaTurtle, and I have to say, it exceeded our expectations in every way. The check-in process was smooth and the host was incredibly responsive, making sure everything was set up for a comfortable stay. The apartment itself was spotless and beautifully decorated, with a blend of modern amenities and cozy touches that made it feel like a home away from home.
