Turtle Cove Beach Resort - Adults Only Lgbtqia & Allies

If you are after an inclusive LGBT+ resort to stay in that offers beautiful food, stunning beach views and wonderful friendly staff then Turtle Cove is for you. We opted for a beachfront apartment and the extra cost is so worth it, waking up to the Pacific Ocean with palm trees and lush gardens was to die for. Jules and Nathan were amazing hosts as well as Tuile and Georgia who were exceptional ! We also had the pleasure of sampling Chef Jack's food which was divine. Considering we were among the first guests to check in to Turtle Cove after Cyclone Jasper we were blown away (pardon the pun) by everything. Beautiful resort, delicious food and stunning nature...what isn't to love. The staff were simply amazing, could not have done enough for us. Side note- Turtle Cove is situated in the Rainforest so nature will be there in abundance so be sure to be at ease with all things critters because, after all, you are holidaying in their natural habitat.

Amazing time, with all that happened with the Cyclone, Julian, Nathan and the team went above and beyond to make it work, and give us the best experience ever. The resort is stunning, food and drinks delish. New years was so much fun, and we had a blast. Honestly this Queer space is so inclusive and 1 of a kind in Australia. Honestly if you want to have the best time ever, with people that treat you like family, book! This resort has it all 🌈

We had so much fun! Nathan, Jules and Kelvin were just the perfect hosts. Nothing was too much. Laying out on a sun bed on their private beach was perfect. Chef Daniel rustled up great lunches and dinners and the wine selection was varied. There was even a peacock, peahen with their babies all in residence. Many thanks Turtle Cove for a memorable stay.

The resort was fantastic. Clean amenities, friendly and welcoming staff who made sure everyone felt welcome and comfortable. Food was excellent and expertly served. Stunning views from the room and the room we stayed in was comfortable and clean. The management team of Nathan and Jules were very friendly, funny and personable. It was one of the best stays we had and will be returning to relax and enjoy the best resort experience in Australia. Having a safe place that is both peaceful and respectful to cultural safety and broad diversity, where LGBTQI+B/S can be themselves is of such great value and we commend Nathan and Jules for providing this space. 10/10 from us, without hesitation. Thanks for everything! - Dan and Mikey

Moth-riddled curtains. No shower walls that left the bathroom flooded each time you showered. Slow service in the restaurant and prices are very high for mains. Staff friendly but require a great deal more training. Local wildlife are borderline pests….getting precariously close whenever food is around. Rooms were not hygenically clean…filthy under beds and above eye level. Found a couple Huntsman near and around the bathroom.

We recently had 5 days at Turtle Cove , we should have had more . Nathan & Julian are great host & go out of their way to make sure you have a fabulous time . The staff are friendly , professional & always up for a chat . Dinner time is always a good time to meet new friends. We enjoyed our time so much we have rebooked for Easter 2024 .

Secluded resort with beautiful beach. The resort (rooms in particular) is in need of a good renovation, shower has no shower screen and water goes everywhere! Rooms were cleanish, but lots of bugs (to be expected given it’s amongst trees and nature). The staff were friendly on phone during the booking process, however at arrival not so friendly! The resort accommodation, facilities and staff didn’t meet our expectation and we didn’t feel welcome or comfortable. We booked alternative accommodation immediately the next day. Sadly I think the resort is living in yesteryear and really needs a modern makeover.

We stopped by the Turtle Cove resort to grab a drink, check out the property and beach. We ended up booking an impromptu night stay. The staff, room, pool, hot tub and game of pool were all enjoyable! Great stargazing opportunities too.

The location of this resort is absolutely perfect. The beach is clean and almost completely deserted. It is a delight to wake up in this incredible place. However, the accommodation is in dire need of an upgrade. The plumbing in the bathroom is primitive with no shiower screen, so each time you shower, the entire room is flooded. The staff are generally quite rude with little or no customer service skills. Any complaints are met with an argument. The staff tend to join the guests in the hot tub in the evening which seems a little inappropriate. The food is not bad at all. There is no shop or other services for miles around, so bring everything you need like snacks toiletries and sun cream. I would love to return to this amazing location but am put off by the staff and the accommodation.
