The Green Turtle Club Resort and Marina
|
Unspoiled. Unhurried.
Undiscovered. Welcome to the Green Turtle Club
Resort and Marina. Located on pristine Green Turtle Cay and home to
crystal clear turquoise waters and tranquil ocean breezes, this
one-of-a-kind island is free from the crime, pollution and crowds
of the mainland offering instead the perfect combination of serene
environment and lavish settings. The getaway you’ve been yearning
for....
Relaxed
Established in 1964, the Green Turtle Club was designed and built
to be in harmony with the colonial charm of Green Turtle Cay and
the nearby town of New Plymouth. With an enviable location close to
some of the world’s finest beaches, the resort sits on a
picturesque harbor inviting visitors to unwind and recharge within
a tropical atmosphere.
Offering boaters and guests the tradition of old English-Bahamian
hospitality, the resort boasts diverse boutique accommodations,
quality service with special attention to detail, and a true
appreciation for the relaxed island lifestyle.
Remarkable
Green Turtle Cay was one of the first islands settled in The
Bahamas in the 1770’s by Revolutionary War Loyalists. It was named
for the many green sea turtles found nesting on our beaches.
Centrally located on this one-by-three-mile island, the Green
Turtle Club is a short golf cart commute from the historic village
of New Plymouth.
Perfect for exploring, this remarkable seaside community offers a
wealth of insight into 18th century island life. The museums,
galleries, shops, and pastelpainted gingerbread homes are uniquely
reminiscent of turn-of-the-century New England. Not to be missed is
the Loyalist Memorial Statue Garden erected in memory of the
founders of Green Turtle
Cay.
