Very pleasant. Friendly hostess who immediately makes you feel at home.
I was pleasantly surprised with the appearance of the unit. Everything is well thought out. There was really nothing missing, from the soft towels in the bathroom and the soft pillows on the bed. The carafe of sweet wine was nice for the cold weather. The milk in the fridge showed that the hostess had travelers in mind. Possibly a heater would have helped with the cold, but I'm sure Wilma would have provided one if I had asked.

Well-equipped self-catering unit with a beautiful view of the sea.
This self-catering unit has everything you need. It has a beautiful view of the sea where you can see the boats coming in and out. It has a nice braai and a patio. Everything is clean and so neat. The extras such as the DStv package, the delicious rusk and nice glass of sherry are all plus points. Would definitely recommend the unit.

Nice resting places. The view and silence are good for recharging. Didn't regret our choice.
Wilma is a very good hostess. The places are very neat and everything you need is there. Squinted at the fishing boats right from the bed. Everything is so convenient! The silence and sea air was just what we needed. We also visited the port and it was really an experience. Will definitely go back to the Tortoise again and would recommend it to anyone. Just want to add the treats are too nice!

Wilma is great, there are so many treats, from chocolates next to your bed, fruit and a bottle of wine on arrival. Little things that make a big difference. There is everything one could need. Up to restaurant menus in a file. Tortoise is spotless.

We were pleasantly surprised with the whole set up and ambiance, really a very peaceful and pleasant resting place if you are going to stay for several days.
Many attractions in the area. Wilma and Okie are two friendly and helpful hosts and made us feel very much at home! We would have preferred a bigger fridge to be installed, especially if you are visiting for a long time but otherwise there was everything you need. We really had a great time for the 10 days in the tranquility of Die Skilpadjie with its charming view! We recommend the place with the greatest peace of mind for a nice and peaceful holiday!

My previous stay in St. Helena Bay put me off a bit to return again. The Turtle made me change my mind and I didn't regret it. The Turtle is beautiful, clean and has everything you need. I loved the sea view. Wilma and Okkie made us feel at home. Okkie can only sleep a little later in the morning, because her fussing has dampened our sleep a bit. I will definitely visit again.

We were in St Helena Bay for the first time, but this is certainly not our last! So grateful we could stay at Die Skilpadjie. Friendly, clean, safe, quiet, nice bed, lovely bathroom facilities and immediately felt welcome. After a long day on the road, from Kuruman, Northern Cape, it was a great treat with its amazing view of the harbour. Will definitely stay here again and highly recommend it.

It's a very neat accommodation for two people with a nice view but not suitable for a long stay for a maximum of two days because provision has not been made to be able to make your own breakfast for example no stove as well as pots and pans only microwave available
In my opinion, the turtle is not suitable for longer stays than a maximum of two nights. It's neat and clean and hospitable owners but no facilities to cook your own food apart from braai. No cupboards to unpack or hang clothes.
