    If you are considering Tortuga Beach Resort for your venue...BOOK IT! This advise comes from a catering manager that handles over 75 weddings a year! You will not find a better venue with better staff, especiually Dante. He is a lifesaver and such a sweetheart; he managed to save our sanity and keep everyone calm by ensuring it all went smoothly. He went above and beyond to ensure our entire stay was perfect. He made sure to contact us prior to our arrival and took the time to walk through with us to ensure everything matched our vision and it did. It was 90+ outside and this man was outside the whole time making sure we were all set up, even driving family members over in the golfcart to the beach pergola. We highly recommend this venue for anyone considering a beach wedding!!

    It is without question that we will be back again and again. Thank you for everything!!!

    We had our wedding here 5/14/16. The whole family stayed at the Tortuga Inn. Our ceremony was on the beach and we had our reception at the pergola. It was more than I had dreamed of. Jordan was my saving grace, since I was planning everything from out of state. Rooms were a little expensive but worth every penny, TRUST ME! Clean rooms, excellent customer service, wedding turned out perfect, and I can't say enough about Jordan. HAVE YOUR WEDDING HERE! You will not regret it.

    My husband and I got married at Tortuga Inn Resort on Anna Maria Island on 2/6/16. This was our first time on the Island. The Island and the Resort were beautiful. Jordan handled our wedding wonderfully and was available for all of our questions. Our studio at the resort was clean and nice. We will definitely be going back and we recommend having your wedding at the Tortuga Inn Resort or just staying for your vacation.

    Originally, my wife and I planned to have a destination wedding in Haiti which is home to the both of us. However, plans fell through and we were running frantic looking for the ideal place to have our beach wedding still. We contacted and visited several places and all came short of our expectations. Then we found Tortuga Inn in Bradenton beach... We did not go over our budget for the wedding nor were there any hidden charges, they worked with us with everything, from our specific setup to the smallest details. The duo at Anna Maria Island Resorts; Jordan and Danté, were amazing! They worked very hard to make sure our wedding was a wonderful experience. From day one, their professionalism made us feel very comfortable and pleased with their promised efforts on making sure that everything would run smoothly. We can't thank the two enough for their efforts. Especislly day of. We can't wait to go back and crash in our favorite room. The place is amazing, the is stunning, very friendly staff. We could not have found a better place to wed.

    We stayed at Tradewinds Resort for our wedding weekend and could not be more satisfied with our time there. Jordan and Dante helped me coordinate the group reservations and were always pleasant and quick to help out with any questions or requests I had. The resort was beautiful; well maintained,cozy and best of all, clean! All our guests couldn't stop talking about how perfect,quaint and beautiful Tradewinds Resort was and also how friendly all the staff was!
    I highly recommend Tradewinds Resort !

    My family has vacationed at Tortuga a few times (and on the island for decades) and I can't give Tortuga Inn and the whole of the Island Resorts staff enough stars. The entire property is gorgeous, and the personnel is so wonderful and accommodating. My husband and I were married in August 2015 at the Tortuga beach, followed by a reception in the Pergola, and a honeymoon on site.

    To be honest, our experience started out a bit rocky in 2014 with planning (but this was due to a previous employee!), so I made sure my review only reflected the incredible service I received specifically from Jordan and Mason after that. As it turns out, there were issues with some of the rooms we had booked for the weekend of the wedding as well as our stay after - Jordan was so apologetic and fixed the mistake right away. He had so much insight into a few other problems we had (monetary and materials) and was the easiest person to work with, even though I'm sure I was anxious at times. The day of our wedding, it stormed pretty bad (as is such with island life), and despite the ceremony being pushed back an hour, everything was ready to go on schedule and I had nothing to worry about.

    The Events Department is one of the best establishments I've had the pleasure of working with. These people truly care about their jobs, the welfare of the bride and groom, and the image they represent behind their company. We will be recommending this group for years to come for all events and vacations. My husband and I can't thank you enough!

