Anniversary get away

We had a great get away at Turtle Shell Key West. The weather didn’t cooperate, as we hoped. The place was small but we were only there for a couple of days so it worked for us.

Great Place

Nice little place to stay within 5 minutes of beach. Property provides beach gear which is a huge help. Only thing you need to bring is your towel. Don’t forget the parking pass if you use it! Would be a good add to the checkout list, as we drove away we remembered and came back
