Welcome to Casa Tortuga where everyone has a place to relax and play. Bring your kids, friends, and pets. Splash in the large saltwater pool, chill out on the sun loungers, or host some friendly competition in the game room.

Casa Tortuga has undergone a complete renovation but you may never want to leave the backyard filled with tropical plants, outdoor lounge, alfresco dining under romantic cafe lights, and the extra-large private saltwater pool.

Take a break from the sunshine in one of the many indoor areas designed for comfort, togetherness, and relaxation. The game room boasts ping pong, foosball, darts, and a nostalgic Ms PacMan machine. An open-concept living room, dining room, and kitchen allow you to spread out and still enjoy everyone's company. Watch a movie or the big game on the 75" Roku TV from the oversized leather sectional. Your whole group can gather at the extended dining table lit by a coastal chic chandelier.

Even the essentials are a pleasure at Casa Tortuga in the well-stocked kitchen with smart appliances and quartz countertops. The bedrooms feature Helix mattresses and black out blinds for restful nights. A fourth bedroom can also be used as an office/den depending on your needs. Two full bathrooms with plenty of counter space plus a tub/shower in one and a walk-in shower in the other accommodate a variety of guests.

No matter what brings you to town, Casa Tortuga is the perfect place to enjoy pool days and a great base to explore NE Florida. Beautiful beaches and exceptional golf are only minutes away. History and a fun food scene can be found in any direction. Ask us for recommendations!

Don't forget the pool!

A large, private saltwater pool is the centerpiece of the backyard. There are multiple seating areas to spread out and enjoy the sunshine when you're done taking a dip. The pool is approximately 8' deep at the deep end with multiple ledges around the edge to relax.

Let's eat!

An outdoor dining table with seating for 8 is just outside the living room glass doors with easy access to the kitchen. Cafe lights are on a switch near the door for the ultimate dinner party atmosphere. A propane grill is also provided.

The Neighborhood:

Dolphin Cove is conveniently located at the north end of Ponte Vedra Beach. A1A is the main thoroughfare to travel up and down the beach. In just a short drive (~10 minutes) you can reach Mickler's Landing to access the beach with public parking, bathrooms, and showers. This is one of the best places in NE Florida to hunt for shark's teeth. Heading north, it's an even shorter drive (~5 minutes) to Target and Publix - this grocery store is a regional institution. "Pub Subs" are not to be missed or try our personal favorite: the hot and spicy breaded chicken wings.

Ponte Vedra Beach is just over the line into St. Johns County so you also have easy access to the best of Jacksonville, which makes up the majority of Duval County. The Jax Beaches area is home to an abundance of public beach access, fun restaurants, and delightful shopping. JTB is a major highway running east-west that will quickly take you to Mayo Clinic, the Town Center for more shopping, and help connect you to downtown Jacksonville with more restaurants, culture, and our beloved Jaguars stadium. Travel south down A1A toward St Augustine while catching glimpses of the ocean between beautiful beach homes. Here you can visit the oldest city in the US where the architecture, dining, and shopping (including an excellent outlet mall) are sure to entertain your whole group.

Your Hosts:

We are a family-owned and operated hosting business. Casa Tortuga is a passion project to bring together beautiful, comfortable design with fun amenities in an exceptional location. Our goal is to provide a 5-star experience for guests who want the best of beach town living with the convenience of relaxing and playing right in the backyard. If you have a question about something in the home or need a dinner recommendation we are happy to help. We are just a text or phone call away.

Thank you for booking Casa Tortuga for your next vacation. We are sure you will love this home with all of the heart we've put into it ♥

Family Wedding Weekend and Chill Out Week
We had a family wedding in PVB so my husband and adult kids were with me for an extended weekend and I stayed a few extra days alone to hang out with my sister who lives in Jax. This house was perfect. It was large enough for all five adults over the weekend and completely zen (!) for just me for the last 3 days. Our host truly paid attention to every little detail. This house was immaculate - the beds and furnishings comfortable and the vibe was laid back, beachy and clean. The kitchen had everything I could have possibly asked for - we cooked a couple of large family meals - and we all loved sitting around the pool in the daytime and especially under the patio lights at night. The kids had a ping pong tournament and we all brushed up on our dart-throwing skills. Our stay included Halloween night and the neighborhood threw quite a block party - nice people everywhere - just a fantastic spot. When I had a couple of questions during the week (and also leading into our trip), communications with our host were incredibly prompt - I can't say enough about that - it's stressful planning a big family trip and I appreciated the excellent communication. We hope to have the opportunity to be back to PVB - this home will be our first choice. Highly recommend!

Enjoyed our time
This was a great house for our group of college and high school aged kids plus parents. It was very clean, bright and sunny. The kids loved the game room and pool after a day on the beach. Getting to the beach (10 minutes) plus the hassal of finding parking was the only down side.

Adorable home in convenient location
My family of 5 came for the holiday. The house was very clean and there was plenty of space for everyone. The host was very quick to respond to questions and had the house stocked with everything you could need including beach towels, soap, shampoo, laundry detergent and hair dryers. The backyard is a paradise. Will definitely return!

Perfect House!!
We were in town for a wedding, and this house was absolutely perfect for us. It was my husband and I, our 4 kids, and our daughters fiancé. We had plenty of room, and the accommodations were everything we needed and more. The house is newly renovated and well thought out. Lots of extras, and location is great too. Backyard is beautiful with a lovely pool, but unfortunately, the weather was a bit chilly for pool use this weekend. We instead, made good use of the game room, which was full of many options. My son loved beating me in ping pong repeatedly. My husband who is normally ho-hum about houses, commented several times about what a great house it was. If we're ever in the area again, this definitely will be where we look first!!

Our big family (3 small families in one) was able to comfortably stay at the house, and it had entertainment for everyone (ages <1yr to 70+). The house is also about 10 minutes from Mickler Beach, so ocean access is easy too!

Lovely home in Ponte vedra
I was looking for a home to stay in the area when I go see my sister. This was the first home I came across that was actually renovated and nice and no carpet which is a plus for me. The owner was very friendly and responsive and the house also looks like the house keepers actually clean it. I have stayed in many rental homes for vacation and this is usually not the case. So it was very nice to see that the owner actually cared about the property and kept it up. Will definitely be staying again. Also the owner supplies a lot of amenities like cleaning supplies, coffee, laundry soap. I usually always bring my own so this was a nice touch to not have to run to the store if I needed something.

Paradise in Ponte Vedra
This home has everything one needs for a perfect beach getaway. It was the 5 star of vacation rentals. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and even though it was just the two of us, we still had a ton of fun in the game/arcade room. I had to work some while I was there and was grateful for the mini office which allowed me my own space for conference calls. The pool and landscaping were just as pictured and absolutely perfect for 90 degree days when the beach was just too hot. We loved the close proximity to everything and hope to return again soon.

A Real Tax Break
We had the best time. Every time we thought we needed or wanted something it was already there at the house. It was very much like home. We would suggest railing to enter the pool for kids or seniors or anyone with limited mobility. We loved it and would be happy to go again!
