"This is not a resort. It is a motel on the beach. We paid over $1000 a night for what was supposed to be a beach front room with no view of the beach. We literally got the worst room in the house and complaints fell on unsympathetic ears. The shower control was missing. The seal for the shower door was falling off and the bathroom is like a phone booth. Lack of pool towels because guests hoard them. Non-guests using the loungers and umbrellas on the beach and even a non-guest woman with a dog at their only picnic table with no one in sight to enforce their policies. Be aware, this resort offers $100 a day day passes, meaning you may not have the facilities YOU paid $1000 a night for. Your only food options are a vending machine with Saran wrapped sandwiches and Pringles. This place does not deserve Marriott resort pricing. What few restaurants there are on the island don't take reservations during peak times, and there is over a 2 hour wait for walk ups. There are simply not enough restaurants for the number of AirB&Bs and hotels. We ended up going inland and still had to wait 30 minutes. Imagine spending $1000 a night for a beach front room and missing the sunset because there was no place to eat near your "resort." As for the island, to call it charming and rustic is a compliment. It's really tacky and low class and way overburdened. It has a nice beach and would be a good day trip, but forget about staying here."

"The pool needed vacuuming. The grounds outside the rooms had weeds growing in the cracks "

"Loved this place! Had no idea of all the fun stores and restaurants right there! Will return!!"

"Garbage cans around the beach area would be helpful. Directions on how to control the ceiling fan and ac. Otherwise all was good. Beatriz at the front desk was amazing!"

"The air conditioner in unit 104 kept making a loud obnoxious buzzing sound and kept us up all night. It wasn’t the normal sound you get with an air conditioner. The best part of the property was the beach. "

"great location and cozy setting "

"The room was adorable, freshly updated. The front desk was super helpful and the location was the best. Only about a mile from Bridge street. The room had a gulf view with beautiful sunsets."

"We love this place, but lots of trouble with check in and multiple issues with key cards for our room over 3 nights."

"There are many different sizes and types of rooms at Tortuga Resort on Anna Maria, so pay close attention to the room description and location. We had a large, condo type room that was great, with a lanai and a view of the bay! The kitchen was large and had everything you needed. Table for six. Everything was clean. There are multiple pools and they have their own beach front, though you do need to cross the street, as you do with most of the resorts on the southern part of the island. Chaise lounges on the beach; plenty of beach towels; umbrellas provided in the rooms; wonderful sunsets; at least four restaurants within walking distance. Pavilion on beach seems wheelchair accessible. Old Florida feel, which I like. We will return!"