    This resort delivered everything expected and were extremely accommodating to my wife and I. I truly applaud there graciousness to not just us but our family, friends and guests on our wedding weekend. They were also knowledgeable and a huge help as my wife and I did not know much about beach weddings. With that said they assisted us with some of our decision making and made things easy for us. My wife and I are very much looking forward to visiting the resort again with our family and friends soon!

    We had our wedding at the Tortuga in May 2014 with excellent service and a gorgeous venue! Teri was outstanding in her event planning support and our guests loved staying at the resort. Pet friendly is a +++ for us too. It was the wedding of our dreams on Anna María's white sand beach with family and friends. I think they even arranged for the perfect sunset! Highly recommend!!!

    Planning a destination wedding can be stressful, but Teri and Katy took a lot of that stress off our shoulders. They did their best to accommodate us every way possible and our wedding was nothing shy of amazing!

    The event planners worked very closely with the bride and her wedding planner. They respond dedicated quickly to email and phone queries. They provided a beautiful venue on the beach with an alternative location in the event of foul weather. The location also served as accommodations for the bride and group, the attendants and all of the overnight guests providing spacious and comfortable rooms.

    We held our wedding and reception on the beach at the Tortuga Inn. Our reception was in their new pergola and it was lovely! The staff took care of everything for us. It was more than we dreamed of. Most of our guests stayed a the Tortuga and they were very impressed with how nice the rooms are.

    Our wedding at Tortuga Inn was amazing! Jordan and his event staff were the nicest, most responsive and usually a step ahead of us and the questions we had. They work with several different vendors and have great relationships with all of them! Everything went as planned and could not have been any smoother! You will not be disappointed in choosing one of their ceremony and reception spots on the beautiful beach of Anna Maria Island!

    We held our destination wedding on Tortuga's beach and reception at the Pergola in April. The convenience factor for the ceremony+reception, accommodations, and island attractions really appealed to us. The event staff worked with our planner and vendors to ensure everything was squared away before the ceremony, making the trip less stressful for us. They also stored items shipped/dropped off prior to the wedding, and after. We had 28 guests, which fit perfectly in the pergola with room for our guests to move about and still have dance space. It was also very convenient for some of our elderly guests to be able to sit in the pergola during the ceremony, instead of in the sun.
    The real highlight, however, was the resort! They were extremely accommodating to us and all of our visiting family and friends. With guests of all ages and needs, they were each able to book rooms that fit their requirements. The service the staff delivered was exceptional! Another big hit was the trolley stop; Everyone enjoyed being able to easily explore the island.
    I'd highly recommend Tortuga for your special event or vacation.

    We had our whole wedding on Tortuga's private beach across the street from the resort in November 2014 and everything was perfect! From the moment my fiance and I stayed at Tortuga and talked with Teri Turner, we knew it was the place for us. We had 90+ people come in from all over (mostly Northeast and CA), and everyone loved staying at the Tortuga, plus that fact that they could walk to the wedding and not worry about driving anywhere. Teri and her team set-up 50+ hanging paper lanterns in the pergola, as well as twinkle lights. It looked beautiful! The day of the wedding we needed heat lamps as it was rainy and chilly and they set them up within 10 minutes of making the call. If you want a beach wedding but want some help navigating the nuances, Teri and team are fantastic to work with.

    We had our wedding at the Tortuga's beachside Pergola. It is a beautiful place. Even with the rain and winds we still had a blast and a beautiful wedding. I fell in the love with the rustic look of the wooden pergola, complete with white twinkle lights hanging from the columns. It was a tight fit for our 75 guests (the maximum that it will hold) but the staff managed to fit us all in perfectly. Considering the weather challenges, even our guests commented on how well they made the seat, table, and dance floor transitions.

    Even with some personnel changes in the event department, Jordan jumped right in and coordinated everything extremely well. We had a fantastic day and this venue is stunning!
